Hello Again. I dropped off a bit, but saw Faroukfarouks post, and was reminded of another post expressing thoughts of heresy when it came to Dispensationalism. There are visceral responses to that idea, and so wanted to see what the scriptures actually say about this concept, which took...

Rev (Is this short for Reverend?) How would you describe a Dispensationalist?What do they believe? In what way have they manifested themselves as arrogant and nasty? Toward you personally, or toward specific doctrines? Kathleen Ann

Study the scriptures, pray, share the gospel. and wait with patience. Seems like there are people all over the place-maybe it is time for people to get rooted in the Lord and His word.

Hello Tom. If you recognize that Christmas, Halloween and Easter are pagan holidays. and no Christian should be observing these, that will eliminate many traditional churches. To observe Jewish holidays is denying the distinctiveness of the Jews as a nation and all the promises made to...

There are other texts that refer to healing water. Again, we have to ask how the original audience would understand these things. There is the river Euphrates in the garden of Eden, along with the tree of life. In Revelation, when the Lord restores all things, there is the river Euphrates...

We should understand clouds in light of all the occurrences of the Lords decent in the clouds beginning with the first occurrence, then work our way forward. His throne is made up of angels. Shechaniah is the Lord in the cloud of angels, is it not? See how the original audience would understand...

Hello Interplanner. Thanks for your reply. What scriptures do you honor to describe what is going to happen yet future? I saw you mentioned judgement and destruction/re-creation? The thing about going only as far back as the NT and the writers use of the OT, you may miss the bigger...

Hello Codger and Interplanner. Thanks for your replies. What are you specifically looking for then in the Lord's return? You see there is a delay. I very much understand the disannuling of the former priestly order as Christ is after another order-eternal, takes away sin by His one...

It is helpful to see how the Lord in the gospels, and all the NT writers understand prophecy, and what they affirmed was happening in their time and what was left to happen. For instance the Zech 13:7 passage: the Lord indicates His fulfillment of this at His time of suffering, but not the...

This idea always baffled me. here's what I was thinking. these were individuals who evidenced regenerating faith but were martyred before they were water baptized. In this context, the Corinthian saints manifested the outpouring of the Holy Spirit(baptized in Spirit) where they had manifested...

Christ sits on His Father's right Hand His Throne above all. Heb 10:12.Eph 1:20,Ps 110:1,Col 3:1,Heb.1:3, Eph 2:6(believers of the post-Acts era will sit with Him there) David will sit on Christ's throne in his resurrection. Jer. 30:9 read entire chapter. Do know Davids hope is to be...

Hi Tom I listen to a Primative Baptist preacher from across the US. He is likely in his late 70's, and preaches some fundamental truths. Do not have an assembly to meet with. The more time I spend studying the scripture, the more convinced that there is no place to go. Have some good...

If you are in WesternPA, do not know of any. Check out the Primative Baptists if you are in EasternPA

Hello. Agreed Faroukfarouk. I do believe in the ultimate restoration of all things all the elect will rest in the Lord through all eternity. His return and restoration as Lord of all He will again rest with those as His body in Him as Head, His Bride Israel, and the Gentiles who will...

Hello All. I responded to the poll that asked if the Lord's Day was Saturday or Sunday. I do not believe the reference in Rev. 1:10, the only place where this phrase occurs, is referring to any holy day. My vote is no holy days are to be observed in our time. That we live in a parenthesis...

Hello. As per voting on The Lord's Day: the only occurrence of this phrase is in Rev. 1:10, and in context, I do believe it is referring to John's being "upon" the future time directly preceding the Lord's return. My vote is no Saturday or Sunday observance of these or any other holy day...

Hello Bob, From Scratch, and others interested. From Scratch listed two references regarding the Lord's fulfilling all the law. Mt 5:17,18 as well as Luke 24:44. Things written of Him in the law, psalms, and prophets must be fulfilled. There are many things He is yet to fulfill related to...

Just want to encourage you to read the bible for your own soul's sake. Kathy

Hello Dean. The yoke of bondage is seeking a righteousness of our own by our own works. There is no good in us. We fall short of the glory of God. Only Christ is righteous. Only He had pure faith, perfectly kept all the law of God, sought after God, came to do His will, did not seek His...

Thanks Danoh.
