2 Chronicles 7:12-22: - God’s Second Appearance to Solomon 12 Then the Lord appeared to Solomon by night, and said to him: “I have heard your prayer, and have chosen this place for Myself as a house of sacrifice. 13 When I shut up heaven and there is no rain, or command the locusts to devour...

Yer, everyone gets to enter the Great White Throne Room in Heaven, where the judgement of each individual takes place, but there everyone is separated out into the righteous and the unrighteous. The righteous are then invited to enter further into the heavenlies and the refurbished earth, but...

Since the circumference of the earth at the equator is around 40,000 km your statement above is in error, your relative velocity is around 40,000/24 km/hr ͌ 1670 km/hr at the equator. If we add the 4 km/hr you are walking towards the east then your relative speed at the equator is 1,674...

Perhaps, but "deilos" could also be understood to have the meaning of "no backbone" such that Rev 21:8 could be understood as: - "But those who have no backbone and are not real believers, they are an abomination unto the Lord, they are murderers, and prostitute themselves to other gods and...

Signs of old age:-

So you are excusing him because he is old. I too am of an older person, who has spent time looking at the original context of the original texts from which our translations have been generated from. It is my contention that our present translations leave a lot to be desired because of the many...

It does not. Babylon has already infiltrated the church.

Ah! @Jack when Satan and the four beasts and the little horn/False Prophet are imprisoned in the bottomless pit along with the judged kings of the earth in our near future, then God will gather all of Israel to Himself from around the earth and plant them in the fertile field of Christ found...

I thought that it was the New Zealanders that purposely went out to find dead possums to eat in their hot baked possum pies.

@Jack Amos 9 is set for a distant future time. AMOS 9: - The Destruction of Israel 9:1 I saw the Lord standing by the altar, and He said: "Strike the doorposts, that the thresholds may shake, And break them on the heads of them all. I will slay the last of them with the sword. He who...

Thankyou

Ah! Marks, your understanding is as the translations suggest, however Moses and the Prophets presented a very different view of what God was going to do when He begins to gather them once more to Himself. God's promise is that He would plant them in the fertile soil of Israel, His faithful...

Dear Joe, In the above passage, I highlighted the changes that I see are needed in the verses by reducing the visibility of the words which I believe do not convey the context of the original Hebrew text and bolding the words which I feel convey provide a better contextualisation of what the...

Putting this one verse into the context of the passage in which it is found: - Ezekiel 18: 19-31: - Turn and Live 19 "Yet you say, 'Why should the son not bear the guilt of the father?' Because the son has done what is lawful and right, and has kept all My statutes and observed them, he...

Yep, that may explain a lot. The old pennies, shillings and pound joke back in my childhood was that the paid-up capital of the state of Victoria was "free and free," which was a corruption of three shillings and threepence. In other words, Victoria and the words of wisdom emulating from that...

What I am receiving from the OP is that the Beasts of Daniel 7 are in fact fallen heavenly hosts and that they cause the respective beasts' dominate evil characteristic to become manifested in mankind, which we are able to see fulfilling the beasts' directives here on the face of the earth...

Ezekiel 18 is talking about the second death judgement. This only happens when all of mankind stands before the Lord in the Great White Throne Room, to be judged and as Ezekiel 18 states, people are only judged for their own sins and not the sins of their children or their fathers, The Exodus...

Isa 58 goes on to say this: - 6 “Is this not the fast that I have chosen: To loose the bonds of wickedness, To undo the heavy burdens, To let the oppressed go free, And that you break every yoke? 7 Is it not to share your bread with the hungry, And that you bring to your house the poor who are...

You could call sackcloth and ashes make up when you fast. In Isa 58 the prophet wrote this: - 5 Is it a fast that I have chosen, A day for a man to afflict his soul? Is it to bow down his head like a bulrush, And to spread out sackcloth and ashes? Would you call this a fast, And an acceptable...

Words do matter, but it is often our egos that responds by either dismissing what another speaks or receiving what has been said. One should be wise in quoting scripture in that the pruning of the scriptures, one often removes the context of what has been written. Below is an example of this...
