    Is the Easter Bunny a fraud?

    Perhaps you have already heard me explain. Christ has overcome the world. The church fathers being faced with pagan traditions, took many of them over as captured ground, no longer pagan, but an opportunity to segway into the gospel...from death to life. Moreover, if you are going to condemn...

    Logical reason to believe in God

    Forums are a strange thing. It is obvious that you have the best of intentions in sharing those things of God that we can indeed love and live by...and for that reason, I have compassion toward you and your cause. Do not be discouraged by the challenges here. Most here also have good intentions...

    The many errors and contradictions found in Amillennialism.

    This is your first error. While I am not an Amillennialist, your definition of eternity is not biblical. The Bible defines time as being a part of creation, while the kingdom of God, which is eternal, is "without shadow of turning"--without time. As for the fruit every month...the nations are...

    How do we know we're ready for Jesus' coming?

    It is good that you have thought in terms of parables, for this too is a parable and a mystery. Just as marriage was from the beginning but the significance was not fully known until Jesus announced the wedding of the bridegroom, and Paul elaborated to say that the mystery was "as Christ is to...

    Zechariah 14 . . . Fulfilled? or Future?

    Marks and I were discussing and looking at the difference between what is physically made manifest of the things of prophecy, and their spiritual counterparts. In other words, just as Christ was crucified in His time but actually slain before the foundation of the world; and just as Paul knew...

    Zechariah 14 . . . Fulfilled? or Future?

    Ah, now I see the problem. Marks and I were discussing the three days Jesus spent in the heart of the earth...and you took off on one particular aspect of the day of the Lord, that I was not referring to. Not your fault, but it was out of context with our discussion. There are many things that...

    What is God's "Plan" For You?

    I believe the rules of the forum are not imposed to restrict the Truth. On the contrary, I should think they are there to protect those who speak it against attack. As for who it is that is pointing the finger...as I said, I don't need to warn you or disturb you in your doctrine. Thus, "I say...

    Zechariah 14 . . . Fulfilled? or Future?

    PS, This post was due to some misunderstanding, which I have since addressed in post 127, here: Zechariah 14 . . . Fulfilled? or Future? No...you just don't understand...and you "added" the above statement which is not biblical.

    Who is This?

    I said what is written.

    Zechariah 14 . . . Fulfilled? or Future?

    Christ is the End.

    What is God's "Plan" For You?

    No, none of what I have said is "what I believe." And why would you categorically not allow for the very means appointed to us for this time, which is that the Holy Spirit that other Helper should reveal the rest of what Christ had to say to His apostles that they could not bear, even if by...

    What is God's "Plan" For You?

    If a warning comes that includes pointing the finger at you because it is you who is speaking and you who is in danger...Why would you not want to hear the warning?

    What is God's "Plan" For You?

    There is only one reason to be fearful of such things. I suggest you--not entertain it, but face it.

    Who is This?

    For unto us a Child is born, Unto us a Son is given; And the government will be upon His shoulder. And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Isaiah 9:6 There shall come forth a Rod from the stem of Jesse, And a Branch shall grow out of...

    Y'all, I am going

    First things first--"the elementary principles of Christ", then "press on." This is what the church is instructed to do. Therefore, leaving the discussion of the elementary principles of Christ, let us go on to perfection, not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works and of...

    Who is This?

    Jesus is speaking to both houses: the house of Israel, and the other fold that He must also bring. Jesus is the first to be born of the Spirit of God, and the last to die of the flesh: the first of the living, and the last of the dead.

    Zechariah 14 . . . Fulfilled? or Future?

    Okay, but perhaps I need to remind you further: "That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit."...and that which Jesus came to do in the flesh, "It is finished." As for His three days in the heart of the earth, this is that day of the Lord, the day...

    Zechariah 14 . . . Fulfilled? or Future?

    Let's compare it. Describe what you see. But remember, "the former" (Zechariah 14:8) was flesh and blood. How will you compare it to the Spirit?

    Zechariah 14 . . . Fulfilled? or Future?

    This is that same prophecy: And they will fall by the edge of the sword, and be led away captive into all nations. And Jerusalem will be trampled by Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled. Luke 21:24 ...So then, do the times of the gentiles end without first beginning? But I...
