    Why Moses and Elijah were at the transfiguration.

    Deut. 18:15-19 is referring to Jesus Christ according to Acts of the apostles - “And now, friends, I know that you acted in ignorance, as did also your rulers. In this way God fulfilled what he had foretold through all the prophets, that his Messiah would suffer. Repent therefore, and turn to...

    KJV Translators to the Readers

    I do not seek credible scholarship on such matters as figuring out the original Greek text in online forums. I prefer to seek true scholarship. There is an excellent article about this matter one can read by an educated man: http://www.bible-researcher.com/kutilek1.html

    Why Moses and Elijah were at the transfiguration.

    Aren't you practicing eisegesis here rather than exegesis? Where in scripture did you find the statements you have written here in your OP and how did you make the connection? "I have applied all this to myself and Apol′los for your benefit, brethren, that you may learn by us not to go...

    KJV Translators to the Readers

    Fred, I did not mean to bicker with the OP, but it took me years before I learned about some of these things and wished to share it. There is something about the apocrypha I believe you will appreciate. The e-sword has the KJV with apocrypha available for free download. The apocrypha can give...

    3 Statements...Just True or False

    You are correct as I understand God's word: 1, 2 & 3 are correct.... all TRUE I see no way to biblically deny those three points.

    KJV Translators to the Readers

    Most of the KJV only people I know are not even aware the full Translators to the Readers Preface exists because few KJV Bibles today include it. True, it is not Holy Spirit inspired scripture, but it shows the modest mindset of the KJV translators. In no way would they say their translation...

    KJV Translators to the Readers

    Most KJV Bibles today do not include the 19 page Translators to the Readers Preface to explain the translation to the readers. Below are some points from that section are important to remember, especially if you lean to the "KJV only" idea. "Zeal to promote the common good, whether it be by...

    Revival @ Asbury?

    You wrote: "Sodomy is another Biblical word for homosexuality." Sodomy is NOT a biblical word period! Trying to compare that to the theological teaching of "Trinity" does not match. I've never heard or read where anyone stated "Trinity is another Biblical word for...." "sodomy (n.) c...

    Alex Murdaugh found guilty.

    I have a couple questions on this. The uncle was the person picking up the pieces of his nephew's blown apart body... is that allowed? Does a medical examiner have control over that? Maybe I've watched too many crime movies but family members do not come into the crime scene to pick up...

    Only 4 Percent of Americans Hold a Biblical Worldview

    "The percentage of Americans who hold a biblical worldview fell to 4 percent during the pandemic, while the percentage of self-identified Christians and born-again Christians who hold such a worldview also plummeted, according to a new poll. The survey by researcher George Barna at the Cultural...

    Revival @ Asbury?

    You took off on a tangent instead of supporting what you claimed in your statement: "Sodomy is another Biblical word for homosexuality." You will not find that word in the Bible. You then used the trick of the Jehovah's Witnesses, lift a partial quote from the Encyclopedia Britannica when...

    Revival @ Asbury?

    Really?? Give me the English translation and the book, chapter & verse where you find the word "sodomy'. Show me a dictionary or thesaurus that show "homosexuality" and "sodomy" as synonyms. Also, explain why various translations cannot decide where to use the word "sodomite" as a...

    God gave us guidance on killer pit bulls and their owners!

    I am astonished at how so many can't see the difference between seeing a principle in the Old Covenant law as it can apply today in contrast to be being literal. When the OT condemns tattoos and cuttings of the body, are we not justified in watching the appearances and the messages it sends...

    Revival @ Asbury?

    In doing research on the cultural context of the 1st century, in trying to understand the difference between pre-marriage relationships then, and the idea of dating today; I came across an interesting article. So many were arranged marriages in that day, in comparison to romanticized dating...

    God gave us guidance on killer pit bulls and their owners!

    I had already corrected my error in typing, if you had read back. I commented how that my error was probably why so many on here lacked reading comprehension concerning my OP!

    God gave us guidance on killer pit bulls and their owners!

    Sorry folks, I really messed up with this one. I wrote "principals" when I meant "principles" and that really threw off everyone's reading comprehension. When I think "principles" in this situation I'm not thinking of a literal transfer of OT law as eye for eye, tooth for tooth, etc., to...

    God gave us guidance on killer pit bulls and their owners!

    I can understand the emotional women getting upset and misreading what I wrote, but come on men. I did NOT compare the example of the dogs to the thug! After my comment on man killing ox's and dogs, I wrote: "Thinking about our society and the principals contained in God's laws, how would God...

    Calvin did not invent the doctrines of grace

    You did not address the scriptures clearly stating that some are left, by God's decree, reprobation. You concluded: "All men are born with a choice. The call goes out to all. Equal opportunity. No 'master class'". Yes, all have a choice, but not a free will to make the right choice unless God...
