    Understanding the holy scriptures is impossible unless God gives you the interpretation

    There is no point for you to write the whole story from Acts here. I have read it a few times. The people in Asia who abandoned Paul were of course Christians because deserting him implies that they were once loyal and friendly to him and had some kind of relationship with Paul. Therefore this...

    One God or many gods

    Please refrain from quoting Paul .. in relation to anything of the spirit .. as Paul was not of the spirit .. Paul is not "The Logos" .. who spoke Gods word through the Holy Spirit .. so let us not usurp the position of Jesus .. substituting the words of Paul . nor is the Devil of Paul...

    Understanding the holy scriptures is impossible unless God gives you the interpretation

    1. The apostle "Luke" tells us in the book of Acts (Luke wrote Acts), that Paul was rejected by the local town silver smith rustling up a riot to attempt to support his business in making idols for worship of pagan Gods (specifically Artemis) then later by the local Jews during his second visit...

    One God or many gods

    Yes, Satan is a 'god' the 'god' of this world of badness according to 2nd Corinthians 4:4 Satan is the ruler of this world - John 14:30; Ephesians 2:2; 1st John 5:19 Remember 'god/ God' is a title and Not a proper name for the God of the Bible YHWH. Since Satan came from the divine heavens then...

    Why do christianity get so much hate?

    No. Not saying Bible conscience is in everyone that the Bible is true. Rather, the people of the nations who do Not have the Law ( can include the Law of Christ - Galatians 6:2; John 13:34-35) do by nature the things of the law ...... - see Romans 2:14-15. The Bible gives supplementary...

    If science proves that non-local consciousness is real how does that change your understanding

    I have always thought of spirit in a material way, just not something we can see - a form of energy, yes, but nothing we know of. I remember, years ago, telling someone how we are all connect to this "energy", but there are two different kinds, from two different sources, with two different...

    If science proves that non-local consciousness is real how does that change your understanding

    I believe this is a good direction for Christians to meditate on. I see Spirit as Electromagnetism/Energy mixed with Electronic Communication and Consciousness. Our Spirit has always existed and will continue to exist. It is the part of us that is indestructible. Ephesians 2:2 "Wherein in...

    If science proves that non-local consciousness is real how does that change your understanding

    What if we are only now understanding spirit in a "physical" or "material" way. Ephesians 2:2; 1 Corinthians 2:12

    Four Faces of Ezekiel's Living Creatures vs. Four Forces of Nature

    "He had horns coming out of his hand; which the Jewish interpreters understand of Moses having horns or beams of light and glory from the hand and power of God, when he conversed with him on the mount, and the skin of his face shone"...

    There is no evidence for God, so why do you believe?

    That is a modern reading, changing the meaning. In the religion Jesus believed in the devil. Jesus exorcized demons out of pigs as well. He believed the demonology of the day. In the story they are real. But it's a story and like revelations are not actually true. No matter who makes the claim...

    Why is this world out of control?

    Hi Revelation 21:4. Good afternoon. You are right of course. The mighty one of this world is indeed Satan and the spirit which the children of disobedience have is different from the spirit that comes through obedience (Ephesians 2:2). People want to blame natural catastrophes on global warming...

    When did God tell the Israelites that He was three persons?

    I’m not sure what you are asking from me. I really don’t know what you are on about? My point, if that’s what we are talking about, is that trinitarian Christian claim that the verse (Sh’ma… Shema…) proves that God (El) is a trinity of persons. I say that the claim is wholly invalid and even...

    When did God tell the Israelites that He was three persons?

    In response to your emotion I have done a search and found something like what you're talking about, but I've never heard anyone try to make this sort of argument, truly. I haven't been hiding. Which must be frustrating, but what I'm saying is you have adopted their usage 'God' in the Sh'ma...

    Common ground.

    It's part of our built in nature to love one another. The Bible terms it, "natural affection"... which is lacking greatly today, because of the spirit of the world - its influence, which is in opposition to man's true nature (overridden of course, like a virus that has corrupted a file on your...

    There is no evidence for God, so why do you believe?

    1. Do you think anyone who disagrees with the bible is being influenced by demons? Your post suggested you did. Answer is yes because I’ve already given you Ephesians 2 2. If you do then you must either agree with the appalling endorsement of slavery in Exodus 21, or by your own rationale are...

    I need Jehovah's Witnesses feed back.Because I always think I am interpreting it right.But am wrong.

    I feel like Jesus at this point. (Mark 8:11, 12) 11 Here the Pharisees came out and started disputing with him, seeking from him a sign from heaven, to put him to the test. 12 So he groaned deeply with his spirit, and said. . . Brian, if you notice, the above, there are many hopes, not just...

    Hope for things which are not seen.

    I find Satan misleads the entire inhabited Earth - Revelation 12:9; Revelation 12:12; Ephesians 2:2; 1 John 5:19. However, Satan being the 'god of this world' ( 2 Corinthians 4:4 ) comes to his final end. Jesus will destroy Satan - Hebrews 2:14 B

    Do you practice what the bible says?

    Not all of those passage use wordly in the same context and manner. The first three quotes refer to wordly as in "of the this world" or material; in the case of the second passage, it's presented as a euphemism for reasoned argument and a call to fall on dogma alone as to avoid being led astray...

    Do you practice what the bible says?

    Like I said, 'wordly' is a common term within theological circles, therefore, in this context, it is you who does not comprehend the meaning. Possibly you cannot be blamed for not being familiar with such principles or terms, since it is not your area of expertise nor interest. 1 Timothy 4:7...

    Do all paths lead to God? No is the answer

    The Bible teaches the worship of only one God. Jehovah is the Almighty God, the only true God, the Creator. As such, he requires exclusive devotion sharing his glory with no one. (Isaiah 42:8) (Exodus 34:14) (Revelation 4:11) Jesus rendered exclusive devotion and worship to his Father...
