    Have you read any religious texts other than the Bible?

    I have read a number of them. Apart from the Koran they are all Pre Christian writings and share a strong Moral element that can guide an individual through life. However the complete truth can only be found in the Bible. I believe that they were and are Gods way of reaching out to those...

    Strictly Over 50s Thread

    Yes!! Boris and the Conservatives won a majority of 80 seats. The Labour opposition won the lowest number of seats (202) since 1935. A trade deal with the US will probably be negotiated in the new year Jeremy Corbyn the opposition leader has stated he will resign in the New Year.

    Strictly Over 50s Thread

    I'm really surprised that you have never heard of either of them. Do you live in a cave? Even Donald Trump knows Boris Johnson. In the UK we have blow by blow accounts of US politics. I confess I am not familiar with every Senate representative I get the main picture. Jerome Corbyn is...

    Is Prince Andrew in Hell right now?

    From what I know about Edward VIII he had an enviable life in his so called exile consisting of one long round of parties with Wallace and visits from famous personalities of the day.

    Opinions wanted - is it possible the Nagasaki/Heroshomi bomb was foretold in the bible.

    The Bible deals with our sinful condition and Gods remedy for it. It promises reward for righteous behaviour and warns of judgement of living and dying in a sinful condition separated from God. Its promises and judgements apply to every generation past present and future. So picking out...

    Luke 17 - Where are they taken?

    This is the explanation based on scripture known to Christs disciples rather than isolated interpretations based on 2000 years of hindsight. The passage where Jesus mentions this follows his description of the days of Noah so its in that context we need to understand it. It was said before the...

    One being God

    I see it this way. God is a family. Most people belong to a family. If you see a Father Mother and their child walking along you naturally recognise a family composed of individuals with separate human identities and roles within that family. On the other hand if you see the member on...

    the Kurds

    I'm far from being an expert on Islamic matters but I understood that the enmity between the two major sects was about which of Mohammed's descendant/ follower was chosen as leader after his death. There may have been a pig involved somewhere but on the other hand someone may be telling porkies.

    Paper Money and Fiat Currency is the Mark of the Beast

    The reference does relate to Solomon but all the rest is speculation. Revelation contains types and symbols from the OT because the Bible is Gods message to humanity throughout the ages about our sinful condition and Gods plan to bring us back in fellowship with him. Its message is spiritual...
