Has anyone found secret messages in the bible?

[Magenta]

I said, I quote: “Nobody wants to be under the true authority of God’s Word.” Notice that even in the context I did not specifically address Dino by name. I was speaking more in general terms. If the shoe fit, then by all means. But if you were to go back and look at my post, I never said, “Dino, or you,” etcetera. I also do not like to partake in childish insults of which I have seen in this thread so far. So I was not engaging in any personal or hurtful childish attacks like one would see in highschool. Telling the truth in correction is not the same as that by a long shot.

But nobody would include you, which you overlook to excuse having said it in the first place.

If it was said to correct Dino as you now imply then it was certainly specifically aimed at hm.

But when he pointed out that nobody would include you, suddenly it is an insult and you criticize him some more.

It shows a double standard. Some might readily recognize it as hypocrisy.

On the contrary, the article you posted only addresses a few of the points I made and it's mostly assumptions on your part. Nowhere did I claim that Peter was the rock upon which the church was built, and nowhere did I claim that he was infallible. I gave you specific examples of proof, and you just sent me a generic article (I bet you didn't even read it). I can also send you some generic article made by Catholics. So, instead of spamming each other, why don't you specify which one of my points you disagree with and provide proof using verses. You don't get to dismiss information you disagree with just by saying "it doesn't prove anything" when in fact it actually does.

The points in Scripture you showed are just assumptions. They can be equally be read as Peter not being a pope. In fact, Peter wouldn’t be a pope because Peter was rebuked by the apostle Paul. Peter was called a fellow elder. In Acts 15, after Peter speaks, you would think that his words would be final on the matter because he is a pope. But others speak with authority like Paul, and Barnabas. There is no proof he was a pope or head leader by any stretch of the means. When Cornelius met Peter, he worshiped (bowed down) to him, and Peter told him to get up because he was just a man. People uplift the pope today as if he was some kind of god-like figure where people kiss his hand. So you are ignoring Scripture to make Peter something that he was not.

Here is another article that may be more helpful (hopefully):

Catholics are not pagan,

Uh, yes they are.

You can see the same pagan fish hats the RCC wears in old ancient tablets of pagan worshipers. You can see the sun worship symbols which also is a pagan worship practice. The worship of mother and son (together) is seen in other pagan cultures in history.

they are just confused... just like you with your disregard for God's 10 commandments.

I remember once where a guy during a Christian Bible study just screamed out of the blue, “We have to keep the 10 commandments!” While I care for his soul, I couldn’t help but roll my eyes at his ignorance of Scripture not to mention his ill favored Christian behavior.

First, there were 613 laws of Moses and not just 10. So referring to only 10 is pure ignorance.
While mentioned in the OT, the greatest commands are to love God and love others as we later find out by Jesus at the sermon on the Mount. Yes, loving your neighbor is a part of keeping the moral laws like do not murder, covet, steal, etcetera (Romans 13:8-10). But nowhere is loving God with all your heart, mind, soul, and strength mentioned in the 10. That is why they are not the sole commands. You had to also be circumcised in the OT or according to Genesis 17:14, otherwise, you would be cut off from God’s people. But if you know the New Testament, Paul says that if you seek to be circumcised, Christ will profit you nothing (Galatians 5:2). So things are different.

Second, nowhere in the New Covenant are there any Sabbath commands repeated.
Nowhere are there any sins listed as Sabbath day breaking sins listed among the other sins like murder, coveting, theft, etcetera.
Colossians 2 makes it clear that we are not to let anyone judge us according to Sabbaths, and holy days (See: Colossians 2:14-17).
Paul says he is afraid for the Gentiles in that they keep days, months, and years (Galatians 4:10-11).
Acts 15 makes it clear that Gentiles do not have to keep the Laws of Moses. Just read Acts 15:1, Acts 15:5, and Acts 15:24.
No stop right now and those verses really slowly in the KJV. Hebrews 7:12 says the law has changed. Acts 13:39 says you cannot be justified by the Laws of Moses. Romans 6:15 says we are not under the Law (i.e., the Old Law).

Only those who deliberately keep rebelling against God end up in hell.

Right, like the Catholic Church because they are rebelling against God by their idolatry, and praying to dead people as if they were God.
Only God can receive prayer and not dead people.

I agree many people lie to themselves and others when they call themselves Christians, but those who are truthful will be saved.

Not according to Mathew 7:14, and Luke 13:24.

"10According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon. 11For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ. 12Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble; 13Every man's work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man's work of what sort it is. 14If any man's work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward. 15If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire."

If you read past verse 10, the work is symbolized in gold, silver, etc, not people, but works done by the people. Not just saving others, but ALL works. It's for the rewards of the people who build on the foundation of Christ. Everyone builds their own work on the foundation of either Christ or the world. Those who build on Christ will have their works tested by fire, but will escape alive no matter what, while those who don't build on the foundation of Christ will be condemned.

Again, the foundation a person builds upon is Jesus Christ, but a believer’s work in this context are the people you bring to the faith. If your work is burned (i.e., the people) because they justify sins like strife and envy, they will not inherit the Kingdom of God. If you defile the temple by sin, God will destroy that temple in the Lake of Fire.

 

[Bible_Highlighter]

Meant to say “Galatians” and not “Gentiles” in second major paragraph of my last post. Meaning, Paul says he is afraid for the Galatians in that they keep days, months, and years (Galatians 4:10-11).

 

[Bible_Highlighter]

I see you share your fellow KJV-only proponent’s penchant for stupid and insulting questions.

Well, I am not KJV Only. I am Core KJB. This means that while the King James Bible is my core foundational text that I trust alone because I believe it is perfect and error free, that does not mean I do not use Modern Translations to benefit my understanding of the King James Bible due to the 1600s English (which is archaic). In fact, I feel they are a must just as using a dictionary is a must. But just because I may use a dictionary, does not mean that dictionaries are infallible. The same is true with Modern Bibles. Modern Translations have many problems as I have demonstrated.

Also, while I care for NTNT58‘s soul, his beliefs are not typical of your standard King James Bible believer. Most King James Bible believers who believe that such a Bible is the pure Word of God are Protestant and they are against the Catholic Church strongly. NTNT58 believes the Catholic Church is the true church, which is a very serious misguided assesment. All we can do is pray for him in that he may see those Scripture verses that show that the RCC is not the one true church.

 

[Bible_Highlighter]

More arrogant folly. This site does not permit me to put in print what I think of your attitude.

So then why did you ask for me to basically back up my claims in regards to the false doctrines I mentioned?
If you were aware of them, I would not have to mention them.

 

[Bible_Highlighter]

I don't think you're in position to be judging people, especially since you think you don't have to follow God's law (as you mentioned in your previous comment). By misinterpreting "not under the law" you are justifying sin yourself. Or do you actually believe you "can't sin" because your faith makes all your deeds "not a sin"? That is called antinomianism, and it's a horrible heresy. Everyone sins. Nobody knows where the line is between grieving the holy spirit vs blaspheming the holy spirit. One thing for certain is - you sin.

Uh, no, ”not under the Law“ in Romans 6:15 is in reference to the Old sets of Laws in the Old Covenant (i.e., the 613 Laws of Moses).
I believe we are under the New Testament (New Covenant) Laws.
I believe the Bible teaches two aspects of salvation.

Aspect Salvation #1. We are first saved by God’s grace through faith without works in our Initial Salvation (Ephesians 2:8-9) (Romans 4:3-5) (Romans 11:6) (Titus 3:5).

Aspect Salvation #2. God has chosen us to salvation through the Sanctification of the Spirit and a belief of the truth (2 Thessalonians 2:13) (See also Romans 8:13, Galatians 6:8-9). This is living holy by the power of the Spirit to overcome sin in this life and it includes keeping the New Testament commands that come from Jesus and His followers. This Sanctification also includes works of faith.

Grace is still how we are ultimately saved because if a believer stumbles into sin on rare occasion, they confess of their sins directly to Jesus and not to a priest. Granted, believers must seek to cleanse themselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit perfecting holiness in the fear of God (See: 2 Corinthians 7:1).

 

[Bible_Highlighter]

I'm not familiar with the term Ecumenism,

We do live in the internet age where we can search such things, my friend.

but why do you support division among the churches?

Also - Romans 13:2

In your worldview, you see anyone believing in Christ to be a Christian. But if you were to read Matthew 7:22-23, and Matthew 13:41-42, there were Christians who didn’t make it into God’s Kingdom. The reason is that they justified sin or iniquity.

So division amongst those who are false brethren is not division. Division would be creating man made rules of division amongst true faithful followers. Seeing we are living in the last days and there are FEW who are in seeking to serve God according to the Bible, this is not really an issue so much (Like it was in the early church).

 

[Bible_Highlighter]

Jesus condemned Pharisees to hell, meaning they weren't worshipping God rightly either...

And they were cut off because they rejected their Messiah. We Gentile believers are told to continue in his goodness otherwise we will be cut off like the Jews, too. Cut off means one will not be saved. See Romans 11:22.

 

[Niki7]

You are conflating numerology with prophecy. Numerology is belief in a divine relationship between a number and an event. Prophecy is simply a message of warning.

I'll just respond to this one post and you can do whatever.

Numbers in the Bible can often be taken literally, but they are sometimes used as symbols. Many scholars have used numerology to see patterns and codes in the Bible. You yourself may be able to find lots of verses with numbers in them. Numerology attempts to explain the meaning of these numbers to see what God may be telling us by using them. However, nowhere are we taught to look for systems of numbers in the scripture much less told what those numbers signify. The Bible is supposed to be authoritative. Yet, when we start looking for numerical patterns, the best anyone is doing is guessing.

The truth is numerologists can find whatever they want in the Bible. The Bible is a huge book, and once someone begins adding up and dividing numbers they are bound to find some types of patterns. This would happen with any long book – like a dictionary or encyclopedia. If you look hard enough or manipulate the numbers well, patterns can be constructed anywhere. At this point it really transforms form being a student of the Bible to being a conspiracy theorist. source

As for prophecy, that is biblical prophecy, ie God's Spirit upon a human being anointed by Him to speak on His behalf (cause people are generally devoid of the desire to correct their course until some kind of emergency or life becomes too painful) it is both forthtelling and foretelling. Prophecy is not just a message of warning. The birth of Jesus was foretold long before the event and as the angels indicated when He was born, it was a loving, merciful God who sent Him for the salvation of all who would turn to Him.

You really are a person who has to touch the hot stove when you have been warned, as you have been long before you came here and I suspect, apart from repentance, you will continue on your course which leads to destruction. Even as you think you warn others, you are warned yourself but choose to ignore it. So, why should anyone listen to you? Yes, God always wins in the end.

please note: I am not going to waste my time and respond to whatever dire warning or numbers you throw at me. You have simply had repeated what others already told you.

Thank you for your respectful response.

I agree with you on the RCC, though we disagree on the KJV. I don't consider the KJV to be free from errors, but it's generally a good translation overall and excellent for its time considering the limited source material. Generally, I find a variety of translations is better for understanding the meaning of the text.

 

[Dino246]

So then why did you ask for me to basically back up my claims in regards to the false doctrines I mentioned?
If you were aware of them, I would not have to mention them.

I ask for you to back up your claims so that everyone may consider whether the claims are valid. Lots of people, here and elsewhere, make great claims about this or that, but have little to no actual evidence for those claims. By requiring evidence, we limit both the assertion and the influence of baseless and erroneous claims.

 

[Bible_Highlighter]

It shows a double standard. Some might readily recognize it as hypocrisy.

Surely you understand the difference between a person making personal attacks with personal insults vs. speaking to others in a general sense for a person’s correction by God’s Word For example: A pastor may know that Ricky is strongly caught up in a sin and he may even make a sermon for him so that he may repent, but the pastor is not going to call out Ricky in the audience to repent towards him by name. The message goes out to all and it is not so personal towards just Ricky alone. The message is to all. It is about the attack on the wrong action or belief in a general sense. If the shoe fits, then of course they can wear it. I am also not using highly insulting words like name calling done in highschool to hurt the person’s character, either. There is no correction or edification in this to obey God’s Word.

For example:

Dino246 said to me personally, I quote:

“An all-inclusive "Nobody" obviously includes you.“​

~ Quote by Dino246.​

Source:
Post #961.

So he is calling me a nobody. This is an insult and a personal attack, and not a correction to obey God’s Word. It is simply an attack upon my character. Nowhere did I do this.

Dino246 said to me personally, I quote:

“Don't be so arrogant…”​

~ Quote by Dino246.​

He is claiming I am arrogant.
This was of course is not being nice, but is also an unfounded accusation.

Post #998

The full quote of Dino246 said,

"Don't be so arrogant to think that you are "enlightening" me about anything.”​

This accusation is simply not true.

This was in context to my previous statement that said this:

"Yet, Modern Bibles actually remove certain words of Jesus and they make Him to appear to sin, too. Modern Bibles make Jesus out to be like a created demi-god, or with Him having faith like a man, or with Him having no power of His own during His earthly ministry. Modern Bibles teach abortion, and remove fornication and or water it down. Surely it is not a coincidence that in these last days, Christians today think fornication is okay with God. It’s because they have a Bible neutered like a cat. Granted, I do find Modern Bibles useful in updating the archaic language in the KJB. I also believe a person can be saved by a Modern Translation, but they cannot be our final word of authority because they say different things and they teach false doctrines.” ~ Quote by: Bible Highlighter.​

And with Dino246’s reply saying this:

“Great claims require great evidence. So far, you haven't provided any. Don't bother with your claims if you aren't going to back them up, because they are just empty slander.” ~ Quote by: Dino246.​

​

Post #975.

In short, he was asking me to back up my claims, and I did so with Scripture later in my post #994.

In other words, this implies strongly he has no idea to what I am referring to.

Dino246 also said to me personally,

“Overall, it looks like you're another product of narrow-minded fearmongering preachers who spout the same tired accusations and never honestly consider any evidence that challenges their narrative. You aren't the first around here, and you probably won't be the last.” Quote by Dino246.​

This again is an attack upon me personally. They are personal insults. This is not spoken to a general audience (where if the shoe fits, where it). This is not about correction to obey God’s Word with Scripture used. He is addressing me specifically and insulting me. I don’t believe this is Christian behavior. But we can agree to disagree of course.

May God bless you.

On the contrary, Revelation 13:18 tells us to count a particular number and it lets us know that it has an ascribed meaning attached to it. All Scripture is given by inspiration of God and is profitable for doctrine, and instruction in righteousness. This would include the numbers in Scripture. Surely God telling the Israelites to march around Jericho 7 times did not mean anything. If also what you say is true, then there would be no patterns. There would be no ascribed repeated meaning behind certain numbers in the Bible. There would be nothing.

You used the word, "Nobody"; that word is a superlative, meaning it includes (or, in this case, excludes) everybody. So, when you claim, "Nobody wants to be under the authority of God's word" (or whatever you said), you are also saying that you, yourself, don't want to be under that authority. It wasn't a "personal attack" at all; just a mirror reflecting your own words back to you. Your misinterpretation has probably coloured every subsequent interaction with me.

Yes; it's perfectly legitimate to ask for evidence to back up claims. When you make a negative claim about someone without evidence, it's called slander. While making negative claims about a rather large set of Bible translations wouldn't meet the legal definition, it's still slanderous if you don't back up the claim.

For example, check out That Ye May Marvel - Bible Numbers.

http://72.219.6.125:81/TheSignificanceOfBibleNumbers.pdf

Look at numbers like the number 40. Jesus was tested in the wilderness for 40 days. The Israelites were tested for 40 days while Moses was getting the 10 commandments. Noah was tested on the Ark in the storm with the animals for 40 days. God rests on the 7th day. It is a completion or end of God’s work. Revelation ends with tons of the number 7 appearing everywhere. So these things you cannot remove from Scripture. There are tons of other meanings associated with other numbers in the Bible.

I would also recommend checking out Brandon Peterson’s Video on the number 7 here:

I don’t think you can watch that video and say it is just a product of random chance.

I don’t believe that’s right. All things will be revealed at the Judgment.
So if you are right, then God will reveal it. But I don’t believe you are, friend.
Scripture also tells us to avoid having any appearance of evil. So making what can look to be like personal insults (even when you say that they are not) would be having an appearance of evil. Then again, this verse in Scripture is altered in Modern bibles.
