Yes, it makes sense. The ones that rejected Christ started out recorded in the Book of Life and then were stricken from it when they rejected Him. Beasley

Chestertonrules; This is probably one of the most misused passages but the context of the passage is clear as a bell. 15"Beware of the false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly are ravenous wolves. 16"You will know them by their fruits. Grapes are not gathered from...

It says: 3Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ, 4just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we would be holy and blameless before Him This 'us', does that just mean...

Van: Just thought I'd throw in this curious Messianic passage. 21They also gave me gall for my food And for my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink. 22May their table before them become a snare; And when they are in peace, may it become a trap. 23May their eyes...

Hi MamaZ: Just wanted to mention that Eph 1:3-14 is one long sentence, so when considering it, you have to consider it as a whole. What I am trying to say is that all of it is only 'in Christ' and Eph 1:13-14 define when a person is placed 'in Christ'. It is only after having heard the...

BenJohnson: I would like to address your points one at a time. [/B] No, we don't agree. Salvation and indwelt fellowship are two different things and I think I can demonstrate that for you. I think you would agree that the OT saints were saved. Moses, Abraham, Daniel, David, Saul...

MamaZ, thank you. Prayers are always welcome. My family members are healing and should fully recover. The power of prevailing prayer is incredibly powerful. Beasley

Ben: My apologies, I've been away on a family emergency. I dislike starting a correspondence and then leave it hanging. I am back home now and will be able to respond this week. Beasley

come on guys.... 9Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor homosexuals, 10nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers, will inherit...

Way to go - moving Creationism to the Science section and breaking Philosophy out of Theology. very good all around Beasley

13"But the one who endures to the end, he will be saved. People see the word 'saved' in the Bible and automatically assume it is referring to their eternal salvation. What is Christ referring to when he makes the above statement? 1Jesus came out from the temple and was going away when His...

Jerusalem has been destroyed before. When Israel was taken out under divine discipline for 70 years (around 580 or so?) it was the believing Jews that were taken out of Jerusalem into captivity that were preserved outside of the destruction in Jerusalem, that rebuilt the temple. Desolations...

I don't agree that there is an error in the text in Rev 7. I don't think we fully understand what is happening. At least the absence of Ephraim has a solid explanation and Dan a potential one. Jacob gave Joseph a double portion in Gen. 48 when he blessed his sons before he died. One portion...

The citizens of the United States as well as other nations of the free world have thrown billions of dollars at the problem to no avail. We are not going to be successful in cleaning up the devil's world. The fact is: 'You shall have no other gods before you.' and nations that reject God...

It's possible. Interesting that Christ came and fulfilled Israel's spring feasts in person. No doubt He will fulfill Israel's fall feasts in person. There are long summer months with no feasts. Beasley

Hi Gal3: the passage you are looking for is Daniel 11:37. Read the surrounding context and I think you will see it ties with Rev. 13 mentioned by HisDaughterJen. You might also want to review Daniel 7:15-28 and Daniel 9. I disagree with the idea mentioned above that Satan is bound at this...

Benoni: I appreciate your last post. 'If you love me keep my commandments.' To many believers confine their relationship with the Lord to a nod to God on Sunday and count themselves faithful. But, it is that moment by moment every day personal fellowship for which Christ indwells us. He...

Child: I think you are correct, it is a positive thing because Christ cannot deny himself in us. The believer is in permanent union with Christ (Eph 1) and even when we stumble or lack faith he cannot deny himself. if we endure, we will also reign with him. If we disown him, he will also...

Thought I'd throw this passage in for consideration 10According to the grace of God which was given to me, like a wise master builder I laid a foundation, and another is building on it. But each man must be careful how he builds on it. 11For no man can lay a foundation other than the one...

I think the text means exactly what is says. The 2 proceeding verses are specific that it is referring to the Second Coming. "For the coming of the Son of Man will be just like the days of Noah. 38"For as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in...
