Hello all. While we are talking about dates (with the understanding that it is just for fun and not with any belief in their accuracy) have you heard this theory before? According to the Jewish calendar we are in the year 5763. In 237 years we will reach the year 6000 (six being the number...

I recently read a book entitled, "The Gospel According to Jesus" by John F. MacArthur Jr. Its primary focus is on the gospel message that is presented in most churches today and whether or not that message has been watered down. The larger underlying theme of the book deals with the debate of...

Eph777, thank you for you advice. I have come across a few who obviously didn't know what they were talking about. That is what I meant by glean...   but only a fool turns down good advice and I thank you for yours. I started this thread with the simple hope of getting some people...

whoa, sorry about the mess! I have no idea what all that is about but I promise  there is a thought in there somewhere.

Hey guys, mind if I jump in? I just found your thread. I would also like to agree with thetruthseeker... &nbsp; ok, so they are not technically what you call "gifts". I would call them <SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'...

I had a nice post typed up and ready to submit but I did something wrong, got an error message, and then it was gone. The whole thing! So I'm going to try this again... OK, we seem to have two new thoughts going here. 1. Jesus (according to JesusServant) was the first of creation. 2...

Hi guys, strange topic you have here. May I play devil's advocate? First in verse 2 the Magi, after arriving in Jerusalem, begin asking "where is the one born king" and verse three says Herod "heard this he was disturbed".&nbsp;Wouldn't that be an obvious move on the part of the Magi. They...

&nbsp; JesusServant, thanks for joining in. I don't know if you have read the earlier posts (if so, bear with me because i'm going to just repeat myself) but I do not believe that the word that the KJV translates as evil in Isa 45:7 means "evil" in the sense we are talking here. &nbsp...

Pastor N.B.&nbsp; Thanks for the reply. A question if you don't mind. In an attempt to reply to Wonder's statement... &nbsp; I was hoping to find a verse that spoke of Satan and his angels as having "fallen". If they are called fallen then that, by the very use of the word, suggest a...

Hello Wonder: Thank you for your reply. I was getting worried there for a bit. I agree that Jesus stated that Satan was a murderer from the beginning and the father of lies (Jn 8:44) but surely you are not claiming that he was created thus. How could God create satan as a liar and a murderer...

Hello everyone. This is my first actual post but I have been surfing around for a while just enjoying the different topics and am (to be honest) a little overwhelmed by what I have read. I have spent that last 10 years trying to excite my friends about the bible and encourage theological...
