Your conclusions come from an American reality only. Try to apply these standards to believers in Communist China, North Korea, etc. and their validity quickly falls apart. This is referring to the government of God. Most cannot see it because of Rome's insistence upon "the divine right of...

The only Christian society I see in the scripture is in the New Jerusalem. Within that country there is no religious freedom. Like many church people, you are conflating Americanism with the government of God. This is part of the "great delusion". In full disclosure, I've dissuaded few from...

Without exception, whenever a state or country adopts theocratic governance, that state or country becomes bankrupt: morally and economically. "And the ten horns which you saw on the beast, these will hate the harlot, make her desolate and naked, eat her flesh and burn her with fire. 17 For...

There were only 12 Apostles of the Lamb. Together, they were a irrefutable witness of the baptism, ministry, death, and ascension of Jesus Christ. “Therefore, of these men who have accompanied us all the time that the Lord Jesus went in and out among us, 22 beginning from the baptism of John...

What you saw was a summation of Revelation 6 and some of the coming perils on the earth. In your dream you saw elements of the 4 horsemen of the apocalypse. White horse = Global subjugation = Crown and declaration of conquering Pale horse = Death & Hell = skeleton Red horse = Murder Strife =...

The first tithe was given to a priest in the order of Melchizedek. The second was given by a man to his father who represented his lineage of faith. Are those around today? Priests of Melchizedek and fathers of faith?

In fairness, that's not what He said. He said "No one knows..." Present tense. Like "No one currently knows". “But concerning that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father only." Notice He said not man > the angels > the Son... only the Father...

The “beginning” in Genesis 1 is when God began to reveal Himself in time and space and when He put everything in order for His Beloved. Because It follows that the devil was present in the garden with Adam and Eve, he would have fallen from this beginning. The family or house of God the Father...

I've seen his debates with muslims. I like him.

No. The offer to “believe on the Lord Jesus Christ” was offered to the jailor and his household. This is the scripture in context. Notice how the word of the Lord was spoken to the jailor and his household and then he and his family believed: 31 So they said, “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ...

The US is a consumer-driven economy and, therefore, a consumer-driven culture. "Having things" is often equated with success. This is why, in one of the president's first addresses to the nation after the World Trade Center attack, he encouraged people to "go shopping" It's the type of...

Yes. After all, it's the "traditions of men" that prevent the word of God from affecting people.

The last part is this: "So then those who are of faith are blessed with believing Abraham." This is how we, who believe in Christ, become "sons of Abraham": we inherit the blessings that were given to Abraham by faith. The scriptures testify to this: "And if you are Christ's, then you are...

“For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin.”

If the scriptures were not spiritual then the de facto church leadership would be comprised of Greek, Hebrew and English Professors.

This was a collection as a gift for the saints in Jerusalem, not a tithe.

I corncur.

Or, more appropriately stated, “The feasts are special to me, so I enjoy celebrating them.” ”One person esteems one day above another; another esteems every day alike. Let each be fully convinced in his own mind. He who observes the day, observes it to the Lord; and he who does not observe...

I was about to write the same thing. :LOL:

The operative, spiritual judgment of Adam and Eve was that they were “one flesh”. This superseded the physical evidence that they were two separate people. Because of this, that God saw them as “one flesh”, had Adam not eaten the fruit he would have redeemed Eve by his faithfulness to God. God...
