    When is 'Speaking in Tongues', true versus false.

    The message of the gospel is for men. It is spoken in mans language to man. In the case in point, the disciples where given the ability to speak in the language of other than their native tongue. The various visitors from different parts of the world heard them speaking the good news in their...

    When is 'Speaking in Tongues', true versus false.

    I think you have missed the point my dear. Your statement was that the miracle was in the hearing. If the mockers received the miracle of hearing it would not have been gibberish and conversely, if they didn't receive the miracle of hearing they would have understood what was being said and...

    When is 'Speaking in Tongues', true versus false.

    With respect 1stCL, if the miracle was in the hearing how could it be that the mockers thought it was gibberish?

    We really CAN'T answer some of these

    Why is it that the foolish virgins didn't know that the wise virgins couldn't give them any oil. I think it was because the page they were on didn't allow it. Error cherished has a way of cancelling eye sight and hearing.

    The Unclothed State (2 Cor. 5:4)

    The Unclothed State Last time i checked it was when the bikini wasn't worn. So many words for the obvious!

    Upping the ante

    My understanding is this:....My natural inclinations break God's Law (decalogue) thoughtlessly and as naturally as water off a ducks back. Lying and stealing, unfaithfulness and idolatry etc etc are the natural outworking of pleasing self. I live in opposition to his Law whether or not I'm aware...

    Seventh day Adventism

    I find it remarkable CI, that when you are asked a question to elaborate on your statements you bow out and put blame on the questioner as if the question is out of order.

    Do Acts of Righteousness Make One Righteous?

    It appears you are trying to negate the need for being righteous mark. When the scripture exhorts us to put away sin it is saying, be righteous. It does not tell us to resist the devil and from the other side of its mouth say, ha ha, all your efforts are worthless. Your opposition to having...

    Righteous is as righteous does.

    Here we go!... without reading/hearing/comprehension skills misinterpretation is sure to follow.....furthermore, unjustified accusations are the natural extension of those that feel threatened.

    Righteous is as righteous does.

    Good question. I think some of us crayons have lack lustre as a result of either all or some of those things. One thing is clear, those that have a heart for righteousness will behave righteously whether their pencils are sharp by human standards or no. I know for myself that I desire a better...

    Signs of the Last Days=3rd. Temple Feaver Officially Hit Israel!!

    You have not answered, rather, you have been evasive. Your ignorance on the subject gets you to resort to what you have heard others say. You accuse Scott of not doing research yet your own is lacking dismally. In the light of this, is their any reason you should be taken seriously?

    Signs of the Last Days=3rd. Temple Feaver Officially Hit Israel!!

    Yes, I have asked you that question before and as now you have not answered it. It says quiet clearly you are prepared to make judgements on material that you are ignorant about. We will let the readers decide where that leaves you!

    Signs of the Last Days=3rd. Temple Feaver Officially Hit Israel!!

    CoreIssue, let me ask you this....is truth or lies determined by those who speak them? And besides, did you actually read it?

    Was the mosque shooter in New Zealand a False Flag?

    Humility has ever been a challenge for those who are right!

    Signs of the Last Days=3rd. Temple Feaver Officially Hit Israel!!

    Paul is referring to the Israel of God, not the nation of Israel...his people, whether they are nationally Hebrews (jews) or Gentiles. Look closely at it. This comes out in verse 32. Mercy given to all...both Jews and Gentiles. All are of the seed of Adam. Jesus is the second Adam. Consider the...

    Signs of the Last Days=3rd. Temple Feaver Officially Hit Israel!!

    The tree Israel is barking up is the product of a deception. Do you recall the words of Jesus? 'Your house is left unto you desolate!' Consider what he meant. The enthusiastic continuation of the sacrifices including all the associated religious ceremonies after Jesus's death and resurrection...

    What did Christ say about the law?

    The love of righteousness with its beauty cherished will put sin in its true light, that it is the destroyer of every good thing. It will cry out as David did in the Psalms putting God's Law as the most desirable way of seeing and behaving. Doing it rather than talking about it starts with the...
