    What is Mystery Babylon?

    I interpret "hot" as inspired by the Lord, hungry for His Word, seeking Him earnestly. I see "cold" as uninterested, lack of motivation, complacent, but also unloving. I see the rich Laodiceans, in need of nothing as not really evil but not really doing much good for anybody but themselves. They...

    What is Mystery Babylon?

    Head in the sand? Oh, and you are on the higher walk -- in the clouds? We are all sinners and have done the same things as the unbelievers. What's the difference? We have been forgiven and follow Christ AND soon will be taken out of the world. Trip and fall we may, but as my Pastor used to say...

    What is Mystery Babylon?

    Satan certainly reigns over the unbelievers confusion and the false religions outside of Christianity, atheism, occult etc. Btw, we aren't building His Kingdom, He is. He let's us participate, but His will, His perfect plan, is done and always has been done and will be done as He ordained it so...

    What is Mystery Babylon?

    Oh I think Jesus is very precise when it comes to who is in charge, where and how long and all current events are under His authority. Romans 13:1 Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by...

    What is Mystery Babylon?

    Sorry about your Dad. Strokes happen to people of all ages. Our bodies fall apart as we get closer to death. It may sound like a coincidence, that the vaccines caused the stroke, but I don't think so. The Covid vaccine causes blood clots and that is a fact. My 18 year old nephew had a blog clot...

    What is Mystery Babylon?

    Thanks for getting this thread back on track , we'll maybe. As I also brought to the attention of Episkopos in posts #69 & # 82, BABYLON IS THE EVIL WORLD SYSTEM composed of all false religions, philosophies, the occult, Astrology, all generated out of that ancient city, Babylon. When God...

    What is Mystery Babylon?

    Did not say that. Discern that the Spiritual Body of Christ, those who have been washed by His blood, born again, are the Church. Sin has been forgiven. He predestined us, called us, justified us, gave us the gift of eternal life and will glorify us. It seems you are obsessed with sin that has...

    What is Mystery Babylon?

    Your "sermon" on Mystery Babylon is FALSE, in that it wrongly portrays a mysterious aberration and disfunction in the Church. It has absolutely nothing to do with the Church - which is the Body of Christ. You claim that this Mystery Babylon began in 325 AD, with the Council of Nicea, with false...

    Irrefutable biblical proof that death is abolished at the second coming

    Really? WPM (Without Perception or Meaning) cannot discern that in Rev. 7:9, "a great multitude which no one could number, of all nations, tribes, peoples, and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, with palm branches in their hands, 10 and crying out...

    Irrefutable biblical proof that death is abolished at the second coming

    Getting tired of spoon feeding you. Go back and look again. 2 places. Rev. 7:9 & Rev. 11:15. Same event, two different vantage points. You need to come out of the alternate reality that you have created first. Don't think you're capable though. Again, thanks, it's all good.

    Irrefutable biblical proof that death is abolished at the second coming

    Answer in Rev. 19:20-21 Then the beast was captured, and with him the false prophet who worked signs in his presence, by which he deceived those who received the mark of the beast and those who worshiped his image. These two were cast alive into the lake of fire burning with brimstone. 21 And...

    Where was the Sabbath Abolished?

    Well to be fair, Mr. Confusion runs alongside us, he's a common annoying participant in the race. We know in part and see dimly. It is clearer to some that we are justified by faith alone. It is also clear that once we are saved, we have a responsibility to be obedient to His commandments - not...

    Irrefutable biblical proof that death is abolished at the second coming

    You have it backwards. Read it the order that is appears. There is really no separation in order of events from chapter 19 to 20. Chapters and verses did not exist in the original manuscripts. In some cases, I think the Scribes improperly divided chapters. So it is always good to review the...

    Irrefutable biblical proof that death is abolished at the second coming

    @WPM Thank you for your thread and posts, it helped me to delve deeper into the theology of the Millennial Kingdom. I now have even a better understanding of it. JESUS IS COMING SOON!

    Irrefutable biblical proof that death is abolished at the second coming

    John saw heaven, but mostly he was given visions of the earthly events. " And I saw the souls of them that had been beheaded for the witness of Jesus" is a vision ON EARTH. What did you think, he saw spirit heads without bodies floating around in heaven? Never read anything by him. Nowhere, I...

    Where was the Sabbath Abolished?

    Very true. In a deeper level it is a divisive tool, Law vs. Grace, being justified by faith. Paul corrected the Judaizers for insisting that Christians be circumcised too. The Hebrew Christians struggled with that and still some feel their calling and mission is to get everyone on board with...

    Irrefutable biblical proof that death is abolished at the second coming

    Revelation is not chronological. Events are shown at different vantage points. They are written one after another but many things are happening simultaneously, they overlap. In Rev. 7:9 we see a multitude ( that no one could number), who just arrived in Heaven - who come out if the Great...

    Irrefutable biblical proof that death is abolished at the second coming

    Like in any good book with 22 chapters, one doesn't disregard, skip or symbolically distort chapters 6 - 19, arrive at 20 and knows what the heck is going on. Revelation is the unveiling of Christ, the climax and consummation of history that began in the Garden of Eden or did you skip or...

    No, no, you are doing the two-step ... backwards.
