Was it just a coincidence that both the first Temple (in 586 BC) and the second Temple (in 70 AD) were destroyed on the same day of the week in the same month?

The problems of the world will be solved when the Messiah’s government (which will include all believers) manages the world.

“An idea for your consideration” has turned out - so far - to be no idea at all to consider. That’s helping no one.

I wasn’t lecturing you. And as for the land mines, several countries are responsible for putting them there. It matters little to dead, mangled and terrified farmers and their families which countries put them there. It was, and still is decades later, a problem the people who live there must...

Neither did the rebels in Mozambique. The fields are - or at least were, when I was there - filled with land mines. That’ll put a dent in your day.

In the meantime you have ideas that you aren’t interested in discussing with someone who was there helping them, in part, solve farmland irrigation problems.

I spoke with some U.N. representatives one morning over breakfast in Blantyre, Malawi. The subject of food aid came up. I was told that the government warehouses were full to the brim with food donated by the United States. I thought perhaps then distribution must be the issue, a logistical...

I worked briefly in Africa - Malawi, Mozambique, Zimbabwe and Kenya. The people who live there have far more pressing issues to deal with. I gave a lecture at a small college in Kenya one winter’s evening. The temperature was terribly cold for them. They were all bundled up in coats, hats and...

If God and Jesus is the same person then wouldn’t “Jesus” be God’s name? Our Father in heaven is someone other than Jesus? Someone whose name isn’t “Jesus”? I don’t call our Father in heaven by his name either when speaking to him. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with addressing him by...

Do you feel uncomfortable addressing the Messiah by his name?

The sun is going to do what the sun is going to do. I worked for government environmental protection agencies for over thirty years, and I heard a lot of ideas over that time span. What are yours?

Compared to 1936, I’m living in a colder climate than did my ancestors. To call this a mini ice age, or suggesting that people where I live are on the path to an ice age - “we only have ten years left!” - would be ludicrous. Climate variation is one thing. Climate change another.

Prior to 1975 the scientists were warning of another ice age. The hottest it has ever been where I live, since records have been kept, occurred in 1936.

The dead aren’t alive. Resurrection is the only way back to life for those who have died.

The only thing that was closed was access to the Garden of Eden and the tree of life - located on earth, not in heaven.

We’ve had “less than ten years” for nearly fifty years now. Listening to the global warming prophets of doom will lead to economic destruction, and worse.

I rendered to you what is your due. That’s more than what Protestantism will do.

They went to the grave.

It sounds like you’re confusing the Garden of Eden with heaven.

Against my better judgement, Kool-Aid.
