    Clear Challenges to the Trinity Doctrine

    Drinking isn’t sexuality. Sexuality is a big part of one’s identity and psychological makeup/personality. People don’t need to “recover” from who they are. See above. Self-medication is a recognized, medical disorder. Human sexuality is not. Why would one avoid one’s sexuality? That, in...

    Clear Challenges to the Trinity Doctrine

    So what if anything do you believe in the Bible? It says God is love. What about the following, how do you see it? Jesus said, "But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, f but only the Father. 37As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming...

    Is Yahweh A Liar? Yes, He Is. I Can Prove It.

    The Son of Man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory was not slated to be Jesus, it was Baha’u’llah. I explained why it could not be Jesus on this thread: Who is the Son of man who will come in the clouds of heaven? Indeed, why would the risen Christ reappear in flesh...

    Is Yahweh A Liar? Yes, He Is. I Can Prove It.

    Clearly, it is not the corruptible Jesus that comes in glory, but the risen and glorified Son of Man. This only adds weight to the argument that it cannot be Baha'ullah, who was without question a 'flesh and blood' man. Why would the risen Christ reappear in flesh? Hebrews 9:27,28. 'And as it...

    Matthew 24:40-42 and Paying the Piedpiper

    The "wicked"/"tares are gathered "first" (Matthew 13:30 & 38-40 & 49), and the "angels" will do the gathering to cast them into the "furnace of fire". If they had known what is coming, they would have been prepared (Mt 24:43), but apparently they have the story 180 degrees out of alignment, and...

    Matthew 24:40-42 and Paying the Piedpiper

    As there was judgement in Noah's day - Matthew 24:37-39 - there will be judgement at the coming ' time of separation on Earth' as per Matthew 25:31-33,37,40. The figurative humble ' sheep ' will have a favorable judgement. The figurative haughty ' goats ' will have an adverse judgement. The...

    Matthew 24:40-42 and Paying the Piedpiper

    is matthew 24:40 about helping helping people or is it about judgment ? we know there is no rapture, so there's no one ''left behind'' as the rapture believers would like to believe happens to the abandoned ones. if they are given up on, where are they?? apparently still living ? is 24:40...

    ...and whose bodies but the bodies of the wicked dead - Jeremiah 25:33 This is in fullfillment of Revelation 19:17-18. The ones 'left 'are the 'abandoned ones' according to Matthew 24:40-41 The left ones are ' let go off ' ones. Like Noah, the ones taken are taken through the coming great...

    Matthew 24:40-42 and Paying the Piedpiper

    Although I'm as near to certain as I can be that it's not true, I think the idea of the Rapture is beguiling in the extreme: to wake up tomorrow and find all the fundies had gone, gee!

    Matthew 24:40-42 and Paying the Piedpiper

    The ones left are saved. The ones taken are apparently ... dead. Luke 17:37 And they answered and said unto him, Where, Lord? And he said unto them, Wheresoever the body is, thither will the eagles be gathered together.

    Matthew 24:40-42 and Paying the Piedpiper

    The dead in Christ (the body returns to dust and the spirit to God -though as asleep -knowing not the passage of time until resurrected) -will be raised first at the last trump -at the return of Christ -and the living in Christ will be caught up with them in the air.... and made immortal then...

    Matthew 24:40-42 and Paying the Piedpiper

    Thank you for your reply. I find Noah was taken. Taken to live on, Not killed. Taken to be saved/delivered/rescued through the Flood. Even today we can speak of a person being taken away to safety. Taken away to be protected. At the presence of the Son of man -Matthew 24:39 - like the people...

    Matthew 24:40-42 and Paying the Piedpiper

    I believe Matthew 24: 40-42 is talking about when the Romans came in the land of Israel. The Romans killed many people fulfilling the prophecy Jesus said in verses 40-42. In Matthew 22:7 Jesus says, " But the king was enraged, and he sent his armies and destroyed those murderers and set their...

    Matthew 24:40-42 and Paying the Piedpiper

    what makes you think its a rapture ?? its not speaking of rapture but of a passing of judgment. in this case, one taken means they are killed. the other is left to live on. AMP Bible "At that time two men will be in the field; one will be taken [for judgment] and one will be left."
