    Have you ever............

    'but' can mean an alternative way of seeing however, the context defines whether that is the case or if it is used to appear a certain way when the reality is different.

    Have you ever............

    LAMB...did you know that the word 'but' inserted after making a statement nullify's what was stated?

    Here is why, as an Adventist, I believe America is in Trouble.

    Not to argue with you ewq1938 but to offer something to consider; the Jews who had Jesus lined up for murder quoted the 'bible' plentifully. As you no doubt know, Jesus said of them 'you search the scriptures thinking that in them you have eternal life but they are they which testify of me, yet...

    Yes, yes, we all believe in Jesus; now let's get onto the important stuff!

    Interesting Karl ...I've got to know a lot about you....and a lot of advice. The question is, what have I learned about Jesus which would draw me to him?

    Here is why, as an Adventist, I believe America is in Trouble.

    It's near impossible to reveal something unfamiliar to somebody who has already made up their mind.

    When will God gather Israel?

    Israel, dad, are those who overcome, just like Jacob did. He overcame is doubt and unbelief.......and they will be gathered, every single one that qualifies as Israel, at Jesus return in the clouds. The dead will be raised and the living translated......this mortal shall put on immortality and...

    Athens or Jerusalem or Neither?

    Jesus did not regularly say, 'if you have ears to hear then hear,' for no reason. The tendency to shoot ones mouth off as if one is an authority is every fools game.....and for those who see/hear, it is obvious. Two ears and one mouth ought to tell us much......but who can hear it?

    when we are going home to heaven will you meet me there?

    and J.A.T. Robinson is an authority on which euphemisms apply and which don't? Would it be considered that the destination of those who die is the grave? We need to be mindful of where to major and where to minor and who (the situation) we are dealing with.......and that being pedantic is...

    Being WRONG was Foretold...and what to do about it.

    How is it that advice is dished out as if the advisor knows. All sorts of logic is employed as if by logic one can arrive at truth......and how is it that the advisor hasn't factored in that the very process he/she uses could actually dupe themselves?

    You've saved all these? why have you bothered? Humans it seems do not/can not resist self glorification; it matters not what form it is packaged in. It can be in an overt style like in a fashion parade or it can be in the style of self depreciation.......either way, self becomes the...

    An idea for your consideration.

    The long and the short of it is, the nations are stressed....for whatever reason real or fabricated......and I think it'll continue to ratchet up until a so called solution is somehow agreed on.......even a 'solution' which will incriminate God's people .....and down the track, even call for...

    The Divine Plan of the Ages by Charles T Russell - Jehovah's Witnesses

    hmmmm, shaking off the dust hey?.... Is that like you did to me when I put you the spot? Never mind, you're loved nevertheless......even when you make it difficult! :)

    Observing The Old Testament Sabbath ???

    The expression 'Old Testament Sabbath' is an overlay. The scripture speaks of the Sabbath given to Man (humanity). It is no more old testament than is don't kill, don't steal or don't commit adultery. We are to remember the Sabbath....ie, not forget it or change it or give it some other spin...

    The Sin Nature

    We have a 'virus'.....it kills us. Sin is its go to......and even if we never sinned, we would still die just as babies die and animals die and plants die. I guess one could call that being a slave. Self has the ascendency.....and for those who have been given a vision of selflessness, they...

    Why reject Jesus Christ?

    Why reject Jesus Christ? You ask the question while favouring Mary. Speaking out of both sides of your mouth is a good reason for alarm bells!

    Walking after the Spirit….

    ...in addition to post #4.....the seduction accompanying the the plentiful talk of 'the spirit, the spirit' is a conclusive indication we are nearing the finality of all things. The last great and most powerful deception is accompanied by this focus.....where people of all hues will be hard...

    Walking after the Spirit….

    The Holy Spirit never focuses on itself.....neither do those who have it. The plentiful yada yada of 'the spirit, the spirit' seen in many circles is a sure indication it is not of the Hoy Spirit.

    What does Scripture say about the King James Bible?

    To keep it in context Konstantin, Jesus was speaking of his own reality, not that of the KJV. Being mindful of context keeps many pitfalls at distance. Without that consideration, one can make anything say anything.
