    Revelations

    Revelation requires a pretty comprehensive insight into OT/NT theology Lots of allegory for literal fulfillment

    If there is no Pre-Trib Rapture, are you prepared to go through the Tribulation???

    Im talking about Daniels 70th week, the final 7 years on earth as we know it. The rapture is not what you think it is. It is pretrib, but its not going to consist of every Christian who is sealed with the Holy Spirit. Most of the Christians will be here for the Trib.

    Can a Christian be saved with only the Bible?

    Im a student of scripture and as much as ive studied the bible, Ive never heard of what you are talking about. What is this "mystery" business you are talking about, is this a catholic thing?

    Revelation 12 The Church, and those counted worthy to escape

    Opinions and true exegetical study with prayer are two different things. Peoples beliefs are shaped by their foundational doctrines and their "well my grandpa always said" attitudes. Then you have the those who will twist scripture to mean whatever they want. Israel is back, and it...

    The Revelation of Jesus Christ...

    Correct, rapture without a resurrection. Not saying it couldnt happen, I just dont see it. For example, you are a futurist who understands Revelation is a future prophecy. But then you take a future prophecy, and mix the manchild up to mean Jesus Christ which is a previously given and...

    Why do some christians

    Ive given you scripture, and you cant see that you are refuting the scripture, not me. No offense bro, but you are unstudied, I would have to start you from the ground up. No one is cherry picking, you wanna debate a topic, pick the time and place, but as of right now Im fighting what...

    Is it a sin to call the Bible the "word of God"

    Im talking about the Recieved Texts, Codex Vaticanus and the Majority texts. They are all doctrinally consistent with subtle variations in wording, and that is just the NT. The Septuagint/Masoretic/DDS texts that make up the Tanakh are what we use for the OT.

    Is it a sin to call the Bible the "word of God"

    What? No, textual criticism apparatuses wouldnt be possible without the source papayri to begin with. Im telling you where the Bible comes from. I use the NA27/UBS4 with a bias towards the UBS4, but that honestly is for me and doesnt really have to do with where the bible comes from...

    Is it a sin to call the Bible the "word of God"

    Well thats not true, are you telling me there werent theological inconsistencies during the apostles times? Its written in the Bible, the canon tells you this. The Corinthians were dealing with this very issue. 2Co_11:4 For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not...

    Is it a sin to call the Bible the "word of God"

    Because the more texts we find, the more it corroborates the original cannon to be true. There are subtle differences, but they are all consistent. Keep in mind, the Ecumenical Gathering wasnt "Catholic" persay, the earliest writings were collected from all over the empire from the bishops and...

    Revelation 12 The Church, and those counted worthy to escape

    We need to accept Gods word for what it is, his word, then pray over it and ask the Spirit to guide us in our studies of the scriptures. My spiritual gift is prophecy, but that doesnt exclude me from study, prophets stand on the inerrancy of God Holy Word, no compromising. You cant tell me...

    The Revelation of Jesus Christ...

    Interesting, so 3 separate resurrection events? Can you show me that in scripture? Should be simple.

    Is it a sin to call the Bible the "word of God"

    So we cant trace the writings of scripture? lol, was it not the first Catholics who canonized it to begin with?

    Is it a sin to call the Bible the "word of God"

    I think I should have been more specific. For example, when did Church theology begin to vary from what is written?

    Can a Christian be saved with only the Bible?

    Oh really? Is that what they teach you in Church? These are Jesus Christs words below. Joh_14:26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you...

    Let the scriptures speak by the apostles in its simplicity. Rom 11:5 Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace. Rom 11:7 What then? Israel hath not obtained that which he seeketh for; but the election hath obtained it, and the rest were...
