    Apokatastasis in the early church

    What is your view based on - was the question.

    Apokatastasis in the early church

    Word for word accuracy would be for certain in the original copy. That does not negate whether later copies weren't exactly copies! Copies of the New Testament may include 400 words in question. The Old Testament, maybe more? The Dead Sea Scrolls revealed a complete copy of the book of Isaiah...

    Apokatastasis in the early church

    There is your problem! You pick and choose scripture that works for you, sounds logical and discard the rest. Why? Because you do not believe in the entire Bible. >> You don't think it is reliable, passed down accurately and maybe partially inspired by God but much needs to be questioned. And so...

    Christ's sinless Head with a sinful body?

    You don't know what death is and it looks like you don't have a grasp on what sin is either. The commandments gives us an idea of what sin is. In the Garden, God gave them one rule/law. Sin did not exist before they broke the law, they disobeyed. Jesus didn't create disobedience in man. Nor did...

    Transubstantiation. What is it?

    Jesus performed many miracles, healings, fed the multitude and still there were unbelievers. " But as I told you, you have seen me and still you do not believe." They wanted yet another sign. They brought up Moses and the manna. Likey they wanted to see manna fall from heaven? Jesus said I am...

    Christ's sinless Head with a sinful body?

    It is scripture, not tradition! Romans 5:12 Romans 5:18-19 Psalm 51:5 Ephesians 2:2-3 Genesis 8:21 Psalm 58:3 Jeremiah 17:9 Genesis 6:5

    Apokatastasis in the early church

    Countless billions have been created for a purpose, some for life and some for death. The knowledge of GOOD AND EVIL had unavoidable consequences that God found necessary. Sin needs to be judged. Get rid of police and penalties for breaking the laws of the land and see what happens. Liberals...

    Apokatastasis in the early church

    Back up a few verses. If anyone builds on this foundation using gold, silver, costly stones, wood, hay or straw, 13 their work will be shown for what it is, because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will test the quality of each person’s work. 14 If...

    Why Civilization Should Defend Zionism

    I got out of Torrance, CA after 40 years, 7 years ago..It seems I did the right thing.. Over 1 milllion people have moved out of California in the past three years. Ala ama sounds good too ... a high Christian population.

    Apokatastasis in the early church

    I don't think kolasis in Matthew 25:41 means punishment in the sense that a lesson is learned. I think it is a severe judgment where death of both body and soul is given. So it means destroyed. He says, "Depart from me, you accursed, INTO THE FIRE ..." Does that sound like a a slap on the hand...

    Apokatastasis in the early church

    Nice try, wrong again! In Acts 3:21, The period of restoration of all things - Peter is not saying all souls will be restored or saved as is taught in the false doctrine of Universalism. All souls "in Christ" have been regenerated and given eternal life. Listen to what Jesus said, Therefore I...

    Why Civilization Should Defend Zionism

    In Christ is our spiritual state, but I am still here on earth _ a male _ an American _ in Texas.

    Why Civilization Should Defend Zionism

    Why bring up anything about the Jewish Talmud or these human protocols drafted by Jews, Neither of them are God's WORD. The City of David is referred as as ZION and has a hill/ mountain. I always thought of Zionism as a future government literally ruled by Christ (literally on Mt. ZION), written...

    Is there anything that you like about Muslims?

    You don't have to, Jesus is looking down on them. Sorry that's little insensitive. Actually this is a good point you made, "they are victims". We think that if we were born with Buddhists, Hindu or Muslim parents, we'd follow their lead, be taught that way and accept it as truth. We'd think...

    Christ's sinless Head with a sinful body?

    Correct, Romans 5:18-19 and Psalm 51:5 have been around for awhile! You should study them.

    Is there anything that you like about Muslims?

    Faith in Jesus does not come by works, it is a gift. We love the Lord and have a peace about it. We are not compelled by fear to perform rituals. So this outward demonstration that you seem to be impressed with is empty, because it is a false religion. We were not converted by force. Muslims...

    Where did Jesus go when he died?

    He said to the man next to him on the cross "TODAY YOU WILL BE IN PARADISE". That is where He went. Luke 16 explains that there were two locations after death, Hades, (the underworld) and Paradise, separated by a great gulf/chasm. The story about the Rich man and Lazarus was not a parable...

    Christ's sinless Head with a sinful body?

    The original sin was passed down from Adam to all. We were all born in sin EXCEPT FOR JESUS. Jesus was the only person born WITHOUT SIN, NOR DID HE EVER SIN. Jesus is God and the conception between the Holy and Mary was pure. His human nature was passed down from Mary, but not His spiritual...

    In him, all things hold together. Would that include darkness?

    "In Him all things consist (are held together)". He is the Creator. His mind and power controls and holds all things together,; but the universe is not God, nor heaven or hell or anything else He created. He is the Light, what is good, love and all His attributes and those attributes transcend...

    Romans 11 and the real Replacement Theology

    By their fruit, you will know them. Don't sense the joy, love, kindness, gentleness, goodness, peace in your posts. I'm getting a chill, I must be going now.
