    What is being pointed to in the following scfriptures?

    The Kingdom of Heaven was at hand. When Jesus fulfilled His mission and died for our sins and rose on the third day, He opened up the kingdom of heaven, spiritually making it available. He ascended to the Father and was given all authority in heaven and on earth. They witnessed Him coming into...

    Christ's Birth - Sept. 11, 3 BC

    Right, which suggests an angel - since there were angels present at his birth. ?? I guess that will be one of the many questions we'll have for Him when we get there.

    Christ's Birth - Sept. 11, 3 BC

    It was merely flipping through pages on the net, doing a search and came across this article/study that interested me. I read It and 15 minutes later, I shared it. It sounded plausible. I am not an astronomer, nor could really verify the information. It has just always been an unsolved mystery...

    You don't have to spend any time with any issue they you feek is irrelevant.

    What is implied here

    The world's recognition of Mary as Jesus' mother and as being blessed has been received. Blessed means happy. We are all blessed to receive the Lord. She just received Him physically by the ordination of God, given a message from an angel that she had been chosen for a very special purpose. She...

    Christ's Birth - Sept. 11, 3 BC

    Angels are also called stars. Could have been angel. But then angels have always been identified and announced, why would this time be different? Numbers 24:17 is actually a reference to the morning star, Jesus. If it was God the Father. The shekinah glory, why say it was a star. Another...

    Christ's Birth - Sept. 11, 3 BC

    Passover, Nisan 14, in 30 AD was on a Friday. That makes sense. It couldnt be in 31 AD, Nissan 14 was on a Wednesday. Then I guess the next question is, do we know if Jesus was 33 1/2 years old when He was crucified? Only a Levite Priest was required to be 30 years old, Jesus wasn't..He was...

    Christ's Birth - Sept. 11, 3 BC

    This is not my bubble, it is a constellation in the sky on a certain date (which have been observed as signs). I never said I was sure about this. I think it is plausible. And yes, I know stars don't move independent from the galaxy and that is why some suggest it wasn't a star, but a planet. It...

    Protestantism is a sin....

    YOU ARE SINNING RIGHT NOW, BEARING FALSE WITNESS AGAINST YOUR NEIGHBORS. You continually attack Prostestants, believers in Christ, who put their faith in God and are MEMBERS OF THE BODY OF CHRIST. HOW DARE YOU? SHAME IN YOU. You begin threads with these attacks and then seek to justify your...

    Christ's Birth - Sept. 11, 3 BC

    Gen. 1:14 tells us the sun, moon and stars are also used for signs. A constellation and a star (likely the planet Jupiter) were used by the Magi. According to a sign in the Heavens in Rev. 12:1,2 ( in which a this constellation appeared around Jesus Birth), Jesus was born on Sept. 11, 3 BC ...

    A sign which shall be spoken against:

    I agree. How about after the 40 days in the desert? "Then the devil leaveth him, and, behold, angels came and ministered unto him." Matthew 4:11 Also angels came down and moved the stone from the tomb.

    A sign which shall be spoken against:

    No I didn't. I said that literally, one was a dream and the other a spiritual vision pertaining to the spiritual realm, where angels ascend and descend. They are invisible to us unless they materialize. The word spiritualize is to take something that should be understood literally and say it...

    Question no Protestant can answer

    Your response is incoherent and scriptures not applicable. Make your own faith ... salvation? What are you talking about. My comment was directed at the very scripture you presented which apparently just went over your head. The eunich had to first believe in his heart that Jesus died for our...

    A sign which shall be spoken against:

    Spiritualizing scripture can go anywhere your imagination runs. Just take scripture literally, unless it implies to do otherwise. Angels descending and ascending, attending to Jesus or receiving us are angels ascending and descending ... simple as that. Example of symbolic language: A dragon...

    Question no Protestant can answer

    It's funny, coming from a Catholic, how within the very scripture of the OP, lies the qualifications of water baptism and the disqualification of infant baptism: "And as they went on their way, they came unto a certain water: and the eunuch said, See, here is water; what doth hinder me to be...

    “For many are called, but few are chosen.”

    Excellent study! You could also add this scripture: "The one who overcomes will be clothed the same way, in white garments; and I will not erase his name from the book of life, and I will confess his name before My Father and before His angels." Rev. 3:5

    A sign which shall be spoken against:

    About Gen. 27:12 & John 1:51 It is a spiritual vision of the spiritual dimension which we dont physically see. We will all see heaven open when we die and we will see angels descend and get us, (receive our spirits) and ascend with them into heaven. If you suddenly died in a car crash, (or...

    Question no Protestant can answer

    You started it: I do, just not the ability to see into hundreds of millions of people's heart's everyday, reading their deepest thoughts, desires and needs, since they are all not being specific about what they want after repeating empty Hail Marys. Mary must be a pretty good mind reader -...

    Why do we doubt….

    Doubt is uncertainty of the present or future. We all experience failures with everything and everyone. Promises are not kept ... The weather reports are wrong. John said he would be here and he stoid you up. When we are assured of something and that promise is kept for a long time, we doubt...

    Question no Protestant can answer

    Who else can hear and answer the prayers of a billion people? You must be ignorant of you can't figure that out. And your ignorant comparison of the Ark of the Covenant with Mary - is that really a doctrine that Catholics teach - who thought of that? So Mary is a type of Ark. Elm ... should have...
