The scriptures as I view them, are principally a revelation of God. I don't think learning about God will ever be exhausted. I don't think the scriptures however will be the only source of understanding of course, but in context of how our lives played out and how so much of history reflected...

Hobie correctly mentioned that America, as a national entity, would erect all image to the papal beast. We see that in the scripture wording itself.... KJV Revelation 13:12-14 12 And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast (the Papal institution) before him, and causeth the earth and...

He chose to confuse people with the Bible? HE chose? There's a lot of presumption going on there. What if God chose to give the Bible as a teaching tool throughout eternity? Which would mean that a full understanding of the depths and riches of the scriptures would never be realised. On this...

Correction.... KJV Matthew 6:33 33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. Now my friend, ask yourself, even better, shall we ask God, "what is your righteousness"? He answers... KJV Deuteronomy 6:25 25 And it shall be our...

Isaiah is talking about a NT event. Peter did not, on account of that vision, pop down to the local Macca's and buy a hamburger and shout his mates a feed of scallops. Peter later explained precisely what the vision meant... That he ought not call people unclean... As they were candidates for...

You are free to have sexual relations with someone other than your wife/husband because you are "free from the law"? You are free now to worship a log of wood in the forest because that was an OT law which now doesn't exist for Christians? Does that apply to all the Ten Commandments, and all...

A couple of points. First, you will find no reference in scripture describing, pinpointing, listing, or mentioning unclean foods. Not one mention, anywhere. If God counseled anyone at all, even Noah, that certain animals were unclean, God was not saying they were food. In fact the opposite. God...

Very good Davy.

The Creator of the universe is God, but wasn't my God until I chose to accept Him as my Lord and Saviour and was born again. Then He became the God of the living. Formerly, He wasn't my God as I was dead in trespasses and sin. Satan was my god. This world was my god. Sport was my god. I was my...

Always good to have an actual biblical answer, as opposed to those that answer according to false traditions. The Bible indeed explains itself.

Sorry, but that's nonsense. So called conventional Christianity cannot validate itself... It is validated by scripture and the fruit of the Spirit. Nothing more, nothing less. In the last days, just before the second coming, there are only 2 overt groups. 1. Babylon the Great and her harlot...

Technically correct. They are asleep, waiting the resurrection.

The cost of Discipleship is absolute. Jesus did not say that we can sort of follow Him. He did not say that we can retain those things we want, but give up those things we don't want. Jesus did not say that if we keep some habits, God would understand and let them go. No. The costs of following...

They were dead? Are you sure?

I didn't say Jesus couldn't communicate with people in dreams and visions. Islamic people are being converted every day as a result of encountering Jesus... Whether it is an NDE or otherwise, doesn't matter. But what I said is true in my post. The dead cannot communicate with the living. Demons...

NDEs may be evidence of the supernatural, certainly, but nothing more. Demons can and do imitate dead relatives, speak truths regarding their lives, revealing even "secrets" unknown to anyone else except the participants. But all that is is a deception to take them mind away from Christ. You...

There is a very good satisfactory answer to that question. The study of why does God permit evil, or why do good people suffer and bad people prosper, is called theodicy. It's actually a very interesting study... But there are some screwy theories connected with it that distort the entire thing...

I think if you ask an atheist or agnostic to describe the God they don't believe in, most would describe and repeat what they have heard from Christians. I've been around the traps now for over 45 years, and the God I have heard described by most Christians, I don't believe in either.

Why be frightened of a God who died in your place and thought heaven not worth holding on to without you in it?

A crutch is totally insufficient to supply relief for the ailments He suffers from. He needs a heart transplant.
