Greetings again Doug, Perhaps it is colourful language and a parallel thought to the extreme experience of Jonah in the belly of the large fish. You have given a very detailed view, but I find it far from convincing. I do not believe in immortal souls. If your scenario is correct, why does...

Greetings again Doug, The tomb. Kind regards Trevor

Greetings again Walter and Debbie, Yes reasonable health, but there is only one of me, not "all", unless you are speaking concerning my wife - she is a bit sick at the moment. I just recovered last Friday from a chronic condition that necessitated the visit of a District Nurse twice a week for...

Greetings Aunt Jane and Depb, I prefer the rendition "I am he" for John 8:58 the same as given in John 8:24 and John 8:28. I have a different explanation of John 8:58 to both Trinitarians and Aunty Jane I appreciate and agree with your above summary. As my Trinitarian Hebrew tutor said to his...

Greetings Walter and Debbie, I consider that the translation given in the RV and RSV margins “I will be that I will be” or “I will be what I will be” is the correct translation of Exodus 3:14. Tyndale also translated this in the future tense, and I also like the interesting spelling of his...

Greetings again Doug, Your view of the heart of the earth does not fit reality, as the centre of the earth is hot and burning. The heart of the earth was the tomb, where Jesus was dead for three days and nights. Does not sound like Paradise to me. Yes, I agree that the faithful are asleep in...

Greetings again Doug, That would certainly alter the definition of Paradise, but to your understanding, where is Abraham's bosom? Is the thief still there? Is Jesus still there? Looking again at the full reference: Luke 23:39–43 (KJV): 39 And one of the malefactors which were hanged railed on...

Greetings again GodsGrace, No, I am only responding to what you have stated in your Posts, and I am not sure of what you believe on many topics. When you have time look up John 21:15-19, the threefold confession of Peter. The Jerusalem Bible is clearer than the KJV as it distinguishes between...

Greetings again Doug, Jesus' answer to the thief on the Cross was about when Jesus would return tp establish his kingdom and raise the dead. The parable of the Rich Man and Lazarus uses the name Lazarus, and Jesus was soon going to raise Lazarus from the dead. The warning to the Pharisees at...

Greetings again GodsGrace, Are you attempting to make allowances for the Apostasy? The Gospel and true Christianity was fully established by Jesus and the Apostles. We both have different backgrounds, environments and experiences. One such interaction that I was involved in was at work. In...

Greetings Doug, Yes, it is a parable. The Kingdom of God is clearly defined in such passages as Isaiah 2:1-4, Daniel 2:35,44, Zechariah 14, Acts 3:19-21 and many other passages. The Kingdom of God will be when Jesus returns and sits upon the Temple Throne of David in Jerusalem for the 1000...

Greetings again GodsGrace, I am talking about the Bible definition of the word "Christian". Kind regards Trevor

Greetings again GodsGrace, I agree with all of the above except the first, but I also suggest that the Apostolic Faith that defines Christianity contains more essential items including the correct understanding of the Atonement, and a correct understanding of the Kingdom of God. The following...

Greetings again GodsGrace, Perhaps you are unfamiliar with the English term that is usually used. My KJV Bible has near the beginning "Contents - The Names and Order of the Books of the Bible" and it lists the 66 Books of the Bible. My Interlinear RV/KJV is similar, but gives an Index for the...

Greetings again GodsGrace, Perhaps my use of the word "book" is ambiguous, to you at least, but let us use the word "manuscript". But I suggest you are avoiding the question and the obvious (hilarious?). Starting with Matthew which would have been copied and distributed many times in the 1st...

Greetings again GodsGrace, What particular book of the NT necessitated for its authenticity the endorsement of various 2nd and 3rd Century ECFs? Start by considering Matthew, Mark, Luke, John and The Acts. It is like asking someone Is this really a Pearl of Great Price? Kind regards Trevor

Greetings again GodsGrace, You have not disclosed as to whether you believe that Cherubim and Seraphim are literal or symbolic Creatures. I only endorse that they are symbolic. Both videos seem to indicate that they are real and surprisingly also claim that there are nine different types of...

Greetings again Adventageous, Not sure that I want to fully discuss this. As well as the large full page local newspaper advertisement on this subject I was sent The Great Controversy and a small booklet on the National Sabbath Law. Are you convinced that what EGW has suggested is Scriptural...

Greetings again GodsGrace, Are you saying that the Cherubim with four different heads each and with burning calves feet are a literal breed of Angels? And the Living Creatures with four different heads EACH are another miscellaneous breed of Angels? I need to carefully consider some of the NT...

Greetings again Adventageous, I appreciate the long list of quotations. The Cherubim of Ezekiel 1 had four faces apiece, a lion, an eagle, an ox and a man, and feet like calves feet burning as with coals of fire and also FOUR wings. The Seraphim faces are not described, but each had SIX wings...
