    Synagogues and Christian Churches

    ... whilst the context above highlights the futility of established 'main stream churches', I have heard it also confirms (on different levels) the statement with which the Pharisees ultimately 'announced & confessed publicly their guilt regarding the death of Jesus'.John 19:14-1514 - And it was...

    Lent?

    well - well - well ....- how eager people are to defend the indefensible- how eager, to find more excuses to spin & attach christian meanings to pagan celebrations - simply because they like the 'warm & fuzzy' feeling these rituals give the conscience ...- how eager, to find more reasons to do...

    God's Eternal Purpose

    Not bad.Shame most of the self styled 'pastors' wont stoop low enough to even contemplate grass roots level comments.Jer 12:10; Jer 23:2; Jeremiah is very clear about God's attitude towards these rebels who have made themselves into idols.Anyone seriously enquiring of the Lord will sooner or...

    Romans 9:6-8

    ... from another thread ....... sourced from Gen 21:12, ... above Scripture leads some to extrapolate interesting views:Like most early Semitic alphabetic writing systems, the alef-bet has no vowels. People who are fluent in the language do not need vowels to read Hebrew, and most things written...

    Tradition

    Thanks Jim, and I like your question.As far as I have read in the Word & understood from my years 'in the wilderness with God', there is a vital difference between Prophets & the Priesthood/Assembly.Prophets have generally always worked 'outside' the established guidelines of a community, didn't...

    Pagan Symbolism Of Roman Catholic Church

    QUOTE (Jordan @ Mar 1 2009, 04:39 AM) Yes we know that, but I know that this is going to be locked. We will not single out any Religion and / or Denomination. It is of men and for men. I repeat we will not single out any of them. Churches in today's times are guilty of this... Not just Roman...

    Tradition

    Hell, an interesting subject in itself.There are 31 occurences of the word 'Hell' in the OT.First time mentioned in Deuteronomy 32:22, barely before Josua leads Israel to cross the river Jordan (means that Adam, Noah, Abraham and on until Moses - didn't know they had to worry about 'hell').There...

    Nephilim

    Interesting subject.If God has no use of human's physical body, how then do these scriptures fit?- 2 Kings 2:11; Elija's removal from earth in the chariot of fire. Did his body miraculously change from physical to supernatural?- Gen 5:24; And Enoch walked with God: and he was not; for God took...

    Why Didn't Jesus Or Apostles Establish Hospitals Or Charities?

    It seems that there's a very unhealthy drive by so-called christian churches, to convince or 'press-gang' their believers to fund a pastor's personal vision with financial blessings - essentially trying to achieve with monetary means, what the Holy Spirit doesn't do in their church.Whilst in...

    Double Standards? Religion Vs God?

    Thanks Dunamite, for being gentle .... ;-)It's an agreeable answer, highlighting our personal responsibility & walk with the Holy Spirit.Unfortunately this attitude is not one which many main stream churches like to foster.I'm not sure how far 'I'm God - I change not' (Mal 3:6) can or should be...

    Double Standards? Religion Vs God?

    Hi all, new member here. Been reading through forum - nice.Been thinking about the Judah/Tamar situation (Genesis 38), where it seems that Judah needed to 'satisfy' some rather urgent needs (understandable for a bloke, after a hard day's work?). Judah, quite openly, perceives there to be a...
