    Darkness:

    Remember, this is only a discussion. I am not being dogmatic about anything here. But the evidence must be weighed and considered. So what the two of you seem to be saying is; we are not to use a dictionary either Hebrew or Greek in order to distinguish the difference between the various...

    Not one stone left.

    In God's plan of salvation for the Jews first, and than the Gentiles, why did the Temple in Jerusalem have to be destroyed? This seems to have been God's will, and was fulfilled in 70 A.D. by the Roman armies. Scriptures also give us the idea that a third temple is to be built where the old...

    How far away is your last breath?

    A few days ago there was a small earthquake in California that brought back to my memory an incident that happened to me 2 years ago. Unexpected; of course; one can never know when the next catastrophe will occur! I would like to share the following with you. Today may begin like any other...

    God honor's a good woman!

    Prov.31:10, “Who can find a virtuous woman? For her price is far above rubies.” A good woman is faithful; industrious; wise; frugal; vigilant; compassionate and farsighted. Faithful to her husband, family and friends! Industrious; one who is not lazy; one that supports her family! Wise...

    Necessity!

    We must never confuse necessity, or man’s free will with God’s perfect foreknowledge. Necessity is a thing that can not be and be at the same time. Necessity includes man’s free will, God’s irresistible power, compulsive forces both physical and moral, and what it is we believe. If...

    It's all about love!

    "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and not in your own understanding. In this the crooked shall be made straight and the rough places smooth." A little boy and girl were in the car with their father. The father drove out to a desolate place, motioned to the children to get out and drove...

    What is it the Father gave his Son?

    At the end of my tread I had asked, "What is it the Father gave His Son?" I received no responses, so I will answer my own question! If you don't agree with it, you had your chance, now it's my turn! First it must be observed that what is given to Jesus by the Father is expressed in the...

    Are you a double minded person?

    Years ago I heard three stories, let me tell you about them! Most of us are not familiar with exotic birds. This guy Tony Silver's was an author, and president of the Parrot association. At a parrot symposium, he advised newcomers, and collectors not to buy, or sell species of birds that were...

    What is it the Father gave his Son?

    God may will a thing to be, without willing that it shall be. John 6:37 thru 40, Jesus said, "All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out. Ver.38, For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me."...

    Comparing N.I.V. and similar Bibles with K.J.V.

    Cogent, you replied so quickly, I'm sure you have not read my post carefully, which tell me you don't care, or maybe you're a speed reader. But if you did read it carefully and still disagree, keep reading your N.I.V., I'm sure you think you know what you're doing! Phil LaSpino

    Is God the author of confusion?

    What are some of the causes of the instability now found in the body of Christ today? Scriptures teach there is one head, and one body. I believe it’s the publication of more than 200 Bibles we find being sold on the market. Is God the author of confusion? 1 Cor.14:33, “For God is not the...

    Comparing N.I.V. and similar Bibles with K.J.V.

    Today’s modern Bibles have rejected what is in the Received text of the K.J.B. These are the facts, more than 9900 Greek words have been added, subtracted, or changed from the words of the K.J.B. That is more than 15 words per page, or 7% of the total 140,521 words of the N.T. K.J.B. In many...

    The KJB and NWT disagree in many places but new versions side with the NWT in many

    Savedbygrace, you are absolutely correct! These people that argue with your stance haven’t taken two minutes of their own time to examine and compare the many editions with their corrupted verses that has taken place in most all new versions. They are Parrots mouthing only what they hear other's...

    Why faith alone and not Purgatory is necessay!

    Yarddog wrote, "Works of the law are not bad works." "Why don't you read (CAREFULLY) my two posts. There are over 600 laws that the Jews had to keep. Of course Jesus had to keep the law, he was under the law; were not! If He didn't keep the whole law he would have died with sin. No man can...

    Purgatory!

    Why faith alone and not Purgatory is necessay!

    When there is any fluctuation in one’s faith, real faith is subject to dark hours! I believe all, Catholic, protestant and Independences alike can agree that we are not to add or subtract from the Gospel message. So, what is the Gospel? The word gospel is compounded of two words, "god,"...

    Purgatory!

    Ebia, it would be nice if you could add something to the subject. You have said nothing, so it's obvious you're not very well informed on the subject. The following is a direct quote from the Catechism. "Some die in grace and in the friendship of God, but burdened with venial sins and...

    Which bible do you prefer - the King James or the JWs New World Translation?

    Rhamiel, of course you have heard of John Selden. He reported the event of the work done during the translation of the K.J.B. I won't write his whole report but what is necessary to reply to your comments. According to these regulations, each book (of the Bible) passed the scrutinity of all...
