    A Study/focus on Acts 21:20-21:

    Actually, Paul did not forsake what Moses taught... Acts 24:13-15 13 Neither can they prove the things whereof they now accuse me. 14 But this I confess unto thee, that after the way which they call heresy, so worship I the God of my fathers, believing all things which are written in the law...

    Can you tell the difference

    There's a whole lot more Bible left to quote than just those two verses. Pulling a couple of verses out of The Bible is something that men's doctrines do all the time. Everybody has seen that done today. Luke 17:3-4 3 Take heed to yourselves: If thy brother trespass against thee, rebuke him...

    19th Century Dispensationalism and Double Gospels

    I actually have not been discussing the idea of dispensatiional periods in God's Plan that much. That much of the doctrine I agree with. I'm aware there are various forms of Dispensationalism. One could... even categorize me (if they wanted), as a Progressive Dispensationalist (God's Plan of...

    The book of James

    There's that false play of modern Dispensationalism again, the willful removing of whole sections of The Bible in order to maintain a silly doctrine of men. Gen 3:15 15 And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her Seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt...

    19th Century Dispensationalism and Double Gospels

    I also would like to admonish my Gentile Christian brethren to study all of God's Word as a whole, and not just take out Scriptures which Dispensationalists try to say is not meant for Gentiles. To study all of God's Word is not going back into bondage to the Old Covenant law like many...

    Homeland Security Study / Mosques

    Just what were Christians doing 500 years ago? We'd like to know, since this is a Christian Forum.

    19th Century Dispensationalism and Double Gospels

    In the 1800's, a doctrine associated with the 'mystery' that Paul taught that Salvation would go to the Gentiles also began to be preached along with the Pre-trib secret rapture theory. It is called Dispensationalism. John Nelson Darby in 1800's Britain was one of the main developers of that...

    Whirlwinds of the South

    Our Lord Jesus was in His Resurrected Body when He ascended to Heaven from the Mount of Olives per Acts 1. That's the kind of body He will return with also. It's simple. You're right, the Revelation Babylon is not Rome, nor New York, nor any city in Europe. It is pointing to Jerusalem in a...

    Scriptural proof that Jesus was NOT "fully God"

    The name Israel has always been about God's Promised Salvation first given through Abraham (Galatians 3; Romans 4 & 9). God gave Jacob that new name of Israel to represent the Promise by Faith. God's promises to Israel go along with that main Promise by Faith, which is what Apostle Paul was...

    Genesis Time Gap

    Hello conqueror, If you'll also notice in Rev.12:3-4, another pattern is given along with that time when Satan as that red dragon drew a third of the stars (angels) in rebellion with him. The pattern of a beast kingdom system of ten horns, seven heads, and seven crowns is given along with that...

    New Views on the Rapture

    You may believe some of those things as you wish, but quite a bit of what you say there just isn't Biblical. There's plenty of Scripture evidence for how believers have had to suffer persecution, especially with the OT prophets and in Paul's case... Heb 11:36-38 36 And others had trial of...

    The Day, The Month, the Hour and the year

    I did not mean to infer a literal 1260 days after that "midweek" you speak of. I mentioned the 1260 days, or 42 months, because that's the Scripture reference. I believe it very possible that 1260 days past the midweek could be shortened per what our Lord Jesus said in Matt.24 and Mark 13. If...

    Is The Mosaic Law Passed Away ??

    Gentiles Vs. Israelites According To Dispensationalism: That should be the real title of this thread. Dispensationalism came out of 1800's Britain from the writings of John Nelson Darby. It was linked with the doctrines of the Pre-tribulational Rapture, what some later called "the secret...

    License to Sin and Building a Strawman

    That attempt to divide Jews and Gentiles is part of the false modernist views of Dispensationalism (from C.R. Stam, et al). They don't treat even The Four Gospel Books as meant for Gentile believers, but Paul's Epistles only as applying to Gentiles. Several here on this forum that support the...

    The book of James

    What Richard is preaching is the Once Saved, Always Saved (OSAS) doctrine. It is not a doctrine from God, because it preaches that once you've received Christ Jesus and been baptized, then you cannot ever do anything to lose your standing with our Lord Jesus. It is essentially the idea that even...

    The book of James

    Good witness. That is it in its simplicity. Problem with some folks is that they have left that simplicity. Our Lord Jesus told us wherever our treasure is, that's where our heart will be. And that will reveal each person's fruit. It is impossible to not have works in wherever one's heart is...

    Where Does Denial of Scripture About Hell Originate?

    Jesus speaking said... Luke 16:22-23 22 And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried; 23 And in hell (haides) he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom...

    Why Is Communism Now Using Religion?

    Sounds like you're condoning state control over religion, which is exactly what that article is about. The Russian Orthodox Church in Russia is controlled by the state, which is why the socialist state goes after Christians that refuse to be a part of it. That is not Christianity, that is state...

    Why Is Communism Now Using Religion?

    So that article on the Russian Orthodox Church's website is hoax? It was just made up, right? Those religious leaders aren't really meeting at Moscow summits at all, are they? And what they espouse has nothing to do with politics and inter-faith joining for the endtimes, right? Wrong! That's...

    The Day, The Month, the Hour and the year

    Well, those Dan.11 events certainly can serve as a multiple fulfillment pattern, especially since Antiochus IV in 170 B.C. some of those very things. But we won't actually know when the dragon is here until at minimum, the "league" of Dan.11:23 is made. We've seen many attempts with that league...
