    The Fire That Consumes - Does Hell Burn Forever?

    Actually your church translates the Hebrew word, Sheol as grave. Most theologians translate it as Hades, the underworld, netherworld, plaYou do say people just go in the grave when they die, right? You must know that many Christians believe you have a soul/spirit that is conscious when you die...

    The Fire That Consumes - Does Hell Burn Forever?

    SDA are by themselves a Truth is truth ... and with all the disagreements on this forum on just about any topic, it gets kind of hidden, little morsels here and there that you have to sift through. "This one is right on this issue", then opps, "that comment isn't" ... and who can judge? We...

    NO Politics Allowed

    April, just a reminder, the quotes below are attached to every one of your posts ... if you don't want to be political, maybe remove them for now. "If a Liberal tells you that they stand for a free country they are most likely lying." "Joe Biden is NOT President Elect, he's president...

    "the prince that shall come..." (Dan. 9:26)

    You remind of the Left Wingers out there that just attack people, call them names and are mean spirited. Are you on the LEFT? I just get all this hatred from your posts. Try to have a little gentleness and kindness for a change - the fruit of the Spirit. Of course you need the Spirit for that...

    NO Politics Allowed

    April Rose, You can't sweep all this under the carpet, because the elephant in the room can't fit under there. I understand, you a disappointed, I am too. But by all means, a safe haven is a good defense mechanism, live your life as well as you can and avoid negativity for as long as you can...

    "the prince that shall come..." (Dan. 9:26)

    I take it you didn't pass arithmetic in school? Scholars agree that the 70 weeks = 70 weeks of years = 490 years. "There shall be seven weeks and sixty-two weeks;" ... "then after the 62 weeks, Messiah will be cut off". Logic alone would understand that Jesus will be cut off after the 69 weeks...

    The Fire That Consumes - Does Hell Burn Forever?

    Barney, It is acceptable and caring for you to share your view of the afterlife in Sheol, which btw is deeper than the grave and not Hell (The Lake of Fire); but you should state that this is Seventh Day Adventist Theology up front. They are an accepted denomination, with quite different views...

    "the prince that shall come..." (Dan. 9:26)

    At least we agree on something. I am a Mid-Trib/Pre-Wrath rapture adherent myself. Additionally, I don't find this requirement of a New Temple to be built with sacrifices and such - It would be ungodly, since Christ sacrifice made the Temple obsolete. Why would He allow that especially when He...

    "the prince that shall come..." (Dan. 9:26)

    The people were the Romans. Or course in the Bible there are prophecies that have a duel nature, literal and symbol or can be applied to different periods of time. Information describing Antiochus Epiphanes (which means the illustrious one, god manifest) can be applied to the coming Antichrist...

    "the prince that shall come..." (Dan. 9:26)

    I do not believe in fables, myths or lies. These days, that is consigned to Democrats with their alternate reality and fake news. :) Very delusional world they live in! Ignoring scripture ... disobeying ... suffering consequences? You are off base and rude. My commentary was my own, I did not...

    "the prince that shall come..." (Dan. 9:26)

    If I must research the word observed to understand a whole chapter and that chapter is dependent that one word for discernment, than I might as well throw the book into the ocean. Discernment comes by the Holy Spirit. Exegesis is important though and I do that as well, but not with every word. I...

    "the prince that shall come..." (Dan. 9:26)

    Yes, I've heard the story, the calculation that amounts 483 years to the day Jesus road in on a donkey. I have also read that those calculations are off. It is also likely the calendar itself is off and He was born in 3 B.C. So you hold to the Gap theory and are Post Trib? Thats fine. I learned...

    "the prince that shall come..." (Dan. 9:26)

    I consider myself a literalist. I practically quoted the entire chapter, taking each line literally Where did I use symbolism? Eh, dogs have a difficult time understanding ...

    "the prince that shall come..." (Dan. 9:26)

    Really, the beginning of His ministry wasn't a significant day in history? Gabriel's timeline was intended to focus on the most important event that the Jews hoped for - the coming if the Messiah. There are said to be 300 prophecies of His first coming and this was one of them, a date given to...

    "the prince that shall come..." (Dan. 9:26)

    It is clear if one reads the entire chapter, Daniel’s 70 weeks is a prophecy about Jerusalem, all of Israel, the Messiah’s First Coming and later, the destruction of Jerusalem. I, Daniel, observed in the books the number of the years which was revealed as the word of the Lord to Jeremiah the...

    Colossians 2:14-16 - The Law That Was Against Us

    The Ten Commandments were the beginning, the foundation of the Law which amounted to 613 laws. The Law gives us an idea of what sin is and so the Ten Commandments aren't abolished, they remain there for the world to understand what sin is. As far as the other commandments in the Torah, they do...

    BREAKING Looks Like Mike Pence Is Going To Save America!!! :D

    You are absolutely correct. Romans 13:1-2 confirms this, I have been trying to convey this for months. Apart from what you conveyed, I would add this and it is not iron clad, just my view: Judgment Day is near. I think we are in it already - especially if it is a 7 year Great Tribulation...

    Anyone Going to DC Next Week

    Cut off the head of the snake and freeze his assets and Antifa will dissipate. They know that George Soros has given $150+ million to fund these anarchists. He contributed $33 million to ignite Ferguson and more to each and every disruptive divisive and damaging protest for decades. This is his...
