Was the hand of the man signing the document...orange? :Broadly:

No...and the difference is...I made no accusations, only observations, taking care not to make things personal.

Like I was saying... And there is that "repeat accusation" fruit. "For wherever the carcass is, there the eagles will be gathered together" (Matthew 24:28).

Oh geez... When I said "HERE"...I was not referring to YOU, but to "HERE" on Christianity Board in general.

Correction: I should have included "lying" also.

THIS IS A GOOD THING TO REMEMBER WHEN THINGS GET HEATED HERE: The "bad fruit" is name calling, and repeated accusations, etc.

This is a huge topic. Perhaps for a different thread. Christ came ushering in the kingdom of God but set before the church a fork in the road (life and death, blessing and cursing--as Moses also did before Israel). Which He clearly stated as His church being built "not" by "flesh and blood"...

The merchant found God.

A big fish feeds many, likewise a great pearl.

Speaking of breasts :innocent: These are all parables. Just as the bread of life is not actual bread, or even words on paper, all of creation is a revelation in parables. Breasts, like the two fishes, are a parable of the two folds gathered by Christ. The five loaves were but half of all...

The god of this world is dead, and the wealthy mourn.

Yes, there are nuances that may even be attributed to other sources. But over all such, is God, who created all the world: First the natural and afterward the spiritual, that we might pass from death to life everlasting.

Interesting. You are on the cusp...but there is a proper way of proceeding. It must be done with focus, focus on that One way which God has orchestrated. Care must be taken to avoid the present context of this world--you more or less said that--which, if we are not careful, can be the baseline...

Most are looking at it all wrong. Tribulation is the wrath of God. To take the position of "post" or "pre" tribulation is self-centered, rather than Christ-centered. Either position is a denial that all tribulation--all of God's wrath was placed upon Christ at the cross. As for "tribulation"...

Yes, many take away the key of knowledge, as if the word of God were only literary.

Those times of Israel, and of the past--those times of the natural attempting to do righteously, only proved us, the natural born of flesh and blood, to be incapable, thus fulfilling "By the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in His sight." Even so, the call--the call and...

Indeed. The parable/metaphor given in natural food, is not what is actually referred to, but the heavenly. Why then should we turn to the ground--the world where there are only crumbs--as so many do, rather than looking up?

Luke 21 is better...but commonly misunderstood...although it is not exclusively referring to the USA. “But when you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, then know that its desolation is near. 21 Then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains, let those who are in the midst of her depart...

Great answer! People have a way of spoiling a good thing. I mean, there is only one continual ribbon of truth in all of recorded history of God interacting with people, as a witness to the greater truth of life...and most have turned it into a circus or cult-like club. I recommend seeking God...

Many have come to prefer the crumbs and the ground over meeting the Lord in the air.
