    Are the words of Jesus not for Christians?

    Well, I believe that first, the Spirit of God would convict you of it and move you to repent and to make things right by forgiving that person. He's not saying if one time you did not forgive someone. You can repent of that and confess it and be forgiven. But if you have a continuous unforgiving...

    Are the words of Jesus not for Christians?

    And the scripture states that not everyone has the same gifts. You need to bring this into consideration. It says "those whom believe" not every one who believes. As Paul said, Do all speak in languages? Do all prophesy? Do all have gifts of healing? Everyone has their God-given gifts...

    Are the words of Jesus not for Christians?

    The answer to that is, since God has forgiven us for our great sins against Him, then we ought to forgive those who in comparison, have minutely sinned against us. Regarding the issue of losing ones salvation, what do you make of the following: "My brothers and sisters, if one of you should...

    And anyone else who demonstrated those gifts. That's not what I said. If anyone is experiencing those gifts, then they were obviously given to them by the Spirit. Yeah, and how many Christians do you know who are performing those gifts? I have never known or seen anyone who has demonstrated...

    WHAT IS SOON TO COME TO PASS IN THIS WORLD - BIBLE PROPHECY

    I have wondered about this also. Unfortunately, there is no information to quote from and therefore, we can only assume that at some point they will receive their immortal and glorified bodies. Because we know that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God. In addition, those mortal...

    The End, the A.C., Revelation and the rest of it.

    I have kept an eye out as I continue to understand why Dan is not included in the list of those who are sealed. Some have suggested from most likely reading someone else's teachings, that it was because of Dan's idol worship. The problem with this is that all of the tribes of Israel were guilty...

    Are the words of Jesus not for Christians?

    Well, you read the scripture for yourself. If someone is a believer, but holds a grudge not willing to forgive a fellow believer, then Jesus says of that person, neither heavenly Father forgive you. In fact in the context, the man was originally forgiven all his debt, but when he would not have...

    Are the words of Jesus not for Christians?

    Allow me to make this very clear once again. I Was not and have not been taught by any man. I have always done my own personal studies. I look up and study all of related scriptures. I do the studying! I do not adopt and repeat the teachings of men. Just FYI, the Roman Catholic religion is not...

    Are the words of Jesus not for Christians?

    "Again Jesus said, “Peace be with you! As the Father has sent me, I am sending you.” 22And with that he breathed on them and said, “Receive the Holy Spirit. 23If you forgive anyone’s sins, their sins are forgiven; if you do not forgive them, they are not forgiven.” Jesus also said the...

    The End, the A.C., Revelation and the rest of it.

    It is not literal if you are claiming that these things have already taken place. You would have to have literal fulfillment of these events in order to make that claim. When have we seen the Abyss opened and demonic beings released?

    The End, the A.C., Revelation and the rest of it.

    The purpose of that head receiving that fatal wound, will be for the purpose of deceiving the inhabitants of the earth by his claiming to be God. At the same time, the false prophet will be performing miracles, signs and wonders, even causing fire to come down from heave to the earth, for the...

    The End, the A.C., Revelation and the rest of it.

    Your error is the same as those who hold to a historical view, which is to allegorize the information in Revelation, instead of applying a literal interpretation to it.

    The End, the A.C., Revelation and the rest of it.

    First of all, I belong to no camp, for the information that I post is from my own studies. In other words, I am not siding with anyone's teaching. I am not looking hard to defend any camp, but contending for God's word. The image of the beast has not yet been made and that because the beast that...

    The End, the A.C., Revelation and the rest of it.

    It has to be future, because none of those events have yet taken place. The eighth king is that future king, the angel of the Abyss who is released at the sounding of the 5th trumpet. Since the 1st seal has yet to be opened, then the 5th trumpet certainly could not have yet been sounded which...

    The End, the A.C., Revelation and the rest of it.

    Just curios, what does Romans 9 have to do with the 144,000? If you are implying that they are the remnant of Israel, they are not. The woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet and wearing a crown of twelve stars of Rev.12 is representing the unbelieving nation of Israel...

    The End, the A.C., Revelation and the rest of it.

    "The beast, which you saw, once was, now is not, and yet will come up out of the Abyss and go to its destruction. Once was = at some previous time in history prior to John's writing of Revelation, the beast/angel was not in the Abyss but was out in the world. He was most likely a ruling power...

    The End, the A.C., Revelation and the rest of it.

    Greetings iamsoandso, First of all, it is important to understand that throughout chapters 1 thru 3 the word 'ekkesia' translated as 'church' is used 19 times. Then after that it is never used during the narrative of God's wrath. It is replaced with 'hagios' translated as 'Saints.' This is not...

    Are the words of Jesus not for Christians?

    Agreed! Likewise, there are groups out there who consider Paul a false apostle and therefore reject his writings as being the word of God. However, by doing so they are getting rid of a lot of scriptural information and promises such as the living being changed and caught up in I Thess.4:16-18...

    Are the words of Jesus not for Christians?

    Most everything that Jesus said to His disciples, promises, rebukes, etc., even before Pentecost, is applied to all believers. For example: "While they were eating, Jesus took bread, spoke a blessing and broke it, and gave it to the disciples, saying, “Take it; this is My body.” Then He took...

    The End, the A.C., Revelation and the rest of it.

    Hanukkah is the celebration of the rededication of the temple after it was desecrated by Epiphanes, which is in reference to the 2,300 days. The other reference in Daniel 9:27 is regarding that future ruler, the antichrist, when he sets up that abomination in the holy place. Furthermore, I see...
