    How long O Lord

    ...Would that be the end [from the beginning]...or the end at the end? ;)

    The end in relation to when Christ initially returns.

    Now you make exceptions to your own error. Go figure. Moreover, while your mouth is still full of accusations, you continue in effect to take away from the words of the book of Revelation of the finish of the mystery of God promised to be well after the twelve were dead and gone at the end of...

    Parrot tells police, 'He's drunk!' and gets owner thrown in jail

    Funny! I have a police officer friend who coming home daily from being on duty would take off his gun belt and say to his pet macaw parrot, "Stick 'em up!" Which taught the macaw to say "Stick 'em up!" to anyone and everyone entering his house. :p Quite the watchdog!

    The end in relation to when Christ initially returns.

    Calling someone out by what you have been taught or by your own understanding, does not make your accusations true. On the contrary, such would be a repeat of the actions and assumptions made by the Priests and the Pharisees who caused Christ to be crucified. And again, you define an "apostle"...

    Leave The World Behind - MOVIE

    Just aired on Netflix, the movie "Leave The World Behind" (Executive Producers: Barack & Michelle Obama) depicts an end times apocalyptic scenario of an attack on America. It cites the would-be conspiracy theory of a worldwide cabal or ancient deep state or shadow government of elites and mafia...

    What did Christ mean saying, God is not the God of the dead, but of the living.

    Yes, "the dead in Christ" are those who are His who died before salvation came, while "the living in Christ" come after. Therefore it is written of Him, "I am the Beginning and the End, the First and the Last", for He was the First of the living and the Last of the dead. Of which He clarified...

    Would you surrender your own beliefs in the cause of doctrinal unity?

    1 Corinthians 12:4-14 There are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. 5 There are differences of ministries, but the same Lord. 6 And there are diversities of activities, but it is the same God who works all in all. 7 But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each one for the profit...

    The end in relation to when Christ initially returns.

    That's quite enough, but the above quote for the record.

    The end in relation to when Christ initially returns.

    I wasn't stating what I merely "believe." You missed Paul's clarification that "each one" of the chosen and saved comes into the presence of God "in his own [individual] order" or time. But no, I do not "argue" regarding what has been foretold of false prophets--or false teachers, the...

    The end in relation to when Christ initially returns.

    And if I am one sent (the meaning of the word "apostle")? Then you have blasphemed the Holy Spirit.

    The end in relation to when Christ initially returns.

    As long as you are going to accuse me--one thing at a time: You are obviously offended...after I said not to be. The truth should not offend, but often does--why? Because it goes against what someone may believe to the contrary, and yet that is the testimony of reality throughout biblical...

    The Last and Final Evil Kingdom of Daniel

    Those things are not incorrect. But you have not accurately addressed Paul's comment ("but each one in his own order") referring or clarifying that even though he had just grouped the dead and the living in Christ together to generalize and simplify his explanation--his clarification comment is...

    The Last and Final Evil Kingdom of Daniel

    I could go back and quote you--I already have. But regardless, tell me then: What do you say, what did Paul mean by "but each one in his own order?"
  14. ScottA

    The end in relation to when Christ initially returns.

    Please don't be offended--but welcome! Yet, I must say that, what you have posted above is the thinking of men (as men of the world think) through the lens of time as opposed to the timeless terms of God, by which such matters must be considered in order to have understanding. If you can...

    The Last and Final Evil Kingdom of Daniel

    That is a change in your prior claim. Good! However, it is not a matter of spirit now and physical later, but rather of what is physical first by elements followed by what is spirit only "but each in his own order"; or as it is also written, "However, the spiritual is not first, but the...

    The Last and Final Evil Kingdom of Daniel

    That may be your personal testimony. But that is not my testimony or that of the great host of witnesses who are the living, to whom Jesus has come already for thousands of years, nor that of many others also who have come into His presence "today" passing from death to life. Most assuredly, I...

    The Last and Final Evil Kingdom of Daniel

    Your above hypothesis is against Christ's own claim and rule beginning 2,000 years ago, saying, "All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth." The actual fulfillment of Daniel's prophecy is below, not after a "gap", but as Jesus said, "has been given" (past tense). After which the...

    ALL SCRIPTURE is God-breathed

    That is correct. Furthermore, God's word is under His providence and not that of man, or even the church (as the body does not rule over the Head). Even so, many church leaders are trained to the contrary, that all scripture is [not] God-breathed or inspired by God, but is first subject to...

    Why is God letting evil things happen?

    Certainly there different ways to look at the question of why God is letting evil things happen. But to understand God, it is best to first consider things according to His terms, rather than the terms of this world--which more represent the consequences rather than the cause. In other words, we...
