    Mark of the Beast

    It seems NCOT, that you (like others) are spooning out over issues totally unrelated to what we are discussing. I am NOT asking you to be Christian, am NOT asking you to believe in Christian Divinity, or that the texts were written with divine inspiration. I am not sue WHY you (and others)...

    Mark of the Beast

    I guess I would like to ask my question again, as it is gone unanswered twice now. IF techonology/government move to create a new monetary system that involves taking something in your right hand or forehead, would you take it? Regards to the greek, on or in, doesn't really matter to me. I am...

    Mark of the Beast

    The prophecy says 'mark in their right hand or forehead'. That denotes more than just holding money. Aside from that, if money IS the mark of the beast, then we are going to face the wrath of God and suffer eternal damnation. But, I don't think you believe that now do you?

    Mark of the Beast

    I simply said that the barcode and the 666 that appears on it, DOES have some connection to the prophecy. However, it is NOT the mark, so I don't have a problem buying an item with a barcode on it. The point I was making is that people somehow overlook the very OBVIOUS connection to the...

    Mark of the Beast

    There are two points in this quote that are significant. 1) Whether or not this coincidence is sinister, has nothing to do with the point. This has nothing to do with fear-mongering, and only seems to confuse the issues, when we start talking about being afraid. And 2), It DOES have...

    Mark of the Beast

    I was particularly interested in this comment, because it does look like you are allowing a personal dislike for something that sounds ''religious'' to cause you to overlook genuine evidence. You suggest that a cashless society could not be global because it sounds like 'Left-Behind'? Based...

    Mark of the Beast

    I have posted what I wrote again, as I realized there were a number of spelling mistakes which may have been confusing, and would alter what I was trying to share In the Revelation it speaks of a time when no one will be able to buy or sell without a mark in their right hand or in their...

    Mark of the Beast

    In the Revelation is speaks of a time when no one will be able to buy or sell without a mark in their right hand or in their forehead. Many people have theories about what this 'mark' will be or has been. Like I have shared before they range from theories about Emporer Nero, to social...

    "holy scriptures"

    Very true. Truth, light, words that point us to love and lessons to be learn't can be found anywhere. Even the drunk who shout's ''shit happens'' is speaking truth!

    "holy scriptures"

    I think for me what matters, whether it's OT, NT, Qu'ran, Book of Mormon, Budhist or whatever, what one needs to look for is truth. Each religion and each book contains it. I believe we should be trying to build upon the truth we know, and as such should always be open to more truth. I don't...

    HI IG, Thanks for writing. I can appreciate that you were not using flattery, but were, as you say, wanting to show appreciation for others comments. I am sorry for thinking that your appreciation was flattery. No, nothing came across as a personal attack towards me. The only thing I...

    Fair enough. You're entitled to your opinion.

    I guess in the end we will have to agree to disagree. I'm not saying that it was malicious flattery, or flattery in the 1st degree or anything like that, but I do think he was attempting to say something NICE about me, in order to make me feel more open to answering his questions. Perhaps IG...

    biblical phophecies

    I would hope we are hear to look for truth, not just opinion vs opinion (which is the basic feeling I got from IG's posts). With regards to maliciousness. I guess the confusion is that it is actually IG usuing the word 'malicious' in relation to me sharing that I associated his calling me...

    biblical phophecies

    I also put more weight on Jesus' teachings than on any other part of the bible, however, Revelation is to me, is very important, after all it's is a revelation to the servants of Jesus Christ. Did I say anywhere that I believe the Revelation to be the Word of God? I think you could probably...

    What's the beef with homosexuality?

    I wasn't raised a bible believer either, and I don't think all bible writers can be 'shoehorned' into one opinion. I agree that one reason why Jesus taught that it is better to be celibate, was because it is very easy to abuse others (and ourselves) by giving into basially free sex. I see Paul...

    What's the beef with homosexuality?

    Sorry, your right. Paul said, if one cannot be single then it is better to marry than to burn with lust. However, he was basically echoing what Jesus said. Which is why I just left my sentence how I had it. Jesus said that man cannot remarry. His disciples said, ''if that be the case with man...

    My, my, a lot of questions... Considering you have stated that you the book of Revelation is 'riduclous', and that it should have 'been left out of the bible', I can't see how me answering your questions about a book that a: you find ridiculous, and b; one you think should not even BE in the...

    Reliions What about the bridge between all the religions?

    I think people need a bigger vision than religion, we need to look for truth, and Truth with a captial T. Truth exists in every religion, in every man, woman and child, and exists 'out there' beyond any of our current understanding. We can either seek truth and change accordingly, or we will...
