In an instant, it will seem, to those who are asleep in death. It’s Jesus’ second coming that Paul was looking for. That’s the reunion event for the living and the dead. It sounds to me like Paul wanted to continue his work and that he hoped Jesus would return before he died. He’s confident...

I don’t think Paul wished to die. Who wants to die? I don’t. Do you? His race, his work, would be over if he died. There is good in that. He has completed the work he was given to do; he has run the race set before him and finished it. All that remains for him is receiving his reward. There is...

Two persons, not three persons; not the Trinity. You don’t see the Trinity in John 1:1. Neither do I. That’s something we have in common. The binitarians and unitarians also have that in common with us. The book of John is about God and Jesus; God and man. In John 1:1, I see John speaking...

Do you see three persons in John 1:1? If not, you don’t see the Trinity in John 1:1. (I think this is why a few trinitarians I’ve spoken with have said they see three persons in the verse.) When John speaks about God in the verse he isn’t speaking about your deity. I believe he is speaking about...

In my experience, virtually all trinitarians do. I’ve spoken with a few who don’t. John isn’t speaking about the Trinity in John 1:1. Is John talking about two persons or only one person in John 1:1? In my experience with them, trinitarians - with very few exceptions - will say that John is...

Nothing.

Those are good points, but that’s not what I see going on in John 1:1.

I’m thinking that and more. The greater works being the evangelism done on a larger scale by the apostles and on a still larger scale by disciples over the centuries as the gospel is spread throughout the entire world.

“Some people wonder why I’m such a homebody. It’s because, when I was 19, I was doing things you can’t imagine.” - Alfred B. Luna, Vietnam veteran Think twice before joining the military.

Forums are wilder rides than anything Six Flags has to offer.

What do you say they are?

The governments of the world at all levels are a mixture of good and evil. I was there. I saw it. I lived it. City, County, State, National, International. A mixture of good and evil.

John isn’t speaking about the Trinity in John 1:1 when John speaks about God. Would you agree or disagree with that @RLT63?

Dabar is the word or message of God (it’s also the word or message of others). It first exists inwardly, in the mind. It is with a person (God or not God) as a person being alone with their thoughts. It then exists outwardly, in spoken, written or signaled expression of the mind. That brings me...

Jesus had nothing to do with the message Jeremiah received from Yahweh. I checked the passage on Bible Gateway, looking to see if any translator capitalized the “w”. Only one did, NLV: “Now the Word of the Lord came to me saying, …” That brings me to John 1:1.

God knows. The Messiah didn’t know then but he may know now.

Members are discussing today, in another thread, red heifers and construction of the Third Temple. How do those things work with your four year timeline?

It has been said on these forums - in fact, guaranteed - that the two witnesses will appear in Jerusalem on the day after Passover next year and that the end will come upon us in four years. That doesn’t leave much time for red cows and the third Temple. Meanwhile, the climate alarmists have...
