    Is repentance a "one time act" or is it, or should it be "a way of life" (here)...?

    Using these same 2 scriptures, there is something else I believe that these 2 verses obviously verify. We know that Peter's original responsibility was preaching to the Jews, we also know that later in his ministry, before the 70 A.D. destruction and his own death around 68 A.D., Peter began...

    Peter in one of his epistles claims he does not actually understand Paul, but he does not doubt that Paul was sent by Christ. To me, this is a big clue that there were 2 forms of the same message being preached. Christ instructed His Disciples He was sent to have Mercy upon them, so they...

    It does actually. This is what you said: And what I said, people were not reading others work, personal letters, etc. And if Hebrews happens to be a message preached by Paul, then later on written down by Luke, there would be no guarantee the other Apostles were present while Paul preached...

    Is repentance a "one time act" or is it, or should it be "a way of life" (here)...?

    Yes, originally the "Magdalen Papyrus P64" was dated mid 2nd century. Later on, it was re-examined and discovered to be dated from mid 50 A.D. to mid 60 A.D. and was settled at around 60 A.D. Part of why the date jumped 100 years older to the first century, is due to a couple of things. It's...

    The interesting part of believing you understand the meaning of specific scripture is a process where you know the next time you read that same scripture it could change. Not that the scripture itself changes, but a deeper and more complex understanding of that scripture becomes apparent to...

    Should Christians support Rebuilding of Jerusalem Third Temple.

    Had you been one with the upbringing of the English language and it's multi usages, I would have pegged you correctly. Understanding that most likely English is your second/definitely not your native language, will generate a different format of responses from me towards you. But you did...

    There again, learning who you claim to be, is going to cause me to rethink my responses towards you.

    Should Christians support Rebuilding of Jerusalem Third Temple.

    IF, and I use the word IF this is actually you, the author, by your name gives me better insight to your responses. Your no nonsense analytical view, which is definitely lacking American zing threw me. I definitely extend my apologies to you. But then again, it's not unusual to find it...

    It's common knowledge by now. The original method began in Ancient Egypt, and we can see how the Greeks adopted it, the Romans, and all ancient cultures. How they date the method is by the glue that was used, and later closer to the time of Christ, they sewed it together. But long story...

    Should Christians support Rebuilding of Jerusalem Third Temple.

    Amen, that is absolutely correct!! hahahaha just sad and pathetic!! OK, let's break this down so Mr. Narcissist gets himself a clue: 2 Thessalonians 2 3Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be...

    That's between him and God, but the conversation between you and myself is one complete revolving circle mirroring your lack of logic!!

    Should Christians support Rebuilding of Jerusalem Third Temple.

    Your answers hardly ever match anything I ever say. Nothing I stated was dealing with the topic of salvation (I clearly said in this specific post this had nothing to do with my salvation), outside the fact that my observations were related solely to following the instructions given to us by...

    Is repentance a "one time act" or is it, or should it be "a way of life" (here)...?

    The reason I disagree with your assessment is we have the 4 Gospels, but they were written (dated by the papyrus method) well after the ministry of the Apostles. So, even though the Disciples had notes, Paul wrote letters, there is NO REASONING for us to believe they had access to each others...

    I never try to ask people's age, especially women hahaha (and I have no idea if you are male/female it's none of my business), but I just turned the big 5-0 just 8 days ago. I am part of a generation where the neighbors could verbally give you advice, even instruct you if you were doing...
