    Trump restored references to God in presidential Thanksgiving proclamations after Obama abandoned

    It is good to hear that Trump restored a God centered thanksgiving in America. I hope that Trump will be guided by God all throughout. It is only right to acknowledge God and remember to offer Him thanksgiving. Before we thank human effort and hard work, we must lift up the works of our hands...

    The beginning of all things-How something came out of nothing

    I believe so. How do we explain "Dark matter" and "Dark Energy" to which the Scientists cannot have explanation until now, despite all the modern technology available to us today? Just as God, who created all things are invisible, so does the 95% percent (approximately) of the universe we see...

    Was it really the spirit of Samuel that talked with King Saul or something else?

    Yes, but we can see that nowadays, still these very same things exist. Some people are in fortune telling, black magic and witchcraft. But God hated all of these practices which invoke evil spirits and demons. Manasseh was twelve years old when he became king, and he reigned fifty-five years in...

    Was it really the spirit of Samuel that talked with King Saul or something else?

    I agree, God always forbid necromancy or calling of the dead in the Bible (medium). Not only that, witchcraft, sorcery, black magic and fortune telling were forbidden too because it's demonic in nature. I Samuel 28: 7-8) Saul seeks out a medium. Then Saul said to his servants, “Find me a woman...

    Do you reject the Sermon on the Mount as being applicable today?

    No, I don't think Jesus was teaching "Burnt offering" or "Sacrifices" in Matthew 5:24. Jesus was ONLY STATING what was "already customary to the Jews" during His time. And we can tell that, from the way He had spoken. Definitely not something he said to preach to the people. But the main issue...

    Do you reject the Sermon on the Mount as being applicable today?

    No definitely, I do not reject the sermon on the mount as something that is no longer applicable nowadays. The God we have doesn't change. He is "immutable". The Bible says that "He is the same God yesterday, today and forever". What He decreed 2,000 years ago is the same decree He is enforcing...

    Why is God hidden, invisible, unprovable?

    Yes, the manifested God in the flesh is visible to the naked eye. The "Emanuel" or the Lord Jesus Christ. But God in his natural state or form is invisible. Now to the King eternal, immortal, INVISIBLE, to God who alone is wise, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen. I Timothy 1:17 NKJV

    Why is God hidden, invisible, unprovable?

    God cannot be seen or we may say that he's invisible because he is not made of flesh and bones which is visible to the eyes. We know from the Bible that God in his divinity, is a spirit and therefore cannot be seen by the flesh. That's why in the old testament. When God was communicating with...

    Do you have a favourite apostle?

    I would say, for me it would be Paul. As a gentile like me, I should thank Paul for working tirelessly to preach the gospel to the gentiles, even if it caused his life. Yes, he was a christian murderer who lived a pharisaic life from the beginning, but his changed of heart was so dramatically...
