God speaks to us in ways that God chooses, when we are responsive that is the Light we should have. I know from fellowship there are believers who know many passages from the Bible, that they can say. But not always are they known from the context that shows the meaning better. And conscience is...

Luke 21:8-9, 21:25-26 “Watch out that you don’t get led astray, for many will come in my name, saying, ‘I am he,’ and, ‘The time is at hand.’ Therefore don’t follow them. When you hear of wars and disturbances, don’t be terrified, for these things must happen first, but the end won’t come...

Elihu was a common name. Among several with this name in the Bible, one was a brother of David, one was an ancestor to David, and another one was an ancestor to Samuel. This Elihu who spoke to Job seems to be a common man as well, though showing godly wisdom while being younger than others...

People reading things in the Bible talk about God's justice. But what does God's justice mean without fairness from God? What consequences come from God ultimately will be fair. None of that is yet desirable to any. We have all been hurtful to some others, with our sinful life, being contrary to...

God's way to communicate the revelation from God is effective to individuals that another way would not have been. So some things that seem unusual or even "weird" as expression to use to some of us still was needed for others. We can trust God with that, as God is not willing that any just...

If we are really faithful we can have victory and the enemy would not succeed with us. So we should be focused on God, rather than the enemy, for that. And God's Spirit with us is assurance for that.

We have our choices, and responsibility with those. Peter had responsibility, even believing so, that he said what he would do that very night, when Jesus would be taken, contrary to what Jesus said would happen, but while Peter could have done differently, Jesus said it because Peter wasn't...

I looked up where imputed is said in the Bible. I found one place in the Bible with that word. It is Leviticus 17:4. I am familiar with the concept of imputed righteousness in Christianity. But as being imputed with Christ's righteousness is not specifically said in the Bible, I see why I have...

What the bride of Christ depicted in prophecy will be is the whole unity of the real redeemed believers who are brought to the restored creation in which all of the creation that were groaning for it will have their hope fulfilled there. This whole unity of real redeemed believers there ever...

What is hell? Does anyone know? What we have shown in biblical passages is imagery as what hell is would only be depicted symbolically, it is with what is outside of our experience. God is fair, that does not mean any of us will be rewarded for doing things we should be doing, that is not good...

I will not argue about the rapture. There are passages we know of that support a position on that. But focus on it has such who speak of it distracted from other things including things said in the Bible such as other coming things, and our responsibilities. There is the call to God's people...

We should know God put in place the provisions we need, we sometimes have to act on doing what is needed for those, with it revealed somewhere or in some way how to do so.

The one prophesied to come with description as a great beast will come after there is collapse, which is coming, which with promises from that one will be the way that all the world will follow him, other than few willing to give up their lives in this world for the sake of faithfulness to God...

There is nothing that establishes the Textus Receptus as the one authorative set of passages to the exclusion of the other ancient manuscripts, and there are many points of disagreement, it is unsupported faith that the King James Version Bible is the one correct translation and others are wrong...

I am guessing there is no one looking at Isaiah 24 and seeing the connection, there was not any response to my suggesting it anyway. Regardless of what is concluded about the timing of prophesied tribulation, I see connection of the fall of Mystery Babylon with prophecy of collapse of all the...
