Are you accusing me of being a false teacher? Rather than ask for clarification of what I said, you wrote a whole sermon about how wrong I am, and falsely equated things I've said with false teachings... How dare you, you are quite judgemental. You've manipulated my words, but i can't report...

It could be as simple as "Jesus ascended, the others were taken." No one has, or can, ascend on their own.

Root words mean to "rub with olive oil." Same root as the word "massage." The ritual background and significance to Jesus is not likely short, nor simple.

Oh yeah dude, I experience the Love, for sure, man. I used to be a hippie philosopher, also.

It requires much greater focus and dedication... Studying the Bible offers much benefit, but seeking the presence and acknowledgement of God leads us to experiencing Him.

In part, it was my intent to show others how frequently harpazo was used, (14x) and how simple the translation should be. I believe I did include at least two accepted meanings, as well as a modern translation.

Harpazo is the Greek word from which we get the Latin transliteration "rapture." It simply means, "to seize," or, "take," but the modern Greek just translates it as "snatch." So, why do we refer to harpazo with a Latin transliteration? This is likely due to the fact that a transliteration for...

What has this to do with anything I've said? I've examined the Isaiah Scroll and have confirmed the spelling of a specific word, and you ramble on about a Mormon "scholar?" You've made no point. It's seems you've only dispensed information that is irrelevant.

"Lucifer" This only exists because of an error in the Latin Vulgate, which reveals itself in Isaiah. The most reliable text agrees that this name, Lucifer, was the result of a spelling error, admitted by Jerome, himself. I'm sorry, but your entire rebuttal is quite subjective and misleading...

...you didn't read what I wrote. You really didn't read it... Please refrain from attempting to school me if you haven't even taken a moment to read ALL that I've said. Okay......... "Modern Bible movement???" Well, I see that, and am one of the researchers, who have obtained older, more...

Yes, I saw that you were intentionally quoting the phrase. My response was addressing that concept, from a different, perhaps more verifiable, perspective. My apology for not viewing the video you offered, I just don't allow myself to consume media that includes biblical teaching by others.

Thanks for your kind offer, but I'm not looking for help. I was just passing on information. I don't watch, or listen to, the teachings of others. I find most media to be manipulative and dogmatic... So I am unable to view your YouTube video. If this isn't a topic that can be openly discussed...

"Modern translations often use "God" in John 1:18 instead of "Son" because earlier and more reliable Greek manuscripts, such as Codex Sinaiticus, use the phrase monogenēs theos ("only-begotten God" or "unique God")." It's not a "changed doctrine," it's a corrected error from manuscripts that...

Most people use this rule of thumb: "If somebody doesn't believe what I do." It's just as easy to be labeled a false teacher as it is to label someone else. Just read through the comments following some of the Bible discussion topics, and you'll find many people labeling each other's beliefs...

One characteristic of the millennial kingdom is that every nation has a representative who travels to Jerusalem to participate in the "Feast of Tabernacles," every year. When that is happening, you will be in the millennium.
