    You are a horrible man/woman in God's eyes!

    I think we should all accept that we are nothing but filthy rags in everything we do each day. We are a fallen mankind and separated from God by the sins of our fathers and ourselves. Having said that, i am not a believer in the idea that "we owe it to God" to repent. God freely gave His life...

    Does the Apostle Paul claim that Jesus Christ, the holy anointed man, is Almighty God?

    One of the problems with those who are naysaying the trinity is that they do not understand the concept of the dual nature of Christ. Christ was God Incarnate in human flesh. He is both God and man at the same time. So when he talks of His Father being greater than himself, he is talking as the...

    Fallen Angel and the Truth of God

    yes exactly right...it did happen before the temptation and disobedience of Adam and Eve (fall of man). After Satan was cast down to this earth he sought to destroy everything God made...so he went after Gods creation...but this is a different war to the one that saw him cast out of...

    What do you think about other religions?

    So let me get this straight... Moses wrote what is clearly a historical account...lots of it provable using ancient historical artifacts (lots of it not as well i get that), The prophet Isaiah, wrote according to secular dating methods, at least 700 years before Christ...so his prophecies...

    Fallen Angel and the Truth of God

    It is quite easy to link the war in heaven with the fall of man in Genesis and the story outlined at the start of the book of Job. It is very clear that this refers to the rebellion in heaven from which all of what we see around us today (ie sin) started. The entire plan of salvation is based on...

    Fallen Angel and the Truth of God

    sorry but that is a woeful theological position that is completely at odds with the reading of scripture. Christ created this earth, he was never below Lucifer(later known as Satan) The war in heaven was ancient...long before the incarnation...hence John the revelator called him, "that ancient...

    What do you think about other religions?

    I think that a distinction has to be made however, Christians are those who follow exclusively the Bible as their only source of authority. They do not give any other writing Divine inspiration. For this reason i think its not possible to reconcile groups who do not follow the Christian bible...

    What do you think about other religions?

    As is typical of JW theology, this is a gross misrepresentation and misinterpretation of scripture. Neither of the two references you have quote have anything to do with Christian denominations...there were not even different Christian denominations when these passages were written! (2...

    Could those angels who rebelled in heaven have received salvation?

    It is my belief that in the Sanctuary Service in the Bible, there was one day per year set aside for the cleansing process...The Day of Atonement. The final act of the festival which included this day, saw the Priest lay his hands on the scapegoat and transfer the responsibility for all sin onto...

    Fallen Angel and the Truth of God

    I think that when determining Biblical doctrine, one has to start out at the fringes and work ones way into the finer details of theology. This means look at the overall themes and work inwards. When one does that, it is not possible to come up with any kind of pagan interpretations. I am...

    Fallen Angel and the Truth of God

    What are you trying to claim here...that Christ was the fallen Angel or that the Devil will live happily ever after? Neither of these are biblical.

    Could those angels who rebelled in heaven have received salvation?

    I am not following what you mean?

    Could those angels who rebelled in heaven have received salvation?

    The problem with this idea that Salvation was not offered to angels who sided with Lucifer is: "God is love" 1John 4:7 I Corinthians 13: 4Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it...

    Could those angels who rebelled in heaven have received salvation?

    Rev 12: 7Then a war broke out in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon and his angels fought back. 8But the dragon was not strong enough, and no longer was any place found in heaven for him and his angels. 9And the great dragon was hurled down—that ancient...

    The Rebellion in Heaven, was it sin?

    I think also, note what James says... 1:5 Now if any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him. 6But he must ask in faith, without doubting, because he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the...

    The Rebellion in Heaven, was it sin?

    REv 12:7. Then a war broke out in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon and his angels fought back. 8But the dragon was not strong enough, and no longer was any place found in heaven for him and his angels. 9And the great dragon was hurled down—that ancient...

    What is the purpose of the Heavenly Sanctuary and When was it built?

    Backgound In Exodus we find Moses was told by God to build a tabernacle according to a specific plan given by God Ex 25:9You must make the tabernacle and design all its furnishings according to the pattern I show you. In the book of Hebrews, the apostle Paul states Heb 9: 11But when Christ...

    Why Didn't the Universe Always Exist?

    I find it absurd to entertain the idea that what I see around me came from a compressed "something" that was the size of, or smaller than, a marble! That is why I believe in a creator God. It's a lot more sensible than the exploding marble resulted in planets the size of Jupiter and sun's that...

    If God had no beginning what was before God?

    In the Bible, God says of Himself, "I am the alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end" Revelation 22:13 It would seem to me this O.P asks a question that it also answers!

    Revelation without Jesus?

    Is this a cry for theological help or simply an absurd way of discrediting the only written account of the nature of God and how it (Creation) turned to s@#t?
