    Matthew 24:30 may have a significant mistranslation

    Now as they said these things, Jesus Himself stood in the midst of them, and said to them, “Peace to you.” 37 But they were terrified and frightened, and supposed they had seen a spirit. 38 And He said to them, “Why are you troubled? And why do doubts arise in your hearts? 39 Behold My hands...

    The end of believing as we know it.

    No, that is wrong--and not at all what I said. But since you said that you have been listening and paying attention, you obviously have a limited ability to comprehend or intellectualize the difference between "believing" and "knowing"--which I have clarified for you now twice. So, believe...

    The end of believing as we know it.

    And you--you are not listening or paying attention. I told you I don't "believe", but "know" what is true--personally (in person) from Him who I quoted. You can believe it or not.

    The end of believing as we know it.

    The answer then, is not ignoring the Elephant in the room--the answer is to "know" the truth. "The truth will set you free."

    Some are FALSE, some are not, but TRUE.

    No, no--heaven forbid, I explained that in paragraph 4.

    Some are FALSE, some are not, but TRUE.

    He (Jesus) Himself gave some to be [false] apostles, some [false] prophets, some [evil] evangelists, and some [phony] pastors and [false] teachers, 12 for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ, 13 till we all come to the unity of the faith...

    The end of believing as we know it.

    So? This is a fallen world where there is both good and evil. Charlie died believing what is good. But [all] die. It is as I said: We all are just walking out who we are at our core--exposed as evidence. Then comes the Judgement.

    Matthew 24:30 may have a significant mistranslation

    You are scripturally mixing flesh and blood with spirit--an unholy, worldly cocktail--and not rightly dividing the word of truth. You left out 1 Corinthians 15:36-40. But even so, even if you are tempted to claim that celestial bodies and terrestrial bodies are made up of the same matter--those...

    Matthew 24:30 may have a significant mistranslation

    That is a good question--that if your doctrine were completely sound you would not need to ask. The answer of which is, that even now we are seated together with Christ in heavenly places ruling and reigning with Him, some as good servants and some as evil servants (for in the world many yet...

    The end of believing as we know it.

    Allow me to clarify: I am one who DOES NOT "BELIEVE" what is possibly true, because I "know" what is true. There is a difference. Which is something God has done with some, a few, down through all of recorded history. This is not a claim on my part, but a witness: He revealed Himself to me, and...

    Oh, you mean like Simon the sorcerer? Sorry--no can buy!

    Matthew 24:30 may have a significant mistranslation

    If you want to believe that Jesus entered into heaven in the "same manner" as He walked the earth, against the greater council of all scripture, so be it. But I tell you that He may have been seen visibly briefly and in part, as a witness, but the greater part of His ascension was "unseen" and...

    Matthew 24:30 may have a significant mistranslation

    That would be the new heaven and earth. But I digress--why do you continue to make claims that cannot be reconciled with all scripture? Perhaps you didn't learn that Christ’s resurrected body was not spirit--as He said.

    Prophecy From Daniel Seen In History And The Book Of Revelation

    Welcome Caregiver! I marvel at such work and how God seems to build it into the greater scheme of things--indeed there is something to it! However, Jesus made a qualifying statement regarding how much of these thing would seemingly play out: "For wherever the carcass is, there the eagles will...

    The Four Interpretations of Hebrew. Which one do you use?

    Yes, Paul spoke of building upon the foundation that others had built--and these are just a few of all that God as the Master Builder has made possible--possible as confirmation and assurance of all that He has promised and is doing.

    The Four Interpretations of Hebrew. Which one do you use?

    Thanks for starting the thread! I just posted this in another thread: Whatever method one uses when considering what context is correct, it is important to understand that one context event is likely to have come about for the sake of a greater context to come. A good example is David's...

    Did Matthew quote Hosea out of context?

    I haven't seen @TonyChanYT around for a while. But whatever method one uses when considering what context is correct, it is important to understand that one context event is likely to have come about for the sake of a greater context to come. A good example is David's personal suffering (his...

    Matthew 24:30 may have a significant mistranslation

    I convoluted nothing--I only quoted scripture. Nor was any commentary necessary, as my quoting the scriptures should have been enough to tell you that you have erred because you have not reconciled all of what is written on the matter. I do understand how eyes of flesh seeing Jesus ascend into...

    The end of believing as we know it.

    Until the end the blind will not see. Many believe, but nonetheless the truth is known by some (of which I am one)--for they have seen it.

    Matthew 24:30 may have a significant mistranslation

    “A little while longer and the world will see Me no more, but you will see Me. Because I live, you will live also." John 4:19 “The kingdom of God does not come with observation;" Luke 17:20
