    This world and the wicked are going up in a puff of smoke when Jesus come - thus negating Premil

    I wouldn't say Revelation 20 is a boring mantra at all. I would say however it is misappropriated and conflated with other texts inappropriately.....ultimately resulting in out of context conclusions. The thing is, this process is as old as time and unless there is self honesty (which is the...

    Walking In Faith By the Word of God!

    just to throw in a wobbly, does anyone actually obey the Law? I don't mean approve of it cognitively, I mean actually keep it as it is designed/ intended? 'We all offend in many things' James 3:2 tells us......and this is not just in the things we are aware of, it includes things that are not...

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

    Thought history there have always been at least two witnesses. Witnesses to what? Witnesses to God's character. It is God's character which is being maligned from before the creation of the world. It is God's character which is being vindicated. Here are examples of two witnesses; Jesus and the...

    Open Discussion of UR Chapter Five - When Was Hell Invented?

    Open Discussion of UR Chapter Five - When Was Hell Invented? 2023?....no? let me try again, 1939-1945?....I knew something wasn't right, maybe AD 73... the sacking of Masada? Now I'm confused, I s'pose God just couldn't resist a barbecue and invented it a few thousand BC before he created...

    Theories about Abraham

    Abraham and Sarah were types of the incarnation in the sense that Isaac was a miracle child and the rite of circumcision given was a symbolic cutting off of the male member to indicate that God doesn't require man's seed to fulfil his promises. I wonder whether God told Abraham to sacrifice his...

    Evidence witnessing to truth is all around us yet who has eyes and ears to see and hear? It is often there in the least expected places. didn't they say the same of Jesus?....so the question is, who has the deficit?

    What makes a doctrine false?

    When you love you know. It is not a phenomena you need to prove with words while simultaneously it manifests in relating.

    Are only 144,000 saved? (Rev 14:1)

    What makes a doctrine false?

    semantics is the big hide behind while trumpeting for transparency!

    What makes a doctrine false?

    God's eyes and hears are always present. He sees and hears representations (points of view) of those claiming to be his followers for centuries. Those who speak well of God have in themselves the benefit (blessing)......a benefit which is not known (understood) by all others.

    What makes a doctrine false?

    'I am the way, the truth and the life'.....Jesus. Conclusion, without knowing Jesus, thrashing around in the untamed undergrowth of imagination is inevitable.

    Are only 144,000 saved? (Rev 14:1)

    Too many assumptions which I would call unsubstantiated. Assumptions which attempt to justify incorrect predetermined positions.

    Using Up The Universe

    well, I think hypocrisy uses us up. The Universe is a big place; I doubt whether hypocrisy uses it up. :)

    Are only 144,000 saved? (Rev 14:1)

    God's magnanimity is not to be under estimated. We need to step back and see humanity as represented both in Adam and in Jesus as presented in Romans 5:6-21. We are to use this understanding as our base for God's saving intentions and activity. Get too close to the trees without the perspective...
