I never intimated that everything Christ said was a spiritual metaphor. But some things He taught definitely ARE given as a parable or symbolic metaphor. And the 'travail with child' idea is one of them. Not only did He give that, but so did Apostle Paul in 2 Cor.11 and 1 Thess.5. And it serves...

I never realized you were such an anti-nationalist. The only other thing one can be is an 'internationalist', which of course fits right in with prophecies about the final end time beast system of Revelation 13:1. There's nothing Biblically wrong with a citizen wanting to serve their country...

That event of Amos 9 has NOT happened yet today. One only need start reading there a little further up to realize it... Amos 9:11-14 11 In that day will I raise up the tabernacle of David that is fallen, and close up the breaches thereof; and I will raise up his ruins, and I will build it as...

One of the things the Christian Bible student should be warned about with attempts to apply theories of evolution to The Bible, is how evolution theory DEPENDS upon hundreds of thousands of years to try and substantiate the evolution of the races of man, and millions for evolution of species...

REPHAIM (ref'-a-im), (re-fa'-im) (repha'-im, from rapha', "a terrible one "hence "giant," in 1 Chron 20:4, yelidhe ha-rapha', "sons of the giant"; the King James Version, Rephaims): A race of aboriginal or early inhabitants East of the Jordan in Ashterothkarnaim (Gen 14:5) and in the valley of...

Only the children that claim The Promise through Abraham to Isaac to Jacob can rightly call themselves Israel. The nation state in the promise land today is actually a revival of the old kingdom of Judah, and its establishing was per God's prophecy in Jeremiah 24, which once again is, about...

The Babylon harlot of Rev.17 is A GREAT CITY per the last verse of that chapter. Rev 17:18 18 And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth. (KJV) It IS INDEED symbolic of the pagan idolatry pushed by Satan's servants throughout earth...

Concentrate just on the spiritual metaphor in Isaiah 54:1, and you'll quickly discover it cannot be applied in the flesh sense, but must be understood in the spiritual sense. OK, this is getting off the subject of the thread, but I'll comment. I've tried many ways to make this as short as...

I'm aware that many orthodox unbelieving Jews treat Melchizedek as a flesh king which Abraham met, and some of their brethren that do believe on Christ Jesus are influenced by them to think Hebrews 7 when speaking of Jesus being without mother or father is only an idea that Melchizedek's...

We're shown in God's Word that the Rephaims were the 'giants', so what do you think? If anything, based on what you said, that reveals the Chinese people's traits did not change... because of... isolation. That doesn't show evidence for evolution, but instead evidence for God's creation. Might...

Our Lord Jesus while carrying His cross to be crucified looked among the crowds that followed and saw women weeping for Him. He then repeated an Old Testament metaphor to them that directly relates to end time events. Luke 23:27-31 27 And there followed Him a great company of people, and of...

That's a myth, and a supposition from 'evolutionary' science, which I call pseudo-science. Skin color is not the only differing feature between races. Per Genesis, there is no trace of lineage from Noah's sons of the peoples called Kenites, Kadmonites, Perizzites, or Rephaim. The idea that...

If you're trying to say that testimony exists to suggest that Melchizedek was simply some flesh king of Abraham's day, then I would say that's a carnal doctrine of men, and such is impossible to relate to the Hebrews 7 Scripture about Melchizedek.

My previous statement is still just as valid, simply because God's Word doesn't really categorize the progression of His Plan of Salvation like Dispensationalism does. Apostle Paul used the idea of 'administration' of the one Gospel to different groups at different times, and he never preached a...

2 Samuel 18:24 was the OT reference to the roof top for the watchman idea. I missed the verse and put verse 12 instead.

Nowhere in Hebrews does it declare that our Lord Jesus was a work of creation, nor an angel. Heb 2:9 9 But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every man. (KJV)...

Brother, you simply don't know how wrong you are about that.

Darby's Dispensationalist ideas aren't that difficult to grasp in how he divided up God's Plan into specific periods based on the work of The Gospel from Abraham all the way down to Salvation going to the Gentiles. It's where he began to separate God's promises to Israel, and Israel from Christ...

Glad it's just 'your' opinion.

Every time The Holy Spirit gives us understanding in God's Word, it's an "eureka" moment. God is Who weaved all His Holy Writ together. Dispensationalism, which was a doctrine from 1830's Britain by John Darby, sought to create separations in God's Plan of Salvation like Aristotle categorizing...
