    Should Apocalyptic Madness be believed?

    Umm, this is were your wrong M8. I lost my faith because I found the truth. If facts tell me that the earth goes around the sun and my faith tells me that everything centres on the earth and truth proves that the earth goes around the sun, then I obviously will loose my faith. This is...

    Should Apocalyptic Madness be believed?

    This is what the book of Daniel implys, yes, and yes, Daniel lived in Babylon but the book of Daniel, that he didn’t write, is widely believed by scholars and historians, to be written in epiphanies time, with Hindsight of all that came before. This is common with ancient Jewish...

    Is Revelation a book about the future ?

    I would have thaught the value would have been in the ability for the bible to have forsight and see mans progress through time. I have read the Bible many times and many times believed it's forcasts but these days, it has become obvious that the bible lacks the ability to pradict anything in...

    Should Apocalyptic Madness be believed?

    I see what you’re saying Vin and agree to a certain extent. I agree that others use single verses to build apocalyptic views but I also see those who link scripture together can still fall into the same errors. For example; It appears that Jesus himself had done this very thing? He has...

    Should Apocalyptic Madness be believed?

    I would luv to see more proof on this. Do you have a link for this? First, I no longer believe the bible is the word of god. Second, its writings are very clear. There isn’t anything hard to understand about the bible. That doesn’t mean it is believable. This is clearly Greek mythology...

    Should Apocalyptic Madness be believed?

    Speculate one thing for me in all this…:preach: You said, “Christ will come again”. In Jesus time, the Jews where waiting for “Elijah” to return. He was taken up into heaven and never died. Jesus said that John the Baptist was Elijah returned, so, In light of this, how will Jesus return...

    Should Apocalyptic Madness be believed?

    Little flower, do you have any literal evidence that Jesus is alive? Did he appear to you physically and prove he was Jesus resurrected or are you just assuming this because of a lifetime of Christian theology and religious commitment to Jesus as gods son?? The whole Roman Empire saw Augustus...

    Should Apocalyptic Madness be believed?

    OK, hear is a major disagreement between us. You are right. I see an apocalyptic Jew, “Jesus”, birthed Christianity through apocalyptic Judaism. From that day forward, Christianity has been obsessed with apocalyptic beliefs. Apocalyptic beliefs are not just futuristic beliefs but are also...

    Should Apocalyptic Madness be believed?

    OK, How is this deep?? The only depth hear for me is in grasping the reality of this?? Lets look at this logically shall we!! "Jesus loves me, this I know." Umm, Historically, Jesus was a Jew who lived 2000 yrs ago and doesn't even know I am alive let alone love me. I suppose I could...

    Should Apocalyptic Madness be believed?

    Covenant Heart, I enjoyed reading what you wrote and agree with almost all of what you said. My look is at the whole prophetic and apocalyptic mess, not just revelations. I have read revelations many times and like most people, have my own ideas on it. Most of what you said is the same as I...

    Ahh, Right you are!! I was thinking of what Paul said in Romans and thought you meant this scripture. Romans 11 25For I would not, brethren that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the...

    As a Christian who has faith in god, how can I reconcile these apocalyptic myths within my own religion of Christianity when as you can see below, I don’t bye it at all. I am a Christian and I don’t believe one single word of these myths you guys seem so confident about. Am I not a Christian...

    One book not mentioned yet and probably the most influential book that not only influenced the early church fathers but also influenced Jesus and the Apostles teachings. This book was written by apocalyptic Jews around 200 BCE and is called “The Book Of Enoch” (TBOE). Considering Jesus was an...
