    Differentiation between the light and the dark?

    You show a very imaginative approach to the interpretation of the Book of Revelation, One of many conflicting subjective stretch of interpretations that do not agree. None of the above is specifically predicted in the Book of Revelation.

    Differentiation between the light and the dark?

    Julius Caesar (Divus) was declared a god by the Senate, and he had absolute authority over the people for 42 months (Revelation 13:5), and after his assassination, his heirs inherited that role as Augustus Caesars. If he wanted someone dead, they were dead. That was the "reality" of the god...

    Differentiation between the light and the dark?

    Both these quotes are in the Bible, but why do you think they are interrelated or speaking about the same thing? Two different authors speaking at different times on different subjects.

    Differentiation between the light and the dark?

    There is a sin leading to death, and others that simply lead to disease, and a prolonged life where death is often prayed for. If one commits a sin not leading to death, and a righteous man prays to God for their forgiveness, then God can forgive that person and heal them (James 5:15-16)...

    Differentiation between the light and the dark?

    Ecclesiastes 3:18-20 I said in my heart with regard to the sons of men that God is testing them to show them that they are but beasts. For the fate of the sons of men and the fate of beasts is the same; as one dies, so dies the other. They all have the same breath, and man has no advantage over...

    Differentiation between the light and the dark?

    As explained in Exodus 20:12 & Ecclesiastes 7:17, the righteous do not die before their time, whereas the wicked will die before their allotted time. As for the righteous, they will eventually die sometime before the age of 120, yet be raised from the dead at the beginning of the millennium, to...

    If Jesus Died...

    96.Does every man sin? (a) Yes. “There is no man who does not sin” (I Kings 8:46; see also 2 Chronicles 6:36; Proverbs 20:9; Ecclesiastes 7:20; and I John 1:810) (b) No. True Christians cannot possibly sin, because they are the children of God. “Every one who believes that Jesus is the Christ...

    If there is a life after death.....

    Hello Mr. Sgt Pepper, In regard to the contradictions listed I only found one of the 101 that actually matters to our seeking to understand our responsibility in living for God, or Who God is. The others are simply recalling the same event or genealogy records, which by the way have been all...

    Nonsense

    That's not what Torah is. Quoting the text is not interpretation. How many times in world history has the majority been wrong? Your claim above is "flat-earth" thinking. It is inconsistent to pick and choose which verses are true or false, apparently by whim. If you apply that same...

    Where are the Dead?

    No... I, I don't think Abraham is talking to a rich man and Lazarus in that cave. :D - But that was a good one. Unless you think that all of this is happening in that cave: Ecclesiastes 7:14 ) . "God hath set the one over against the other", say F6, ``this is hell and paradise, what space is...

    Where are the Dead?

    Thank you for taking your time to answer. I still don't find in your comment anything proving that "Abraham's Bosom" is a literal place unless you refer to this place: Gen. 49:29 After that he gave these commands to them: “I am being gathered to my people. Bury me with my fathers in the cave...

    Where are the Dead?

    True... the conversation has been quite extensive and have covered some of those points... but don't mind covering them again. Also, please remember that the Bible isn't a compendium on all subjects but rather an overview of mankind (spiritual, mental and physical) of his beginning, current and...

    New Prophecies For The End Of The World 2023

    'The' world, or 'your' world ___________ Surprisingly Ecclesiastes 7:1 says the day of death is better than the day of birth. That may seem out of the ordinary but 'better' because of Resurrection Day - John 6:40,44; Acts 24:15 Resurrection Day meaning: Jesus' coming Millennium-Long Day of...

    If there is a hell, what percentage of humans should go there?

    Wrong place / wrong time like the twin towers at 9/11, or those at the tower of Siloam - Luke 13:4-5; Ecclesiastes 9:11. I like the advice found at Ecclesiastes 7:17

    Problem of Death is not solved. The one who will destroy Angel of Death will own the World.

    According to you and your faith. This would be correct. Not according to my faith. But I appreciate your perspective.

    Problem of Death is not solved. The one who will destroy Angel of Death will own the World.

    Because there will be a resurrection - Acts of the Apostles 24:15 - the change or transformation can be everlasting life. The unrighteous to become righteous and the righteous to remain righteous. That is why Ecclesiastes 7:1 B says the day of death is better than the day of birth. On...

    Is Paul arguing for ignorance of the law in Romans 7?

    I could also think that he was struggling to forgive himself. After all...at that time, there were also Pagans who used to practice abstinence and chastity. We don't know what Paul's life was like before his conversion...but we surely know, that as for Saint Stephen's martyrdom, he was in on it...

    Is Paul arguing for ignorance of the law in Romans 7?

    Yes. James also explains that God does not tempt anyone with evil things, James 1:13-15 but helps them endure trials and temptations they face in Satan's system of things. The law served to keep the nation of Israel clean before Jehovah, until the Messiah arrived who would teach them the way...

    Atheists - A Question...

    Why not? When you were in school, did you do both good and bad things? I see where you are going. The problem arises where you say Adam was good before the fall. I would say he didn't do bad things (up to that point) because he didn't have much opportunity. I see him as being innocent rather...

    Atheists - A Question...

    It's the pupil's nature to do good, and bad? Of course if the phone broke, and you didn't drop it, and the developers can see the glass isn't shattered, or a piece of it hasn't broken off. Or the paint isn't scratched... you might get a replacement. :) Who dropped Adam? Romans 5:12; 1...
