Thanks for mentioning the good news. I see the entire Bible as being the good news. The spirit emphasizes various aspects of the good news, but these are not separate good newses or separate gospels. Anyway, it is good to point out the various aspects of the gospels as you have, showing various...

Thanks Dreamdweller for your question. There are some misconceptions in popular views on this subject. Giants refers to humans, not creatures that were part of what people incorrectly presume angels to be and part human. We read in Genesis 6:4 about the sons of God coming in to the daughters of...

The significance of the number seven is seen in the sabbath, which is the seventh day. "But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work..." This is a picture of how God does all the work of saving his own, while we cannot do any work to save ourselves...

Thanks MerSee for your question. ""Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?" God gives people the ability to believe in Jesus. Before...

Thanks for asking. "For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in. " This verse tells us that part of Israel will be blind all the way...

Thanks for sharing. However, the Bible does not mention a bunch of cultural Jews suddenly converting after the time of the Gentiles. In fact, Romans 11 tells us that the fullness of the Gentiles comes in, and that is it. Nothing mentioned after that. "For I would not, brethren, that ye should...

Thanks for your question. Rev 18 calls Babylon that great city. This is the title of the holy Jerusalem as well in Rev 21. Some persons have probably already noticed this. But did you also know it is the title of Ninevah. The reason people have trouble with chapters like Rev 18 is that they...

Thanks for your question. Romans 11 says that a part of the cultural Jews will be saved and a part of the Gentiles will be saved. All those who are saved are called spiritual Israel, both Jews and Gentiles. That is why Romans 11 says "And so all Israel shall be saved ". 'All Israel' here means...

Thanks for your question. The way to be baptized is simply to believe in Jesus unto salvation. God gives people the ability to believe the good news. 'Baptize' is a word that simply means to be washed. While physical water cannot wash a person free from the stain of sin, God word can. When you...

A tongue is simply a language. For example, Spanish is a tongue, English is a tongue and so forth. The Bible speaks about how people who are born again to believe in Christ, speak with new tongues. This does not mean that they babel in a different language, or even in some language other than...

Thanks montana123 for your discourse in which you make many good points. It looks like we differ slightly in how you view the 2 witnesses of Revelation 11. You write that God is sending 2 witnesses in the future. I view the 2 witnesses as a picture of the witnessing true believers give...

Thanks Needevidence for your question about these verses: "And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob: For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins. " KJV The word 'so' in...

The nice thing about being in the Lord is the access directly to the Father, no matter where you are or how accurate or how wrong a person (including ones' self) or a group may be. I find absolutely immense comfort in the fact that in this present world of people and confusion there is a God who...

Thanks GaryA, for your concern. I would imagine that we approach scripture differently. Correct me if I'm wrong about you, but I would imagine that you are looking at the surface text only, and not expecting it to need interpretation beyond a concordance definition of surface words, certainly...

The Bible seems to say in Col 1:18 that Jesus is the beginning: "And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence. " That, to me, seems to answer the question you ask about what the beginning really...

Thanks Jedothek for your mention of terms in the Genesis 9 promise. We read: "And with every living creature that is with you, of the fowl, of the cattle, and of every beast of the earth with you; from all that go out of the ark, to every beast of the earth. And I will establish my covenant...

God has one forgiveness for all those who believe in him.

Thank you JacobMartinMertens for your question about: "And it shall come to pass, that every one that is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall even go up from year to year to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, and to keep the feast of tabernacles...And if the family of...

Thanks JohnB for posting this scripture about how wonderful the coming ages will be for believers due to God's kindness.

That's great JaumeJ. Praise God!
