Goliath wasn't a Nephilim.
He was a giant from the city of Gath, champion of the Philistine army.
Goliath towered to the extraordinary height of 2.9m or 9.5ft.
Goliath may have been a mercenary soldier with the Philistine army.
The bible says all Nephilims were destroied during the flood and...
Wow, Wikipedia has all answers....almost !
Now that we know that Armageddon referes to the end of the world scenario (as wikipedia says), can we get a neutral position in this war?
Maybe 2nd Thessalonians 1:8 and Matthew 12:30 are something we can think about?
The bible does not give specific instruction on how to position yourself when praying.
I think that if you are a mature lady suffering from arthritis and cannot bend down or unfortunately paralized in some way, God will listen to your prayer even if you are lying in bed or sitting in a...
I will go for the "Mountain of Megiddo" explanation...however the Armageddon referred to in the Bible is a little different.
Below is the fruit of some research I did on this matter:
A prophecy in the bible talks about " and they go forth to the kings of the entire inhabited earth, to gather...
I personally don't believe the bible is just a book of stories, but really inspired by God, for the following reasons:
*Bible prophecy explains the meaning of world conditions
Many world leaders acknowledge that mankind is on the brink of disaster. The Bible foretold these conditions long ago...
Marriage is made to last forever, so if a couple decide to divorce, yes it's a failed marriage!
Of course marriage is two way arrangement, and if both husband and wife are not willing to work hard to make the marriage a happy one, better not get married at all!
Many people think it's hell, I am getting so many answers to this thread.
All answers are different and interesting! So glad to communicate with smart people on this site :)
Totally agree!!!
If you need to talk to the doctor about a really important issue and he is just there next door waiting for the next patient, why would you want to speak to his temp secretary who does not know anything about health or medication?
See ya!
Hello again,
What I really meant is the Memorial itself, the "Lord's Evening Meal" not what they were celebrating that night. Sorry I wasn't too claer :(
The Memorial calls special attention to the significance of the death of Jesus Christ in the outworking of God’s purpose. It...
Interesting thread :)
I am of the opinion that dressed or undressed, sexy or just pretty, young or old, anyone can become subject of the attentions of a pervert (of course the young ones need more protection).
However I think if something happens to my child I am the one that's going to cry, so...
Hi Everyone :)
We are closer to the month of April and the biggest event of the year is coming up soon....The memorial of the Lord's evening meal.
Following the Jewish calendar the 14th Nisan will be on the 5th April after sunset.
It's the only event that Jesus commanded us to celebrate...
At Matthew 10:28, Jesus warned his hearers to “be in fear of him that can destroy both soul and body in Gehenna.” What does it mean? Notice that there is no mention here of torment in the fires of Gehenna; rather, he says to ‘fear him that can destroy in Gehenna.’ By...
Many people ask the same question, Jesus was sent to earth for a reason. One of these reasons was to prove that humans can remain faithful to God to the point of torture and death. Jesus's task was to come to earth in a humble household and go through life as a human, therefore experiencing...
God does not authorize men to forgive sins against him; only he can do so. The Bible tells us clearly: “If we confess our sins, [God] is faithful and righteous so as to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” (1 John 1:9)
Since forgiveness can come only...
Well, I found the following scriptures to be interesting and reveiling:
Jesus said: "You should pray like this: 'Our Father in heaven.....'" (Matthew 6:9). He also said: "I am the Way, the Truth and the Life. No one can come to the Father except through me.....if you ask anything in my name, I...
If I go to the bank and ask to open an account to the guy at the front counter, he will direct me to someone else at the Service desk. Why???? because it's not his job to open new accounts!!!
What is the role of the saints? are they there to listen to our prayers? Is God not powerful enought to...
According to the Bible itself, about 40 men from diverse walks of life shared in writing the rest of the Scriptures, resulting in the collection of the 66 books, or subdivisions, of the Bible. However, these men did not consider themselves to be the real authors of the Bible. One of them said...
Naaaa I don't think so...
There is no literal Mountain of Megiddo; only a mound about 70 feet (21 m) high where ruins of ancient Megiddo are found.
The bible talks of "the entire inhabited earth" will be involved.
The kings and military forces of the entire inhabited earth could not fit...
