Jer 4:23-26 23 I beheld the earth, and, lo, it was without form, and void; and the heavens, and they had no light. 24 I beheld the mountains, and, lo, they trembled, and all the hills moved lightly. 25 I beheld, and, lo, there was no man, and all the birds of the heavens were fled. 26 I...

I'm well familiar with the book, John Bunyan, too, from childhood! I've also read other books of his. Yes, I agree, that a majority of people who profess to be Christians, really are not true Christians, though they make some effort to enter into the kingdom of heaven! I think that's...

Yes, as you say, those who think the millenium is referring to the idea that Jesus will spend that amount of time with His people, on earth. And that those who think that way, or overlooking or failing to correctly understand I Thessalonians 4:17. They also overlook or correctly understand...

You said: Furthermore, the word “heart” is connected to the word “midst”: Right! So sometimes, the word 'heart" in the Bible, just means 'in the midst."

Yes, the King James Bible doesn't use the Word, "Hades" at all. Though an online dictionary says "Hades" has a number of meanings. And that the Revised Version of the Bible uses it: Hades [ hey-deez ]SHOW IPA noun Classical Mythology. the underworld inhabited by departed souls. the god...

Your view is not clear to me though, but that's alright! It's common for Christians to sincerely disagree (much because of difficult symbolisms and terminonology used on the subject, in the Bible) on prophetic parts of the Bible. The important thing above all, is always, that one has...

I DON'T BELIEVE THE MILLENIUM WILL BE ON EARTH, BUT RATHER, UP IN HEAVEN Some Christians sincerely believe that Jesus will spend a millenium of years on earth together on earth. Though I respect their view, this is not how it looks to me in light of the scriptures on that subject, (I...

Some since Christians think they have the gift of speaking in tongues, just for their own benefit, as seems to have been the case with the apostle Paul. They don't expect all Christians to have that gift, and so do well in that way. I don't know if God still gives out that gift or not. But in...

Another thing I'll mention I've noticed - is that they seem more expressive than any other creatures - except for monkeys and various kinds in the ape family. And none seem to have such a big smile as dogs are able to do. Looks almost human, I'd say.

Yes, you have some good insights about dogs that I hadn't yet thought of! And it's interesting, when reflecting on the creation - that everything God made was good and for a good purpose. He made everything unique. Yes, I've heard that about cats too - that though they are common pets and...

Yes they are two different things, as you say! I just now looked in Wikipedia on the subject of astrology. It said, "Astrology is a pseudoscience that claims to divine information about human affairs and terrestrial events by studying the movements and relative positions of celestial...

As you say, and some people forget to think of - this wouldn't have happened if Jacob had been more attentive to following God's guidance in his life! He had to run away from home, due to his error of having lied to get his birthright. It's true he may still have chosen to marry a relative...

Yes, that parable illlustrated that people need to be ready for His return. How important it is to do that!

Yes, that's right! And as you know, Jesus paid the price He needed to pay to get us (and all who will have chosen to serve God throughout time)! Another term for that buying, in the Bible - is "redeeming" or "redemption."

One of the Christian star books I have, said that the star the wise men followed to find Jesus - was in the Virgo constellation - it was the one that represented baby Jesus. The star is called "Coma" - which means "baby."

Yes, it was originally a good thing! But as so often happens in this world - wicked people change good things into things that aren't good! I can think of lots of things through history that this is true of. For example, In Old Testament times, people were to worship God through doing...

Yes, I think the study of it can be marvelous, as you say, and as i have also found! I don't take anything to be as trustworthy as the Bible. But if one is careful to have that priority in study of any spiritually - related subjects from the past, I see no harm from studying them...

Jesus said both are necessary. John 3:5-7 5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. 6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. 7 Marvel not that...

I don't have a dog, but our family used to have one, that I enjoyed a lot! I'm too busy to have one now, that I'm an adult. I think there are spiritual insights one can gain by examining the traits of a dog. God created all creatures, including humans, of course. I see He made dogs to be...

I have 2 Christian books about the constellations, written by Christians in ancient times. Before I got the books, some years ago, I hadn't realized that the constellations had any spiritual meanings from God. But now I know - interesting to know! I won't mention them all as there are so...
