    Creation & age of the World

    Len's answer : - Thank you for your contribution. However in the ancient Greek (Bible Greek) the word used in Gen. 1:1 has been correctly translated as “created” but in Exod. 20:11 and 31:17 a different word was used and it has been apparently translated as “made” in all Bible versions. - As...

    Creation & age of the World

    As an ex Atheist I have a strong interest in the Genesis creation account, but it upsets me when I hear Christians arguing about whether the Earth is Millions of years old or was just created about BC. 4.000 to 5,500. - I have to ask, does it really matter? The Scriptures tell us quite clearly...

    Is sickness a blessing?

    There are many reasons for sickness and suffering, and sometimes indeed it can be a blessing. the blessing may not always be felt by the suffering one but others can be blessed by seeing a Christian sufferer still praising God in all circumstances. To study the Book of Job is a good start to...

    How does a Christian keep the Sabbath Holy?

    The Scriptures clearly teach that the Sabbath was to be a special sign between God & Israel forever. It is not for Christians. It is intended as a National Law. It can not be correctly kept world wide as when it is Saturday in Israel it is Friday or Sunday elsewhere. Jesus is a Jew and during...

    There never has been such a thing as a Christian nation and never will be. We can look forward though to Gods kingdom at the end of the Tribulation.

He has also said that He adopts the believer into his family. However, He has also given us a free will. He has also warned us of the consequences of turning...

    Christ kept the Law of Moses, so....

    The problem is that many people overlook the fact that Jesus was a Jew under the Mosaic Law and His ministry on Earth was solely to Jews. He stated that Himself. At his death He left a Will (Testament). That will is the Testament which writes Gods Laws on the heart of true believers. No longer...

    Genesis 1:1 What is your interpretation?

    Genesis 1:1,2 are God's record which shows that He is the creator of the Universe (indeed of all things). He does not tell us when it took place, simply "In the beginning". It is not important when it took place. It is important that we accept by faith that He did it. Verse 3 commences the...

    Re. Septuagint to English translations

    It appears a number of Christians are now interested in the recent translations of the Septuagint to English translations now available. I have recently looked at the Genesis genealogy account in one of them, the NETS and have found that there is an error which places the death of Methuselah as...
