A different text than the one you started with. Yes, God can make a person do what He wants. I am in agreement with that. Your original verse did not support that but there are verses that do. We have Nebuchadnezzar as and example.

I did not call a person weird. I am saying that reading "that the reports will make them afraid" means they will be stripped of their free will is weird. It is weird as in not a normal way to read the sentence about "reports" as if this means nothing and does not come into play in their being...

Are you saying that you don't understand that the verse you are posting says because of the reports that they will hear about how God is fighting for them they will be terrified? What do you think the other nations in Canaan thought when they heard the details about how Jericho was defeated...

That is an odd way of thinking about it. They would be afraid because of the reports about the Israelites vanquishing their enemies. Not because of some arbitrary unexplained force of divine control over their wills.

Not everyone wants to hang out with work mates. Many just want to work and go home and are not interested in anything but that professional relationship. It is normal. Nothing wrong with you. Accept that. As far as church one should expect to find a real family who is interested in you and...

We should understand that statement in the context in which it is written. Stop trying to teach her husband and usurp authority over him. Maybe she is being deceived by this stuff she was trying to teach and her husband is there to help her. But she is resisting the help that God has...

1 tim 2:11A woman is to learn quietly with full submission.a 12I do not allow a woman to teach or to have authority over a man; instead, she is to remain quiet. 13For Adam was formed first, then Eve.a 14And Adam was not deceived, but the woman was deceived and transgressed.a Maybe there were...

To be honest, I don't even understand what you are talking about. I am going to disengage. I personally don't speculate about the details of the coming kingdom as I feel that Jesus taught us not to do that but to focus on being true disciples that will have a place at that table, because many...

No. You gave the vibe that there are these good people who get another chance. Your views are not orthodox wouldn't you agree?

For those who believe. There is no free gift of salvation for the unjust dead. Nor will there be when they are raised. But I don't want to argue with anyone about these things. Keep reading the bible and use good evangelical commentaries. Don't trust your own private interpretations. If no...

There is none good no not one.

Sorry, I did not mean to offend you. My comments were meant to be humor. I really don't understand your question. The unjust dead are the wicked dead. They currently are in hell. At the judgment they are raised, judged and cast into the Lake of Fire.

I don't believe he intended for us to understand him as promoting some kind of spiritual physics. Keep it simple. Adam and Eve failed the test. Jesus passed the test and so Jesus made the way for us to follow Him in obedience. Death came by Adam but we all sin our own sins. We have all...

That's just weird. So these people who are wicked get a reprieve from hell to live in the kingdom of God for 1000 years? I don't think so. Those who are found worthy to enter into the kingdom are not going to be tasked with herding zombies. Come on man!!!

I haven't spent a lot of time with this yet, but my guess is that it has something to do with prophesies in Daniel. I think the whole passage is talking about revelations he had previously taught them from the book of Daniel. And most likely this great rebellion is linked to the revelation...

Why do almost all of the English translations, even those that were produced by large committees of expert Greek Scholars who translated from the manuscripts (and not from previous translations) translate it as rebellion or apostacy? That is the Elephant in the room. Call me a skeptic but I...

LOL. I was just thinking about the meals today. I was thinking to myself... "Self, isn't it good to not have to heed the call "Dinner time" and have to stop reading your commentary on Acts, get up and go eat a meal while it's hot, when you are not even hungry, lest you risk hurting...

I looked this up years ago. I got the impression that this was all debunked as soon as it came out the first time by the original authors and since that time it just keeps circulating by people who have not fact checked. I remember seeing information about the original authors and then a few...

Boots are functional. They protect you from snake bites and all kinds of stickers and thorns. The Stetson keeps the sun off an and a felt hat is more useful than straw so forget the straw type hats get a felt, beaver if you can find one. And the duster keeps the dust off you. One that has...

They don't last. Neither do the crocodiles.
