    Slaying Sacred Cows-- examining pet beliefs

    That moment of Satan's rebellion and falling, was his moment of conceiving evil within him...which is not to say (technically) "within God", although all things are "in God", but creates a distinction between "in us" as opposed to "in God", as He has first created us apart from Himself to only...

    Slaying Sacred Cows-- examining pet beliefs

    What you (or any of us) "believe", does not change what is true with God. The scriptures say that "all things were created by Him." But that is not the point I was making. The point is, that Jesus was and is active in this world from beginning to end, but only came in the form of a man during...

    "For he must reign until he has put all his enemies under his feet"

    That's not biblical. Not true. You have not reconciled all that is written. Thus you misunderstand and misstate what is actually written, as if some of the scriptures are lies. They are not. They are sure. It is you who is not.

    Slaying Sacred Cows-- examining pet beliefs

    I understand. Yet to reconcile all, the scriptures say that Christ was before the foundation of the world, came the first day of creation ("Let there be light", and then in the fulness of time also came in the form of a man, after which He remains the light of the world even until the end.

    Slaying Sacred Cows-- examining pet beliefs

    Technically speaking...sin (as with Satan) do not exist in heaven--that is in the presence of God, but are the fallen--thus actually outside of heaven. Meaning, they/we the fallen were even "in Christ" before the foundation of the world for which He came to die for, we fell, and were in need of...

    Slaying Sacred Cows-- examining pet beliefs

    The plurality of God is simply stated--it is. Indeed it is certainly something that can be delved into. However you actually mention two concepts, the other being the creation of the One Jesus--that is Jesus, the Son of God as coming in the midst of creation. I would suggest that before...

    Hahahah...that would make this a kind of board within a board! ;)

    "For he must reign until he has put all his enemies under his feet"

    You are adding to the scriptures and speaking against them (against God). "Tangible" is your word (and world). To the contrary, no "flesh" "inherits the kingdom of God"--it "cannot." These are the things that are actually written. And you cannot reconcile--nor have you reconciled all that is...

    "For he must reign until he has put all his enemies under his feet"

    1 Corinthians 15:25 For He must reign till He has put all enemies under His feet. The verse refers to Isaiah 66:1 "Thus says the Lord: “Heaven is My throne, And earth is My footstool." Which is to be understood as: "Then the dust will return to the earth as it was, And the spirit will return to...

    There is no 'Spiritual Only' second coming, resurrection of the dead, nor reign on earth

    My response is only "empty" to you because it is in the Spirit, thus you don't hear a word of it. Go figure. Even so, you keep saying "Lord", "Lord."

    There is no 'Spiritual Only' second coming, resurrection of the dead, nor reign on earth

    You are not getting it. You are not the first. History repeats itself: John 6:63 It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life. John 2:21 But He was speaking of the temple of His body. Matthew 16:11 How is it you do not...

    There is no 'Spiritual Only' second coming, resurrection of the dead, nor reign on earth

    It is easy to be confused when out in the weeds among the 'isms. The bottom line -- when all is said and done, the end of all things, is: "God is spirit." "God is perfect." "Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect."

    How to respond to 13-year-old daughter who declares being gay

    That is not what we are talking about. Regardless, the truth might hurt, but it is not abuse.

    How to respond to 13-year-old daughter who declares being gay

    You misunderstand. I am not arguing with you--I'm telling you. But it would be wrong of me to claim anything as coming from me.

    2 Months and 1/2 Are Left Until the Two Witnesses of Revelation Appear

    He doesn't fit the "Bill." ;) But maybe someone would like to name a star after him. Just a thought.

    How to respond to 13-year-old daughter who declares being gay

    It is good to come to their defense. But what defense is it to condone their actions against God? None. To the contrary, you are enabling them like one who gives drugs to a junky instead of a sandwich. It would be better for them if you said nothing. The point is...if you really want to help...

    How to respond to 13-year-old daughter who declares being gay

    Which then is more difficult, to go with one's feelings against what is natural and godly, or to go against one's feelings but with God? Is that not a choice?

    How to respond to 13-year-old daughter who declares being gay

    I have condemned no one, but have only stated what is true with God. As for celibates, what is a celibate but one who does not become one flesh with the Groom? I tell you (as do the scriptures), such are those who perish. If you saw that there is a third person dancing with you, you would know...

    2 Months and 1/2 Are Left Until the Two Witnesses of Revelation Appear

    Today is the day of prediction. Let the truth be known. But I tell you, the two witnesses are the flesh and the spirit, the first Adam and the Last Adam. "That ‘by the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established."...that is, by the man, the Son of Man, and by the Spirit. And...
