    No authority!

    Will your church stand by me and defend me before the judgement seat of Christ when I shoot someone because they believed a doctrine the church disagrees with and calls heresy?

    Who founded your church?

    @BreadOfLife So no, when I suggested those Christian churches your church persecuted because they disagreed with Rome, I want talking about Arius, Nestorius, or anytime else who were genuinely wrong. I'm talking about those your church persecuted for the simple reason they refused to submit to...

    Who founded your church?

    I'm not comfortable with any of the above, so long as you are speaking directly to those teachings, and not the evolved generalisations that are common with arianism and nestorianism. However, I will defend their rights to believe those things. I would not, as your church teaches and practices...

    So...feb, and still no sign of a major change

    I have quoted this again because I think it too important for you'll to just bypass and not consider. I believe the vast majority of Christians, due to having been deceived only very recently as in the last 200 years, have abandoned the only hermeneutic by which the Antichrist is accurately...

    Who founded your church?

    The easiest way to find out who founded your church is ask, who is my church like? The Jews, even the disciples, had a misconception of Who Jesus was. Their picture of Messiah was this all conquering hero Who they would help to slaughter the Romans. John and James's mother even approached Jesus...

    Who founded your church?

    You would wish it would disappear, but unfortunately for you, it didn't. It was alive and very very well, as I have testified and reminded you constantly over the years, but you being the stubborn bigoted anti-Protestant Catholic you are, you refuse to acknowledge it...even though your very own...

    A famine in the land for chocolate. A definite sign of the end.

    So...feb, and still no sign of a major change

    I'm only referencing this in relation to biblical prophecy. I don't see any inconsistency with Jonah prophesying to Nineveh and the result of the prophecy being uncertain to onlookers... Even to the king. However, I didn't make myself particularly clear that Jesus, in His showing his disciples...

    So what's so new about the new Covenant, and is it better, really?

    Of course. But willful ignorance isn't an excuse. The major component of that decision is to decide whose authority one is subjecting himself to. The word of God or the word of the church.

    So what's so new about the new Covenant, and is it better, really?

    Okay. This is where the real bottom line meaning of covenant comes into play. Relational integrity. If the Christian has an ongoing growing and fruitful relationship with Jesus, and he slips up in ignorance, or a one off demonstration of weakness, and turns to Jesus for forgiveness and the...

    So what's so new about the new Covenant, and is it better, really?

    I believe I covered that somewhat here. The problem I am having in this thread is trying to find some form of consensus concerning what laws are being referred to by Paul, how many are there, and what in actuality is a covenant? No-one is in agreement with anyone else on anything, which leads me...

    So what's so new about the new Covenant, and is it better, really?

    What you have illustrated is true of the laws pertaining to the sanctuary... But does not work when applied to the Ten Commandments. Transgressing the ten commandments is sin. Every time. All the time. And sin is transgression against those Commandments. It is also unbelief. It is also omission...

    So what's so new about the new Covenant, and is it better, really?

    Okay, that's clearer. We read in the NT that the law was never for a righteous man. It was for sinners. Thieves, murderers, adulterers, covetous, etc etc. Which is why Paul was so torn in Romans 7, recognizing the righteous demands of the law of God being holy and perfect, but also recognizing...

    So...feb, and still no sign of a major change

    For me there are two types of prophecy...conditional and apocalyptic. The conditional was that such as the prophets spoke to their kings, people, and nations regarding their need of repentance, and the inevitable results that would accrue if they refused. Two different outcomes were always on...

    So what's so new about the new Covenant, and is it better, really?

    A law died, but it couldn't have been the law concerning adultery because that law must also apply to the relationship with the new husband right?

    Cuddling Therapy

    As you may have been aware, we were in a total lockdown here in Victoria with a maximum travel limit of 5ks. And then only for very limited reasons, and a written permit from employers if your travel involved work outside that 5ks. My wife and I decided half way through that missing our...

    Cuddling Therapy

    I think we need to realize that none of this was David's idea. Those near and dear to him were seeking his welfare by finding a beautiful woman (out of respect for his position) who would genuinely cherish him and love him for who he was. Abishag was true to her calling at this time. It's...

    So...feb, and still no sign of a major change

    Yes, it was intended to be harsh. We are living on the cusp of eternity, and people are asleep, content in their own bubbles and only wanting to defend their current erroneous positions rather than seek truth and clearer understanding of prophetic realities. The last 2000 years, in which the...
