    Nightmare scenario

    As you rightly say Keraz, they are your writings ie, not the writings of scripture. For example, here you say God is responsible for blinding peoples eyes when the testimony of scripture is:- 2 Corinthians 4:4 'whose minds the god of this age has blinded, who do not believe, lest the light of...

    What Are we Getting Saved From?

    God is saying to Adam, 'talk to me' don't out me. God has always wanted to talk to us yet we (people, humanity) insist that God only wants to talk to us if we jump through certain hoops, if we measure up, if we are good enough....whatever that means......and so we out God by our own perceptions...

    What Are we Getting Saved From?

    Yes, our iniquities have separated us. It does not say God was separated from us. For goodness sakes, he came and identified with us in Jesus so that we could see his affection toward us When Adam blew it in the garden, he was the one who went into hiding, not God. God went looking for him...

    What Are we Getting Saved From?

    This text is right. Can you imagine that God does not require blood? ....and sacrifice? how are we to understand that? How have we traditionally seen this? or, how else could it be seen which is consistent with God's character? When you work like blazers to put your kid through college, is not...

    What Are we Getting Saved From?

    you are right, he doesn't play games....and this is not a game.....it's good news.....news better than we can imagine......and surprisingly, it doesn't conflict with scripture but it does conflict with what men expect from God.

    Why does darkness not comprehend the light?

    Why does darkness not comprehend the light? Because it's in denial......and feels threatened.

    What Are we Getting Saved From?

    No? c'mon, I'm not asking you to give me your PIN number, I'm just asking you to consider what I've put out......and may I ask, why the resistance?

    Nightmare scenario

    Yes, we should know about it. The issue is how one sees/hears not just what one sees......in order to gain understanding At Jesus crucifixion what do you think the soldiers saw? and the religious tight shorts?......What do you think the disciples saw? and Jesus' mother? All were looking at...

    What Are we Getting Saved From?

    consider this DJT....our sins are forgiven ie, not held against us even before we were born as love hold no record of wrongs. 1 Corinthians 13:5 I understand this throws a spanner into the standard interpretation. Could it be that's what Jesus came to do?....to reveal the love of the Father in...

    I love you sbg! :)

    Nightmare scenario

    you know Keraz, occasionally I quote scripture but even when I don't, how does that make me wrong? You don't make any enquiry as to why I believe what I believe and label what I say 'wild assertions' so why would posting scripture make a difference?.....and even if I did, would you bother...

    Do you think only people aged 25 should be allowed to use and own guns?

    it's not the age or the guns, it's the culture......maturing... you can expect more!

    This Makes More Sense To Me Now

    The detail highlights God's people being from 'everywhere', the twelve x twelve factor indicating completeness. This deduction I've determined from the awareness that God's people are from every nation, tribe and people. There are not two groups ie, Jews and Gentiles. There is only one...

    This Makes More Sense To Me Now

    consider this sbg, 144000 = 12000x120000...ie, all Israel ...a metaphor for God's people. It's the same crowd that are standing on the sea of glass. Rev. 15:2 – “I also saw something like a sea of glass mixed with fire, and those who had won the victory over the beast, his image, and the...

    Is the holy spirit a living being Equal to God?

    Is the holy spirit a living being Equal to God? God is Spirit so how can he not be?

    What does Colossians 1:16 mean when it says "For by him were all things created..."

    Interesting selection of words Paul uses, ie 'in him, by him, through him'..... it tells a story.....can we hear it?

    Nightmare scenario

    Do you really think that quoting a volume of scripture makes the matter right Keraz? There are plenty here who quote scripture by the bucket load and yet are 'off with the fairies' so to speak. What's more, you know that! Why would you even employ that tactic as if it carries indisputable...

    Nightmare scenario

    I wonder about those folk who show up at a certain time and say 'Lord lord, we did all these wonderful works in your name' and Jesus tells them he never knew them. How does that work? ....they did wonderful works in his name; they must have believed in him according to your rationale. No doubt...
