@ScottA I posted my response in the wrong in the wrong thread, my mistake.

I’ve seen that verse misused so many times. John was talking about a specific group of Jewish opponents during his day. It wasn't meant to be a condemnation all or some Jews living today. The whole world is under the control of the evil one (1 John 5:19). Both Satan and the world are in...

And does God not use men to accomplish His will on earth? God used Joseph's brothers evil intentions to get Joseph into position to save Israel from feminine. He used the Persians and King Cyrus to return the Jews home from their Babylonian exile. God can use whomever He wants for His express...

"True" Israel is a modern, contrived term not found in Scripture. So, let's think about this logically. If God did not want the modern state of Israel to exist, would it? If it is a Satanic invention, why is the whole world against it? Is Satan not the god of this world (2Co 4:4)? If so, then...

Sounds like you're talking about the Khazar theory. I have addressed that before here. These accusations are always wrapped in conspiracy theories. But how do you know any of it is true? Perhaps some I could believe, but not others.

What evidence do you have of that?

A lot better than Muslims, that's for sure.

It is the view of restorationists. Most of the Jewish religious groups in the first century AD believed the soul survived death, including the Pharisees, Christians, and Essenes. The only one that didn't was the Sadducees, but they didn't believe in a resurrection or a spirit world either. The...

It's not science fiction; even science makes allowances for extra dimensions. String theory requires 10 or 11 dimensions to work. I don't think it necessarily has to have a supernatural explanation, which is really just a catchphrase to try and explain the unexplainable. There are plausible...

But is that rejection forever? I don't believe that is what the Scripture tells us. To the contrary, Romans 11:26 says that all Israel will be saved. Your eschatology and theology are obviously different from mine, which distorts your views of Israel/Jews. When John mentioned the synagogue of...

There are plenty of scriptures that speak of a regathering of Israel in the latter days and a nation being born in a day. No one can deny that has happened. And if Israel didn't have God's blessing, how have they not only survived but thrived despite being surrounded by enemies and the world...

That goes both ways, and saying the same thing over and over again doesn't make something true. That's an opinion, but science has yet to prove it. At best they can map brain activity, but that only shows there's a relationship between the brain and consciousness. The hard problem of...

I don't see that connection. The seeds of Communism were born out of the so-called Age of Enlightenment philosophers, who rejected God. If you read the writings of Karl Marx, they sound more like Satanism than anything else (read The Devil and Karl Marx). The Jews who embraced Communism were...

The spiritual/Information views can overlap. The latter would merely explain how the former works. I have likewise hypothesized that the brain acts as an antenna or interface for the consciousness, which exists elsewhere, possibly in a fourth dimensional space unobservable to us. Then Jesus...

Let me guess, it's the jooooz!

How has history repeated itself? Unlike previous administrations, Trump didn't put any boots on the ground, and there aren't 1000s of body bags arriving back in the US.

What should we be, isolationists? I guarantee our enemies and adversaries would gladly fill the void. It comes from U.S. intelligence, the DOJ, the FBI. Do your own research. So, you hate your own country. Got it. There's a big difference between an accident and intentionally killing...

They used to cast lots in the bible, which is a form of gambling. So, like drinking, it's not something that is expressly prohibited. Getting into overindulgence though could certainly lead to sin. Some people avoid them altogether because it's easy to fall into excess.

Well, let's see. Since the Iranian revolution, they took 66 American hostages in 1979. They were involved in the Khobar Towers bombing in 1996 that killed 19 U.S. Air Force personnel. They took 10 US Navy sailors hostage in 2016. They shot a US drone down over the Strait of Hormuz in 2019. They...

"Then the LORD will scatter you among all peoples, from one end of the earth to the other, and there you shall serve other gods, which neither you nor your fathers have known--wood and stone. And among those nations you shall find no rest, nor shall the sole of your foot have a resting place...
