I am not familiar enough with Ezekiel 37 to see the point you are making.

Did you know that your kind is nothing new to those who have doing this for a while? Your only effective moments will be with baby Christians.

You find yourself now hating Israel because you are unaware of what the Bible teaches concerning Israel. You are falling for Satan's propaganda machine. The "world" does hate Israel. That is true! Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, love for the Father...

This is addressed to the 'anti-works' crowd. Works was a religious, manmade system. In Jesus' day? Legalistic, highly religious men would prescribe for people a list of works that must be done to win the approval of God onto salvation. That is what the term "works" meant. Some would say...

Paul was using the terms of the gnostics to show them the correct application in God's system. You don't understand that.

OK..... :giggle:

Right! As someone here in error lays claim to... " Jesus is to teach us all directly by the Holy Spirit." That opens one to demonic counterfeits with no checks and balances. But if it were true? That all we need is ourselves and the Holy Spirit? Why send men to teach? Therefore go and...

Thank you...

Two excellent points you made. One I would like to repeat and amplify.... God gives the faith. But how does He give us our faith? So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. Romans 10:17 Faith is actually knowledge of the Word of God that one believes.

That is not saying that when we sin, only our flesh is sinning. Nor that our soul was not involved with what the flesh initially desired to do. A little knowledge can be used to try to impress others. But it does just the opposite when that knowledge is misapplied and stumbled over.

Curious.... Where does it actually say the words that the 144,000 are firstfruits?

Being wrong doesn't matter to him. What matters to him is that he says things that he thinks will bug you.

Without realizing it... Calvinism might have been an attempt to supply fallen angels with an excuse that they did not choose to follow Satan nor to reject God. That God rejected them first. There would be no justice if the condemned had no choice in what they decided for.

That was what I was referring to.

To keep his newly gathered chosen people (the Jews) separated from the then-degenerated peoples of the world? God needed to promote a way of thinking in the Jewish mind to cause Jews to think with disdain towards gentiles. That is why God gave the Jews the Law as He had given it. It was to be...

Do you practice missing the point? Or does it come naturally to you? What the gnostics claim had nothing to do with what was being said.

"Gentile" (goy) was a term used to describe a person from one of the nations outside of Israel. As seen in Zechariah 8:23, which is describing what will take place during the Millennium. This is what the LORD Almighty says: “In those days ten people from all languages and nations will take...

Actually... The Holy Spirit is not a bridge between us and God. For the Holy Spirit is God. That bridge you speak of? That is our human spirit, which the Holy Spirit begat in us when we believed and became regenerate. Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit...

All that you showed me, and that I understood? Came to my understanding courtesy of the Holy Spirit. We have no need for any man to teach us what to think. Even about what we are being taught by a man. The Spirit will teach us what to think about all things needing to be understood.

Actually ... Sarai was renamed Sarah because "Sarai" meant a contentious woman. After she matured? The Lord renamed her Sarah, meaning princess. ......
