Exactly, and that's my point. "In many instances ...", but perhaps not in ALL instances. Bobby Jo

The Jews had a practice where anyone could walk through a field and pick kernels of grain and eat them, exactly as Jesus and his disciples were accused of doing ON THE SABBATH. Additionally, as given in Ruth's account, she could harvest the "second gleaning". Did you think that "thieves" ONLY...

Nice preaching, but poor Scripture! Bobby Jo

It's called for and certainly an acknowledgement of salvation, and I'll risk being in the minority -- because I don't believe it's ESSENTIAL. It's simply a tangible display of a new SPIRITUAL life. For example, which Scripture availability was limited and various Books were pieced out, if one...

Ummmmmmm, some test units are apparently available in limited quantities from some approved manufacturers, and new manufacturers are still developing, testing, and obtaining approval. And the FDA is expediting those approvals as we speak. I guess for some the glass is perpetually half empty...

. It might help make that determination, if we knew if we were in the Tribulation or not. -- So your perspective is CORRECT for YOU, but isn't an open question for others. Bobby Jo

Luke 23:41 And we indeed justly; for we are receiving the due reward of our deeds; but this man has done nothing wrong.” ?Because the thief said so? :) Bobby Jo

Many "professing christians" can only handle milk, -- and even then with difficulty. Bobby Jo

Don't ja just LOVE people who make up excuses out of their own imagination for circumstances which contradict their "theology"? THE THIEF WAS NEVER BAPTIZED. But if he had been "baptized" he obviously wouldn't have been hanging on a cross next to Jesus, because OBVIOUSLY baptism prevents us...

Sin is sin, regardless of "baptism". It seems the greater WEIGHT is whether we have a sufficient grasp of Scripture so that we may not sin. But if we need to "justify" our faith, we can always say: WE WERE BAPTIZED! It's certainly easier than OBEDIENCE. Bobby Jo

Regarding this Topic, -- it would seem to propose that "water baptism" makes a person "spiritual". And I don't discount that prospect, and even Paul said that -- presumably AFTER water baptism --, the good which he would he does not, but that which he wouldn't he does. And my point is, water...

I would observe that there are POLITICAL aspects (i.e., "Trump-Virus"); MEDICAL aspects (per the video); and SCRIPTURAL aspects. And it seems to me that WE are the only ones who should perceive the Scriptural aspect, -- a Plague. And if this is the case, we should anticipate more complications...

There are WORSE things that death, being blinded, having an arm cut off, or some other significant body injury. Scripture says it's better to have a mill stone around your neck and thrown into a river than to harm a child; and better to cut off what causes you to sin than to be thrown into...

And sometimes, we actually find a person who is HONORABLE and GOOD. Now they may have had to ARRIVE to that circumstance, but there ARE people who aspire to do the RIGHT THING, and we SHOULD acknowledge them for their RIGHTEOUSNESS. Bobby Jo

Interestingly, TODAY we have a news report from New York City where 20 teen age boys brutally assaulted a 15 year old girl, stealing her cell phone, debit card, and Air Jordan shoes, -- leaving her unconscious on the ground with bruising and head trauma. ... and some insist there's no need to...

Apparently Hillary says she's The Most Investigated Innocent Person In America, which is a TOTAL PREVARICATION. That title goes to Trump. And Biden is the Least Investigated Guilty Person In America, (only second to Hillary), but I expect that to change: Numbers 32:23 ... be sure your sin...

To All, And once again, maybe we can return to our regularly scheduled programming. Bobby Jo

What a coincidence that the JW's are the only proponents I'm aware of where there's a FIFTH empire consisting of a "Coalition Of The Willing", -- exactly as you purport, using the exact wording. You are CORRECT. -- You apparently assert that the Dan. 2 FIVE = the Dan. 7 FOUR. And I'm not...

To All, I believe this Topic was diverted due to unfounded accusations of incompetence by President Trump, even though he incurred accusations of xenophobia when he quickly reacted to close our airport flights from China. Of course for some, there's always FAULT to be found with others, but...

To All, It should be noted that the Jehovah's Witnesses have such distortions of Scripture that some call them a "cult". And where I prefer not to delve into that accusation, I will assert that they are NOT a reliable source of Scripture, of the Interpretation of Scripture, or even the simple...
