    We Follow the King. You Follow a Corpse.

    From my own studies of the NT I have found that "new" appears 59 times in the NT in 46 verses. Below is what I have discovered: - Below is the list of all of the verses where "new" is found in the NT. Titus 2:4 was not found in the list below for "new" as it has been translated as "younger...

    We Follow the King. You Follow a Corpse.

    Could I suggest that there is no "NEW" covenant. The "New covenant" protagonists, by their claims, are only trying to distance themselves from the nation of Israel with their New Covenant Theology. Jesus Himself suggested that the Salvation Covenant was still the same covenant that has been in...

    What Does Child Trafficing Look Like? -- LOOK AWAY, LOOK AWAY

    The member who posted the OP in this thread was aggressive towards other members and from memory he was banned for a time. My post was basically addressing his tyle of posting not only in this thread but also in other threads. Now in dealing with this problem, it is better if we deal with the...

    What Does Child Trafficing Look Like? -- LOOK AWAY, LOOK AWAY

    Did you read the post that I received the like for? Yours is a sad reaction, when all I was giving was a compliment to @TLHKAJ for her response to what I had posted around three years ago.

    What Does Child Trafficing Look Like? -- LOOK AWAY, LOOK AWAY

    @TLHKAJ That was a like I did not see coming after three or so years.

    The Jerusalem which is above is the heavenly city of promise which God has prepared for His saints

    It is Kainos. The Renewed Jerusalem replaces what came before it. In coming down from heaven, it comes a the Bride of Christ. The verse metaphorical and is not necessarily literal as you seem to want to treat this verse.

    The Jerusalem which is above is the heavenly city of promise which God has prepared for His saints

    Have I missed something? Is the reference to Jerusalem in the above verse to a place or to the Saints who will become the New Jerusalem Temple to worship God with Her Husband?

    The Jerusalem which is above is the heavenly city of promise which God has prepared for His saints

    Hello It seems to me that many do not know the difference between "Neos" and "Kainos" Neos is with respect to age, i.e. I brought a "new" {Neos} car, The car is "newly" acquired, and as such it is new to me, however, if I had said I brought a "new" {Kainos} car, then I am indicating the car's...

    Forgiveness

    False teaching does not overrule what is eternal truth, it just leads people to look towards the wrong source for their nourishment. God told Abraham that his descendants would be a blessing to all the people who chose to inhabit His fertile soil/field. Shalom

    Looking for Bible verse suggestions

    But out of their intrusiveness, we are gaining more of God's backbone for our lives, to stand up straighter with our heads lifted up in our worship of who God is in our respective lives.

    What was the primary work that Paul was pointing to in Ephesian 2:10

    Here is Ephesians 2:5-10 for reference: - Ephesians 2:4-10: - 4 But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, 5 even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), 6 and raised us up together, and made us...

    MATTHEW 25:30 THE UNPROFITABLE SERVANT

    A common misunderstanding of many who read the Book of revelations as a linear revelation. When we study God's revelation as contained in the scriptures, we must read all of the bible prophecies to see how they are interwoven together. We cannot consider portions of the scriptures in isolation...

    How about: - Please pray; I need all the help that God can muster for me to love you all, unconditionally.

    MATTHEW 28 IS IT OUR COMMISSION?

    All of Jesus' followers have been given certain giftings, some to be evangelists, others pastoral gifts, while others have gifts of discernment and visions. Each of these followers have a duty to discipline those with whom they communion with as to how they can use their giftings to bring Glory...

    MATTHEW 25:30 THE UNPROFITABLE SERVANT

    There are examples of earthly Kings who reign without actually living in all of their dominion. The Persin King sent statues of himself all over his empire to be placed in all of the temples to be worshipped. Christ promised that He would live within His people and communion with them from...

    WHEN IS THE DAY OF THE LORD?

    The main focus of the Israelites was God's "Promised Land" and as such their understanding is around their "land" whereas in verse Isaiah 13:9 God focus was on the salvation of all of the people of the whole "earth" whether on land or on the seas. As such verse 9 should read: - "Behold, the...

    Something about Isaiah

    I did a search for "fire" in the NKJV of Isaiah and found 34 verses where the word "fire" can be found. I also did a search for "torch" but only found this word in Isaiah 51:11 NIV. In the NKJV in this same verse the text contained the word "fire. Here is the list of verses" - Isa 1:7 Isa...

    A nosey woman

    Fluffy, If God is drawing you to Himself, then I have no need to tell you to be in communion with the Lord about everything, placing before Him all of your concerns and your desires to run away from a developing problem in your life, to seek His advice and direction as to what you should be...

    A nosey woman

    As has been prayed for you, you too can pray the same prayer for this woman, that God would draw her into His loving embrace so that she would know His love just for her and his purposes for her to bring blessing to all of the people she may interact with on a daily basis so that she become a...

    Real Christians

    I could make the same uniformed statement about you too. It just is not kosher and unbecoming.
