    Why did God give you a husband?

    Why didn't God give you a husband? He knows I would have been freaked out!

    What does it mean to be Under the Law?

    What does it mean to be Under the Law? It means to never have the assurance of Salvation. It awaits judgement where the foregone conclusion in those who are under law is condemnation. They know instinctively they are not good enough ...if at all.

    What are Beasts in Prophecy

    Sorry JR, I do not see your interpretation as applying....apart from Satan being the mover and shaker behind the systems/ political forces of the World just as he was behind the Jewish indictment of Jesus and the Romans who crucified him.

    What are Beasts in Prophecy

    What are Beasts in Prophecy? Beasts are political systems. We use the term 'he was a beast' and by it we mean oppressive, exploitive, violent, slippery, untrustworthy, without sensibility, etc. Political systems which have risen through history pretty much follow these patterns. We are...

    Buying and Selling

    BUYING and SELLING We all do it in some form whether it's goods and services, ideas and opinions, ideologies or preferences. It is what we understand as interaction. Interaction in oppressive societies is controlled. A certain narrative becomes mandatory if one wants to 'interact' with...

    Is Total Victory over Sin Possible?

    A relationship based on Law is bound to have a Judge and thus fear. A relationship based on forgiveness is based on affection and thus trust.

    Yes, Jesus meant TODAY in his message to the thief on the cross

    This interpretation of the spirits in prison is just sheer ignorance.

    What prophecies regarding Israel’s regathering have already been or are being fulfilled?

    The children of Israel were primarily rascals from the outset....and they maintained their lie of what happened to Joseph till circumstances forced their hand. Their progeny has primarily walked the same route as their forbears. 'Israel' for all intents and purposes means and is 'those who...

    Tornado Outbreaks & Severe Weather

    Job thought/ believed God caused his calamities but we know that it wasn't God. We know because of how the book of Job starts. We have information Job didn't have. The same principle of inside information gives us understanding today. Jesus unveiled the true nature of God. He unveiled...

    Your stated views do not support each other, in fact they contradict.

    You still need to reconcile your idea of CHANGE with statements like 'God is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow' Hebrews 13:8 'Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and for ever. Malachi 3:6 'God says, “For I am the LORD, I do not change; therefore you are not consumed, O sons of...

    looking at it from your perspective Jack, Jesus was at odds with many things written by Moses when he said repeatedly ' you have heard said but I say unto you....' then he said the opposite. Does that mean that Jesus was opposed to your claim of God authoring what Moses wrote?

    I called Moses's account of God drowning people Murder. Didn't you know that God didn't write those accounts?

    yeah, I'd call it murder. What would you call it?

    Veganism

    It is clear that you don't think, as you say AJ. I am not saying this to insult you, just bouncing back your own words. I would suggest that thinking is critical if one wants answers that don't just repeat the familiar narrative. It was Moses who wrote the account AJ...not Noah. By the time...

    I'm not Jack.....are you? I ask because the positions you regularly defend is that of a murderer.

    God's Just and Merciful Gospel.

    Murderers kill because they think it will solve an issue for themselves. They make a example of them by telling others, I'm gonna do this to you when you cross me. How can anyone love this kind of attitude? Is this the heart of the God who Created the Universe?......or maybe some of us relish...
