No, that's not a logical conclusion to reach from rejecting the notion that Elijah was a reincarnation of Enoch based on his parentage not being mentioned in Scripture. The eye-witness accounts of the Transfiguration in the Gospels are believable whereas the assertion that lack of mention of...

Momentum. God has set things in motion, knowing how they will play out, and having the power to intervene at any stage. Knowing that evil will occur and allowing it because of the end game or ultimate objective is not the same as causing that evil to occur. From the moment we are conceived...

It's a fallacy of composition that no mention in Scripture of Elijah's parentage requires that he didn't have any on earth, and it is a misinterpretation of Scripture that fosters the belief John the Baptist was Elijah reincarnate. Jas 5:17 Elias was a man subject to like passions as we are...

Metaphors Matter. Without them we would struggle to describe the aspects, behaviours, and characterisitics of things. Anywhere that corruption, confusion, and chaos reside is Babylon, and her offspring are ever with her.

From Antiquity Babylon, Both Geographical & Metaphorical, Has Affected The Nations as follows: Jer 51:7 Babylon was a golden cup in the LORD's hand, That made all the earth drunk. The nations drank her wine; Therefore the nations are deranged. Isa 47:12-13 "Stand now with your enchantments...

My point in asking what you thought was to promote spiritual growth through discussion and fellowship and so worship Christ. I believe that much grieving of the Holy Spirit occurs in congregations and communities that embrace things contradictory to Scripture and abhorrent to God. eg...

Press in. Press on. Look up. Pro 3:5-6 Trust in the LORD with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; (6) In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths.

Yes, prism. I'm wondering what you might think about these verses: Heb 10:28-29 Anyone who has rejected Moses' law dies without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses. (29) Of how much worse punishment, do you suppose, will he be thought worthy who has trampled the Son of God...

For me, regularly reading the Book of Acts from start to finish, and deep-diving into Biblical truth is especially good for living and walking in the Spirit. Gal 5:25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. I believe living in the Spirit means the Spirit is where we abide...

Did you know? The Bible's Book of Judges (12:4-6) tells the story of the Ephraimites, who, after they were routed by the Gileadite army, tried to retreat by sneaking across a ford of the Jordan River that was held by their enemy. The Gileadites, wary of the ploy, asked every soldier who tried to...

Yes, without a love for the ideology of Christianity I would hate the reality of it. Hence the beatitudes, or beautiful attitudes as someone called them. Mat 5:2-12 Then He opened His mouth and taught them, saying: (3) "Blessed are the poor in spirit, For theirs is the kingdom of heaven...

Yes, it increases tensions. Appeal to reason is better.

The Parable of the Sower comes to mind. The fertile soil produces fruit that endures whereas the compacted wayside, the stubborn stony ground, and the weedy overgrown wasteland fails to yield lasting faith. Fortunately the witness of faithful Christians and the preaching of God's Word does...

We knew it would happen. It's Day 6 at Alert Level 4 in our country since an outbreak of the Covid 19 Delta Variant was picked up last Tuesday 17th August 2021. A traveller from Sydney Australia was allowed into NZ earlier this month but somehow during airport transfer and quarantine a 52 year...

At least this forum isn't dying. Some forums I have been on have died for various reasons, but if the administration is either too rigid or too lax consumers can become bored or offended and leave. Trolls* and Mascos* need to be monitored, sure. but it seems to me that the threads that get the...

I don't debunk true science, just false science, and evolution is based on false science. Criteria to meet for True Science: Observable. Measurable. Recordable. Repeatable. Predictable. The Bible doesn't purport to be a science manual, and a long list of notable scientists have no problem...

I agree with it. Evolutionism and the attempt to reconcile it with the Bible is what is known as Theistic Evolution, which maintains God designed the environment and primordial microbes to evolve into all forms of life over millions of years of mutations and death, resulting eventually in the...

Following your fallacy of logic you must be worshipping the alphabet because you are using its symbols to communicate. Shame on you.
