    Bible Study - 'The Second Coming of Christ'

    This is why it is good to feed of the flesh and drink the blood of Jesus, find reassurance that in our weaknesses he is still there to help us by his strength, and his grace is sufficient when a person fails. To me Jesus is life, and there is no other one like him, he lives in us by his spirit...

    Bible Study - 'The Second Coming of Christ'

    It’s for me to have to let go and forgive. To hold grudges is not good, there are some here who like to rail accusations or continue to pester and harass because they choose to do so. All I can do is let it go, you know I just have to let things go and forgive and move forward because if I...

    Bible Study - 'The Second Coming of Christ'

    You know what has helped me in my own personal life? I stopped watching the news and politics and stuff on the tv. Sometimes I’ll listen to the NPR station, however most of my life previously in seeking the things of this world has been cut off away from me. This has helped me get off even...

    Bible Study - 'The Second Coming of Christ'

    May God direct and guide. It’s fun to teach, and I don’t condemn others for doing so if they are wanting to do so. It’s up to individuals to study, it doesn’t mean when you do study for yourself and share not everyone is gonna jump on board and be okay with it. They will be resistant and they...

    Bible Study - 'The Second Coming of Christ'

    Hello Stunnedbygrace, That reminds me of the phrase - at hand, and also shortly. It is important to consider those words and their fair use of meaning, SBG. That would be understandable, having gone through all of Matthew 24, it is an interesting study for sure, Jesus gives a warning for...

    Bible Study - 'The Second Coming of Christ'

    Hello ScottA, Sure that is true, everyone believes and receives by their own measure, and one measure that one is given to be able to do freely, no matter at what age, is study the Bible. Though to far older in age might become more difficult, also our flesh hating reading the Bible is also a...

    Bible Study - 'The Second Coming of Christ'

    Continued from post #31 So as stated about Jesus coming back just as he had ascended, this is found in the very first chapter of Acts. Act 1:10 and as they were looking steadfastly to the sky in His going on, then, behold, two men stood by them in white clothing, Act 1:11 who also said...

    Bible Study - 'The Second Coming of Christ'

    Continued from post #26 There has been a lot to go through the Chapter of Matthew 24; which so much can be learned if one does a study verse by verse and check out other commentators because there are many more people that are far more smarter than me and have done their research and taken the...

    Bible Study - 'The Second Coming of Christ'

    It is so important for individuals to study. Is that what is really being done, or trying to just get a direct study going verse by verse to the best of my ability hopefully by the Holy Spirit to help people come to and understanding about something they totally may not even understand when...

    Bible Study - 'The Second Coming of Christ'

    Continued from post #23 The rest of what Jesus expresses through verses 48 - are talking about the evil servant - that starts to say in his heart, My lord delays to come - which was going to be in a generation of (40 years), and may begin to beat the fellow-servants, and to eat, and to drink...

    Bible Study - 'The Second Coming of Christ'

    Perhaps so. Just simply asking won't get you very far though, you have research and go through the scriptures and look and see and considering the surround historical context friend. It similar to those who believe Once saved, always saved. Imagine you are in a boat, and the boat is Jesus of...

    Scripture Study of The Immortal Soul (Spirit of Man/Woman)

    Ronald Burno, the Sun and moon were created on the fourth day. None of these things are a hill to die on, I will assure you. It would be stupid to argue these minor things... in my opinion. Everyone has their own subjective opinion about it, and I do not care. Doesn't effect salvation.
