    Easter 2024

    Without the controversy, the reasoning for Easter's date was to somewhat conform to the Jewish calendar for Passover. However, the church used only a solar calendar and there were no months like the Jews use in their calendar. Since the Gregorian (the Julian back then) have 12 months, they had...

    Is the "eternal fire" of Sodom still burning? - Nope

    I have come to believe that the fires of hell are really the glory of the Lord, where no man can look on the Lord and live, and likewise the chaff is burned up, forever gone. There are countless such references in scripture stating what I just said. Those who are like him, born of the Spirit...

    The Disappearing Database

    Thanks. I was wondering what happened to it. I know which forum you mean. This is about 3 days now as of the time of my post here. Let's hope that they had a back-up and that it was merely a hardware failure as opposed to cyber attack. In the latter case, my advice is don't use the most well...

    Romans 11 and the real Replacement Theology

    I'll admit my grammar needs correcting - "to make" room should have been "that made" room. I keep personal computer logs (like a diary) and I find I make bad mistakes all the time I must correct.That was not always my strong point. As for the fullness of the nations, that is an allusion to...

    Romans 11 and the real Replacement Theology

    Well, they are part of Israel. They just aren't saved yet (if that's your concern). Israel is a genealogical nation and family. It takes that for the Gentiles to be believers in Christ. Without the genealogy, there is no spiritual Israel of God that is, unless one has a Jesus or God of their...

    Romans 11 and the real Replacement Theology

    Sure. But then such people are graphed in. There has to be a tree to do so.

    Romans 11 and the real Replacement Theology

    1 &2: Genesis 32:28 the new name given to Jacob 3: 12 sons and a daughter 4: No, Jews are the citizens of mostly the tribes of Judah and Benjamin aka the house of Judah. The rest are so-called "lost tribes" prophesied to become a Great nation and many nations to the house to Joseph. Joseph...

    Romans 11 and the real Replacement Theology

    I'm not sure of all the ways, but God has His ways as stated in His word (Hosea 5:3), even in their "lost tribes" state: I know Ephraim, And Israel is not hidden from Me; For now, O Ephraim, you commit harlotry; Israel is defiled.

    Romans 11 and the real Replacement Theology

    Well, I have a minor in mathematics but come to a different logical conclusion than you do. As a matter of fact, so did Sir Isaac Newton. While coming to a supposed logical conclusion is commendable, we also have to be aware of logical fallacies that have the appearance of truth. The truth is...

    Christians Wake up!

    I agree with you 100%. A lot of the bad doctrine that you are talking about crept in from other cultures and paganism. Maybe it's because I'm a Sir Isaac Newton-like time freak, but I do get hung up (maybe more than I ought to) about the Sabbath and Feast Days of Leviticus 23. Unlike some...

    Should you buy a new electric car..

    I personally would not even think of an electric powered car as per the reasons already pointed out. One of the greatest fears with an EV is "range anxiety" and even if there was a charging station the time it takes to charge. It makes no sense from an ecological POV, and that of physics as...

    7 PAGAN FESTIVALS WE STILL CELEBRATE TODAY ~ under the guise of Christian celebrations and names.

    I know the answers already given I'm into calendars and the like. First of all, the Orthodox calendar (i.e. Julian) v.s. Gregorian: The Orthodox add a leap day every 4 years. Thus the year averages 365.25 days. The Gregorian adds a leap day every 4 years minus century years except for those...

    Americans who attend church online read the Bible more than those who attend in person : study

    Regarding Bible reading every once in awhile I post this chart. I'd say a true Christian who has access to the Bible must be in the top two categories with the exception that one is a new Christian who hasn't been able to read the Bible thru once yet. Even when I was a boy (before I formally...

    7 PAGAN FESTIVALS WE STILL CELEBRATE TODAY ~ under the guise of Christian celebrations and names.

    Yes, these are pagan which is why I personally observe the feast days (Leviticus 23) instead. I can't speak for my family or the decorations that go up but Christmas especially is a hokey kind of holiday.The only good thing about these holidays is that's when people take off from work so you...

    Strange teachings

    RIght. The feasts clarify the finished work of Christ. They are the time lines that Jesus followed the first time and will again at His second coming.

    Strange teachings

    Usually I answer the OP, but what you say caught my eye with a bit of humor. Years back I started observing feast days in Leviticus 23 and if for no other reason, it's to give God His time and it's a valuable lesson as to the redemption of mankind. As Paul stated it's "shadows of things to...

    Was Jesus sent to rule as the Messiah or was he sent to die for the sins of humanity?

    Both. The latter at His first Coming and the former at His Second Coming. Jews only saw the former criteria for Messiah, thus Jesus was a total failure due to their concept of Messiah. But His coming the first time to die was to defeat Satan, pay the penalty of sin, and open up the way for men...

    Please pray for Australia (even a short prayer?)

    I'll pray and I noticed the traditional Commonwealth nations are in trouble these days, throwing morality out the window it seems. Once being the greatest empire in history, I fear not too many understand what is going on and how that was just tossed aside to the likes of the Wokeness and other...

    Beware of Crypto "Investment" Schemes!

    I noticed you said hospital. That's a lot of the problem. Many use outdated Microsoft operating systems which is extremely insecure to begin with, let alone something that is not updated any longer. I know. My wife works in the medical field billing and I can attest to that. Fortunately for...
