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

    As I peruse through those texts you have quoted. I see no evidence that "the old testament law" died according to the first 4 verses above. It is me who died according to those verses, which then freed from the law which did not die. In the next 3 verses Paul speaks of ordinances which "were...

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

    So let me understand you correctly. Romans 7 as I showed previously, reveals 3 laws. The law of God which wars against the law of sin, and the law of the spirit of life which frees us from bondage to sin. It seems you are saying, and I am open to being corrected, that it is the law of God given...

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

    Preterist and dispensationalist miss the boat altogether. Both treat the last 2000 odd years of history as an inconsequential blip on the prophetic radar. As if God could only read the very immediate future and the very end. Everything in between was off no consequence, just a few million...

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

    People forget that prophecy is to be understood after the event.. Not before. "I have told you these things before, that when they come to pass you shall know that I am He".

    Cuddling Therapy

    Hey @Don Mills . Are there any trees around where you live? I haven't tried it myself, but I hear the trees are very much encouraged by a little cuddle from time to time. I don't know if it's mutual. I'm with @Hidden In Him on this one. I would be way too acutely aware of every single contact...

    The Mark of the Beast Has Arrived

    How about something in Latin, Hebrew and Greek?

    The Mark of the Beast Has Arrived

    I think you fellas need to consider the following. First, I suggest that the mark itself is a sign of voluntary allegiance to the beast. Thus if one receives it in his forehead, it is a conscientious decision and he has agreed with the beast as far as mindset, worldview, doctrine, etc is...

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

    I shall leave this for everyone for your consideration... 3 Spiritual laws that govern life. “For I delight in Law One: ……….The law of God. after the inward man”…..(Romans 7:22) Paul has nothing but love and respect for God’s law. He considers it ‘holy, just and good’. (Rom.7:12) It is Paul’s...

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

    But we know there's no contradiction and so the question remains.

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

    Please read again the following.... Please note. We have sin. Well before Sinai, as you say, Sodom, the flood, all testified of sin that was most definitely imputed against them, therefore there must have been a law and their transgressions defied that law. They were punished accordingly. But...

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

    Can anyone please explain the following... The apostle John tells us that sin is the transgression against the law. KJV 1 John 3:4 4 Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law. Then Paul tells us that the law was added because of...

    Who founded your church?

    So scenes such as the following are nothing to be concerned about... Just plain simple old... Idolatry.

    Where is hell? Where is heaven?

    How would a missionary explain from scripture why the massive tribes he is speaking to should cease from ancestor worship? How does he explain that who they are worshipping are not their ancestors, but demons, off that missionary firmly believes his own grandmother visits him from time to time...

    Where is hell? Where is heaven?

    The only alternative to life is death, and when death is destroyed in the fire what then? I know that's only metaphorical... But it is explained elsewhere... There shall be no more death. Can you explain existence without life that yet has awareness?

    Where is hell? Where is heaven?

    Having an inaccurate knowledge of the state of the dead can affect our salvation. KJV Isaiah 8:19-20 19 And when they shall say unto you, Seek unto them that have familiar spirits, and unto wizards that peep, and that mutter: should not a people seek unto their God? for the living to the dead...

    Where is hell? Where is heaven?

    Exactly. Can there be any life, in any of it's forms, if separated from He who gives and sustains it?

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

    Faith was and always will be the foundation of salvation. The first generation were kept out of Canaan not because they failed in the law, but because of unbelief. The principle of righteousness by faith exemplified by Abraham was lost by his descendants who mistakenly trusted in their law...

    Where is hell? Where is heaven?

    in as much as we are responsible for our own destiny, yes, in a sense it is self inflicted. That said however one would have to explain the conflicting statements that speak of the fire from heaven that destroys everyone outside the walls of the city. But I feel you. Unbelief basically is a...

    LENGTHY POSTS: I never read them, sorry

    You went from a discussion on long posts to farting because no-one wrote a long enough post to fully provide all the evidence and completely explain why long posts are sometimes essential in order not to be deceived into believing skunks fart.

    Where is hell? Where is heaven?

    What we are doing is revealing the numerous holes in the popular belief of eternal torment and the current obsession with the doctrine of hell despite being totally alien to the character of God and His word. Any honest and truth seeking Christian will recognize these holes through which I could...
