    Reaping the effects of rejecting Yahweh’s Word

    The impact of philosophical derivation in theology, theocracy and linguistics has distorted the interpretation of Yahweh's word. For example, Yahweh and Yahshua are themselves Hebrew names. Names are always translated. The English being Jehovah and Jesus. Elohim is a Hebrew word; plural, it...

    Does your God have a God?

    Christianity and Islam derive from Judaism. Jews were originally polytheists, then dropped many Gods to worship just one. Was it edited with divine authority or edited by some human? The fact that other Gods were written out of the bible, might question the validity of the edited bible. The...

    "God is Dead"

    My favorite scene in that film might be the religious teachers who are preaching and dictating revelation on the street side as well as the song in the end. 1. ttps://youtu.be/hmyuE0NpNgE 2. ttps://youtu.be/SJUhlRoBL8M The video depicting so many people as "crucified" reminds me of this song...

    A dialogue about Prophecy & doctrines between the WTS/JW & Seventh-day Adventist

    Good, I want to look at this word "tree" a bit, ok, and show that it too in the natural, and in scripture shows the "cross": The “tree”, as a whole itself, is made up of “sticks” [Hebrew: H6086, same as the word “tree” in Deuteronomy 21:22,23], see Numbers 15:32,33: Numbers 15:32 - And while...

    Jesus is not God Almighty Himself

    I don't know why you took all that time to put in what I have already said. This info as stated does not change the fact that humans do not become gods. Not even in Tanakh. Ask our Jewish members. Christians are mistranslating the texts and causing confusion. They know what the correct...

    Jesus is not God Almighty Himself

    I think there is a misunderstanding here. I am not saying Moses transformed into a divine being. I understand god to mean mighty one. It doesn't mean that one changes form. A human can be considered a god, but that does not mean they gain some miraculous power. I don't have a problem if you...

    What Is The Difference Between HELL And THE LAKE OF FIRE?

    I believe you should but then you should remember that Jews don't bury their dead in fire or in a garbage dump. I believe what I am pointing out is that Hell is an English word used in translating and in many cases it is misused as you have pointed out because it does not mean the grave in...

    What Is The Difference Between HELL And THE LAKE OF FIRE?

    Muffled, Thanks for your reply. Regarding the Norse Mythology.... When I was younger I remembered a teacher that stated that Mythology was an extended version of Myths, but he really struggled as he researched it, and found that there were some people that played out these things in reality...

    Its hard to take scriptures serious with verses like these

    The Number 1 Funniest Bible Verse is: God can be a real pain in the rear! 1 Samuel 5:9. The hand of the LORD was against the city with a very great destruction; and He smote the men of the city, both small and great, and they had hemorrhoids in their secret parts. – 1 Samuel 5:9 21st Century...

    Do humans have a spirit?

    Again, it does not matter how long had David been gone but, because of God's promise that his Tribe aka Judah would remain as a Lamp in Jerusalem forever for the sake of David according to I Kings 11:36, there is no distinction between the use of David and Judah as both mean the same.

    Do humans have a spirit?

    Once again reading Psalms 78:67-70 out of context. Look at vs 71. It clearly refers to 1 Samuel 16:11-13, when David was chosen as king over Judah and later over all of Israel (2 Samuel 5:4-5). This is confirmed when Psalms 78 is read in its contextual enumeration. When Ezekiel 37 was...

    Gospel founded in Revelation

    Revelation was written LONG after Jesus was dead - and is nothing more than later people writing their thoughts about previous Bible Books, and what they thought they meant, and what they thought was coming. * *.

    Gospel founded in Revelation

    Drivel, driven more by biased apologetic than credible exegesis. Not buying it.

    Gospel founded in Revelation

    What you need to hear, not what you want to hear The great commission is symbolized in the book of revelation, with three angels. Angels meaning messengers, and angels representing super nautrual power attending the message. In revelation 14:6 two points are stressed. 1) it is the...

    Genesis 1:26

    Genesis 1:26: lets see what the meaning of "Our Image" "Our likeness" The Likeness of God is not of the physical appearance, but rather having the knowledge of Good and Evil. This is clearly stated in Bible "..And you will be like Gods(Elohim), knowing(plural) good and Evil" [Genesis...

    Why Elohim?

    The plural form of the noun here in Hebrew is the plural of majesty or excellence. (See NAB, St. Joseph Edition, Bible Dictionary, p. 330; also, New Catholic Encyclopedia, 1967, Vol. V, p. 287.) It conveys no thought of plurality of persons within a godhead. The title ’Elo·him´ draws attention...

    Do you think God has a sense of humor?

    I always thought this passage showed God's humor. For those who don't know the background here, the Philistines captured the Ark of the Covenant because the Israelites were treating it like a good luck charm as though it was the Ark itself that had the power, so God let the Philistines capture...

    Why is homosexuality a sin

    Landover is a fake church there not even really, if you read the Terms and Services you'll see in there. I'm on the site just too see how messed up people can be. The're a parody.

    Why is homosexuality a sin

    Actually you should be more concerned about the bible's admonishments about straight sex. I think too many Christians get on the 'gay bashing' wagon to hide their adultery, fornication, lascivious thoughts etc. Here is an interesting article about what the bible would look like if all reference...
