    Who considers that a heremeutical mistake and what is there authority to say so? But if you want to use Corinthians OK! 2 Corinthians 5:8 We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord. When we are absent from the body, we are present...

    Bible alone?

    I believe in divine REvelation as well, but none of it holds the saem authority as Scripture! I take it you are catholic, so let me ask you , do you believe these are divine revelations? Mary as co-redeemer, Queen of Heaven, sinless, ever virgin, co mediator with Jesus? Purgatory,Limbo...

    You are awful busy. I will try to get to all your posts today! First. nations is ethnos which is simply people. In the Bible there are only three people groups recognized After Israel was born, Jews, Gentiles, The Body of Christ. So this gathering is a gathering of peoples, from all lands...

    Bible alone?

    Don't get me wrong- I am not against the office of pastor/teacher! I am very very much for it! It is a gift ministry for the church so that the church may mature. I agree we must be taught by the apostles doctrine. And as far as their successors, as long as their teaching conforms to...

    Well we are in the mystery form of the kingdom now! but as for now? The two things that Sripture says Jesus is busy doing are these: John 14 King James Version 14 Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. 2 In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not...

    No I and I am surprised you find a disconnect. Please quote the posts where I called them fanatical and deceptive OK? Please quote the post # where I called you deceptive or else repent of your bearing false witness. Now He is bringing Israel into the one body of Christ. But after the...

    Bible alone?

    YOu should have read the fine print of the great commission! 19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even...

    Where’s the rapture in the Bible?

    Not assertion, but fact! that is your problem to solve. Much relevance Well who are they? I did not see you credit these authors. It appears you wish not to learn anything of substance that may rock your boat. No I don't know of many pre-tribbers who are "high" in the church who cannot...

    How They're Brainwashing You 2 Think Cringey Biden beating Trump is Legit

    My bad. My fingers ran ahead of my brain! I meant to vote for Biden was a vote for one who supports the murder of children and approving marriages God doesn't recognize and calls an abomination. Sorry.

    Where’s the rapture in the Bible?

    So you believe timtofly and his hypothesis? Okay then. And you making the arrogant assumption I refuse Scripture just makes you a presumptious, misinformed empty cloud. Sorry.

    Bible alone?

    Your problem is you force the church to either be a hierarchy or anarchy. It is neither! It is the living body of Christ where all are equal in Christ! There are gift ministries that help mature the saints for the work of the ministry, but they are servants according to scriptures, not...

    Bible alone?

    YOu are incorrect: know (eido) is: Speech: Verb Tense: Perfect Voice: Active Mood: Subjunctive Person: 2nd Person Number: Plural And the perfect does show a completed finished action: In Greek corresponds to the perfect tense in English, and describes an action which is viewed as...

    Naomi25 said: ↑ My third flaw, as I see it, is 1 Cor 15:20-28 and 50-55. I think this passage marks a serious problem with the timing of Dispensational flow. QUOTE] Well let us answer these verses and your explanation last to first. Rev. 20:11-15 This is by implication the second...

    Well that is a sad use of language! For the rapture is its own event and no tthe second coming of Jesus. The 2nd Coming occurs at the end of the 7 year tribulation period! It is a colloquial use of the word coming (I know many say that at teh rapture Jesus comes for His church and at His...

    No, we both agree in the imagery of Scripture. But where allegorists go off and why is beyond my understanding. Yes and we believe that all biblical imagery and symbolism is defined by Scripture itself. Where we differ is what it means. And not knowing you I do not know you rposition on the...

    Well I discount your comments because you love to highlight the gants (like my mis-spelling) 1. No He said He would be with us to the end of teh age. But during the tribulation time- the nature of teh gospel repsented changes than what we preach now! 2. If God promises to deliver us from the...

    Where’s the rapture in the Bible?

    Well this is a new position added to teh thousands! But the first seal is a king going out to conquer? You say the seals began Oct. 2019. Where is the ruler going out to conquer? Or teh seal to take peace from teh earth? or the seal opened which produces global famine ? or the seal that ends...

    Where’s the rapture in the Bible?

    Well you are conflating teh return of Jesus with the Rapture. They are 2 separate events and the rapture is not a "coming" or return of Jesus! When you add it to the physical return of Jesus as an event that happens while Jesus is on his way down it is. Yes we go from corruptible to...
