    Why is Hell Eternal?

    . Raeneske, on 31 Dec 2012 - 11:41, said : do a study on the definition of "Eternal Fire". Hint: Sodom and Gomorrah were destroyed by that same eternal fire, which people claim burns for all eternity. One of eternal fire's interesting characteristics is that is doesn't need fuel to keep going...

    Why is Hell Eternal?

    . Justin Mangonel, on 30 Dec 2012 - 22:55, said : "how is the lake of fire just?" What is the crime that fits this terrible punishment? Figuring out why the second death is permanent is easy enough. It's because there's only one resurrection allotted per person (Dan 12:2, John 5:29). But I...

    responding to shooting.

    . One of my favorite illogical arguments goes something like this: If banning guns would save just one child's life, don't you think it would be worth it? My answer of course is NO and the reason is: a well-armed citizenry is a strong deterrent to both tyranny and foreign invasion. In other...

    responding to shooting.

    . My wife is a kindergarten teacher. All the doors in her school building are secure except for the one up by the front office. She and all the other teachers feel like sitting ducks because they are not allowed to bring any kind of weapon in the building for self defense, not even so much as a...

    Gun control vs. Shooter control

    . It's ironic that the majority of America's adults have a constitutional right to bear arms. And gun sales have skyrocketed in the past decade. But when demented males show up at malls, and churches, and schools, and movie theaters, and fast food restaurants; and start executing people at...

    Why would the Creature Await in Earnest Expectation?

    . †. 2Pet 3:16 . . Some of Paul's comments are hard to understand, and those who are untaught and vacillating have twisted his letters around to mean something quite different from what he meant, just as they do the other parts of Scripture-- and the result is disaster for them. Peter was one...

    Gen 50:10-26

    †. Gen 50:10 . .When they came to Gorena ha-Atad, which is beyond the Jordan, they held there a very great and solemn lamentation; and he observed a mourning period of seven days for his father. A geographic location described as "beyond the Jordan" suggests the east side of the river but the...

    Gen 50:1-9

    †. Gen 50:1 . . Joseph threw himself upon his father's face and wept over him and kissed him. It almost looks like Joseph smothered his dad; but in reality that scene was probably a bit difficult to put in writing because there's so much emotion. I think what we're actually looking at there is...

    Gen 49:22-33

    †. Gen 49:22 . . Joseph is a wild burro, a wild burro by a spring-- wild colts on a hillside. That sentence has been translated at least two other ways, totally different than the above's 1985 JPS Tanakh. (1) A charming son is Joseph, a charming son to the eye (Stone Tanach) (2) Joseph is a...

    Gen 49:16-21

    †. Gen 49:16 . . Dan shall govern his people, as one of the tribes of Israel. That prediction alludes to Dan's autonomous attitude towards the other tribes. In point of fact, Dan's tribe didn't join forces with the others in the north to help repel oppressors. (Jdg 5:17) A good example of...

    Gen 49:8-15

    †. Gen 49:8 . .You, O Judah, your brothers shall praise; your hand shall be on the nape of your foes; your father's sons shall bow low to you. Reuben was the original ranking brother, then the position passed to Joseph, and finally to the family of Judah's grandson David; and that's where it...

    Gen 49:1-7

    †. Gen 49:1-4 . . And Jacob summoned his sons and said: Come together that I may tell you what is to befall you in days to come. Assemble and hearken, O sons of Jacob; hearken to Israel your father: . . . Reuben, you are my first-born, my might and first fruit of my vigor, exceeding in rank and...

    Gen 48:16c

    †. Gen 48:16c . . may He bless the lads. Jacob himself was blessed by The Angel in Gen 32:24-29. Webster's defines "bless" as 1) to speak well of; viz: approve, 2) to confer prosperity or happiness upon, 3) to protect, to preserve, 4) to endow, and 5) to favor. I suppose there's a middle...

    Gen 48:8-16b

    †. Gen 48:8a . .When Israel At this point, Genesis switches from Jacob's earthly name to his Heaven given name; possibly because the first portion of the interview was personal business while the second half will be conducted in Jacob's official capacity as a prophet. The Hebrew word for...

    Could Jesus have failed?

    . Hezekiah, on 05 Dec 2012 - 19:31, said : I was always under the impression that the sin was passed on by the father in the semen. I was alwas told that it was the semen that determined the blood of the fetus. God was the Christ's father. There was no sin in Christ's blood, no sin of the...

    Could Jesus have failed?

    . Mungo, on 05 Dec 2012 - 07:02, said : Paul was referring to Jesus after his Resurrection That's not what the Bible says. That's your interpretation of what you think the Bible says. Mungo, on 05 Dec 2012 - 07:02, said : in Philippians Paul writes The correct interpretation of Php 2:9-11 is...

    Gen 48:1-7

    †. Gen 48:1a . . Some time afterward, Joseph was told: Your father is ill The Hebrew word for "ill" is chalah (khaw-law') and can mean not only sick, but also weak (Judg 16:17) sad (1Sam 22:8) suppliant (1Kgs 13:6) injured (1Kgs 22:34) in pain (Jer 4:31) drunk (Hos 7:5) and evil: as disaster or...

    Could Jesus have failed?

    . David's seed was in Christ (Rom 1:3) and based upon all the history written about David and his progeny in the Old Testament; I think we can be reasonably sure that Christ would have both failed and sinned had he been born only of man rather than of both God and man. The Watchtower Society is...

    spirit body vs. spiritual body

    . Hezekiah, on 04 Dec 2012 - 15:30, said : There's still those two scriptures I posted that says "invisible" aren't there. Too bad we can't just throw them away. The scriptures are fine.
