    Reviving Biblical Christianity (The Way) Part 2

    Flat Earth Theory

    Yes, wonderful verses that are examples of what our Saviour endured to be our Saviour. I am unsure what connection there is between the temptation of Jesus Christ by the devil, and the title of this thread.

    Flat Earth Theory

    Yes, of course I believe Matthew 4:4: Mat 4:4 But He answered and said, "It is written, 'MAN SHALL NOT LIVE BY BREAD ALONE, BUT BY EVERY WORD THAT PROCEEDS FROM THE MOUTH OF GOD.' "

    Flat Earth Theory

    No, not through intellectual understanding of the sun moon and stars, but through His word. And His word talks of the sun rising and setting.

    Flat Earth Theory

    Tell me this, then, why does the sun rise and set? If the earth is flat, why does the sun gradually disappear over the horizon at sunset, so that halfway through a sunset, we see only half of the sun? Why does it not appear just to get smaller and smaller, the further it is from the observer...

    Flat Earth Theory

    I have agreed with you that AI is not Scripture. So tell me, what is the specific problem with saying that the photographer had to be very high up to take such long-distance shots? Are you trying to say that it is possible for a photographer at sea level to take photos of things hundreds of...

    Flat Earth Theory

    I quoted one AI overview to provide information about how long distance photos were taken. I would have quoted the Bible if it had said anything about how such photographs were taken. Obviously, whatever anyone says about long=distance photographs, whether it is you saying that they exist and...

    Flat Earth Theory

    I do not "trust AI" in the way that I trust the inspired word of God. If somebody was able to show me that the quote I gave from AI was wrong, and give evidence that it was wrong, I would have to believe them. Can anybody prove that God's word is wrong?

    Flat Earth Theory

    God's word does not say that the earth is a circle. I imagine you are thinking of this verse: NKJV Isa 40:22 It is He who sits above the circle of the earth, And its inhabitants are like grasshoppers, Who stretches out the heavens like a curtain, And spreads them out like a tent to dwell in...

    Flat Earth Theory

    I would just stress that I am certainly not putting my trust in globalists/satanists/scientists who are controlled by the "god of this world", but in the word of God which says nothing about the shape of the earth. As for the record distance photos, I have looked them up, and find that both...

    Flat Earth Theory

    Yet we see the sun, the moon and the stars, which are much further away than France. Well, I am sure that, as with other branches of science, there are some astronomers who are Christians. I think those words of Colossians 1:15-18 are true, and a wonderful confirmation of the deity of Jesus...

    Flat Earth Theory

    Three points arise for me from your post. First, if it were possible to see 500 miles away on the earth's surface with specialised equipment, why can't I see France from my living-room window, which looks out over the English Channel on the south coast of England? France is just over a hundred...

    Flat Earth Theory

    How far you can see, apart from depending on the weather conditions, depends on how high you are above sea level. For example, here in the UK, from the top of the white cliffs of Dover, one can easily see France if the weather provides good visibility. From the beach at Dover. one is unlikely...

    Reviving Biblical Christianity (The Way) Part 2

    I am just wondering how somebody can "find an everlasting abode among the righteous" without first seeking God, and coming to Him through the only Saviour, Jesus Christ.

    Texas - Bible back at schools

    I can say "ATM", though I don't say it often as we tend to call them cash points here in the UK.

    Birth of Jesus Christ

    I would only disagree with the word "became." Jesus Christ did not become the Son of God at His baptism. He has always been the Son of God. Mary was told: Luk 1:35 NKJV And the angel answered and said to her, "The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Highest will overshadow...

    Birth of Jesus Christ

    That is fine. I was about to suggest that we brought this discussion to a close myself. Thanks for provoking thought on the matter.

    Birth of Jesus Christ

    I believe that the flight to Egypt took place after the circumcision and Mary's purification. Circumcision took place 8 days after birth. Purification of the mother after a birth took place 33 days after that: Lev 12:2 "Speak to the children of Israel, saying: 'If a woman has conceived, and...

    Birth of Jesus Christ

    Obviously I have not had time yet to "let the story soak in", but I would just answer your final paragraph from Luke's gospel: Luk 2:20 Then the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, as it was told them. Luk 2:21 And when eight days...

    MOTB by itself does not always = LOF ??

    That doesn't fit with my position. The Bible does not say what the mark is. You say that it cannot make sense until we understand what it is. As for the meaning of "all", as I said before, it cannot possibly mean everybody with no exceptions, because in Revelation 20:4 we read of those who...
