    End times thoughts.....

    My understanding of the sequence of some prophetic events are: The rapture including: Rev 19:7-9 KJV "Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready. And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen...

    Ministers' Housing Allowance

    You said in post #2: "Me paying less taxes does not mean you paying taxes for me." Who do you think is making-up the short-fall? If government operating expenses remain constant and you have tax-exemptions I do not have, resulting in you paying less taxes on the same income, how do you...

    Does God allow Divorce Today?

    I agree. A child of God cannot live in a state of sin, adultery or otherwise, over an extended period of time without being convicted by the Holy Spirit. This is the "overcoming sin" part of the relationship and it is ongoing. OR: [Heb 12:8 KJV] 8 But if ye be without chastisement, whereof...

    Hog Wash!

    Please provide chapter and verse that leads you to believe that the United States is included in end-times prophetic. As a student of Biblical truth, I am willing to be proven wrong. Thanks for your reply to my OP.

    Do you believe a child of God can lose his/her salvation? If so, can salvation be regained?

    Has Fundamentalism Lost the Gospel?

    If the individual is under conviction of the Holy Spirit, it will not be "a one time knell and prayer" experience. It will be the beginning of an ongoing, life-long experience.
