They tell us that God's longsuffering has a limit.

Act 17:31 Because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained Gen 6:3 And the LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years. Heb 9:27 And...

Rich. Young. Ruler. Allegorically as a lesson for us, I read it that he was "rich" in self and his life in the world because he counted everything he was and possessed as his own.....he was "young", as in not yet spiritually mature/perfect.....ruler because he was still mostly on the throne...

I am reading 2 Thessalonians 2. These all go hand in hand together: the falling away, the son of perdition being revealed and the strong delusion....followed not long after by the return of Christ to destroy the son of perdition and judge those who follow him. It is clear from the scripture...

The strong delusion goes hand in hand with the falling away and son of perdition being revealed. So if this happened to the church a long time ago, who was the son of perdition then? And why didn't it finish out the age then, with the day of the Lord and return of Christ?

What is the way everlasting? David was often prophetically speaking of the new covenant to come.....he was very blessed of God to see it.

Sister, what does it mean that He takes away our sin....when I looked it up I saw that there is a sense in which that Greek word means that He "takes it up", "bears" it away.......which agrees with the other scriptures to do with that. I read it as a manner of speaking of a spiritual...

Our God is a consuming fire, and no man can see God and live. That's why in order to live when Christ returns in all His unveiled glory (flaming fire), one needs to be hid in the cleft of the Rock. Now is still the time of longsuffering and grace, but His longsuffering will come to an end one...

Your accusations are way off the mark, as per usual. Well Episkopos, unfortunately "God calling those things which be not as though they are" is an incoherent statement to you. Right along with "Faith is the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen". You are too much...

The parable of the lost son, was a parable. Which means it contains allegory/figures. It is not a lesson about material things.

I think your fall must have been great since you can't grasp the spiritual paradoxes of things in the word of God. Truth is not unreasonable when one is able to understand.

1Co 2:9-14 But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him. But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God. For what...

Really I wish I were done talking to you, but just to inform you and others reading, that not everyone is a reaper (evangelist)........reapers reap what the ploughmen have worked hard for. And it appears you and your friends also don't know that the Lord tells us in His word why people reject...

One thing sister, is when the apostles asked Jesus what will be the sign or your coming, the very first thing Jesus said in answer was to watch out for those who say in His name that they are Christ. I have already seen two or three people say this, quite a long time ago, who were following a...

The dead in Christ will be resurrected........but there is still the matter of "we who are alive and remain" at that time. The Lord will not visit His wrath upon the righteous who know Him.

Right. So the consequence of sin is death, if you wish, though I believe with all my heart that we ought to give the Lord our GOD the glory and fear that is due Him. We have the story Jesus told about the rich man living selfishly, and Lazarus, and how the rich man was in torment after he...

lol. Judgment has been going on with the house of God since the church began....so that we will not be judged (condemned) with the world. This age now is the allegorical thousand years of Christ's reign, which is the time of His longsuffering that we are to account as salvation....meaning THIS...

All who are not written in the book of Life are cast into the lake of fire. There is no book of remembrance in the new testament.

You are speaking absolute nonsense about me, as you so often do. I'll leave you to the Lord.

Except that when I "like" any post of Amigo's it is not for the reason that he sides with me on anything. It is because I agree with him about the ecumenical interfaith phenomena that is not just causing the church to fall away, but IS in itself a falling away/apostasy and dreadful deception...
