    Old Testament, in Jesus time?

    Anyone have any clue how many translations of the Old Testament existed then? Reading that the Old Testament was around over 1000 years prior, there had to be other translations. Look how many exist now. Besides Matthew 22:29, did Jesus ever speak of scripture? Thanks!

    storing up treasures in heaven?

    A treasure in heaven does not rust or wither away...... Anything that has that ability can be seen as having less value. A dog’s or, parents unconditional love, just as Our Father has for us is something that cannot be destroyed regardless of whatever mistakes, troubles or, failures come...

    Dreams

    Agree totally! I had one so powerful, I believe I will remember it till I leave this Earth. I believe, that writing down every single dream can only lead to more confusion......It is kind of like me having a journal of my dating life, in the attempt to figure women out (He He, not...

    Religion and Morality = Political Prosperity

    Not sure how other countries elect officials BUT, to echo your post. Trump may appear to be the top of the food chain but he isn’t, the Supreme Court has the most power. You and I know who the highest authority is. Call it IRONIC that technically the #2 (president) gets a personal...

    Special To Me

    I am like you, I topic search almost daily depending on what word comes about as I TRY and do the translation from: Emotion ——-> English I have yet to read the Bible in entirety..... I understand that even though I can read all of it, the timing for that specific scripture to be deeply felt...

    The third Temple?

    I watch some of those documentaries with caution.... Sometimes, the producer of them can inject too much personal opinion about how THEY interpret scripture, layered with images.... Who am I to say their understanding is wrong though? I just may disagree if I cannot the dots with scripture.

    Do you walk past a homeless person and how would a Good Samaritan act living in this age?

    What I would do is attempt to help in a roundabout manner. Say to them, hey brother or sister, I have $20 here but, for the $20, I want an exclusive. I want to hear their version of their life in its full truth...Why? I would want to try and see where they are in their faith life. Are they...

    What question would you have asked Jesus?

    You and I both know that you do want to know BUT, you also like to be surprised. You like crosswords and puzzles? What if the answers were all written in before you attempted them?

    What question would you have asked Jesus?

    Even though none of us lived in that time in history, we can imagine it. The things that matter, existed the same then, as they do now. Many asked Jesus questions but I wonder what some here would have asked him? More importantly, would he have answered?

    Sports in the Bible

    I believe the main ingredient in sports is, to determine a winner and loser by a written set of rules. I like leaning on the saying, it isn’t important whether you win or lose but, how you play the game is. I believe that accepting defeat in an honorable and respectful manner is essential to...

    3 sets of 10 commandments?

    I have to have a talk with my Sunday school teacher from childhood. I probably would have been kicked out of class for questioning their teaching methods. We were told to call the priests F*ather ........ A big no no, according to the Bible. I was raised Catholic but saw too many practices...

    Is a good conscience from the Holy Spirit?

    Tell me in words what is a GOOD conscience? Do you believe we have the authority to say what is good and what is bad?

    Is walking fearless what we all strive for?

    Living in today's world, there is plenty to make you pause and get scared. I do believe that if we are always worried about, what will happen if we take that leap of faith? For instance, you will never learn how to swim if you don't eventually be brave enough to get in the deep end. I can only...

    Walk In The Spirit

    Sometimes walking in the spirit can require you to, ignore what you hear others say and, possibly put on a thicker set of faith glasses as you get closer and closer to YOUR promise.

    Is Civil Disobedience ever Justified Biblically?

    “Obey civil authorities “ ? They are not saying what TO DO......They only set rules saying what I CANNOT do. Setting a million laws stating what not to do, will still always need your own thinking to arrive at making a move and actually DOING something.

    Signs in the heavens and on the earth?

    All these conspiracy theories are fine and dandy BUT, in order for them to have life to them, you must start with the basis that man’s choices will override God’s power......My bedrock will not allow that though. Satan knew he needed permission from God to do anything of harm, or at least give...

    Being double-minded?

    There are many verses talking about the subject but I wonder how others understand them and how they fit into their daily lives? I usually search topics when a certain inquiry comes to mind and found it very interesting how the Bible does not DIRECTLY deal with the topic of choices and...
