    Why Do Jehovah's Witnesses Reject Blood Transfusions?

    Hold on, I would'nt judge that strictly. It is for God to do that. They believe that Jesus died for their sins and rose in the third day. They follow his teachings and apply them. They know sin and love. They have false doctrines but so do many Christian churches and individuals. A false...

    Why Do Jehovah's Witnesses Reject Blood Transfusions?

    We are saved by Grace, it is not what we put in our mouths that defiles us. Christ's blood sacrifice transcends from the physical past into the timeless spiritual realm. Wine represents that blood and the bread, his body, they are symbolic. So we really being eat His flesh and drink His Blood...

    Can the Soul Die?

    "And be not afraid of those killing the body, and are not able to kill the soul, but fear rather Him who is able both soul and body to destroy in gehenna." Matt.10:28 Here we have a distinction between body and soul. I like what CS Lewis said, We are a living soul, we have a body. What is a...

    The problem with the Bible alone!

    This truly explains why you know what you know and do what you do.

    The problem with the Bible alone!

    Do you believe in and discern these scriptures? "But the anointing which ye have received from Him abideth in you, and ye have no need that any man teach you. But as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in Him...

    Love is Fault Blind

    There is some truth in what you are saying, but we can't really be blind to sin and evil. It teaches us what good is. We need to realize we are all sinners, have mercy and forgiveness (not realistic to be blind to their sin); but find something good about a person and focus on that, even if it...

    The problem with the Bible alone!

    We have the Holy Spirit to teach us, we do not need a teacher. Many people in the world own a Bible, may read and even study it. It alone is not enough. We must have a relationship with Jesus, Who died for our sins and rose on the third day according to the scriptures. How do we believe? God...

    Here Is Where the "Pentecostal" False Witness of God's Spirit Can Be Seen.

    He performs miracles, seen and experienced by others; but His ability to orchestrate billions of acts that involve billions of people is quite mind boggling. Just the things I experience alone in my life are amazing. Multiply that by billions. He uses non-believers unbeknownst to them and quite...

    Partial preterisims and revelation chapter by chapter part 1

    No, part of the church! Let's see now, just to summarize things a bit. You state that *Israel _ is the Church. *The 144k _ is the Church. * The pillars are not individuals but each pillar _ is the Church. * The whole New Jerusalem that comes down from heaven _ is the Church - with all it's...

    Quickie science quiz

    Even so, Proxima Centauri is 4.25 light years and the Alpha Centauri, 4.37 light years. (est). Even if we could man a spaceship that could travel as fast as the fastest probe, the Parker Solar Probe, that will reach a top speed of 450,000 mph, it would take about 6,633 years to reach Earth's...

    Partial preterisims and revelation chapter by chapter part 1

    Do you see, you are having a problem with interpreting scriptures that you post. Rev. 3:12 is talking about _ each _ and every _ individual Christian, not the entire church. "He who overcomes, I will make him a pillar in the temple of My God, and he shall go out no more. I will write on him the...

    Postmillenial Partial Preterism...What is it? A Victorious View of the Gospel.

    Volcanoes, earthquakes, meteor showers, have been experienced and they had knowledge of them. Meteor showers to them look like stars falling. If John saw missiles in the vision, then he wouldn't write missiles or a mushroom cloud, he would write something that best described what he saw. They...

    Partial preterisims and revelation chapter by chapter part 1

    Pillar is actually used metaphorically to represent a permanent fixture - I do discern symbolism too! This guy explains it better than I can. Expository Files by Jon Quinn ["Interestingly, of the sixteen times the word “temple” is used in the Book of Revelation, only once does it refer to the...

    Postmillenial Partial Preterism...What is it? A Victorious View of the Gospel.

    No, no, no, you first. These are only two verses, NOT two full chapters in the Bible. I have spent many hours with you, but I do not care to spoon feed you the meaning of two chapters line by line for you, when I know that your rebuttal will be complete rejection, as you have already...

    Partial preterisims and revelation chapter by chapter part 1

    That's it, "I think the New Jerusalem is symbolic for the church". So, God destroys the first earth and first heaven, we see the chuch (people) that are described symbolically as walls, foundations, stones, pearly gates, streets of gold, pillars. etc. And oh, the size of the church is 12,000...

    Postmillenial Partial Preterism...What is it? A Victorious View of the Gospel.

    No, you implied my ideas were pagan, you laughed at them and then I showed scripture proving that God will use volcanic eruptions as part of His Judgement, among other physical cataclysmic events. Start with the line by line interpretation for Deut. 32:22. & Rev. 8:8 particularly where it...

    Postmillenial Partial Preterism...What is it? A Victorious View of the Gospel.

    "For a fire is kindled in mine anger, And burneth unto the lowest Sheol, And devoureth the earth with its increase, And setteth on fire the foundations of the mountains." Deut. 32:22 That sure sounds like a volcanic eruption. "And the second angel sounded, and as it were a great mountain burning...

    Partial preterisims and revelation chapter by chapter part 1

    Women or men ... you don't know this ... adultery, fornication? "12" was a special number that God used. Rev. 21:12-21 tells about the construction if the New Jerusalem - like nothing in this planet: "having a wall great and high; having twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels; and names...
