    Collapse of the twin towers in 2001. An engineering perspective

    Your justification is not even worthy of a response considering how you belittled my post. You have only demonstrated with this post that your understanding is lacking, Goodbye

    Two Witnesses - A Biblical Perspective

    Since this event is still in our distant future, and I will not see it unfold, determining who or what entity the two witnesses are, has no bearing on what my relationship with God should look like for this present time. What John is telling us that in the distant future, there will be two...

    Collapse of the twin towers in 2001. An engineering perspective

    It seems that the conspiracy theories still flourish. The buildings were designed to withstand an impact of an aeroplane, but they were not designed to resist a prolonged fire that resulted from the full fuel load, of the recently taken off plane. Skyscrapers are all designed to collapse in a...

    Collapse of the twin towers in 2001. An engineering perspective

    The post above, is not an engineering explanation of the mechanism of how the twin towers collapsed. It can be explained quite easily using engineering theory and even explaining the explosive type sounds that were heard as each floor pancaked downwards. I have previously provided an...

    From another thread: - “One of the reasons that the church has so little influence over the world, is because the world has so much influence over the church.” – C.H. Spurgeon

    QUOTE for the day

    From another thread: - “To me it is unthinkable that we become enemies of the very people we seek to win to Christ, our potential brothers and sisters in the Lord.” - (John MacArthur, Why Government Can’t Save You, p. 14)

    Poll. Will we be judged when we die?

    The last line above should be understood in this manner: - "but has passed from being a candidate for the second death to receiving eternal life."

    Chosen people

    Hello At present God is moving the chest pieces on the board and when the Kings of the earth are judged at Armageddon as Paul foretells us in Romans 11:25b-26, then God will begin gathering Israel to Himself and will plant them in His fertile soil, where they are living scattered throughout the...

    The happy thread was dead. Long live the happy thread!

    But I was replying tongue in cheek.

    Poll. Will we be judged when we die?

    We, the "church,' are being judged by those who live around us because we do not live up to our own exaggerated hype.

    @Angelina, that is what happens when you do not honour the boundary conditions of the line of credit that was wanted for your personal benefit to be able to live a life beyond your means.

    A WAR IS COMING, BUT IT WON’T BE FOUGHT ON EARTH.

    If you say so, but the war in heaven started in the first century and it is continuing even now and from my study of the prophetic scriptures it will end with the gathering of the kings of the earth at Armageddon when the Isaiah 24:21-22 prophecy comes into effect. The prince, who God stated...

    QUOTE for the day

    From another thread: - “Important events in politics transpired in the apostle’s day, but I cannot remember an allusion to them. Great social problems were to be solved, but his one and only solution was the preaching of the great Saviour who is to cleanse the Augean stables of the world. For...

    Two Witnesses - A Biblical Perspective

    Yes, it is a good example of the misinterpretation of the Greek Root word G:4578 which I understand to have the meaning of Turmoil. In every occurrence of Greek words with the embedded Greek Root word G:4578 occurring, I believe that the correct translation should be turmoil. Have you ever...

    A WAR IS COMING, BUT IT WON’T BE FOUGHT ON EARTH.

    Ussher's premise was that there were four days of the Lord which translates to a 4,000-year period and since he believed that Chrit was born in the year 4 BC, then the year should be 4,004 BC. Ussher was using Peter's statement that a day of the lord was equal to a 1,000 year period. I on the...

    Two Witnesses - A Biblical Perspective

    How important is it to determine the entity types of the two witnesses? I do not believe that knowing the entity of the two witnesses changes the message of this chapter. The chapter ends with the killing of 7,000 soles during the resulting turmoil in the city of Jerusalem. The message is...

    A WAR IS COMING, BUT IT WON’T BE FOUGHT ON EARTH.

    Daniel 9:26b states this fact: - Daniel 9:26b: - Fifth Prophecy [1] And the people of the prince who is to come Shall destroy the city and the sanctuary. The end of it shall be with a flood, And till the end of the war desolations are determined. The...

    Two Witnesses - A Biblical Perspective

    We should be careful to discover a forest of camouflage and miss seeing the two images of the messages overpowered by the deluge of peoples fanaticise as to who they are, and what their entity types might be. Shalom

    A WAR IS COMING, BUT IT WON’T BE FOUGHT ON EARTH.

    He started with the premise that Adam was created in the year 4004 BC in the month of ???? on the day ??? He also assumed that an age/generation had a duration of just 1,000 years. Using the chronological years as to when the patriarchs' births took place coupled with the time given between...
