Yes, God knows any differences that matter and is able to sort them out if and when it is necessary to do so.. What do these even older words mean? "But Judah shall dwell for ever, and Jerusalem from generation to generation. For I will cleanse their blood that I have not cleansed: for the...

Helen are you suggesting that some or all of what he wrote was not inspired by God? If we throw out one part and another person throws out another, what will be the end of it? Confusion? God certainly is not a party to that! If we don't understand it, why not simply put it on the shelf until and...

But words from the Bible spoken verbatim by an avowed atheistic with the wrong spirit are NOT the Word of God. Ditto the same words spoken by a believer when he is quenching the Holy Spirit.

I also am witness to myself in that same respect. Give God the glory!

Dogs have been some of my best friends!

And for one easy example: "And there was one Anna, a prophetess, the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Aser [Asher, son of Jacob by Zilpah, handmaiden of Leah]: she was of a great age, and had lived with an husband seven years from her virginity;" Luke 2:36

@bbyrd009 Where should we be looking other than within ourselves? Is this not where the new heavens and the new earth are or are to be? He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water." John 7:38 If there were to be a "rapture" why...

I am not certain what it is you want, but I move ahead with what I see... I read some of the posts here and see the two meanings, the one for harpazo and the very distinctly different one for rapture but someone thought rapture also meant to get caught away. It certainly does now because of...

Were the apostles not led always by the Spirit? What does it mean to be led as opposed to taking the reins in your own teeth and forging ahead? Is not the latter that which followers of Jesus were guilty when they suggested calling fire down from heaven on those they presumed were God's enemies...

If we think quietly to ourselves about someone it may not be laying hands on a person, but when we say something either positive or negative or even lukewarm about a person on an open forum, there is a good change it will affect [touch] the person as others read our opinions or statements. This...

Even if you were correct why push the issue unless someone was asking? If a person is wrong in the eyes of God, is he not condemned already? I don't understand your meaning here. You have already rejected it so why pursue it further? They would say that they do, so what is the point of...

Actually I put little stock in what people say... especially me when I have not been and am not in the Spirit. Knowing scripture without being in the Spirit of God [Love] is nothing: "And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have...

And this is important, why? Show me in scripture why being a "Christian denomination" would be important in the eyes of God. First, of course, you would have to explain what a "Christian" is and what a "denomination" is... but I cannot see myself where that would help. Wikipedia naming anyone...

On the one hand we read this: "The LORD is longsuffering, and of great mercy, forgiving iniquity and transgression, and by no means clearing the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation." Num 14:18 But then on the other hand we read...

Many may name the JWs as a cult today but with the measure of truth they had, they provided a better witness for dealing with adversity in Nazi Germany on a per capita basis than any other group/organization/church claiming to be followers of God and Jesus. The following overview is from...

"And he showed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb. In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the...

"The sky is falling"... or am I on the wrong thread again?

@"ByGrace" Helen ease up on yourself. We have all slipped and let that "old man" take charge for a moment or longer... If all of us quit posting every time we did it, it would easy to read through every single post here probably in less than an hour a day. Give God the glory!

You are arguing against the 'fire and brimstone' message that in years past has been a very popular one with many preachers. I also believe it is usually if not always the wrong way, but in this case I was trying to see the man rather than the message he was speaking. Apostle Paul was pressing...

Very probably you and others here are right on that, but that does not give any of us the right to lay our hands on him, does it? Of course we see a lot of people on this forum laying rough and abusive hands on each other, don't we? I've done it myself, but I hope I have repented when I did.
