No...you have that backwards. Societies have always been warring and hurting each other, most of which is ungodly. In truth, society is simply harder and more hateful when it comes to the weightier things in life like life and death, which would include the scope of religion. But that puts the...

It is understandable for humans to think of human limitations and error when it comes to the written word...but that would mean you've missed the circumstances entirely. The word of God may appear to be words on paper, but it is not, it's spirit. The scriptures are a coded language, only...

Quotable report of personal lack of belief in what is written. Very telling.

"Bring me a sword."

I suppose this could be looked at both ways...and rightly so, Jesus is all things to both: the Beginning and the End, the First and the Last. "Bring me a sword." So a sword was brought before the king. And the king said, "Divide the living child in two, and give half to the one and half to the...

@Davy The problem with that is Jesus has already come for the house of Israel...and "It is finished." That is why He also said, "Behold, I come quickly", meaning "soon."

Exactly!

That raises a good point, and one of confusion: Indeed, this is the age of grace, and so it should be preached. But these times follow that former time when fire came down from heaven and many were saved (the house of Israel, who are the dead in Christ), but many also perished. Now then...

That would be a poor representation. He may have given us time...but it's not a gift, it's a revelation of what "is." He simply created a media in which to reveal all things. In other words, He reveals His reality to us what could be described as "in the twinkling of an eye", over millennia. But...

Ha, sorry, typo: given to fire.

In the eyes of God, the role of women as compared to men is a manifestation (a likeness) of men as compared to God. God has given men and women different roles. The relationship roles are an example of man being take out of God, just as the women was taken out of the man in the creation. These...

@VictoryinJesus Yes, the fire is now, the fire of judgment. The judgment went forth at the cross: to the house of Israel and all who looked forward to the day of the coming of the Lord; and to the gentiles who look back and believe. Thus, each is elect as chosen in Christ, by faith in Christ...

It is [only] the flesh that lives by time, not so the Spirit.

The only difficulty here is the timing. This is God's creation. Do pots elect themselves, do pancakes? Of course not! It is He who has elected all according to His will - He is the Potter! The timing then, is also relative to God, rather than to men. When Paul explained that we come "each in...

Noise in the world, aka, the big bang. 1 Thessalonians "A time, times, and half a time." How many times do I have to tell you?

You've missed the point. Jesus wasn't saying that to testify of Himself meant the opposite, as if He would not have been the Christ just for saying so...He was saying that if that was all He had, He would not be the One foretold. On the contrary, He in fact did testify of Himself. But it was...

I thought it was a sign from God to take a break ;)

It doesn't matter. Although many may like to think so, man is not in charge of what word goes out to the world, God is. Only God has providence over His word down through all generations. It shall not return void. It is not man's interpretation or translation that matters, it is God's...

No, my wife does. I started with the KJV, now have a NKJV.

Quoting God is not elevating self, but giving glory to God. Better get your story straight.
