    Urgent: Mom Might Not Make It 🥺

    We should know God put in place the provisions we need, we sometimes have to act on doing what is needed for those, with it revealed somewhere or in some way how to do so.

    The Real Antichrist For The End

    The one prophesied to come with description as a great beast will come after there is collapse, which is coming, which with promises from that one will be the way that all the world will follow him, other than few willing to give up their lives in this world for the sake of faithfulness to God...

    Do we have a complete, perfect, and sufficient Bible?

    There is nothing that establishes the Textus Receptus as the one authorative set of passages to the exclusion of the other ancient manuscripts, and there are many points of disagreement, it is unsupported faith that the King James Version Bible is the one correct translation and others are wrong...

    The church, Paul agrees, Post Tribulation.

    I am guessing there is no one looking at Isaiah 24 and seeing the connection, there was not any response to my suggesting it anyway. Regardless of what is concluded about the timing of prophesied tribulation, I see connection of the fall of Mystery Babylon with prophecy of collapse of all the...

    Urgent: Mom Might Not Make It 🥺

    I have the understanding that God is just and fair, without compromise. God is merciful and gracious, and the way of God's redemption is available, with what the promised one, Christ, bore for any that meets that uncompromised fair justice, such that they come to him. They who do remain with God...

    Star Trek Thread

    I do not know where that came from. God shows grace, and with not just willingness for any to perish, all might see evidence showing that God is there, to whom we should respond. With any response, there is much more response from God, who shows what is needed. There can be the gospel that some...

    The Teachings of Jesus (TOJ)

    Righteousness, which we have from Christ, is with love for others, which is demonstrated. Jesus Christ showed the example for this, and taught for this, and the fruits of the Spirit for believers to grow in really includes this. About the end and catastrophes, civilization will collapse, Jesus...

    What is a church?

    I never use the phrase 'the church of America'. There are all real believers, who are in Christ, generally, and being divided by political states is not meaningful before God. And there are local congregations that include believers, though false believers may be included with them easily, these...

    The Road to Emmaus

    Psalm 45:6-7 Your throne, God, is forever and ever. A scepter of equity is the scepter of your kingdom. You have loved righteousness, and hated wickedness. Therefore God, your God, has anointed you with the oil of gladness above your fellows. Shown in Hebrews 1:8 it is Jesus, who is...

    Difference between Baptized with the Holy Ghost and being FILLED with the Holy Ghost vs

    It seems disagreement is not from being pentecostal, or charismatic. But no, with being saved there is not automatic production of the spiritual fruit, that is obvious to me from seeing others. Spiritual fruit, which should come as this is the main evidence of being sealed in our salvation...

    Would you ever eat...?

    A good variety of what is edible for food from plants is the healthiest for us, I see it is good to eat from as many as is reasonably possible to do, I try this approach. So I would not say I would not eat from those, except for what is too spicy for me, but there would probably be a way to use...

    Would you ever eat...?

    I will use cayenne pepper I shake out of the bottle for my cooked meals, I did hear there are benefits to our well-being from that. Many of my choices involve what is benefitting well-being. That sauce I make with La Victoria medium salsa that I really like is with about an equal amount of...

    Difference between Baptized with the Holy Ghost and being FILLED with the Holy Ghost vs

    It should be seen by all believers that every believer, being in Christ, is baptized with the Holy Spirit. To be filled with the Holy Spirit would be submitting fully to God and not making exception to any of it. This is what having the fruits of Spirit involves. We should grow with those. With...

    What is a church?

    Alright. Church generally mentioned in the Bible, ecclesia, is referring to a local assembly of believers. If we mean the whole body of believers it is better to say that, or the body of Christ, for being clear. Yet as you mentioned there is the church in heaven, the bride of Christ, so that...

    The church, Paul agrees, Post Tribulation.

    Read Revelation 18, carefully seeing details. Then read Isaiah 24, carefully seeing details. I can't do that for you for you to see. I have already been seeing it. If you do this, I expect you will see the parallels that I figured out are about the same thing that will happen.

    I gave up on finding a mate.

    Little attention in textual discussion about finding a suitable mate is given to the caveat that more attractive individuals according to cultural standards in the society they are in have more success, and the converse of that is that those not at all so attractive according to those standards...

    What does Jesus look like according to the Bible?

    It is going to be a revelation to us how Jesus appears when Jesus returns, which will happen according to his promise. It is sure that when Jesus was in this world appearing to those who were descendents of Israel, he was not a white man. None would have even been known of, there. Romans later...

    I gave up on finding a mate.

    God is not willing that any just perish but there should be repentance, that there will be faith for salvation that is provided. There are those without any repentance, enough, Esau is such an example. He was not without opportunity for that needed repentance.

    What does Jesus look like according to the Bible?

    There are details to the appearance Jesus had, that we cannot know in any case, while what we should already know about Jesus is clearly revealed for us. We will know more of those details when Jesus returns, which should happen as Jesus said it would.

    I gave up on finding a mate.

    You might give up. But don't, if you do not have to. When I could I tried, and eventually being frustrated, after a long time being single again, decided I was trying too hard, and didn't, not knowing what I was waiting for but already being older. Now, it might be too late.
