Yes, due to un-due pride satan fell from holiness - Ezekiel 28:13-17
After being released from the pit/abyss - Rev. 20:3,7-8 - satan will act again but for the last time.
Then satan ends up in that symbolic ' fiery lake ' defined as 'second death ' Rev. 20:13-14; Rev. 21:8
Permanent death aka...
Sure .. a plausible explanation based on pre-existence .. and indeed Jesus always refers to God as someone other than himself but, what is the name of this God that we are to pray to "Hallowed be thy NAME"
and such language matters .. while may mean nothint to modern day Christian .. it...
It's an interesting subject about Melchizedek. Reading more about this, Genesis 14 further says:
"17After Abram returned from his victory over Kedorlaomer and all his allies, the king of Sodom went out to meet him in the valley of Shaveh (that is, the King’s Valley)."
(More about Abram...and...
Thank you for your reply.
I find at Hebrews 7:3 being in connection to Hebrews 7:1 Melchizedek.
Melchizedek was both King and High Priest.
There is No mention of Melchizedek's parents but we know he had parents.
There is mention of Jesus' parents both heavenly and earthly.
Thus, Jesus as Son of...
Yes. It truly is wonderful to understand more about the Bible and Jesus. I would go to church, hear the sermons, but never understood why Jesus had to die. Now I do. It makes sense. Now. I do like the scripture very much where Jesus said "The Father is greater than I am."
John 14:28 - "You...
I understand a little, but I keep searching the scriptures until I can find agreement, if possible complete harmony trying to get God's Spirit inspired Direction and advice. Then most all the scriptures seem to make better sense.
1 Corinthians 1:10 I appeal to you, brothers and sisters, in the...
Adam, the very first time God commanded any form of Sabbath observance was when Israelites were to gather more manna on friday, and not gather manna on saturday. There is literally no time where God commands a Gentile to rest on the Sabbath. Furthermore, God says that the reason we are to...
Can i just raise an observation here...so many people harp on about the Sabbath being an Israelite-only Mosaic Law (along with the rest of the commandments).
The bible calls "saints" found in Revelation 14:12 "Spiritual Israel". When the gospel was given to the Gentiles (which in modern day...
Paul and Mark are not independent. There are dozens of examples of Mark's use of the Epistles. A few are here.
The principal works to consult on this (all of which from peer reviewed academic presses) are:
Michael Bird & Joel Willitts, Paul and the Gospels: Christologies, Conflicts and...
Listen and LEARN, Luke was called of God also to preach the gospel. so, are you saying God call of our brother Luke was a lie? Acts 16:7 "After they were come to Mysia, they assayed to go into Bithynia: but the Spirit suffered them not." Acts 16:8 "And they passing by Mysia came down to Troas."...
It is an assumption that Acts was written by Luke, who confessed that he was scribe writing down other people's accounts, and not a first-person witness of anything (Luke 1:1-2) According to Acts, Paul was quoted by the author of Acts. You base your "personal opinion" on other people's...
The woman Bishop. Romans16:3 "Greet Priscilla and Aquila my helpers in Christ Jesus:" the Greek term "Helper is,

Ans: a pre-existent heavenly creation that is capable of dying is: Sinner Satan
Everlasting life was never offered to sinner angels.
Jesus will destroy Satan - Hebrews 2:14 B

According to the scriptures a day is from sunset to sunset. A day in the scripture is not eternal. see Genesis 1:1-31
Lets be honest Kenny. There is no scripture in Romans 14 or the book of Romans that says Romans 14 is talking about Gods 4th commandment.
SOME POINTS TO CONSIDER IN ROMANS...
I agree with, and teach the scriptures.
(1 Corinthians 1:10) Now I urge you, brothers, through the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you should all speak in agreement and that there should be no divisions among you, but that you may be completely united in the same mind and in the same line of...
Since the thread is titled "Truths in Scripture", this is the right thread to discuss whether made up things has any basis at all, as opposed to scripture. Especially if one claims to accept scripture.
What's a fundamentalist to you? I hear that applied to so many things, in the same way people...
I made up the term, but I don't want to derail the thread. I think scripture teaches not to be fundamentalists; but I think discussions about and from the bible scriptures are important ones to have. I also have a grim view of the preacher-congregation model. Its a different topic though.
I'm...
And it would be impossible for God to make physical things like humans and animals unable to suffer, that is simply not part of his powers?
I always find it kind of funny with the limitations that religious people assign to God whenever needed. I honestly think that atheists show more respect...
The reason no one suffers in a physical way, is because those in heaven are not physical.
However, there is was emotional disturbance in heaven. - Revelation 12:10
There was also evil in heaven, before it was removed.
Revelation 12:1-12
That too took time, but it happened.
This is the same...
One of the things that makes studying the sages so interesting is beginning to see how they hide what's really bothering them in the way they exegete the text. The example you point out is a case in point. The word באוצרותי "guarded things in my treasury" is not only interesting in that it seems...
