Yes! Gen 12:1 Now the LORD had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father s house, unto a land that I will shew thee: 2 And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing: 3 And I...

Yes! Ps 2:6 Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion. Ps 10:16 The LORD [is] King for ever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land. Ps 24:7 Lift up your heads, O ye gates; and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in. Ps 24:8 Who [is] this...

ky, What point are you wanting us to see by posting those passages?

The purpose of God is clearly stated in the gospels accounts of the earthly ministry of Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ came to establish his kingdom in the earth and over the earth according to the prophecies that had been written over the years and to this time. John the Baptist, his fore runner...

I appreciate that Van for the thoughtful response but I approach the scriptures a little differently from some on the discussion thread. I think God does things on absolutely precise timing as well as with precise words. We as mortal men must resist the temptation of relying on our own abilities...

I plead guilty of the charge of being dumb, but I do not confess to being ignorant.

My Bible does not say what your Bible says, so I can't compare. Where there are many books that are different, there is no authority, but many opinions. I am staying with one book and it is my authority for my doctrine. My Bible , for instance, did not say it would have been better, it says it...

Mt 26:24 The Son of man goeth as it is written of him: but woe unto that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! it had been good for that man if he had not been born. How does a statement like this by the creator, Jesus Christ, square with Calvinisms/Reformed teaching. In his sovereignty, as...

If I understand my Bible correctly, Jesus Christ, the son of God, is the word of God personified., Do you agree? In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

Psalm 3:7 Arise, O Lord; save me, O my God: for thou hast smitten all mine enemies upon the cheek bone; thou hast broken the teeth of the ungodly. In Context | Full Chapter | Other Translations Psalm 7:6 Arise, O Lord, in thine anger, lift up thyself because of the rage of mine enemies: and...

I am attempting in this thread to show the application of the Psalms, in a prophetic and actual and practical sense, are to be applied to the people of God, Israel, with whom he has a covenant relationship. That people is Israel. In none of the Psalms are we to understand that the church of...

This is true Van as I see it. God has appointed a time for his anger similar to his anger in the days of Noah. He calls this time that he has reserved "the day of judgement. The official title for it is "the day of the LORD." It is the appointed time that he is taking sin out of the world by...

I must agree with you on this. It is my opinion that translations into other languages should be from the original language manuscripts.

Charlie24, please understand that Jesus Christ was not preaching the gospel of the grace of God or the gospel of salvation. Notice the precision of the words. Your quote: Christ said, the Gospel will be preached in all the world as a witness to all nations, and then the end will come. Biblical...

No one could track the themes through the Bible unless there was a consistency through the words. These words record a Divine mind. Ones could not come to the same conclusion on doctrines if they had more than one edition of the scriptures. These 12 Psalms that develop a theme of God being...
