    Jesus Is Our Truth, Reward, And Faithfulness So We Can Lie, Steal, and Fornicate?

    See my answer to your other similar question above. the ten commandmnets as Paul said are a ministry of death- why would you want to live under a ministry of condemnation?

    Jesus Is Our Truth, Reward, And Faithfulness So We Can Lie, Steal, and Fornicate?

    As part of the MOsaic Law and the reasons they were given in the Mosaic Law? NO NO NO But as part of living righteously we do have 9 of the 10 that were carried over into the law of Christ.

    About the Signs of the Second Coming of Jesus

    No history does not mess with my theology (actually the bible). Yeah the dates were done much later on but that means nothing! You are just avoiding realizing that you have the 69th week : 25 Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build...

    John 3 - Born of Water and Spirit

    Well then do some research and find out that whatever you think doesn't matter. It was an old idiom used to describe natural birth. See Jesus said natural birth was not enough (born of water, born of flesh) He was doing all you said. Just without all the mystical metaphors well meaning but...

    Jesus Is Our Truth, Reward, And Faithfulness So We Can Lie, Steal, and Fornicate?

    Well thyen show prio0r to Moses receiving them, that god issued these ten commandments. But Paul, being the good Jewish Christian he was had a very low opinion of the ten commandments: 2 Corinthians 3:6-11 King James Version 6 Who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament; not of...

    About the Signs of the Second Coming of Jesus

    Your arrogance and judgmental attitude towards your brethren is saddening. You are referring to Antiochus Epiphanes. He sprang from one of the four diadocha. He is the little horn that sprang from one of the four horns from the notable horn (Alexander) YOu make a big deal of the demise of the...

    John 3 - Born of Water and Spirit

    That is your privilege. But in ancient Jewish teaching- a gentile who converted was considered born again. Not on the way we of the church age understand born again- butr born again nonetheless.

    John 3 - Born of Water and Spirit

    Yes water is a metaphor when it is used as a metaphor- Here it is not. Jesus clearly said 2 births were needed. Natural and spiritual. He further defines it in the next verse as saying that which is born of the flesh (water) is flesh and that which is born of the spirit....

    John 3 - Born of Water and Spirit

    I never said any OT baptisms were born again experiences. I don't believe or teach that. That is a jump to a wrong conclusion. Well I used the word as used today, but in ancient Israel it was called "teacher of Israel, or rabbi of rabbis. In Jesus day there were three , Hillel, Nicodemus...

    About the Signs of the Second Coming of Jesus

    Now you have added a 2300 years? You have yet to give a brief synopsis of you rfour Jewish age hypothesis. It is not a JW or SDA teaching. It is historical fact. Luke 21:24 And they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be...

    John 3 - Born of Water and Spirit

    No He is not! 4 Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born? 5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. 6 That...

    John 3 - Born of Water and Spirit

    You implied it by saying the water birth is the word of God! Jesus said we must have two births- one of water and one of the spirit! One birth in the flesh and one birth in the spirit. so if you demand the water birth is birth ion the Word of god the construct of Jesus statement is two born...
