    The Seven Churches

    Not throwing stones, but all that cannot be so intricately assigned to specific denominations like you've tried to do. The real end time pattern application of Christ's seven Messages involves those things He told them to repent of that can happen within ANY... of today's denominations...

    Assurance of salvation

    The idea of an assurance of our Salvation is taught in the Scriptures, but not in the sense that one can never fall away IF... they so choose. That's the difference. God's Promise of Salvation through His Son Jesus Christ is for those who CONTINUE in The Faith, and Paul taught for those to see...

    1948 Or 1967

    Anyone that has bothered to read and study all of God's Word well knows no one is given to know the specific day or hour of Christ's second coming. Belief otherwise is to wrongly assume they know when Christ Jesus said no man, not even the angels of Heaven, would know when that specific day is...

    The 7th and 8th King

    I interpret the 8 kings prophecy of Rev.17 the same as Steve, except... a difference with the 7th and 8th. Up to the 7th king is directly related to what Christ revealed in Rev.13:2 from Daniel 7 about the idea of previous beast kingdoms and beast king rulers over them, with ancient Rome being...

    The Seven Churches

    But in reality, it was not. The British Church was established in western Europe first, and has continued to today. Can't change that with any simple 'institutional sect' type of categorization. That statement reveals you are trying to prove the ascendancy of the Roman Church over the British...

    1948 Or 1967

    Nope. There are none that allow one to set a specific day or year for Christ's second coming, including both the OT and NT Scriptures. But there are those who think to play around with numerology and gematria using God's Word who wrongly think they can determine that. We can only know by the...

    1948 Or 1967

    The precision only comes by staying on watch for the signs He gave coming to pass, not with trying to set a certain day or year. Those signs, like the Seals of Rev.6, lead all the way up to His day of return. And there are many, many last day prophecies given in both the Old and New Testament...

    The Seven Churches

    Time to get ot the bottom of it. Rev 2:8-11 8 And unto the angel of the church in Smyrna write; These things saith the first and the last, Which was dead, and is alive; 9 I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and I know the blasphemy of them which say they...

    Who taught you about God? Who is your God?

    One of the biggest indicators for me that I didn't know The Father and His Son in my early years was, that everytime I opened up His Word to try and understand, all it did was confuse me.

    1948 Or 1967

    Jesus revealed with the parable of the fig tree that His return would occur prior to the last generation ending. He didn't say specifically it would be at a certain year when the last generation is to kick the bucket per the end of a given life-span of time.

    The Seven Churches

    The "institutional" aspect you speak of involved bishops, and then a pope. I don't see that as proof for the establising of the Roman Church over all other Churches, especially the Church in Britain, since the Roman Church admitted the antiquity of the 1st century British Church in their...

    Your Opinion On Atheists

    Atheism is simply a self-centered position. That's what makes it attractive to some. It's a position for those who think to be whatever they want to be, and whoever they want to be (according to this world), and not have to worry about suffering any consequences for it, and especially not after...

    Satan

    Satan is a real... entity. He appeared before God's Throne in Heaven per Job 1 & 2. Warning: it's the occult secret societies that often push the idea that Satan is not a real entity. Instead, they treat Satan as the concept of an evil principle dealing with opposites, like negative vs...

    Is Jesus God?

    Jesus Christ is the "express image" of The Father... Heb 1:1-3 1 God, Who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, 2 Hath in these last days spoken unto us by His Son, Whom He hath appointed heir of all things, by Whom also He made the...

    The Seven Churches

    Yes. But that's still not quite reaching the point of why Christ had no rebuke for the two Churches of Smyrna and Philadelphia. We cannot arbitrarily assign Christ's rebuke for the other five to those two.

    The Seven Churches

    The real facts of Christ's Church as early developing institutions was not with the Catholic system, but with the Church at Jerusalem and the Churches in Asia Minor. Antioch is where believers on Christ Jesus first began to call themselves Christian, not Rome. Even the Culdee Church in ancient...

    6 Days Of 15 Billion Years?

    John 16:13-14 13 Howbeit when He, the Spirit of truth, is come, He will guide you into all truth: for He shall not speak of Himself; but whatsoever He shall hear, that shall He speak: and He will shew you things to come. 14 He shall glorify Me: for He shall receive of Mine, and shall shew it...

    Dreams of the futures.

    Yep, dreams are most often personal. And they don't always come from God, and can be a result of inner emotional battles we're having with things in our lives.

    The Seven Churches

    So what about our Lord's Messages to the other Churches other than Laodicea? What about the end time markers He put in them? The Church Ages theory can be dangerous, simply because it suggests concentrating specifically on our Lord's Message to the Church at Laodicea, and disregard His Messages...

    SAVED ONCE: IT’S SAVED OR WASN’T SAVED! –Netchaplain

    You'll find many Scripture warnings about us staying in the race, overcoming through Christ Jesus, and those are not specific to the ones declared that were once in the Faith that then fell away like the above post examples. The strong meaning of Heb.6 & 10 that I posted is about accountability...
