    The Myth of Scriptural Literalism

    I just stole this tag from another user here (AV1611VET) "The Bible says it, that settles it." The general idea is that Scripture should generally be taken literally as written. The rubric that literalists generally claim to follow is: "“When the plain sense of Scripture makes common sense...

    Martin Luther On Revelation

    Martin Luther's Preface to the Revelation of St. John (1522) About this Book of the Revelation of John, I leave everyone free to hold his own opinions. I would not have anyone bound to my opinion or judgment. I say what I feel. I miss more than one thing in this book, and it makes me consider it...

    God Is Not The Author of Confusion

    How is the Revelation most often described? We all know that all End Times buffs understand the Revelation perfectly, but unfortunately it seems that no two of them agree on what it means. Seems that for most of us mere mortals; the Rev is best, and most often, described as "confusing". I've...

    New Can't Miss Date

    Here it is mates, the sure-fire can't-miss date for the End of the World: 2/22/2022. And if all those twos isn't enough to prove it, the fact that it's on Tuesday drives in the wedge! You're welcome!

    Trump & The End Times

    Has anyone found Scripture to prove that Trump is The Antichrist yet, or come up with an algorithm to get his name to add up to 666? We need to get these details worked out to provide for an orderly turnover of Antichrist responsibilities from Obama to Trump.

    Who's In Charge Here? - Who Holds All Power On Earth Right Now?

    This is a question that I have directly asked many posters here, all without result. Some have responded with spluttering along the lines of "Who do you think is in charge here? Is this the kind of world God wants?"but no straight, or more importantly no Biblical answers. So now I'm asking...

    A Truth Bomb

    I have taken the liberty of grabbing this quote from a brother in Norway because I found it to be a truth bomb that blasted away all the claptrap that has accumulated around the subject of eschatology. Here it is, without further comment from me. Mark Sam said: And when one realises that...

    Is Green Lantern Going To Hell?

    Now we're being told, by those who assure us that their knowledge of the Bible is far superiour to ours, that if Harry Potter existed he'd be hell bound because he uses magic. If rhat be the case, wouldn't Green Lantern be in the same predicament? Oh, sure, the power ring and battery are...

    Twisbnwim

    TWISBNWIM - "That's What It Says But Not What It Means", is the principle upon which multitudes of, shall we say, interesting doctrines are built, as well as some that are held by most of the Church to be true. It's usually expressed as "Yes. that's what it says, but what it really means...

    Christian Jargon

    Are there any expressions that Christians habitually use that drive you nuts? I have a bunch of them. My favorite, of course, is "but what that means is..." followed by the person's doctrinal opinion which may or may not have anything to do with the Bible verses in question. "Well in my...

    The End of the World As We Know it

    That's great, it starts with an earthquake, birds and snakes, an aeroplane - Lenny Bruce is not afraid. Eye of a hurricane, listen to yourself churn - world serves its own needs, don't misserve your own needs. Feed it up a knock, speed, grunt no, strength no. Ladder structure clatter with fear...
