What respected scholars have you learned from if not them? It is typical when a person is cornered, can't argue on one specific phrase (time, times and half a time -NKJV), to deflect and derails it, change the subject -because you can't argue it. You didn't accelt my view so I gave two...

Right, then it would be sex outside of marriage. I don't know about you but I didn't remain a virgin for too long. Boys will be boys. What is defiled anyways? Maybe God has this huge file cabinet of names up in heaven with all the prospective candidates in mind for the 144k. He starts out with...

There are many teachers out there, here are just two I respect ... could get many that would make the same claim. ["Now, Daniel is the first of what we call apocalyptic books. It is the first book that gives a message through signs and symbols. A prophetic message of the future through signs...

Very good assessment. Let me expand on it. Soul = Mind, Will, Emotions, Personality (range of habits), talents, the invisible you. Spirit = The New Eternal you which takes all that is good of you. As the mind is highly integrated with the brain, our spirit is our purified self. We are born with...

Apparently you don't capisce! Why don't you search any reliable Pre-Millennial scholar's understanding of what "age, ages and a half an age" means - if you don't capisce the meaning of all the scriptures below. >>>>>> 3 1/2 years <<<<<< Dan. 7:25; 12:7; 12:12 These are all references to the same...

The two witnesses will be evangelists to the Jews. We may be raptured by then. I don't have a clear set order of events. It is possible that by the time every eye sees Him, it will be too late after that. Because it would not be salvation by Grace through faith, it would be by sight ... seeing...

I know, how absurd to think that heaven is that small considering that there probably have been over 15 billion people who ever lived. What would that be, 1 out of every 100k? Really narrow is the gate in their minds. Even today there are maybe 9 million JW's. Heaven is full - no one else...

I always thought persecution was an act against your beliefs/ religion. I suppose if someone witnessed you head being chopped off for believing in Christ, that may lead to their conversion - not that they would want the same. What the perpetrators are trying to do is the opposite - discourage...

Jesus mission was to go minister to the Jews, gather His remnant sheep AND train the disciples to go out to the Gentile world after He was gone. So all Jews weren't broken off and cast away, a remnant remained attached to the branch. Just the unbelieving Jews were broke off. But the grafting in...

This happens after the Millennial Kingdom. They are released for a short time to test the world once again (believers and unbelievers that are born and lived during this time). Most end time scholars interpret, "age, ages and half an age" as 3 1/2 years. We see 42 months, 1260 days, 1290 days...

I think you brought up some excellent points. Half of Christianity accept Theistic Evolution. And I do think Catholics are more in line with this view - even the Pope. The Theory of Evolution has polluted our schools for a good part of the 20th century. Prayer was taken out of the schools in the...

It wasn't meant as being the same as faith, I was just making a point about goodness. Everything that is good comes from God, including the gift of faith - you don't agree? We can lump the fruit of the spirit as all good. A person is drawn to God by goodness (as opposed to evil) in different...

He did not cast away all in entirety, just some. Those broken off at the time, like the Pharisees and places like Capernaum, Chorizan and Bethsaida. And I am sure the generations of those unbelieving Jews were cast away as well - otherwise that would conflict with salvation coming from Christ...

How could someone be a Christian without believing in these things. God is spirit, supernatural. Jesus rose from the dead, performed miracles. Again, how could one not pray and be a Christian. Through prayer we have a relationship with God. No prayer, no relationship, no change, no improvement...

Romans 11 ... Ronald's teaching! God has not cast away Israel (vs. 1, 19) He broke off the branches because of their unbelief (vs. 20) Because of their unbelief, they were blinded (vs. 7-10) Therefore, if you (unbelievers) continue in His goodness ... (22). >>>What is His Goodness? HIS Grace...

Romans 11 clearly says God has not cast away Israel (vs. 1, 19); but because of Israel's unbelief (vs. 20) and blindness (vs. 7-10), God broke off branches so that the Gentiles world ciuld be grafted in. He has a Covenant with them, has not cast them away and so their blindness continues until...

Fear not, God is in control. It is the beginning of sorrows - close to or actually in the Great Tribulation. It is a spiritual war so you need to put on your armor: Shield, Helmut and Sword. Persevere, you will get through this, it will get much worse though. Looking on the bright side of it is...

This is my statement concerning the Book of Matthew: "This was a message to the Jews who were given the knowledge of God, like the Pharisees, but since the Messiah, through their history to the present, believed in and followed the OT scriptures only but rejected Jesus and rejected Christians...

They do believe that Lucifer became Satan - it is in their scriptures. They accused Jesus of performing miracles by the power of Satan. They had a concept of Hell from the Gehenna, a perpetual burning dump for diseased and dead animals - wjere the worm does not die. You should do a study on the...

No, No, No! Those OT Hebrews who lived by faith, looked forward to their Messiah. From Abraham, the father of faith and onward, they were justified by faith. Jesus blood sacrifice and resurrection was imputed to them. However, those who rejected Him after He showed up, were not saved. Jesus...
