    When Did Jesus Go to Egypt?

    When Did Jesus Go to Egypt? Yes, but when, you ask. Has it been considered that Egypt is another metaphor just as Babylon or Sodom are? A metaphor for the oppressive systems of this World, ie it's Kingdoms Revelation 11:8 And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which...

    Let's examine Revelation 20:4 yet again.

    When expressions are used like, 'Your views are completely different from God's Word', what is really being said is, my point of view is the same as God's, oblivious to the arrogance which rolls off the tongue or the pen in this case. Learning in real terms has ceased and one's opinions are...

    When Did Jesus Go to Egypt?

    Do we dare stretch the idea, 'light in the sky'? 'The people who live in darkness have seen a great light, and for those living in the land of the shadow of death, a light has dawned' Matthew 4:16 or 'I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright Morning Star' Revelation 22:16...

    Let's examine Revelation 20:4 yet again.

    'Fresh eyes' is the word. Old wine skins will be destroyed with new wine. I think what its saying here is, old wine skins (thoughts/ strongholds/ paradigms) cannot/ will not contain new wine (new teaching/ paradigms)

    When Did Jesus Go to Egypt?

    The Star.....a band of angels? It clearly must be in closer proximity to earth to get a precise visual fix than other heavenly bodies. Is it even those self same band of angels that appeared and sang to the shepherds?

    A Challenge

    Words used like sacrifice, redemption, atonement, salvation etc have been connected or woven into the idea of punishment.....and punishment is understood as what someone else does to you or someone else on your behalf. I'll take the word 'sacrifice'. Is it seen as an offering, even a blood...

    A Challenge

    My observation is that there are plenty who study what God said....in fact, Colleges who process thousands are dedicated to doing this very thing yet relatively few actually understand in spite of much debate being engaged. It appears to me the many religious leaders in Jesus time had the same...

    What is the difference between the gospel to the Jews and the gospel to the gentiles?

    Its focus is on anything except Jesus and his objective which is to reveal the character/ nature of his Father. Focus brings in detail. It is the popular 'other gospel' which focuses on the self. It is epitomised by giving advice ie, what one has to do before God approves. Its concealment is in...
