    Flee from what?

    One of the ideas the mystical initiate fraternities teach is that there is no such entity as the devil or Satan, nor a place called hell. They use that very line of reasoning, claiming belief that the devil is real and that hell is real is based on primitive superstition, ignorance, and...

    There Are No Church Ages

    Two Churches out the seven Christ had no rebuke for, and those two Churches represent His servants that are not deceived, because they keep His Word, and thus know how to recognize His enemies. Because Rev.11 reveals only two candlesticks associated with God's two witnesses, reveals the other...

    Flee from what?

    The devil, Satan, is a real entity per God's Word. He is a heavenly 'cherub' per Ezekiel 28. Per Job 1 & 2, Satan appeared before God's Throne in Heaven. Satan tempted Christ Jesus in the wilderness for 40 days and nights per The Gospel. In Isaiah 14 is given a metaphor about his captivity...

    The unfaithful servant

    The Matthew 22 parable about the one without a wedding garment was really about the Pharisees, like an attempt to sneak into the wedding with strange apparel. Zeph 1:7-10 7 Hold thy peace at the presence of the Lord GOD: for the day of the LORD is at hand: for the LORD hath prepared a...

    The Promises to Israel

    I keep having to bring up the Ephesians 2 Scripture where Apostle Paul well explained this, by his use of the expression "commonwealth of Israel". God's promises first went to a chosen seed, and the remnant of that seed found grace through Christ Jesus, and the promises remained with them as...

    Possible new ministry idea.

    Invite them to your Church. If you have Bible study with friends, invite them. Before one can believe, one must first hear.

    Works based salvation

    Salvation is by Faith, but it will always include works as a by-product like Gypsy said, to show that it is real Faith. We cannot change this point, because this is why Christ gave the parable of the talents, which is about putting to work what Christ has given us. In the case with the servant...

    Benny Hinn vs. Joel Osteen

    I don't listen to either one of them, so I couldn't fairly comment. When Christ's Apostles saw another casting out devils in His Name, Christ's Apostles asked our Lord if He wanted them to go stop that one, since he was not one of them. Christ said no, for he that is not against us is for us...

    How close is the Seven Year Tribulation?

    That's just it, you are not heeding the witness of Apostle John either about a singular Antichrist, because he specifically mentioned TWO clauses in the verse, and only ONE of them is about the "many antichrists" idea you keep trying to use to replace his mentions of a singular antichrist. I Jn...

    Can sacred soil be given to atheists .

    You've obviously got a lot of Bible study to do... God's final promise concerning Jerusalem... Ezek 16:60-63 60 Nevertheless I will remember My covenant with thee in the days of thy youth, and I will establish unto thee an everlasting covenant. 61 Then thou shalt remember thy ways, and be...

    There Are No Church Ages

    But the concept of 'ages' is what men's doctrines TRY to apply to those seven Messages Christ gave to the seven Churches in Asia Minor. The word 'ages' is NOT written anywhere in those seven Messages. Men's false doctrine of treating those seven as 'church ages' gets totally away from Christ's...

    "by their fruit"

    We're actually supposed to help each other against sin, for those in Christ's Church, but not with ridicule; but not being afraid to point out sin either. If a brother or sister loves The Lord, they will be willing to listen to Christian rebuke from other brethren, just as a family member...

    Benny Hinn vs. Joel Osteen

    I understand your point FHI, but I think you've missed a lot about that Esau and Jacob comparison. God had already told Rebekah before she gave birth there were "two manner of people" in her womb, and that the elder (Esau) would serve the younger (Jacob). In Malachi 1 God said He hated Esau...

    The Hebrew Spartans

    Didn't realize their removal started as early as 1629 in England. I agree, the Apocrypha is not canonical. But I do regard some of the points of history in them. I see some of them as possibly Gnostic in origin. So I wouldn't advise their reading to a new babe in Christ Jesus, but only for...

    Intro to The Revelation

    I don't see the rest of Rev.1, so I feel led to provide it here. Rev 1:9-20 9 I John, who also am your brother, and companion in tribulation, and in the kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ, was in the isle that is called Patmos, for the word of God, and for the testimony of Jesus Christ...

    Interlinear and strongs coded bibles

    Old Testament Hebrew manuscript study is still going to be wanting with just an Interlinear too, because they don't include the Massorah notes. The KJV study Bible the Christian scholar E.W. Bullinger put together called The Companion Bible does have many of those Massorah notes from the...

    Who were the sons of God mentioned in Genesis 6?

    If you're going to quote what others wrote, you should give them the credit and document it. That looks some one giant cut and paste from somewhere.

    Humpty Dumpty Christianity: GEOgram September 30, 2011

    Everything is right on schedule per God's Word. Even as Apostle Paul commended those at Berea which verified for themselves in Scripture as to what Paul was preaching, we have since long ago been given that example. Those who stay in God's Word as written, getting the whole Loaf into the mind...

    Can sacred soil be given to atheists .

    Well, it's pretty obvious not many here have ever read Ezekiel 16 of how our Heavenly Father feels about Jerusalem on earth, and what He said about it in the Psalms. Such Biblical ignorance here, and pushing of men's agenda's instead, that this forum is starting to no longer serve as a real...

    Communist-Socialism A Western Invention

    But that changes under Communist-Socialism, because no one becomes able... to own their own home under welfare statism, which is what Socialism is all about. People might as well act like animals under that system, because that's how they're treated, like animals in cages. This is why Communist...
