    Revelation: Vision 1. The Unveiling of Jesus Christ.

    Jezebel, Doctrine of Balaam, Nicolaitans, at the root all were teaching the same false doctrine and getting people to sin with fleshly vices and tell themselves God would look over it. Hardly anything is known about the Nicolaitans. What is written about them 300 years later is made up from...

    Are we in the end times ?

    When he said ....Dear children, this is the last hour; and as you have heard that the antichrist is coming ... it is because they had heard the teaching of that Wicked that would be revealed, the son of perdition, the abomination of desolation spoken of by Daniel the Prophet, which had been...

    Are we in the end times ?

    The reason I believe that many of these prophesies are literal is because of the way OT prophesies have been fulfilled in the past. I am ok with calling "soon" the last 2000 years of man's history. A final book for the church to read as they evangelize the world for 2000 years knowing that the...

    Do we stress baptism enough?

    Probably because they don't understand how much it helps people in their decision process to repent and make a commitment to live differently from that day forward. The whole act of baptism does a lot to ignite faith and set them on the momentum of a renewed mindset that is less likely to...

    What did Jesus mean?

    I said my mind is open. I am not saying you are 100% wrong. Maybe your interpretation is the one John had in mind. Smart minds have been discussing it for centuries. I would never be dogmatic that trial by fires cannot be a possible interpretation. I find it weaker of the three most common...

    Why men like women!

    Love Jesus with all your mind... Don't look at them in any kind of way you wouldn't look at your sister or mother... things like that.. until they become a habit. You become strong in areas you were once weak and are not subject to "slipping" after you have trained yourself. It is just like...

    Why men like women!

    There are short term volunteer missions teams that go build churches or houses for pastors in 3rd world countries. They go in teams, 10 days each group. They organize the different skilled labor to come and do their part before the next team comes. Women go with these groups. You will meet...

    Why men like women!

    I don't know what issues old cat ladies have or why they find cats a substitute for marraige, but if a man is lonely I would suggest first of all that he be involved in a good church and be volunteer for all sorts of ministry and service. That will get him around friends that will be life long...

    What did Jesus mean?

    I know that there are verses about trials of fire. However in hermeneutics you want to try and conclude what the writer, or the speaker intended by the most persuasive rules first. Context being the most persuasive in this instance would lead one to lean heavily on the fire of judgment...

    Why men like women!

    Natural and spiritual. It is God's plan for men to have fellowship with a wife. But some Christian men have discovered a desire to serve God in fulltime ministry and study the word of God many hours a day and give themselves to preaching, teaching, evangelism, and to go here and there on the...

    What did Jesus mean?

    I would call it a common interpretation. Whether it is an error or not is a matter of opinion. The baptism of fire could be the judgment of fire mentioned in the same context. The context gives this great reason for such an interpretation. Why insert trials here. There is less reason to...
