Re: Abraham's Bosom
A wonderful question.Here is the first thing you need to be cognisant of:This was only a parable 2)There is nowhere we are told that Abraham ascended into the heavens,but Enoch did and there is Biblical proof for that. 3)Hell does not exist in the now,but shall be in the day of final-get the word fi...

Re: resurrection
Well sister I DO KNOW HE WAS NOT CONFUSED,BUT HONESTLY SOME THINGS ,i THINK ARE FOR gOD ONLY AND OURS IS TO FOLLOW THAT WHICH HAS BEEN REVEALED BY SCRIPTURE AND IF WE FAIL TO FIND ANSWERS TO SOME OTHER THINGS-I PERCEIVE IT ONLY SHOWS THAT WE ARE FINITE BEINGS.

Re: Please Introduce Yourself Here
Am 24 now and grew up in a Christian home-never known my father since they divorced even before my birth.Have found a heavenly one anyway.Attended a Salvation Army boarding school where I would shed tears in imitation of what I saw others do,but after a study of the Scriptures found that I was lying...

Re: The true religion
Letter from the Roman Catholic Church We all like to receive mail. Here is a letter from the Roman Catholic Church, originally published in America in 1869. The message was written to Protestants and is forceful and to the point, with lots of Scriptural proofs for its position. I am going to propose...

Re: The true religion
So interesting,but what would you make of Luke 4v 16? 15And he taught in their synagogues, being glorified of all. 16And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and stood up for to read. 1 John 2 v6:He that saith he ab...

Re: The thousand year reign
Christ comes and takes His people to heaven and those that did not believe in Him are dead as this happens.The holy ones open and review the records of the world for a thousand years and then descend with the New Jerusalem.While they hold the judgment Satan is in total darkness here on earth and wan...

Re: Next Pope: the Devil
The disciple Peter was not the first pope,that is the hijack by the Catholic church to deceive.

Re: Modest Dress and Headcoverings: Male Response?
Yea,Jen,I mean on the other side of earth,but the practice is done under here.If one isn't interested in proper dressing under here they wouldn't be happy putting on the holy robes of victory(which of course wouldn't be revealing,anyway)

Re: marijuana/prostitution
Whether or not marijuana has less effects in relation to crime does not matter as it still is dangerous to the smoker.This becomes sin to Gopd who created the body and has declared it the His temple-many of us have turned these bodies into dens of robbers or brothels..whatever,but marijuana or alcoh...

Re: Modest Dress and Headcoverings: Male Response?
One writer says of fashion:' Fashion taxes without reason and collects without mercy'. Women as well as men have great accountability for the way they dress and behave as no action has no bearing on the life of another-even the smallest action.Bathsheba was very right to bath,but her small act of wa...

Re: Is love only a bi-product of salvation?
John 14 v15: If ye love me, keep my commandments . 1 James 2 v6: He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked. The commandments can be summarized by only two-supreme love for God(Commandment number 1-4) and equal love for fellow man(Commandment number 5-10). We lo...

Re: The Trinity, tradition or scripture?
All things are from God the Father,through Jesus Christ by the Holy Spirit.The Trinity is not found in Scripture as a whole picture as some of us would want to have.There are things that are not directly taught in the Bible ,but are required and holy still before God.Example:That it is unlawful to b...

Re: Christians Please Answer
To think that someone is bludgeoning their religion on you is sometimes an indication that theirs is stronger than yours,but by trying to runaway from it you make yourself guilty and more accountable. Nomatter what one writes or has ever been written I have never felt my religion threatened or force...

Re: About what Jesus said to the thief on the cross
Punctuation really matters guys and in this case it has to be brought up if the Bible is to be harmonised and remain in unity.Look at this:A woman without her man is nothing. Someone can punctuate it as follows :A woman ,without her man is nothing. Or:A woman:Without her, man is nothing or..... If t...

Re: resurrection
I perceive the three days and nights phrase to be meaning a small period of time,not necessarily the 24hr recognising of days.Remember He once said He would destroy and build the temple in three days?Now that was not,as I perceive,a literal 3 days but a short period of time,with the word temple mean...
