What many don't realize is that the church of the very last days is the Laodicean. Quite sobering when we realise we are all members of it. For most of those members, Jesus is still on the outside crying out to come in. Sadly, His bride is reluctant to be clothed in that white raiment... His...

Many, if not most of the prophecies in Revelation deal with the history of nations and the church from the time it was written to today and beyond. All of history since the first century is included that pertains to God's people. That history is a lesson book for what is to take place tomorrow...

Contradicts this which is what my whole post was about. Each member of the family doing what they do best and what is best for the family. Making authority am arbitrary law regardless of context and skill sets is placing an unnecessary burden on families In the 19th and 20yh century (the days...

I guess Jesus was out of line here then seeing He was teaching from the OT... KJV Luke 24:25-27 25 Then he said unto them, O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken: 26 Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter into his glory? 27 And beginning...

The OT is abolished? So scriptures like ummm... Isaiah 8:20 are now irrelevant... Abolished? Is this talking about OT or NT? Or both?

That said, I do have some issues about fictionalizing the Godhead and reducing Him to a human construct.

Make all of them brown.

Submitting to your wife does not mean you are abdicating authority in spiritual matters in the home. And it is only in spiritual matters where the husband is to be the head. Take financial matters for example. Is an idiot of a husband who gambles and spends all the money on himself neglecting...

That price was paid for both men and women, therefore they are of equal value in the sight of God. The concept that women need to strive for "equality" is a sad state of affairs where the dictatorial mindset of men is a stark contradiction to the mind of Christ leading women to think subjugation...

I agree. Always have. In the OT Israel was called to live by faith... The just shall live by faith is an old testament requirement...I suppose though you think Jesus was a legalist for giving them commandments to obey.

That wasn't deep. I think G understood what you were saying, but just couldn't understand why and what it was you were trying to add to the conversation.

This topic is the most misunderstood in Christianity, and has led many into a lifestyle of disobedience to God Commandments. You appear (without any elaboration in your part) to also be confused regarding the "law". As you say, James and Paul appear to contradict each other on the matter of law...

Okay G. I haven't read through all 130+posts, but read enough I think to get the gist of what you are asking. Your hypothesis regarding Billy is interesting. How is he saved? Through coming to the knowledge of the gospel, which comes by revelation. And in normal circumstances God will use...

Without going into any thread dumping detail, I can think of one glaringly obvious example where the church refuses Christ's authority and usurps His authority in favor of itself. And yet... Such grace however does not mean He has abdicated that authority in favor of the church. Continuing...

I deliberately only quoted that verse because it has been ignored in several quotes of the passage you cited. Someone even asked for a verse to prove that husbands should submit to their wives. Seemed everyone has forgotten this.

Equal in what? Value? Points scored by end of life? MVP context? Quality? Effectiveness? Role playing? Strength? Attitude? Station? Class? I suggest that men and women are equal in value to God. They are not equal in value to one another. Their loss. Station, class, societal grades are all...

So you think, being a man, a woman has nothing she can teach you?

The value of anything is measured by that which you are willing to pay for it. God paid a ransom for our lives. The price of our redemption was the life of His Son.

Jesus quantified the value of humans. By dying for us He valued us as equal to Himself. Both men and women... Equal value.

seems contagious. So only many, but not all, were made sinners through Adam?
