John, there is twelve tribes of Israel. Those of them who believed in Jesus belong to the church. Those twelve tribes of Israel who do not believe in Jesus as their Messiah do not belong to the church, but continue under the covenant of the law which can never save them or anyone else...

Hello John146, James is indeed speaking to the twelve tribes of Israel, but not in reference to those 144,000 who come out of the unbelieving Israel during the tribulation period. Any Jew from the twelve tribes who became a believer (like Paul, Peter, etc.) who became a believers, belong to...

I totally agree cv5. It is equally an uphill battle to interpret the 144,000 from the twelve tribes of Israel as referring to the church as well, which is what he has proclaimed. But this is a commonly known false teaching. The church is made up of both Jew and Gentile. But God is going to deal...

The nation Israel and the church are two separate entities. The church is made up of both Jew and Gentiles, The nation Israel/the woman of Rev.12, are those who did not and do not recognize Jesus as their Messiah. The church is not Israel. I stand by a literal interpretation, unless the...

Good day UnitedWithChrist! Dispensationalism has two primary distinctives: 1) a consistently literal interpretation of Scripture, especially Bible prophecy, and 2) a view of the uniqueness of Israel as separate from the Church in God’s program. Are you saying that you don't believe in the above?

I agree with your assessment that the rider on the white horse will be one who is pretending to be Christ, except not false prophets, but the antichrist. The first seal rider on the white horse is a counterfeit of the rider on the white horse in Rev.19:11-21 who is the Lord Jesus. Agreed...

Hello Whispered! Below is Rev.6:16-17 which takes place at the opening of the 6th seal: "They called to the mountains and the rocks, “Fall on us and hide us f from the face of him who sits on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb! For the great day of their wrath has come, and who can...

"But He was pierced for our transgressions, He was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon Him, and by His stripes we are healed. Jesus met the righteous requirements of the Law on behalf of all believers, satisfying it completely. Jesus took upon himself the...

Greetings and Welcome, Mercy!

Greetings and Welcome, Emmy! I also live in Arizona, Lake Havasu City. Praise God that you went from being Atheist to a believer in Christ. You passed over from eternal condemnation to eternal life. I moved from Southern California 14 years ago. I noticed that you said you'd like to move to...

Greetings and Welcome to Christian Chat summerlovin86 from main!

Greetings and Welcom, Cloudscape!

Regarding cancer, disease and such, it reminds me of this event which took place with Jesus and his disciples: The bottom line is that, it is because of sin that we have all of these diseases, sicknesses, grow old and die. Praise be to God that we have the promise of new immortal and glorified...

Good day Robo36, I believe that there is an age of accountability. God is not going to condemn a child who doesn't even know what sin is or is not even aware of the world around him/her. However, God is just and it is His Sovereign decision. "So then, just as one trespass brought condemnation...

Hello BrotherMike, I agree! And I would also be grateful to have a wife if God brought one into my life. If she was God-sent, then I'm sure that my feelings about feeling hemmed in or trapped would change. As scripture states, everyone has their proper gift from God. I truly hope that the...

Yes, it is because, even though their intentions may be good, their desires take over, overriding God's will to fulfill theirs. And then there are some, as you called them, "wolves in sheep's clothing" whose purpose is only to fulfill their desires, having eyes full of lust and adultery. I was...

Greetings and Welcome, therobinfliesagain!

And thank you for your understanding. I only hope that others reading this behind the scenes who are going through the same situation (and I'm sure there are many), that the Spirit would convict them into action to do whatever they need to in order to resolve the sexual immorality in their...

I agree, Atheists can live happy lives, until they die anyway. However, if they die as Atheists, their eternal existence is not a question mark. For the word of God is clear about what happens to those without Christ. Anyone who does not believe is already condemned, which is the state of...

Good day Alertandawake! I don't believe that there is going to be an "enforcement system." The mark is going to be that proverbial line being drawn in the sand. The way in which the false prophet will force the inhabitants of the earth to receive the mark, will be the removal of all the other...
