    According to Pope Francis all religions are acceptable to God

    Ahh yes, the silver tongue by which the whole world will be deceived according to the scripture. It heralds the close return of Jesus like never before . The message for all believers is, get your house in order....be aware of what constitutes the last movements of Earths history so that the...

    When is Judgment day ?

    The term 'the second resurrection' is not used, it is however referenced by the context. John 5:28-29 Do not marvel at this, for an hour is coming when all who are in the tombs will hear his voice and come out, those who have done good to the resurrection of life, and those who have done...

    When is Judgment day ?

    1. All God's people pre and post the resurrection will receive their reward at their respective resurrection. 2. It is clear from scripture that at least Elijah, Enoch, and Moses are in a glorified state in heaven. Who knows, perhaps there are others, for example those resurrected when Jesus...

    When is Judgment day ?

    The dead just and unjust are dead, or asleep using scriptural language, they are nowhere in literal terms, their person does not exist as anything anywhere....their bodies have gone back to the earth from which it was taken and the life force or the spirit back to God who gave it...there is no...

    When is Judgment day ?

    Firstly, purgatory is not in the Scripture. There are no souls in heaven or hell. All who have died are dead (asleep) All await a resurrection ...either the first or the second. The only exception are those who God has translated like Enoch and Elijah as well as some others. Judgement is...

    The New Covenant

    God surely knows who the 12 tribes are. One thing is certain, it isn't the genetic progeny of those tribes dispersed nor is it those who today call them selves Jews in present day Israel.

    The New Covenant

    oh dear...going around and around and missing the point. Your quotes do not answer the questions of who Israel is in both my posts charity.

    The New Covenant

    Well Charity...you've surprised me. Those 'lost' tribes dispersed thousands of years ago and continually mixed with the nations and others that dispersed them; you could hardly say these folk are Israelites. Their DNA is no longer pure as far as belonging to 'Israel" is concerned particularly...

    The New Covenant

    Ok, let me start from another angle taking it a bite at a time and lets see if we can make some progress. Perhaps we can start with the question of who is and what does Israel consist of. Does it consist of a geographical location in the middle east with bricks and mortar or is it about...

    The New Covenant

    Dear Charity...Yes there are several covenants recorded in the scripture and as said in my previous post they consist of the same covenant repeated to different men. It was given to Adam, to Noah, to Moses etc. The Old Covenant is called so because the message of Salvation was conveyed to people...

    My Lord And Savior Is Not A "SISSIFIED NEEDY JESUS", But HE is a GOD of WRATH!!

    Would it make a difference if I offered scripture? Does offering scripture verses make a difference? Besides, any who are interested need only ask and they would be provided. Unless one is honest, open and willing truth is subjugated to bias and bias is as fickle as the weather forecasts.

    Do you belong to "the [true] Church" (1 Tim 3:15)?, if so, how do you prove it?

    What you don't seem to understand justbyfaith or perhaps it is that you choose to misunderstand is that no one is saying that one is justified by keeping the law....that has been clarified infinitum. By bringing this charge repeatedly, evidence that your ears are stopped to what is actually...

    Do you belong to "the [true] Church" (1 Tim 3:15)?, if so, how do you prove it?

    Well said brakelite! ....I see it his way, the message is going out so that none will have an excuse.....every man and woman at each juncture are casting their vote in their attitude towards God's Law and slowly or not so slowly but surely they are preparing for the time when their irreversible...

    My Lord And Savior Is Not A "SISSIFIED NEEDY JESUS", But HE is a GOD of WRATH!!

    Leave them Jesus said, they are blind guides. I've taken a feather out of that cap. I notice that Jesus didn't engage them in endless dialogue and the reason is obvious.....there is none so blind as he who will not see.

    God's Desire is that All Men be Saved!

    You are thrashing in the straw GISMYS_7 and in so doing blurring the intent of Paul's statement to Timothy. He is saying he does not want any to be lost....that is not to say that people will not be lost; the scripture is quiet clear on this. Clarification is needed so that context remains...

    Body of Christ never mentioned in Revelation, but The Bride is.

    My dear... I believe the chosen of God are from all nations, tongues and people and not the Jews only. Israel is a metaphor for God's people as is Jerusalem, as is the term 'Jew' as Paul verifies. To misunderstand this is to be on the back foot, nay, it is to look in the wrong places for the...

    The New Covenant

    Charity, consider this.....The promise of redemption was given to Adam and his seed. All other promises (covenants) are a reiteration of this same promise. The phenomena of Israel is but a type of God's people called out of Egypt. The tabernacle/temple of Israel is a type. In fact, all the...
