I don't have much confidence in Gail Riplinger for several reasons but I have been looking for some proper adjectives that describes my view of John Calvin's "Institutes of the Christian Religion." You have nailed it here without even trying. Note to self: bookmark this post for an adjective...

No, I have not failed to address this Olivet Discourse. It is a prophecy that takes place on Wednesday of the week when Jesus Christ is crucified by his own nation, Judah. This is not a prophecy about you or me and it is improper and confusing for you to ignore the context. It is in the context...

What good does it do you guys to have a Bible? You cannot discern it's truths. You do not understand "the times" and the one time you are living in "now," you cannot comprehend it's mysteries. God's history is divided into times, all designed by God to culminate in his perfect will being...

The reason is because Timothy was in the church at Ephesus in the province of Asia and most of the members of that church and all the churches in that whole region were of the dispersed of the 10 tribe nation of Israel who were cut off by the Assyrians in 722 BC. I am told that genealogical...

The scriptures makes the answer to this question clear if we discern them by the Spirit and through the scriptures and consider that two groups of Jews occupied the land when Jesus came to speak to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. They were the orthodox and the Grecians and it seems they...

I think I remember you writing that the Japanese had a Bible already before you showed up. Why did you spend so much time translating a Bible in Japanese if they already had one? Why not just stab a sinner with it?

Thank you Charlie24. After seeing the various ways people interpret this passage as if these words I mentioned are not even part of the text or they have no relationship to the entire discourse or if they see no continuity of the mentioned events in spite of the language and the times and...

Mt 25:31 When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory: 32 And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats: 33 And he...

Romans was written in 58 AD and Paul, the author thought there were Jews and gentiles. Rom 3:9 What then? are we better than they? No, in no wise: for we have before proved both Jews and Gentiles, that they are (present tense) all under sin; He actually thought he was a saved Jew in 58 AD...

I am a futurist and I have no problem understanding why the Law of Moses was given to the nation and people of Israel as a temporary operative principle of divine dealing and it was not given to gentiles. It was added to the Abrahamic Covenant after 430 years as an Addendum to it to condition...

I have one verse for you that you or he are probably going to not believe and it has to do with words. The best one can do is just hope you do not argue against what it says. 1 Cor 1:10 Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that...

I just need to know if you ever read the Bible with reason and logic. 6 And Judah took a wife for Er his firstborn, whose name was Tamar. 7 And Er, Judah's firstborn, was wicked in the sight of the Lord; and the Lord slew him. 8 And Judah said unto Onan, Go in unto thy brother's wife, and marry...

God knows all things by one eternal act of knowing. If you have a father and mother the question is answered for you. God is not your father according to the flesh. You cannot blame God that you are a sinner but you can blame your dad and his father, Adam. Knowing that all men were under the...

God did not create but one man and one woman. From that point on, all humanity was generated. Genesis 5:1 This is the book of the generations of Adam. In the day that God created man, in the likeness of God made he him; The trinitarian image of the nations came through Noah Genesis 6:9 These...

Paul, the apostle to the gentiles, essentially the church of Jesus Christ, who never addresses him as King, but rather as Lord, wrote 13 letters to the gentiles describing the grace of God in making a way for our entrance into this great salvation, never referred to us as sheep. He used the...

I have two things to say Alan; Pr 14:8 The wisdom of the prudent is to understand his way: but the folly of fools is deceit. Not his words but his way. Isa 28:9 Whom shall he teach knowledge? and whom shall he make to understand doctrine? [them that are] weaned from the milk, [and] drawn...

Sorry if I confused you, Van, it certainly was not my intent and what I said about believing words is just the common way that information is passed from one to another. Let me state my point again for clarity and maybe expand on it somewhat. I made the point that chapters 24 and 25 were both...

Consider this argument for literal and historical interpretation which leaves opinion out. A most important adverb for understanding. If understanding takes place one must believe this word in the text. 5119 tote [tot -eh] from (the neuter of) 3588 and 3753; adv; AV-then 149, that...

"beginning at Jerusalem," not ending at Jerusalem. I have read the whole New Testament and am aware of the history from then until now and this is exactly what has happened. Since God has freely offered it without anyone in those nations being required to earn it, which, of course, no one...
