    Prayer request for my baby-born in ICU

    Slavery in the United States

    Hello The 9/11 events are described in Rev 16:12-16 which starts with the drying up of the River Euphrates and ends with the kings of the earth assembling the place called Armageddon to be judged. The judging of the Kings of the earth is also described in Isaiah 24:21-22 and provides the...

    We ask for a fish and you give us a serpent?

    If you had said that in the first place, it would have resulted in a very different response in this thread from @Dash RipRock and me.

    We ask for a fish and you give us a serpent?

    Mark, your quoted statement above can be taken one of two ways by the readers by how the word "apart" is understood. "Apart from Christ," i.e. this is the only way to salvation, or we are standing apart from Christ, "we are all the same." i.e. we are all sinners, or we are the same only through...

    We ask for a fish and you give us a serpent?

    Yes, your definition is just one of the ways that "apart" can be used in a sentence. If we take another four-letter word, like "take" it has around 75 different contextual meanings, like, "take a seat" which can mean, "to sit" or to "carry," or "to take a trick" means "to win a trick" in a card...

    We ask for a fish and you give us a serpent?

    Looks like you did not understand that a very different meaning was intended with the word "apart," from the way you had intended the word "apart" to mean. Shorthand words do not always lead to clarity when used without first defining what they may mean. Context is very important to establish...

    Is the Bible outdated for today?

    Hello, If people have eyes to see and ears to hear then they would see God's prophetic words that are relevant to today's events in the scriptures. What is happening in the Coalition of the willing nations that went into Iraq to heal the land rather than to destroy it in 2003? Jer 51:13-14...

    The Bliss of Religious Homeostasis - Don't Rock the Boat

    That all depends on how we interpret the parable and what is presented in the scriptures. There are many who have eyes to see but do not see and ears to hear but do not hear. Understanding only comes when we have eyes that see and ears that hear, but sadly many still twist what they hear and...

    MATTHEW 25:30 THE UNPROFITABLE SERVANT

    Fred, I could not have said it better myself. Thank you for telling the above as a guide to identify Pharisees. Sadducees and religious hypocrites within the body of Christianity. Goodbye

    MATTHEW 25:30 THE UNPROFITABLE SERVANT

    Fred, while ever you use false claims and false arguments to sure up your POV, your standing on this forum will fall. Goodbye

    MATTHEW 25:30 THE UNPROFITABLE SERVANT

    Yes, and the imposters point their finger away from themselves implying that others, and not themselves, are the imposter with respect to God's recorded scriptures and His relationship with them. Oh well, such is life.

    MATTHEW 25:30 THE UNPROFITABLE SERVANT

    Yes, and the talents were a determined monetary value depending on whether it was a Talent of Gold, Silver or Bronze which was called a Talent and yes, the number of talents they were given was based on their ability to trade with the monetary value of their respective talents to make a profit...

    MATTHEW 25:30 THE UNPROFITABLE SERVANT

    Actually, Jesus was describing just one aspect of God's everlasting Kingdom, that will be established in around 20 years from now, where Satan's Good and faithful servants will apply the money, they are given by Satan, to impede God's Everlasting Kingdom to progress. You can choose how you want...

    We Follow the King. You Follow a Corpse.

    As Bill Gates believes, the world will be a better place in around 20 years' time let us wait until then. As what I believe has not yet unfolded, it is improper for you to dismiss what I believe until all of the evidence has come to its completion. Sadly, you have been posting many false...

    MATTHEW 25:30 THE UNPROFITABLE SERVANT

    Yes Yes Yes No Slowly and with much reading of the scriptures.

    We Follow the King. You Follow a Corpse.

    Let us see where your claim is found in this passage quoted: - Jer 31:31-34: - 31 "Behold, the days are coming, says the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah — 32 not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that...

    Vision Of The Bungee Cords

    This is the exhilaration that people get when they tie a bungee cord to their ankles and launch themselves off the bridge to fall to just above the water below. Their faith is in the calculations of the operators, that they will survive their fall from the bridge. They pay lots of $s for this...

    MATTHEW 25:30 THE UNPROFITABLE SERVANT

    It should be understood that the basic problem in understanding the Parables of the Talents and the Minas can be found in who we believe is the man who goes away for a time to receive a kingdom? My understanding is that the man who goes away for 1,000 years is Satan, whereas many "Christians"...

    We Follow the King. You Follow a Corpse.

    The Renewed covenant spoken of in Jer 31:31 is the Kingdom of Priests, a Holy Nation and God's Possession among the Nations covenant, this covenant mentioned in Jer 31:31 has nothing to do with the Salvation Covenant that has existed since the time of Adam. Now if I take a car into a motor...
