Except that His words...are spirit. It's a thought provoking title on purpose. Don't get your feathers all up in a bunch.

The sad and crazy reality of Christian history, is that we went from being told "today", "this generation", "I am with you always", "God pouring out His spirit upon all flesh" beginning at the day of Pentecost as foretold by Joel the prophet and confirmed by Peter, "the Spirit of truth guiding...

No, no, no... Matthew 25:31-34 “When the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the holy angels with Him, then He will sit on the throne of His glory. All the nations will be gathered before Him, and He will separate them one from another, as a shepherd divides his sheep from the goats. And He...

No where, only go, there is. :)

Me to God: "When I called out to you, you answered, and guided me to your word, and I have believed all that is written, that you sent your Son to save and to bring eternal life to all who receive Him. Thank you forever!"

First, wording things a little wrongly, is quite alright. But it is important to recognize that these are not the times of Israel, but the times of the gentiles. If we are to show honor to God, it is not good to do their work when we have our own. Which is to say, their work, "It is...

Yes, the scriptures are our God given foundation, and we do not discard them, but press on to perfection. The word of God is under His providence alone, and not that of men.

Apparently you are indeed under the wrong impression. We do not give up our foundation to build the rest of the house. That is not what I said. But rather, as Paul said, we leave the elementary principles as elementary and press on. Which does not contradict what he said about the Bereans. By...

Wow - I got it - and so it is written!

Oh, yes, absolutely, I confirm with the scriptures. This is how it was for me from the very start with my own road to Damascus type experience. In fact that is what I have done here with this thread, even considering the scriptures the precedent for things to come. For, more importantly, the...

Indeed, not "dimly" but clearly and fully, things that were eluded to but "restrained" until the appointed time: 2 Thessalonians 2:7 "For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only He who now restrains will do so until He is taken out of the way."

We often hear that the test of any comment or doctrine is scripture, and certainly it is a good test. It's just not the last word, nor is it the best test. Nor should it be considered our last line of defense. To do so, is to admit that we do not understand where we are in God's master plan of...

We do, and do so always, except when the way of Mary is the better choice than the way of Martha. Which in the case of some, is always, and not to be criticized, for these are at His feet and not the table. Likewise the same is true of the Sabbath, just as Jesus said, “The Sabbath was made for...

I quoted Christ, then proclaimed the same thing to you as the exercise of my God given gift, but you do not receive either. So, yes, it is worse than it was.

The coming of the Lord is not evil, nor is He. But He comes eastward of Eden to save and does so from east to west. Jesus has come into our world of darkness, and it is Him taking us out of darkness that is as the scripture reads, "east to west." When we enter into the rest of God...it is...

That's enough, to show you wrong. To answer your question - Yes, that is exactly what we should understand. Israel was a light unto the gentiles, which indeed established a moral ethic throughout the world based in their law. But it was their law, given only to them by God, and by covenant...

East[ward] is synonymous with evil. The garden, and Eden (meaning "Pleasure or pleasant"), was aside from God: Pleasure aside from God. The seventh day (being God's rest), does not end, but is forever.

Thank you for your civil response. By this I know that you have the love of God in you. Nonetheless, you have indeed given me much to correct. Beginning with the law (which includes the Sabbath keeping commandment): Just as it is referred to now in the same way even in secular circles, the law...

Yes, "the quick and the dead", but no, not the OT saints as opposed to "we who are alive and remain". That would be two different topics. As pertains to these times, that being "the times of the gentiles", the times of the "other fold" that Christ "must bring." This fold begins as all mankind...

I quoted the whole claim from Christ: "I am the Beginning and the End." But regardless of whether or not you know the verse or passage or fully read what I posted, I did not say "the law", but rather "the Old Covenant." It is the Old Covenant which contains the law and commandments which...
