You need to emphasize that the atonement by the high priest once a year was a temporary thing. It made possible a temporary connection with God. A more permanent connection would be possible only when Jesus brought the possibility of Life so that people need never to die again. Joh 11:26 And...

There is the death of the flesh and the death of the spirit. Adam and Eve died immediately when they disobeyed God, but their flesh lived on. While they lived on carnally producing physical offspring neither of them had real Life again until Jesus made it available. Was the Life Jesus brought...

Who or what is to be leading us, our lust or the Holy Spirit? When the offensive idea comes to us, if we immediately ask for His help, I do not believe we have sinned... Mt 7:7 Jas 4:3 Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts. Ask, and it...

While I hear what you are saying regarding current laws and cultural practices, some things are ultimately not OK with God. If a person lives so long serving and continues to grow, eventually in any time or culture he would eliminate all things that displease God. If he runs out of time before...

What you call P2. Since it is a matter of opinion, we can leave the discussion there.

Hezekiah may have been prideful with regard to the things he showed the visitors, but there may have been no major sin involved. He perhaps acted too quickly on his own instead of checking in with God through one of the prophets. He was one of the few kings counted as "doing right in the the...

Praying that God help DaveG stay in His will.

The question that comes to my mind for a person seemingly in a losing position, is whether or that person is growing toward God? If the answer really is, yes, then God may be pleased as He was pleased with some OT people who fell short of what God would apparently expect from a person...

Consider the following verse in accord with what you wrote here: Re 19:13 And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.

But NOT according to where I am. I disagree with your premise.

What Google or Bing or Webster's Dictionary describes as Christian doesn't go into the details of Scripture. The KJV and probably most other Bible versions only use the word, Christian three times as follows: Ac 11:26 And when he had found him, he brought him unto Antioch. And it came to...

That, of course, is between you and him,,, as I do not know. I do believe that at some point, he was the same as me in what confronted him as a man of flesh. He very simply speaking handled each situation better than I did. He always had the advantage of being the Word of God and of having no...

I certainly agree with you on this point. He qualified as a sacrifice. No one else did. See the type here: Ge 22:7 And Isaac spake unto Abraham his father, and said, My father: and he said, Here am I, my son. And he said, Behold the fire and the wood: but where is the lamb for a burnt...

How well is it that we know what was the mind of Christ? What we believe is not necessarily what we know.

Thank you for the explanation. It would be difficult if not impossible to prove that heavenly beings have a DNA... but I think I get your point.

This may be a common belief with regard to satan, but I do not see it by what I read in scripture. I am no expert but I do state carefully what I believe and what I do not. God knows. At a proper time He may let me in on more of the details. I also add for my beliefs, 'perhaps'. My doubts are...

Has any man of flesh not had such thoughts? Those our part of man's temptations. If he follows them, they become sin. If he always resists them and/or asks God for help to deal with them will they ever become sin? Jesus never yielded to his temptations. Did his temptation include lustful...

Even so... 1jo 2:16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. Certainly he is real to men who are sinning and living in darkness. But... to a man living in the Light, where is the Light...

Jesus is the Word of God. But... for 33½ years he was a man with our temptations. We all succumbed to temptation and sinned. He never did. Our standard may not be what his was, but does it not need to be? Are we not to be seeking that which he had and which he performed? Aye, that is the...

Mt 8:22 But Jesus said unto him, Follow me; and let the dead bury their dead.
