I kid you not, this poster cannot see his own convoluted arguments. This poster is pretending there is no contradictions in his statements. Concerning the Trinity, he said “I had no idea” when he was saved. He then claims he believed the Trinity when he was saved. He pretends “believing the...

Revelation 7: The 144000 are identified. Then a “multitude too large to count from” all over the world, wearing white robes and worshipping God. They are identified as “those that came out of the Great Tribulation.” Peace to you

Cool beans. Agreed Correct. Context determines meaning. And my point is, given that Jesus Himself spoke so often of Christians suffering persecution, how could the metaphor of the bride be “destroyed and meaningless” when Christians go through the great tribulation? These are judgements upon...

???? Serious or joking? Peace to you

This is part of your opening post. This is from your post #96 By your own statement you did not believe in the Trinity (you had no idea) when you were saved, yet you have attempted to impose it on others as a requirement for salvation. Frankly, I think you just post so much cowpie you can’t...

Peace to you

You did say much more than faith in God is necessary for salvation, but then attempted to walk it back when you were called out. Not only do you rewrite scripture to conform to your beliefs, you deny your own posts to conform to the immediate argument. No, you are claiming the verses you...

I know, in your mind, you believe that to be true. You stated much more than faith in God is “required” for salvation. You are demanding mental assent to specific theological facts that must be believed prior to salvation. Scripture clearly disagrees. That is a very old heresy called...

You seem to believe your salvation experience is a template by which everyone else must follow I knew a man, good guy nice Christian, that believed you must weep when you are saved because he did. Repentance requires weeping. He refused to believe folks were saved if they didn’t weep at...

Just personal attacks from someone who admits he changes the words of scripture to fit his beliefs. Correct Where does it says we “must” believe that yo be saved? Where does it say we “must” believe that yo be saved? Where does it say we “must” believe that to be saved? Where does it say...

Thank you for sharing your experience. We all can learn from others experience, their journey of understanding the truths of God. Peace to you

Thanks for sharing May God grant his family peace beyond understanding Peace to you

You are correct. It is difficult to comprehend. I have found comfort in the idea that God must always condescend to us. That is, God is so different from anyone else that exists (He is truly unique) that He must refer to Himself in ways we can understand. He is Father, which is true but not...

Paul gave what was of first importance: Christ died for our sins, according to the scriptures He was buried and raised from the dead, according to the scripture He was seen, after His resurrection by more than 500 people that knew He had died. If you confess with your mouth, Jesus is Lord...

I stand corrected, after 1000 years, Satan is freed. Just because the martyred saints reign with Christ for 1000 years, doesn’t mean Christ reigns on earth. Christ throne in heaven is an “eternal” throne. Christ reigns in heaven. John is writing in repeating themes.. this one of Satan causing...

There is no separate future for Jews and the Church. Paul teaches us in Ephesians the two groups have been made into “one new man” by the cross of Christ, bound together in the power of indwelling God Holy Spirit. That one new man cannot be separated because the work of Jesus on the cross...

Well, apparently those numbers were not too high to count, though I doubt they counted exactly 800,000 and 500,000, but it’s possible. The 144000 of Revelation is obviously symbolic. There are 12 tribes of Israel. There are 12000 from each tribe. The numbers are too large to count. The...

Thank you This is not necessarily referring to the Great tribulation. However, verse supports my belief professing Christians will endure persecution and some will fall away to avoid it. This will be most evident during the Great Tribulation, which Jesus refers to as a time apostasy (falling...

Which is why I said almost always Agreed I see no mention of tribulation in Matthew 13:31 Agreed 1 Thess 1:6 clearly refers to persecution of Christians Agreed Not “many”. You mentioned three. And these three are not speaking of the Great Tribulation Agreed. I attempt to look at all the...

You stated this in response to my statement that “tribulation” refers to Christians in particular and not mankind in general. I consider you to be quite the scholar. You are obviously well studied, and knowledgeable of scripture and the biblical languages if you will forgive me for the...
