This passage records the words of Jesus to his disciple Cleopas and his unnamed disciple companion on the Emmaus Road on Sunday, the day of the resurrection of Jesus Christ. The hopes of the kingdom they had been preaching with Jesus for 3 plus years had gone away with his death in Jerusalem...

The Bible is not for 10 year olds to understand. You think it is probably, but it isn't. Neither is the Bible for unsaved people to understand. The Bible is for a lifetime of study by those who wants to know the mind of God. God says it is here a little and there a little. The gospel is to be...

This will be my last post to you on this subject lest I be perceived to argue. I am preaching the truth, not arguing it. It is understood that you will not receive it, which is fine. I can only present the truth, I cannot make anyone believe it. This is the last point I will make to you about...

Yes, I refer you to the Davidic Covenant which is in 2 Samuel 7 and following. Psalm 89 is a Psalm about this covenant, every word. I will first quote a couple of things the psalmist says about it from that great Psalm. 3 I have made a covenant with my chosen, I have sworn unto David my...

ky, I am a dispensationalist because of the covenants of God. I understand and believe God will save Israel collectively, as one man, with an everlasting salvation, not because Israel is good, but because God promised to save them in covenants to which he swore with an oath to do. And, ky, he...

Just a short brief here. When Paul is dealing with the "promise" he is dealing with the very last of the 12 parts of the Abrahamic covenant. All the other parts deals with physical promises such as a family, a land, a nation etc.. You can read it for yourself. I posted much of the covenant...

Ac 2:5 And there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, out of every nation under heaven. Ac 2:12 And they were all amazed, and were in doubt, saying one to another, What meaneth this? 13 Others mocking said, These men are full of new wine. 14 But Peter, standing up with the...

Yes, but first, a correction. I did not say Jesus comes to earth and sits on the Father's throne. I said Jesus is sitting on the Father's throne now, since his ascension. Mt 19:28 And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That ye which have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son...

How does this answer the question? Are you thinking in terms of a physical birth? 35 Then Jesus said unto them, Yet a little while is the light with you. Walk while ye have the light, lest darkness come upon you: for he that walketh in darkness knoweth not whither he goeth. 36 While ye have...

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.
