Nah. I don't even think you are sinless, but I think you have a relationship with the Lord.

Ahh, let me ask you this about the time so terrible that it has never been before or ever will be. I would say the flood has been the worst of history so far. But even then the earth was still the same earth, and opposition to God still existed there. The time that Satan is really pissed and...

Yeah, them and they is unbelievers. We and our is believers. Paul is telling the Church that the coming of the Lord has not happened and won't happen until after the falling away and the man of sin is revealed. Why would he then change his mind and tell the Church that the coming of the Lord...

They don't have to be married to care about each other and still have a relationship with each other.

God talks with Cain.

Hey there, glad to have another voice in this discussion as we explore all possible meanings. I'll give what some scholars say about that verse. Let me list it and highlight the word phrase I want to focus on. 1 Thessalonians 4:17 KJV (17) Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up...

Another thing that doesn't add up to the "left behind" doctrine is the abomination of desolation. In Daniel we see this happening during the Greek empire (the 3rd beast) that was split between the 4 generals of Alexander. Hardly no scholar at all doubts that Antiochus Epiphanes (of the 3rd...

Here's the twinkling of the eye verses: 1 Corinthians 15 KJV (50) Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption. (51) Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, (52) In a...

I don't think so. Paul has spent the better portion of the Thessalonian letters telling the Church they must stand fast and endure through their suffering of oppression because they will get relief and be vindicated when the Lord comes to take vengeance on the oppressors. That is what we comfort...

Yes, you are fine. I like to study with you. You question things and seek truth.

Nah. God was still with them outside of the garden, and God was still with them after they had children.

Well the death they died sure wasn't a loss of relationship with God because God sought them out and clothed them when they ate the fruit. God was still with them. And God was still with them when Cain killed Abel. Don't be such a tootie pootie.

Then Adam & Eve were not spiritually dead when they ate the fruit. Because they still had a relationship with God as God sought them out and clothed them.

Makes perfect sense to compare Revelation to the OT scriptures since Paul tells us that no matter what anyone tells you, you should check the scriptures to see if what they say is truth. And yes, I would love to see a study thread on comparing the imagery of Revelation to imagery in the OT...

Eric Church is about to take you to church! OK, for some lighthearted philosophical exercise, watch this music song video and say who you think the Copperhead represents and who the Rattlesnake represents. (Could have a variety of answers depending on if you are thinking religiously...

OK, but since there are guys called "dead" that are not physically dead, then what type of "dead" are they?

"leave the dead to bury their own dead" There are two types of "dead" in that verse. The physical dead to be buried, and the other 'dead' that are burying that physically dead guy.

I applaud you! I'm doing the same. But my historical vantage point is from the 1st century and before and try to study it without the clutter of modernized interpretations (such as locust being military black helicopters). I'm looking for what the early Jews would have in their mind when reading...
