    How long O Lord

    At the same time the Lamb who is God came riding a white horse which is always symbolic of purity and righteousness (which is what the white robes symbolize) there came also the other three that in various ways are symbolic of the ones who cause all manner of evil and death. They are red, black...

    Romans 11 and the real Replacement Theology

    This is why we become so confused between spirit and soul. A soul is what mankind is as long as there is life. That life in humans is both eternal spiritual life we have when the Holy Spirit is within us after we physically die, and physical life we have as long as our body has breath. Both...

    Romans 11 and the real Replacement Theology

    I agree the two are related, however the spirit is within, and a living soul is what mankind became when breath came into our body through spirit within.

    More Evidence The End Is Near

    Just as all of humanity are through Adam's seed sons/daughters of Adam, and as natural, physical descendants we too take part in Adam and share in sin that leads unto death, so too all from humanity who are of the Seed (Christ) supernaturally, have part in Him and share in His resurrection that...

    More Evidence The End Is Near

    But what you're missing Freedm is how "this generation" alive during the first generation AD was a mixture of "this generation" Christ was speaking directly to, and "this generation" who were indeed wicked and of their father the devil. You yourself know that Christ was speaking to His...

    How long O Lord

    Marty, the verse says, "her child was caught up to God, and to His throne." Christ did not ascend up to God and His throne through His Spirit, not as a baby, but after His crucifixion. And forty days later after resurrecting from the grave, Christ was seen physically ascending to heaven in a...

    The Atonement: What did it REALLY Accomplish?

    John's baptism was never for the forgiveness of sins, it was to prepare the way for Jesus who would baptize with the Holy Spirit all who believed and repented of their sins. John's mission was to go before Jesus to give knowledge of salvation through the Lord by the remission of their sins...

    The Atonement: What did it REALLY Accomplish?

    These two verses don't appear to agree with you. John's baptism was not for forgiveness of sins, it was given that they might repent/be sorrowful for their sins. Mark 1:8 (KJV) I indeed have baptized you with water: but he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost. Matthew 3:11 (KJV) I indeed...

    How long O Lord

    Marty, there is nothing in the passage to indicate a break in the timing of Christ's birth and the war in heaven when Satan and his angels were cast to the earth. When Christ says "Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out" He was talking about Satan...

    More Evidence The End Is Near

    Let's try this another way. If the Gospel of the Kingdom of God had been preached in all the world to be a witness unto all nations, why wasn't the Kingdom of God complete in 70 AD? Was the Gospel of the Kingdom preached not able to do what Christ came to do, since it was sent in the power of...

    More Evidence The End Is Near

    This all began to take place when Christ ushered in the spiritual Kingdom of God, that will not be complete until the Gospel of the Kingdom has been preached in all the world as a witness to all nations. I know the Preterit uses verses found in Scripture saying the Gospel has been preached in...

    More Evidence The End Is Near

    According to what is written to be fulfilled was not fulfilled in 70 AD. For example it is written: Matthew 24:31 (KJV) And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other. Why were...

    Free-will vs No Free-will (God knows everything?)

    Yes, as Paul shows us where the Spirit is (within you) there is liberty or freedom. What about where the Spirit is not found, does mankind in unbelief also have the same liberty?

    Free-will vs No Free-will (God knows everything?)

    While I agree with much of what you've said here, would you say that mankind descending from Adam & Eve still has freedom of will to choose good or will they always naturally choose evil?
  15. R

    Free-will vs No Free-will (God knows everything?)

    I believe mankind is always free to choose whatever is according to their nature. In the beginning when God created man with the freedom to obey him or not. What were the consequences for mankind after man heeded the voice of the serpent (evil) and disobeyed God?

    Who is the AntiChrist? (Identifying Him)

    Hmmm, interesting! Something to chew on. Wishing you also an awesome day and a very Merry Christmas!

    How long O Lord

    Marty there are two groups of people who are saved by the blood of the Lamb. Those, who are the Old Covenant remnant saved according to election of grace, who looked to the future for the prophecy of the Messiah/Savior who was to come to be fulfilled. The other group are those who are saved...

    Who is the AntiChrist? (Identifying Him)

    Can't deny that, there is a host of them ejected from heaven to the earth with him when Christ was born. They are the demonic hosts, the messengers of Satan, "And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into...

    How long O Lord

    Yes, this Psalm in particular makes reference to "the son of man" being made lower than the angels and being crowned with glory and honor. But from the Old Testament there is nothing written to prove they knew the son of man as Jesus. David, clearly knew of a son of man that would be born is...

    Understanding : Born of Water vs Born AGAIN

    You are partially correct! I agree water will not forgive sins. Where in Scripture can we find proof of God giving forgiveness of sins apart from the Holy Spirit baptism that Christ provides? Man is forgiven of all sin and been born again only through Christ!
