    The Two Witnesses Will Appear in the Next New Moon

    Whatever. A clock has a "0" embedded in it and a digital clock certainly displays the first hour as 00:xx, but does not display the 12:xx hour or the 24:xx hours on its displays when in either the 12 hour display mode or the 24 hour display mode. A timeline is no different. It has a zero...

    The Two Witnesses Will Appear in the Next New Moon

    I agree with your statement that Adam lived for 930 years, but your timeline is in error starting it with year 1. If on the other hand you had labelled the transition from one year to the next year as number theory does, then the start of your timeline would be the year 0. Now in Jewish...

    The Two Witnesses Will Appear in the Next New Moon

    I have generated my own spreadsheet to establish the relativity of the events told to us in the Scriptures. The Bible is written like a novel, where the story events are given without establishing their relativity to other events. How old was Jacob when he went up to Haran to escape the...

    The Two Witnesses Will Appear in the Next New Moon

    Your spreadsheet does not provide any proof that your spreadsheet is right. Or, for that matter, your theories are also right. You are not different than Ellen J White and we know that she used the wrong signposts to establish her timelines.

    The Two Witnesses Will Appear in the Next New Moon

    Your spreadsheet does not answer the question as it makes no reference to the events in the Book of Judges. As such you are avoiding answering the question. That is so sad after your claim of being a studious student of the scriptures. It seems that you are not.

    Mathematically, a straight line as the radius of that line approaches infinity, it becomes a part of a circle.

    The Two Witnesses Will Appear in the Next New Moon

    I have, but My study was more in putting the OT events into some sort of chronological order, so that I could see the overlapping of the patriarchs in the storyline. But in doing so the chronological timeline also came into reality in this study. But that was a by-product of my study. So many...

    The Two Witnesses Will Appear in the Next New Moon

    For completeness, here is a list of Chronologists and their determination as to when they believe Adam was created. The above list was sniped from a scan of Dr Floyd Nolen Jones Book "The Chronology of the Old Testament" page 26. He acknowledges that this list is not complete. From my own...

    The Two Witnesses Will Appear in the Next New Moon

    But I asked you a simple question concerning one small part of the chronological timeline for Israel, which you have chosen not to answer. My two question were: - Your response was to bad mouth me. It confirms that you have your own axe to grind and as such the understanding that you hold to...

    Your fail to answer the question that I asked which was: - Perhaps I was not clear enough in the two questions that I asked. Shalom

    The Two Witnesses Will Appear in the Next New Moon

    To both question, "Is the earth billions of years old?" my answer is No. "Is the earth less than 6,000 years old?" my answer is No. Now what has this to do with anyone's understanding? It is a red herring and leads one into the Line upon Line, Precept upon Precept method of studying the...

    The Two Witnesses Will Appear in the Next New Moon

    Well, from my studying of the scriptures, I do not come to the same conclusion that Jesus will be judging mankind in our near future. Hosea 6:1-3 concerns the visitation of the Iniquities of the fathers upon their children and the children's children in the third and the fourth age/generation...

    The Key to all the Parables of Jesus

    When the discussion becomes personal, then it is time to withdraw. The message that you are trying to communicate to others is simply just not getting through. No point banging your head against a brick wall. I watched the Dr. Bob ?? video and came to the conclusion that he was a literalist...

    Has the gospel been preached to the whole world yet?

    Have you considered that the Gospel must go to the ends of the earth has a time component. When does the "ends of the earth" occur in our understanding? For me, my understanding is when Jesus returns and begins to judge al the peoples of the earth. After that the earth is refurbished and God...

    Theories about Abraham

    If you know the Torah section of the scriptures well, you will know that there were up to ten generations of descendant generations born while Jacob's descendants where living in Egypt for 430 years. Joshua was one such example of being the tenth descendant generation born to Ephraim who was...

    My Times are in thy hand

    My Prayer for you has not changed. I am still praying that God will include you, @amadeus, among those whom He is drawing to Himself. That you will know God's peace in your life as you rest in Him all of the time.

    The End of Material Religion

    Is there really helpful information in the video? The title of the video is, "The best 90 minutes a Christian can spend" yet it is over 2 hours long. The best time spent is with God and the time span for this should be their whole life, not just 90 minutes. Really Matthew, the title itself...

    The End of Material Religion

    Does four bumps since December last year mean that the thread has crashed and burned? Sometimes it is best to leave a thread alone if people have lost interest in. Perhaps they are not that interested in what you want to contribute to the conversation if there was one really.

    Made of Show of Them Openly

    Reminds me of the pastor's story where a person sort and acted on what he read in the scriptures. "Judas went and hanged himself." and then read, "Go and do likewise." and did so. Not everyone who read these posts are as educated as you are in religiosity or have your particular beliefs. We...

    Made of Show of Them Openly

    Ha, Mark, please consider the whole post. Since Christ has died for our sins, then if we are in Christ, through the declaration of our mouths, Satan, nor the other wicked heavenly hosts, the beasts of the field, can condemn us. Satan and the wicked heavenly hosts use people who chose to...
