    The Bible's theme in a nutshell?

    This a good topic that should produce some good answers. Since God created individuals there should be some good individual answers. For me the theme or the verse I find the bible predicated on is, Come let us make man in our image. I find how when God says he changes not and we are not...

    Home Sweet... Mortgage...Or Rent. Which Would You Choose?

    Yes and no on the legit. BlackRock did buy homes for income producing reasons. However, some of what was reported as BlackRock was Black Stone as they are in the real estate business. So when we take all of them BlackRock, Black Stone, and REIT's, or institutions overall, combined they are...

    Home Sweet... Mortgage...Or Rent. Which Would You Choose?

    I found here or this site quite by accident and just happened to join. Reason I say it that way is I had joined some Christian groups on facebook and to be kind just was not my cup of tea. So I dropped out of all of them and decided that talking to fellow believers via social media may not be...

    Apostle Paul Taught What Jesus Taught About The Rapture

    That is exact language. When Christ speaks in the New Testament we have the ability to go back to the old testament and find where he first said it and get a full picture of the context. Or what many scholars refer to as the rule of first mention. For example in the new when he speaks of...

    Why Did He Bury The Talent? If he's convinced the Lord is not coming back, why?

    @cv5 I will have to listen to the links you posted bro. My take has always been that the wicked servant was just lazy. He fits a lot of what is said in Proverbs concerning the lazy. When I have read this verse the one that always came to mind for me is Proverbs 26:13, The slothful man...

    Thorn in Paul's body

    I have to agree I have leaned towards it was his eyes. However, will not say it was that 100%. I do find though it was some kind of infirmity. Based mainly on the similitude of language used by Paul as well as Christ. When Christ has healed the woman who was bent over and the Pharisees took...

    Who and what are the two beast of Revelation 13 and mark 666?

    While this really is nothing doctrinal or changes anything. I sometimes find just being a individual who loves history with my favorite era's being the ancient and the classical. One of the thing historical just makes me always think yeah God knows it all and has it under control. Is Daniel...

    How dreadful it will be in those days for pregnant women and nursing mothers! There will be great distress in the land and wrath against this people.

    I have not been keeping track. However, @Pilgrimshope had made the comment and now has been so gracious to explain why he did and how he came by doing so.

    Daniel and four kingdoms

    You can have more than one superpower. Today folks consider the US and China superpowers. Before this during the cold war they considered Russia and the US the superpowers. More land and population has nothing to do with being a superpower. The ability to force your will upon other nation...

    Thanks I appreciate you finding that link and now that you also explained how you derived at the 3 years. Cestius is the one who did so. He took with him the 12th Legion coming down from Syria and of course taking towns along the way and securing the Jerusalem suburbs. He then sieged the...

    Just say NO to easter!

    Worship of false gods in scripture and even in the world today, I would find Satan behind that and worship he gets and desires. He wants to set his thrown above God's and be like the Most High. He literally told Christ he would give him all the kingdoms of this world if Christ worshipped him...

    Death curses the law

    What killed him? What was in his heart, lust brought forth sin and sin brought forth death. Christ pointed to we sin first in our hearts before the act. He said that if a man looks upon a woman to lust he had already committed adultery with her in his heart. James 1:.....13Let no man say...

    Day of the Lord and the Thief.

    I don't find at all that is about the anti-christ. It is about the punishment about to come upon them for their constant sin and abominations. The whole chapter points to that. Will just quote the verses above and below but there is no connection to the anti-christ. Jeremiah 8..... 12Were...

    Predestination is misunderstood...

    Are you ESL by chance? I find that you don't fully understand English. As if you read what I said it would be clear that I never said that and your fixation on what was never said nor implied leads me to believe that English may be a second language to you.

    Predestination is misunderstood...

    God did not create the knowledge of good and evil in man that came by the eating of the tree. God will rectify that as he will make a new world where just like in the beginning we will have no knowledge of good and evil. Just good. We will only know the God who says he is love and the God who...

    Who and what are the two beast of Revelation 13 and mark 666?

    Thanks brother. Also sorry if before it came across that I was on attack when I mentioned the length of the siege of Jerusalem. I am not completely anti-social have gotten better since coming to the Lord. However, at times I still do come across as being combative or just arguing for the sake...

    Predestination is misunderstood...

    You argue against yourself. In another thread you say that eating the fruit gave man the knowledge of good and evil. Now you say that God created that in man. Not at all saying that you now say that God created evil in man. I am saying that you are now saying that God created the "knowledge"...
