I will check it out after church tonight. If it works out I might quiz my pastor about it.

Is that what you have learned from your favorite translation? Answer that question and I might be better equipped to answer yours.

I heard the joke, What would you be if not a Baptist? The answer came: I would be ashamed. I say, Me too. But I began attending the Baptist church while still in my mother's womb, and chose to be a Baptist after my conversion. I have tried to be a careful student of the word since I was 25...

He is returning with the church and the heavenly host to inaugurate his kingdom reign over the earth while purging out all remaining unbelievers. Psa 115:15 Ye are blessed of the Lord which made heaven and earth. 16 The heaven, even the heavens, are the Lord's: but the earth hath he given to...

Most, maybe even you, miss the reason for his return. The new Bibles do nothing but worsen the problem.

I call adjustments within dispensations by the term - "transitions). Gen 15 where Jesus begins to be identified by the title "the word of the LORD" and by the name of Adonay Jehovah (Lord GOD) as opposed previously as Jehovah Elohym (LORD God). He is prominent under this title in all the...

Here is my definitions of dispensational: 1) Exemption from a rule or usual requirement. - i.e. Dietary laws in Acts 10. 2) A system of order, government, or organization of a nation, community, etc., especially as existing at a particular time. - i.e. the Mosaic system over Israel 3 In...

My take: Paul, the apostle charged with instructing the church as to what they should do to please God, (Ro 15:18 For I will not dare to speak of any of those things which Christ hath not wrought by me, to make the Gentiles obedient, by word and deed) did not use the word tithe in all his 13...

( The question concerning the Christians relationship to the law of Moses was answered at the Jerusalem counsel in Acts 15. It remains our instruction today.

Some additional thoughts on thirteen (13) Gen 13:13 - first mention of sinners in the KJV Genesis 13:13 But the men of Sodom were wicked and sinners before the Lord exceedingly. Saul, the King of Israel, lost his kingly dynasty in 1 Sam 13:13 13 And Samuel said to Saul, Thou hast done...

@Ben1445 Thanks Ben, I can see that you have it figured out. I will say this one thing that always offends me when you guys call the number structure in God's own book "numerology." But it is not something I desire to discuss with you.

Using logic, it is strange that God would work so hard to send an indwelling teacher of his New Covenant only to resort to an OT expedient. I think the duty assigned to the disciples for those ten days was to wait until he got there and then he would teach them what to do. Barnabas was not...

Mt 19:27 Then answered Peter and said unto him, Behold, we have forsaken all, and followed thee; what shall we have therefore? 28 And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That ye which have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of his glory, ye...

Yes! Unbelievers. Someone who does not believe is an unbeliever. The Bible is for believers and, according to it, are the only people who can be taught by it.

What is the regeneration of Mt 19:28? Is it the same as the restitution of all things in the near future? Acts 3:20-21 20 And he shall send Jesus Christ, which before was preached unto you: 21 Whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by...

Why is there a fixed number of 12 apostles in the church of Jesus Christ as it relates to Israel and one (1) apostle in the church as it relates to gentiles? Since the church of Jesus Christ is an eternal entity, and there will never be any more or any less or any different apostles than those...

Faith in what God says is the evidence. This according to He 11:1. According to Titus 1, God cannot lie. If one believes God ever gave a perfect testimony then you believe it is possible to have one. One of your own on another thread found an error in the KJV and corrected it with the NASB, It...

I don't believe that.

I can not always answer the why but I can track the reality of a doctrine. The number 12 is God's number for his perfect government.

Consider this verse and the context it is in and tell me what you think. Matthew 19:28 And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That ye which have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of his glory, ye also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging...
