    The Ten Commandments are the Covenant, did you know?

    The Law of Moses was "A" Covenant. Not the covenant prophesied by Jeremiah which is "not the covenant he made with Moses"

    God's View on Clumsiness?

    Now this is why I like CC. Believers sharing insight and interpretation of various texts that cry out for reconsideration beyond what has been popularity preached. If the word Moses used meant unskilled that supports the idea that he feared making a fool of himself or not being taken seriously...

    God's View on Clumsiness?

    I read various interpretations about Moses faltering speech and one commentary said he had not spoken the language of the Egyptian court for 40 years and was saying that he would be inept and awkward in his attempts (clumsy) in trying to speak to Pharaoh. I thought it was a much more probable...

    God's View on Clumsiness?

    Rather than be guilty of a clumsy attempt at an English grammar lesson I will instead refer to a dictionary search for the meaning of clumsiness. It's not the correct word to use for sinful carnality, or moral failure. That's why translators don't use that word when laziness is the correct word...

    God's View on Clumsiness?

    Well, by definition I would put laziness and carelessness in a different category. Laziness is more like a willful decision to not do what they know to do. Clumsiness is not defined as laziness, clumsiness is more about depth perception or shoes that one isn't used to walking in, or missing a...

    God's View on Clumsiness?

    We must be careful getting into a mindset that unintentional clumsiness is a sin. This can lead to a type of obsessive compulsive disorder where one is feeling a nagging drive to repent over "spilt milk" or being tormented by a condemnation that Satan will use to cripple one from use by God as...

    Loss of salvation???

    Charging the subject just for edification purposes of course but have you noticed that 1Cor 3:1-3 that you quote describes them as carnal when they strive between each other over whether Paul, Apollos, or Peter is the better teacher? It does not say drunkards are carnal Christians. Then when...

    Gift of Tongues

    Are you asking for medical documented proof that believers have laid hand on sick people and they were healed after this statement was made? I am assuming that you believe the scripture accounts in Acts? So are you asking for proof that it continued happening after that. I assume that you...

    Gift of Tongues

    Yes. When you baptized in the Holy Spirit you will speak in tongues. Then you can speak in tongues whenever you want. You do the speaking, it is your tongue, the Spirit gives the utterance. Do not think that you must be in some kind of "out of control" emotional state to speak in tongues...

    The rapture? The comimg of Christ.

    It sounds like you are thinking that the Great Tribulation is all about the antichrist. It is much more. There are many judgments from God and these are all how the "Threshing" of the field is carried out. The symbolism of an angel thrusting a threshing instrument into a field is not what the...

    The rapture? The comimg of Christ.

    That Wicked is only one of the judgments. The entire series is the Threshing, and the dispossesing of the earth of its unlawful inhabitants in anticipation of handing it to the saints. There are several threshings. They are all from the Lamb.

    The rapture? The comimg of Christ.

    I am not sure what you mean. It is not satan that brings judgment during the Great Tribulation but God himself or you could even say the Lamb. That satan and the antichrist is one of the things God uses to judge people is true but God gets all the glory for the threshing of the wicked not satan.

    The rapture? The comimg of Christ.

    If in explaining it he mentions angels threshing, and these angels threshing are mentioned in Rev as part of that time of the wrath being poured out (Great Tribulation) then there is every reason to think that this addresses that same time period.

    Septuagint

    Google that question. Apparantely there arevquite a lot of copies and manuscripts from the LXX. As to Matthew being originally written in Hebrew. Papias (125-150AD) mentioned it. However when he said it, the greek version was what was known and read by the church and no one but him ever knew...
