    The Unjust Steward (Luke 16:1-18)

    The problem with Chatgtp is AI also takes the parable at face value as if the object of the parable is the subject, which it is not. That's not how parables work. Parables use a substitute or something only "like" the actual subject to show a comparable truth regarding something completely...

    WHO IS THE ROCK? JESUS OR PETER

    Peter being the rock that Jesus would build His Church upon, is the "lie" causing "strong delusion" spoken of and foretold by Paul.

    The Unjust Steward (Luke 16:1-18)

    Your focus is too narrow causing a partial blindness, just as with the Pharisees. They too, only looked a the lesser matters of moral and covetousness (the unrighteous mammon)--as if it were merely about money--and now you too deride the "true riches" of the parable. The point of the parable...

    Dream About The Shaking

    Thunder. The storm is upon us.

    The Unjust Steward (Luke 16:1-18)

    "Assume much"...how so? Be specific.

    The Unjust Steward (Luke 16:1-18)

    I can speak to the context--God's greater context, and what He requires to be in His will--and I have. To the contrary, if you speak to the context of only part of the whole, then the truth becomes a lie.

    Authoritarianism - A Sign of the Coming Collapse

    No, one would have to be completely deaf and blind, or in denial, not see that Trump is actually for America and the American people.

    Authoritarianism - A Sign of the Coming Collapse

    Yes, Trump is the Commander in Chief of the fight against those deep state acts. But what you apparently do not understand, is that we (USA) is under Continuity of Government, a constitutional measure providing for covert government activities to continue while covert war is waged. This you...

    Belief

    "Belief" is the mechanism that forces us to gravitate toward who we are from--whose seed--our father the devil, or our Father in heaven. We walk out what we believe, thereby giving witness for or against ourselves before the Judgement. This is our freewill. Even so, there are those who...

    John 17:1-5 What About Its Context?

    The Priests and the Pharisees were "in a different fellowship environment" also, and they too were "partly amused at your supposed position", but of John. This is that same scenario unto the Gentiles--unto the Church. Squander the opportunity if you will. You have been served.

    The Unjust Steward (Luke 16:1-18)

    No, that would be a tail wagging the dog approach, and the error of many. To the contrary, the context is God's and may be unknown for centuries, if not even until the end. Messages from God do not require any such thing, but requires that we yield in spirit, laying down our worldly frame of...

    John 17:1-5 What About Its Context?

    Name some "appointed." Would your answer be the same for them as well--that you would "move on?" Why would any bible-believing person knowing many examples of those appointed, not rather expect "the same yesterday, today, and forever?" Has God changed, that you should now turn away from those sent?

    The Unjust Steward (Luke 16:1-18)

    Thanks it seemed curiously off...and from it, the para is indeed off. The parable of the unjust steward is like that of most parables: There is a moral, a spiritual message, and the object is never the subject. The spiritual message is this: As with Jacob, Joseph, Nehemiah, Daniel, and many...

    The Unjust Steward (Luke 16:1-18)

    Are you paraphrasing or quoting from some modern translation of the scriptures?

    Can any of you link or share a good argument against FULL preterism?

    Referring to the day that He came for the house of Israel, Jesus broke it down in this way, saying, "Behold, I cast out demons and perform cures today and tomorrow, and the third day I shall be perfected" (Luke 13:32). In which He included the coming day--the times of the Gentiles--that sheep...

    John 17:1-5 What About Its Context?

    Hi Trevor, The confusion (I'll call it that) here, is the confusion placed upon all language by God. I can tell you that the issue is that the times of this world do not allow for a proper understanding, which was not to be fully known and understood until the times are fulfilled--until "time...

    An Army On Horseback: Dream

    it is of the workings of satan

    An Army On Horseback: Dream

    That which is made manifest in the world, both good and evil is of God--not all representative of Him, but of the good and the evil that was in heaven before the world was--that it all should come to light and be revealed. In this case Trump is on the side of good, though he himself may only be...

    John 17:1-5 What About Its Context?

    But you have said you do not believe what is written of Jesus being before the world. That is a contradiction to what you have just claimed. Do you not see that?
