    Are some more blessed than others in heaven?

    Truth be told, our rewards will not be received until the time of the second coming of Christ. Until then, they are reserved for us in heaven (1 Peter 1:4), but we will receive them when Christ returns to this earth. Matthew 16:27 "For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with...

    Funny English phrases

    I am a bit hesitant to share this because George Carlin's humor was borderline, at best, and even while on national TV. With the exception of his "riot act" comment, his other examples are clean. He does address some everyday expressions which do not make much sense, so, if you are not easily...

    Mid Acts

    I do not know that we can rightly say that any of the saints who were in Rome prior to Paul's arrival there were directly converted by Paul, but he may have had some indirect influence upon them. Please consider the following: Acts 18:1-4 "After these things Paul departed from Athens, and...

    Mid Acts

    Nobody could point to such a passage because no such passage exists. Let me quickly show you how the "unlearned and unstable wrest" the words of Paul in his epistles, "as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction" (2 Peter 3:16). They deliberately cherry-pick a few isolated...

    Talking with Jesus

    By extension, he also disparaged Jesus who called Paul, James, John, and Peter who gave Paul the right hand of fellowship, and Luke who was Paul's traveling companion. There goes almost the entire New Testament down the drain. This guy should have been shown the door a long time ago.

    Romantic

    I grew up in a home where music was almost always playing, and most of it was love-related. That is definitely a big part of why I am currently a tender-hearted pile of mush living inside of a rough exterior.

    :cry: I was hoping for your critique on the song in that you seem to be a bit of a music aficionado from what I have seen in some of your posts. Well, speaking of work, it is time for me to go and make bricks for Pharaoh...

    The Bible, Eschatology, and Rightly Dividing the Word of God.

    Hey, Ted. I do not believe that what Peter said was intended to be metaphoric. Here is what he said: 2 Peter 3:8 "But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. " For starters, Peter was here alluding to...

    Introduction

    Welcome to the forums, Gavin. I am sorry for my initial response here. I honestly did not mean anything bad by it, and I feel bad for posting it. Sometimes, my fingers seem to work faster than my brain. I apologize, again, for that. I hope that your time spent here is blessed of the Lord.
