    Who is "James?"

    Don't know where you got all this stuff, but it is wrong! In the lineage in Luke (Josephs lineage) Matthat was Jesus grandfather. In the lineage of Matthew (Mary's) its Matthan

    The problem with the Bible alone!

    Not very confident. Absolutely confident. god was in control when the writings that were to become scripture were being penned. Man may not know what they are doing all the time or in control, but God is.

    The problem with the Bible alone!

    And we can see why trusting in the dogmas, fallibility of men, councils, canons, and teaching is false. Jesdus HImself said His ?Word is above all! Jesus did not say man shall live by councils, but by the ?word of God! It is an attack on Jesus and the innocents when crafty men reinterpret the...

    Postmillenial Partial Preterism...What is it? A Victorious View of the Gospel.

    Those are subfoundations built on the main foundation after Jesus: A belief in the literal,historical, grammatical understanding of Scripture insted of the allegorical method of understanding Scripture. thatr is why the Jews knoew fo an earthly kingdom for Israel, why the apostles asked the...

    Postmillenial Partial Preterism...What is it? A Victorious View of the Gospel.

    Except Peter is talking about stuff on earth- not in eternity-- Fail again because context doesn't matter to you.

    Postmillenial Partial Preterism...What is it? A Victorious View of the Gospel.

    Except that is not what the bible says will happen in the rapture or the great snatching away! 13 But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope. 14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again...

    Postmillenial Partial Preterism...What is it? A Victorious View of the Gospel.

    So you believe Satan is now bound in the abyss and we are living in the allegorical 1,000 years now from th e time Satan was abyssed? Yes or NO.

    Who is "James?"

    There is no Scriptural evidence. The evidence speaks against these being male and female cousins. Matt. 1 clearly and unambiguously shows Mary and Joseph had sex after Jesus was born. Ansd just in case you didn't know, having intercourse can and does produce babies!!! Just remember, Mary,'s...

    Who is "James?"

    YOu cannot see the trees for the forest nor can you see the forest for th etrees. Once last time I will explain this to you. Way back then,m they was no koine word for "in-law" (Peters mother in law was referred to as Peters wifes' mother). sister by marriage was a perfectly good use of...

    Who is "James?"

    Well I do not know if I can do that. Many of these commentors show that adelphos is kinsmen in OT usage. I have no problem with that as I have repeatedly said! YOu have failed to show that any linguistic commentator used adelphos to mean just kinsmen like cousin once in the NT! ESUS' HALF...

    Biblical Mary

    Well it is what you mean by the church. If you are talking the roman Catholic church- it does not have it figured out in many many areas. It is the bible that causes teh chruch to figure it out! Not what churches or individuals write and leave behind to tell future generations how they should...

    Is Christianity about being 'happy'?

    You have it the opposite. Happiness is an emotion and joy is a result of walking rightly with god. Jesus never promised happiness, but He did promise Joy! Well I can be joyful and sorrowful.. I can be joyful though suffering terribly iunn pain (that is nothappy) If you can't see it, you will...

    Is Christianity about being 'happy'?

    Most assuredly it is the flesh, when we are in the Spirit we can only know Joy! Our emotions (soul-psuche) may not be in sync with our spirit (spirit- pneuma) which is why we can be joyful though not happy. we have as a culture equated joy with happiness but the Bible makes a distinction...

    Who is "James?"

    We can keep bouncing over this till the cows come home. all you use is your speculation wiuth little evidence as do I! what you need to prove is that in the NEW TESTAMENT written in koine greek originally and had perfectly good words for cousin, that Matthew meant to write brethren (adelphos)...

    Biblical Mary

    Chrisatianity has been around 2,000 years but I have not! I have been walking with the Lord for only 47 years! The more I learn, the more I realize there is much more to learn! So you do not conjsider yourself part of the church? I certainly do. I may not have that authority as an elder...

    Is Christianity about being 'happy'?

    And I never said happiness was a bad thing! but I can be content with my life and be un happy or happy! I want to be happy, but I want more to have the Lords Joy!

    Is Christianity about being 'happy'?

    I have known great happiness in my life as well as great joy! I havew also known deep sorrow and depression (the emotions opposite happiness) but those negative emlotions did not diminish my joy unless I let them. The can take happiness away, but not joy! I am not pessimistic about...

    Postmillenial Partial Preterism...What is it? A Victorious View of the Gospel.

    Actually it was first promoted by the Apostle Paul in 1 thess. 1:10 1 Thessalonians 1:10 And to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, even Jesus, which delivered us from the wrath to come. the place of torments and the lake of fire are never called the wrath of God in...

    Postmillenial Partial Preterism...What is it? A Victorious View of the Gospel.

    Your ignorance is amazing. This is not a doctrine that shows spiritual days are 1,000 earthly years! but a METAPHOR showing the longsuffering of god with mortal men! That little word "as" in verse 8 lets us explicitly know it is not a literal comparison. but that takes learning grammar and...
