    Now you are being confusing. Are you saying I don't believe the gifts are given to those who believe, or that the Bible doesn't teach that the gifts are given to those who believe? What exactly do you believe is a doctrine of demons? What have I flatly denied, seeing as it sounds like you are...

    War in heaven

    Interesting, but seeing as they were captives of Persia lead me to believe that every nation has an archangel over it, whether of God or of Satan. The archangel referred to as the Prince of Persia is over Persia, and Michael "your prince" is over Israel. Satan is actually referred to as the King...

    Your assumptions that the lack of mentioning tongues is what is false. Mark 16:16-18 shows that all who believe have the authorities listed, whether they use them or not. You cast those verses out of your bible and just pick and choose what you want to believe, even by your assumption that the...

    I haven't read it yet. I'll have to see what he was referring to. From what you just said it has to do with when we receive the Holy Spirit. I just use the same words that Jesus did. Acts 1: 4 And being assembled together with them, He commanded them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait...

    Do you still have them? What does he say about 1 John 1:8? I like the Weslyan commentary. I discovered that all my commentaries in my library agreed with each other and against what God has taught me, except one. And on every verse that I differ on with most, it agreed with me on all of them. It...

    I actually thought you meant Jacob Arminius, the father of Arminians. He and John Calvin lived at the same time, and though Jacob Arrminius started out a Calvinist, and stayed a Calvinist, he changed his own beliefs a bit. Someone on google wrote what they thought were the differences. I'll post...

    I can discern the difference. Personally, I must have missed the speaking to the dead you were talking about. Some of his guests he doesn't even know. And some he has known for a long time. What I like to see is how many teach something new to them that God has already taught me in the Spirit...

    Hmmmm John Calvin, Charles Taze Russell, Jakob Ammann, and Joseph Smith Calvinism Jehovahs Witnesses Amish Mormons It would be interesting to know which one you think followed Christ. Personally, I can't imagine. Now if you put John Wesley up there, he would have my vote!

    Yes, too many with religious spirits try to create formulas and interpretations that cannot be altered. I think that is why Jesus used many different methods when healing people so we wouldn't put God in a box.

    I used to speak in tongues quite often, but seeing as I can hear God's voice and understand His will for what to pray, I stopped praying in tongues, and only do so in group settings lifting up praise to God like a choir, as they did on the Day of Pentecost. But this week I watched one of my...

    Hi brother! About Jimmy Swaggart, don't forget that the gifts of God are irrevocable. That is why even though the Jews for the most part rejected Jesus, even killing their own Messiah, God is not through with their nation completely, even in the midst of their ongoing rejection (1948, 1967)...

    Right, speaking in tongues is by faith. If you don't have faith that tongues are for today, then you have a chain around your heart, so won't. But that doesn't mean you haven't been given the Holy Spirit, if, in fact, you have been baptized in the Holy Spirit. The biggest error in the church is...

    Oh right! You're the one that calls our natural tongue a supernatural gift from God and that makes three. Now along those lines, don't forget those who know and can speak many languages, but seeing as natural languages are not the real subject, you can forget I mentioned it. There are only two...

    War in heaven

    There is no such thing as a "General" tribulation. The Great Tribulation is 7 years long, and is two halves like the other times. The first one was 67BC to 60 BC, with the defilement of the temple in the middle. The second was 66 AD to 73 AD with the defilement of the temple again in the midst...

    War in heaven

    Yes, that particular 1260 days IS parallel with one of the halves. But is it the first half, or the second half? I believe the second half off the top of my head.

    Can't remember if it was you or not, but I did ask someone to explain to me how they reconcile 1 Corinthians 14:2 with their interpretation of Acts 2. Please do. I'm the only one who has so far.

    That's what I said, so I agree. And Jews were only half of the 12 million people executed.

    War in heaven

    No they are not parallel. It clearly says "CONTINUE for another 42 months." After what? The first time, times and half a time. This was the third and last 7 year period of tribulation for the Jews. Hitler doesn't count because there was no temple involved. I also don't know how many years was...

    I mentioned Pharisees because of you. They were Jews and you were arguing (oy vey) about me saying it was probably Gentile Romans that were doing the mocking, so if Jews according to you, who? Pharisees??? It was a joke, because it was getting nonsensical.
