The biblical definition of a generation would indeed be 40 years. Which over the many uses of 40 years, is established by the forty years of wandering in the desert before the next generation entered the promised land...the math of which is only determined by the spiritual meaning of that...

Excellent! The point I was making, however, is that the use of "thee" or "thou", "singular", shows the word to be to the church as individuals, rather than as a group (as if they all "received and heard" the saving message of Christ all at the same moment). Which then collaborates Paul's...

You don't need to do anything. In fact doing nothing would be better for you. But no, you claimed that God was not speaking through me--like you would know, like you knew anything. And I don't need to validate anything. You are owed nothing. If you don't like hearing the wind, plug your ears...

I am well aware. But don't think for a minute that those who falsely accuse those actually sent by God are subject to any lesser consequence.

The words were not my words, nor was I the One who "mingled" them or spoke them. God's word is His own providence--and He alone decides by His own choosing who speaks the truth from Him. Question is: Why have you come out with swords and clubs, as those who killed the prophets of God and...

"Thee" is John in the passage. However, the passage is not only about John. In other words, under the context of revelation to the churches, John's experience of salvation is an example, which was to John as an individual--not as a massive group. Which was given to John to be a part of his...

False. It is not a litmus test based on your presence and relationship with God. The reason people suffer with evil, is because we live in a fallen world where there is darkness and light at every turn.

God and His Word are simply One and the same. You have heard the saying "my word is my bond", and certainly even people can authenticate themselves without seemingly being actually present--by fax, facetime, etc., not a problem. And certainly not impossible for God.

False. This is question and answer not meant for babes in Christ, but for the mature. But the answer is: Time and the timeline of this would-be history is and illusion created to reveal an immense about of Godly truth "precept upon precept, line upon line, here a little there a little" in...

The doctrine of Christ, is that salvation comes through Him alone.

God is just assuring that there is no possibility of someone first being called by Him, that will prosper. In other words, God, not men, are in control of what comes from God, and even what does not.

The answer is: Adam didn't have a mother, but was created.

Welcome! God has simply shown you, taught you, on a path of contrast. First the snobby side which He does not like any more than you, then the ugly side of life without Him and the hope that only comes with Him. Keep reading. Don't worry about fully understanding, God will take care of what...

Does that sound like a massive group event? "Thee" is singular.

Are YOU God then, that YOU should tell me I am wrong, AND that He Himself was incorrect in saying His Holy Spirit would indeed speak through those sent? What is your answer?

@BarneyFife and all, These matters are ages old, so I will be direct and perhaps blunt: A lot of what you or the SDA have surmised is helpful, and yet some is not, but completely in error. What I mean, is you have gathered from the forest more than from the tree, from the secondary and the...

Yes. Soup or Salad? Yes.

Many are the images of God and His relationship and purpose of humanity, for which the heavens and earth were created--even the images of the new heavens and new earth and New Jerusalem. Everything made manifest or spoken of in parable is not what shall be according to the worldly image, but...

Yes, man created in God's image, Christ the firstfruits: Man is an "image" of God.
