2 Tim 2.11

It is a trustworthy statement

’ For if we died with him, we will also live with him.

If we endure , we will also reign with him;

If we deny him he will also deny us;

If we are faithless he remains faithful, for he cannot deny himself.’

’

It seems when folks do not grasp what is written they fill the gaps from their imagination and find plenty of support for falsehoods.

Thank you.

Rev 20 gives some light.

And he laid hold of the dragon, the serpent of old, , who is the devil and Satan and bound him for 1000 years; and he threw him into the abyss, and shut it and sealed it over him, so that he would not deceive the nations any longer, until the 1000 years were completed…

You

Since scriptural truth is established in the mouth of scriptural witnesses( 2 Cor 13.1)

we have few backup verses to establish the meaning of this verse as far as I know. 

….

Please offer your ideas.

Hi to all

THE BLESSING OF PAIN

Leprosy is an insidious disease that attacks the peripheral nerves, resulting in numbness and loss of pain sensors in the extremities. One of the common myths regarding leprosy is that it is the direct cause of the loss of fingers, toes, hands, feet, and occasionally even a…[Read more]

There are faults in every Bible. The NIV BLATANTLY adds to scripture.. In Jn 12 41 it adds JESUS, which did not come from any manuscript.

But knowing there are faults does not mean we are fit to be a judge of scripture.

That is right. And obviously, swear words are used sometimes when people speak evil.

But plenty of evil can be said without swear words too.

The question is not really about speaking evil, but using swear words.

More flat earth absurdity

Jesus was sent to the Jewish people and he explained the Law to them.

However he offered the kingdom to the rich young man who wanted more.

Sadly he was too enamoured with his money.

And without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who seek Him.

Heb 11.6

What hope do trinity believers have?

All things are lawful, but not all things are profitable.

1 Cor 10.23

Out of the mouth comes what the heart is full of.

All things are lawful, but not all things are profitable.

1 Cor 10.23

It is wonderful to be IN the faithful servant Jesus Christ and to know that he has filled all the requirements of God for us.

Of course Jesus saying “ your sins are forgiven” does not mean that Jesus has forgiven the sins but he is stating what God has done- God has wiped the conscience of the man clean just as He does for us in true baptism in…[Read more]

@Gene,

Have you read Isaiah Chapters 41-65 yet? Please read this section of Isaiah all the while paying attention to who the “servant” is. If you don’t we will continue to go in circles and I am not a fan of merry-go-rounds.

Using the handful of translations I use on a regular basis, KJV translates verse 2 in the future tense, while the other…[Read more]

You will never see written in the Bible that man is lord of the Sabbath because Jesus is lord of the Sabbath.
Only Jesus is Lord of the Sabbath and no wonder God created all things By Him and He alone can give us true rest.

Desire Truth…….It makes no difference if they are songs,  if you insist that 53 is about the nation of Israel, then it is your responsibility to show us how, or in what way it fits,  because I see no where in any scriptures where the nation of Israel, ever fit that description give there of a “suffering servant”,  that is punished for anyone…[Read more]

Explains the Trinity Doctrine well

To all…..Jesus said this (not me). …..“the Sabbath was made “for” man, not man for the Sabbath”.   So it stands to reason if Jesus is lord of the Sabbath, then so are we. We can use the Sabbath as we see fit, if we take  the Sabbath day rest our souls are refreshed, we are blessed , if we don’t,  it’s our lose.   God made it for us,  not us for…[Read more]
