    Luckily for you there's no hell:

    Not quite accurate. History reveals a geopolitical and religious fulfillment of Christ's parable about the wheat and the tares. There was much genuine wheat, real Christians escaping persecution and political tyranny in the form of church state union on many levels, seeking a new land in which...

    Luckily for you there's no hell:

    That reveals an unsurprising ignorance as to what a Christian is. I don't mean that as offensive, but the perception of the world toward Christianity and those who claim that title is founded on the great counterfeit that makes the news... Not the real deal that works quietly without fanfare.

    The Changing Roll of the Church

    You know brother, we don't have a lot of time to prepare for Christ's soon coming. There is a crisis coming the likes of which this world has never seen, nor will ever see again. Much of what you currently perceive as Christian truth is not truth at all. I make no apology for that considering...

    Paul claimed 3 times that Revelation 20:4 was a current reality.

    Elijah didn't die... Moses was resurrected. Both types to what is going to take place at the second coming. Those alive that are in Christ taken, changed, those in Christ that are in their graves, resurrected.

    Paul claimed 3 times that Revelation 20:4 was a current reality.

    If it's taken literally as you would like me to do, then there are millions of people who have been sitting under an altar in heaven not permitted to speak or move until the resurrection. And some have been there for 2000 years, at least so the story goes.

    Paul claimed 3 times that Revelation 20:4 was a current reality.

    After death? The resurrection. But that isn't the issue either. We all recognize the future hope of a resurrection... Is death itself we are confused over. First example. Most believe one his straight to heaven immediately after death. Then they leave heaven and are rejoined to their bodies at...

    Paul claimed 3 times that Revelation 20:4 was a current reality.

    This isn't an amil or a premil issue. It's an occult issue, or spiritualist issue derived from paganism and embraced by Christianity that believes that the human person is naturally immortal and lives after death in the form of a disembodied soul or spirit. Repent and turn away from such...

    Everyone Who Argues Against the Deity of Jesus

    Pity. We are all called to be evangelists.

    22 major reasons to abandon the Premil doctrine

    There isa great deal I could respond to, but will reduce it all to just 2 points. First, there is clearly 2 resurrections, with 2 very different results. Second, it is likened to a harvest, which means the fruits of our works are ripe... Whether for good or for evil... And the resurrection we...

    22 major reasons to abandon the Premil doctrine

    So you are suggesting that the reformers came to their conclusions based on observation and experience? That they didn't use the scriptures to come to what they all agreed on? Were they really that shallow and superficial in their conclusions? May I suggest that they were better Bible scholars...

    22 major reasons to abandon the Premil doctrine

    Hi. Yep, seems you've settled the question once and for all. Everyone out seems is resurrected at the same time, of you ignore the scriptures that appear to state otherwise. Which begs the question however. Having everyone resurrected at the same time, being at the second coming of Jesus in...

    22 major reasons to abandon the Premil doctrine

    So the thread, as is inevitable with any eschatological topic, has evolved and wandered far away from us original premise... Amil/premil. The initial argument based on the belief that there is only one resurrection. Jesus taught that there will be two general resurrections: “Marvel not at this...

    Legalism in religion

    One very important thing to be aware of... We will be judged by our works. While our works do not save us, it is our works which will reveal in the judgement whether we are saved. The Judge looks at the evidence. Our works are evidence as to whether the works are of Christ and His righteousness...

    Legalism in religion

    In the sermon on the mount Christ exhorts His listeners to seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness. So what is the righteousness of God, and why is it so important that we are to seek it on an equal level of priority as His kingdom? James 1:22 But be ye doers of the word, and not...

    Difference between Catholic and Protestant.

    But Mary. Even if that were really Jesus and not a biscuit and you ate Him every day, that would still not be a relationship. We don't relate to reach other by consuming them as food. Those scriptures where Jesus Himself said, KJV John 6:53-58 53 Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say...

    Satan permitted by God to test mankind in the Garden of Eden / NHNE?

    So you would have the following...KJV 2 Peter 3:12 12 Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat? Destroying the new earth?
