I'm INFJ Personality. I'm a Christian. I don't like sports at all even dough I'm trying to create one.

I kinda believe in a theory. That the Giants from Joshua. Some of the Giants might've heard of the Hebrews warring against and they were heading their way to the promise land. So these Giants become the gods and goddesses of Norse Mythology, Greeks/Romans & other religion.

I think the two witnesses are actually two groups of people. One would be the Choose ones (Isreal) & the other one is Christians.

We're glad you're here. :)

There are a number of correlations between biblical characters and gods, etc., of other religions. One is the angel Tamiel of Judaism. He is the angel of contracts. The ancient Persian god Mithra was the god of contracts. Mithra was later "changed" I suppose after Mithraism was adopted by the Roman legions serving on the eastern frontier and brought back to Rome proper when they returned.

Jubal of Genesis 4, the father of those who play musical instruments, is associated with the ancient god Pan, who is portrayed playing a flute.

Welcome...
What is God doing in your life at this time?
What is He teaching you?

I am studying Roman's yet again...what a powerful book.


Just the idea that God is so merciful that He send Jesus to die for people like us, like me, WONDERFUL! Then to know that by faith I can both obtain salvation through Christ and obtain the ability to live for Christ in accordance with God's Will, POWERFUL!

To God be the glory!

The answer lies in Deuteronomy 32:8.
The people (after the tower of Babel dispersion) were divided among the sons of God (some translations say sons of Israel, but that doesn't make sense.)
So each tribe got their own god.
In Psalms 82 you can read they messed it up.
Rebellious gods, the gods of the tribes (See Genesis 10 for the genealogies).
But God chose Israel as his people, but that was later.
