It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God" (Mark 10:25). Had I not just researched this for another study I may have skipped this thread. I have no doubt in Gods power to save rich poor big or little. I would like to...

Good to see old friends still hanging in :)

Wow stepped into one here Let me first briefly say that this will unless I mention an author be my own thoughts and not those of Jim Merrit (I will get to him later) 1. The Bible isnt. I could read Jimmy Buffet's Tales from Margritta Ville and build a religion. The Bible without the Spirit...

long ago a friend handed me two little books and said i need to read them by Bishop K. C. Pillai Orientalisms of the Bible Orientalisms of the bible 1&2 great books lots to think about and study Prior to this he had written The Light Through an Eastern Window. I have not had the pleasure...

I have a very close relationship with Christ so I don’t fear being lead away. If I happen to be for a time He has promised He will leave the 99 and come find me. (His sheep am I) Our bibles we use today are compiled letters books and scrolls written and re-written 100's of time or more and...

Thanks for the wiki using several meannings one could say for this I was not harmed (I couldnt see that as being the meaning) for this I was held in reserve (possible) written by Bishop K. C. Pillai, Light I hope on that usage of the word Spared Thanks

This verse has always driven me. It has lead me down seldom traveled paths. And brought me back again. I love it then more I study the closer I feel to __________ fill in the blank. Or maybe that should read the more I study the closer ________ feels to me. Last night I ordered the Lamsa...

I dont want to offend anyone on this issue so I am going to try to be gentle. I myself observe the Lords supper on the passover. And thats it thats all. I am also a sabbath keeping Christian. Now how I came to these conclusions is I decided to search the Bible only for my faith and not follow...

Ok just going to say this Easter on the day and the way we celebrate it from the bunnies to the eggs. Christmas and trees and the day we celebrate it they all come from a god by the name of tammuz. I think they got tied into Christianity through roman soldiers who were into mithraism and...

LOL I really like the way you put this in question what does it mean to me. I have often looked at Revelations as one of the curosity of the Bible. I am not certian on this but would be willing to bet it was added because the translators where sure they understood it. I am not saying it doesnt...

1co 8:13 Wherefore, if meat make my brother to offend, I will eat no flesh while the world standeth, lest I make my brother to offend. Think this kind of sums it up. I am a meat eater but if you arent I would night invite you to dinner and serve steak. :D We have a responsibility to respect...

I use a KJV rainbow study bible tho the rainbow colors often only serve to help me remember what page or column the verse is in. And several different versions on my computer. That and a strongs makes for easy in depth study. One of the greatest things about my Bible is the use of italics...

I go back to Solomon saying there is nothing new under the sun :D History does and will continue to repeat itself.

While this is in part true I was reading and part of the land of canaan was given to surviving daughters to continue there fathers line and his inheritence. This is very important because it shows there is not a chiseled in stone way of determining lineage but rather one that special...

A quick question How close where the children of Israel to the Kingdom of God when they first went into Canaan? They relied on God for every need. They followed the Law to the letter. They had no earthly king. Until those requirements where met they did not get into the promised land...

Here is a theory Maybe J T B had been beatin so severely he was suffering from brain damage and lost his memory??? We could go on and on and on. Your right Didymus the facts are that there is a discrepancy between four men who wrote four versions from four different views at four different...

This is an issue that would be hard to address if we where talking about a God with limits. But we are not. God created the reproductive organs of both man and woman why than would we doubt His ability to manipulate this one woman this one time. I would not say it was a sexual act. As far...

Just a couple quick questions If God in the old testament said something would stand forever. Would Jesus have had the authority or would he have changed it? I personally dont like the idea of God changing or His word changing but would like to see how everybody else views it.

LOL ok ok I admit it Jesus was a Jew. What do you think of this verse. Ro 2:14 For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves: Ro 2:15 Which show the work of the law written in their hearts...

Judgement and condemnation are such dirty words in Christianity. (and people know it) Every time I post something I know it will be judged by all who read it. I know it will be condemmed by some. Truthseeker you have asked a very good question. Without sounding what I feel is judgemental but...
