    Moses or Christ? Paul's Reply to Dispensational Error

    When were the disciples of Jesus born again? What caused Jesus’ disciples to be receptive to His teachings and follow Him? Does new birth mean having the Holy Spirit near you or having Him inside you? How were the disciples different on the day of Pentecost? What did they receive on the day...

    Moses or Christ? Paul's Reply to Dispensational Error

    As I understand it, The Holy Spirit could be temporarily placed upon a person, giving them a new heart, but the Holy Spirit was not permanently in them as “Christ in you” via a new birth. 1 Samuel 16:14 Now the Spirit of the LORD departed from Saul, and a spirit of distress from the LORD...

    Moses or Christ? Paul's Reply to Dispensational Error

    False prophets make failed predictions. If we knew the exact minute Christ will return, what benefit would that be for us? People come up with predictions to gain followers and to sell books.

    Today is Earth Day

    It most certainly is the issue. Unregulated corporations will never be ethical or care about human safety or the environment. Government has to force them to stop being greedy and protect us and the earth. You would be more credible if you used normal default size type, instead of enlarging...

    Moses or Christ? Paul's Reply to Dispensational Error

    Psalm 94:14 For the LORD will not cast off his people, neither will he forsake his inheritance. Romans 11:1 I say then, Hath God cast away his people? God forbid. For I also am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin. "Shall nation will be born in a day?" is a phrase...

    Moses or Christ? Paul's Reply to Dispensational Error

    Then there is a discontinuity between the Old Testament and the New Testament. Two different dispensations or covenants governing those who believe in God.

    Do you trust unregulated corporations to be ethical and not poison the air, water, food, medicine?

    Today is Earth Day

    The bottom line reality is that corporations will not be ethical unless they are forced to be. They pursue profit only. So we need godly people in government to impose righteous regulations on them to protect humanity and the environment. Left on their own, corporations are greedy, selfish...

    Today is Earth Day

    I agree that government bureaucrats can be uncaring and just implementing political agendas disguised as conservation of the environment. But look at lead in the water in Flint, Michigan. Government may have still not corrected the problem, but water companies see no profit in replacing lead...

    Recommending The Apocalypse of John by Milton S Terry - has anyone else read it?

    Key problems associated with preterism include… Denial of Future Resurrection and Parousia: Full Preterism (or Hyper-Preterism) argues that the resurrection and the Second Coming (Parousia) occurred in AD 70, leaving no future physical hope for believers. This is often deemed heretical as it...

    Today is Earth Day

    Hundreds of years we lived without oil spills, factory smoke, chemicals dumped into rivers, toxins released into the air. The Industrial Revolution began the pollution of earth. Is it okay for corporations and factories to pollute the air and water? Without government regulation, they will...

    Dispensational Truth - In Time & Eternity

    Ekklesia (Greek: ἐκκλησία) is a New Testament term derived from ek ("out of") and kaleo ("to call"), thus those who have been called out of the world of sinners to belong to Christ. It can refer to a specific local assembly or to the total number of all born again Christians throughout history...

    Today is Earth Day

    Earth Day was founded by U.S. Senator Gaylord Nelson and first held on April 22, 1970, to protest environmental degradation following a massive 1969 California oil spill. Inspired by student anti-war "teach-ins," it mobilized 20 million Americans, leading to landmark environmental laws to...

    Recommending The Apocalypse of John by Milton S Terry - has anyone else read it?

    But quickly in God’s timeframe is different from quickly in human perception. Quickly often means certainly and suddenly. Jesus has not yet returned and has not yet rendered to each person their reward.

    Pentecostal vs Charismatic

    Charismatics tend to use “anointed” to mean what gives them a good feeling, is exciting, or is something they approve of. The Bible uses “anointed” in specific situations. In the Bible, anointing with oil is performed in religious ceremonies and used for showing hospitality, personal hygiene...
