The outer darkness is never said to be cast into the lake of fire. And it at least appears to me to be present during the thousand year reign and also AFTER death is done away with and he’ll is thrown to the lake of fire and when the new heaven and earth has come down. Im trying to see if I can...

@Ezra per your request, a thread to discuss what I believe are bad doctrines and the scriptures I base this belief on. The only doctrine we aren’t allowed to discuss is “trinity.” I was working on something else but I’m putting it on hold to have what I think could be a fruitful discussion.

sons of God means men of a certain bloodline that would branch off and be uncorrupted to bring forth Jesus from (the Branch and Shoot the prophets spoke of, how about that! The branching off, a branch from a family tree, the branch of the bloodline) and so they weren’t supposed to mate with...

His name is Kevin Zadai. I first began to listen to him sometime over the summer and some of his videos Ive listened to more than once. Most of Them are about three hours long, with About the first hour being music. If you want to give a listen, he begins speaking at about the 57 minute mark. A...

Just read something interesting. A man who said the Spirit can be in you, forming the character of Christ in you and He can also come upon you, for service. He showed verses regarding in you and verses showing upon you, like the one saying you will receive power after He comes upon you. I don’t...

17 One day Jesus was teaching, and Pharisees and teachers of the law were sitting there. They had come from every village of Galilee and from Judea and Jerusalem. And the power of the Lord was with Jesus to heal the sick. Zounds! Never noticed this. Don’t know what to make of it… I would have...

Thought I was going to be gone from forum for a bit but I was wrong. :) Is it necessary to question whether the world is in Gods control or satans control? Doesn’t it become a moot point since He works ALL things for good to those who love Him and are called by Him? You can go more than one way...

Trying to find a transcript of the entire speech rather than just the highlights I’ve read. Impressive, the parts I’ve read.

Yes, the outer darkness again. I revisit it a few times a year. A lemon is yellow and a banana is yellow. We don’t say, therefore bananas and lemons are the same thing. I need to put quarters in at a car wash and I need to put quarters in bubblegum machines. I don’t say, therefore car washes...

He sure does have a way of explaining the things along the way! And when you are in turmoil and not yet to the end of something, he calms you because you see only the beginnings, or are in the thick of it, and he gives you renewed strength to remain in peace about what’s happening. by...

Grrrrr, never mind, I can’t figure out how to share the video From YouTube. But his name is Jordan Peterson. I’ve watched him for a few years now but in just the last year or so he’s begun to talk about God and it’s been amazing to watch his journey. Truly amazing. edit: it worked!

Been wondering if we do some of the same wrong things concerning spiritual matters that we do with earthly matters and other people. For instance, when we are too young to understand much, we have a perception (that could be right or could be flawed) and we make a determination and create a...

There are more than a few verses about this. (Coming in and going out). Deut 28:6 Deut 31:2 Ps 121:8 John 10:9 Rev 3:12 There might be more, not sure. What do you think it means?

You guys know marks, right? He has driven me a bit bonkers for quite a few years in here with claims like…we are already sitting in heavenly places but we just don’t believe it. I think I would have understood him better if he had maybe said it more like…this is there for us to grab and will be...

I’m only interested in the answer a pretribber would give me. Those are the only answers I will be listening to or reading. (That doesn’t mean you can’t post another boxing match, just that I won’t read it. Lol) I’ve tried to ask the question in a thread or two but I guess it’s just gotten lost...

There were 3 main festivals that every man had to attend - Passover, Pentecost, Tabernacles. Passover was at time of barley harvest. Pentecost, wheat harvest. Tabernacles, olives and grapes. So “do not harm the oil (from olives) and the wine” (from grapes) makes some sense to me now. The thing...

I know these verses go together. Honor your mother. Hate your mother. (And even your own life). Who is my mother and brother? Let the dead bury their own dead. I know they GO together but I can’t PUT them together. They aren’t IN me in an integrated understanding. As my friend would say, I’m a...

Paralambano - to take to oneself, to take alongside oneself, to receive to oneself. To acknowledge that someone is who they say they are. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I am coming again and will (paralambano) take you to Myself, so that where I am, there you also will be. so will...

I have more recently been having an odd struggle. I’ve always been a pretty hard worker, but more recently, I cannot seem to rouse myself to it. I’ve chastised myself for why I’m suddenly so lazy. I can’t even cajole myself into doing some furniture to sell. I just cannot. And I love doing...

So I was thinking about something @Lambano said the other day about…Jesus absolutely having to be tempted just as we are and the struggle we have trying to understand it that He could be tempted if He was God. So what was His temptation? Satan didn’t say, if You are the son of man, turn this...
