Thanks for your reply, Nancy. My perspective on the Book of Revelation is that it reveals "The Perfect Completion Of God's Plan" using lots of imagery, symbolism, metaphors, similies, sequences and representations. When I read about the seven stars in the right hand of Christ, and the seven...

Hi Nancy. I wonder if you are familiar with the term and principle of "the harmony of Scripture"? Sometimes we use theological terms as a handle, making a number of harmonious biblical references easier to discuss under the same heading as it were. The Bride of Christ is one such term as befits...

Hi charity. Your continued assertions and their implications lead me to refer you to Galatians 3. If this doesn't make it clear to you that the body of Christ is in a coventant relationship with Him then I can only hope and pray for your enlightenment. Gal 3:1-29 (1) O foolish Galatians! Who...

Hi charity. One thought that comes to mind concerns the need in both Old and New Covenants for blood to be shed. You can stick to your premise that Gentiles in the Body of Christ are not included in the New Covenant if you want, but sadly you will have to remove Ephesians 2:11-22 from your...

A very simple solution, no need to get bogged down, the ekklesia is the correct term for the called out one's who gather together in the name of Christ. King James Bible For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.

It was 9pm and my wife and I were settled in our armchairs watching a TV series when we heard a loud knocking on our door. It was a young man of 27 years who lived down the road. I had been sharing Scriptural truth with him on occasions as he passed by, and now, while the flesh was saying "How...

Hi soul man. Some good thoughts in your post. These verses come to mind. 2Ti 1:6 (6) Wherefore I put you in remembrance that you stir up the gift of God, which is in you by the putting on of my hands. Heb 13:16 (16) But do not forget to do good and to share, for with such sacrifices God is...

The backstory to Christ's earthly ministry, and the accounts of the environment He was in should be examined in order to better appreciate the person, presence, and preaching of our Lord and Saviour. The expectation of a Messiah that would rid Israel of foreign rule and restore it to prominence...

Into chapters and verses of course...everyone knows that. :)

This thread is about ILLUMINATION, without which there is only DARKNESS. The Lord's coming will be with BRIGHTNESS, and how effective it will be in destroying OPPOSITION. 2Th 2:8 (8) And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall...

I don't claim to be anything other than a born-again Spirit-filled Bible-believing follower of Christ, and here are two Scriptures that lead me to believe God is Three Persons in One. Joh 14:15-17 (15) If you love me, keep my commandments. (16) And I will pray the Father, and he shall give...

The Lamb of God is Jesus Christ, who is One with the Father and the Holy Spirit. That makes 3 Persons in the Godhead. Col 2:8-9 (8) Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ. (9) For in...

That's who God is, three Persons in One Col 2:8-9 (8) Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ. (9) For in him dwells all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.

Hi mjrhealth. How can water be liquid, solid, and gas and still be water?

Ignoring ad hominem fallacies, Jay, and focusing on the illogical assertion I am refuting, that the Man of Sin is Satan, how do your beliefs of chronology prove this obvious false notion which you seem to be in support of?

Rev 20:5-6 (5) But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection. (6) Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall...

Here's a verse that identifies Jesus Christ as God who is the One and Only Almighty. Rev 1:8 (8) I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, says the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty. PICJAG is an acronym 101G uses to sign off with on a number of...

My understanding isn't flawed...just doesn't match the unscriptural idea that the Man of Sin is Satan himself. Certainly the coming of the M of S is after the working of Satan, but the fact remains there are three distinct individual entities who combine forces against Christ and His Saints...

Sadly, you are irrefutably in error about this, Base12. You cannot reconcile the Man of Sin(aka False Prophet/2nd beast from the earth/that Wicked) being a "reincarnation" of Satan, since the Man of Sin/False Prophet is cast into the Lake of Fire whilst Satan is bound and sealed in the Abyss for...

This thread could be edyfying. Thanks for starting it 101G. I "understand" you contribute to numerous Christian-oriented internet forums so you will know how rarely a consensus of opinion is arrived at. Fortunately blessings come from reading, hearing, and keeping the contents of the Book of...
