You: Apparently I am not suppose to be speaking on this topic, because neither of you are grasping what I am asking.

Me: I gave you a clear answer.

Hi to all

Here IS the Daily Devotional

 
FIRE FROM HEAVEN 
 

In Jesus’ day, the Samaritans were a large group. Through the years, wars such as the Third Samaritan Revolt and other calamities reduced their numbers a great deal. It is estimated that there are now just over 700 people remaining who are descended from the biblical Sa…[Read more]

@Proclaimer,
To say I “made some big leaps.” Careful how you tread; to discount what I have written is to say Rabbi’s are clueless and have no understanding of the Tanakh. You want to learn what we call the old testament, find a Rabbi who is teaching it and learn. Modern scholars are clueless in comparison, which is why we have the belief Isa 5…[Read more]

Hi Desiretruth.

You have made some big leaps in your last post.

Chapter 52 is addressed to God’s people the nation of Israel and in particular Jerusalem, but also Zion in the wider context.

1 Awake, awake; put on thy strength, O Zion; put on thy beautiful garments, O Jerusalem, the holy city: for henceforth there shall no more come into thee…[Read more]

Flat earthers see Globe believers as a threat. On the other hand ,given the well publicized evidence for a globe, Globe believers feel secure. Globe believers always ask for evidence that contradicts their beliefs, that’s how science works, question everything. To this day, no evidence had ever been put forward from a flat Earther? If this was a c…[Read more]

I answered you, maybe not as you wished, but it is so.

@Danny

Apparently I am not suppose to be speaking on this topic, because neither of you are grasping what I am asking. I asked my youngest child the same question I asked you Berean at the beginning and they picked up immediately the point I was going to make and I am extremely careful what I say to them at this point.

I am tired of…[Read more]

@desiretruth

What was written in the pamphlet that caused you to question the path you were on?

The gospel of Jesus Christ.

@desire Truth

If you have heard of Jesus and you accept him where do you end up?

Me

If I accept it and persevere until the end of my life or its return I will end up in the new earth where justice will dwell.

If you have heard of Jesus and you reject him where do you go? Is that better!

Me

If I definitely reject it, it’s the lake of fire…

@Danny,

My “conversion” was at a speaking engagement; but similar to yours.

What was written in the pamphlet that caused you to question the path you were on?

@desiretruth

@Danny,
Tell me why you became a “christian”? What was said that “opened” your eyes? Was it the possibility of not going to heaven?

I read a christian booklet. There I learned about the gospel.
I responded and accepted Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior.
What about you?

@Berean,

If you have heard of Jesus and you accept him where do you end up? If you have heard of Jesus and you reject him where do you go? Is that better!

Explain in a single sentence why you would choose one scenario over the other?

@ desire Truth

Your statement doesn’t answer the question of with/without Jesus and where you go.

There are people who have not known the person of Jesus and his teachings but as Paul says: “by nature do the things contained in the law, these, not having the law, are a law for themselves:
Who shows the work of the law written in their hearts,
I…[Read more]

Hi to all

Here IS the Daily Devotional

DOES A PERSON HAVE ANY ROLE AT ALL TO PLAY IN BECOMING RIGHTEOUS BY FAITH?

If you picture that salvation is a matter of simply saying a short prayer and then sitting around like a couch potato, you’re missing the point of what it means to be saved from sin. God wants to give us a new heart. This h…[Read more]

@Proclaimer,

If only verse 1 was talking about the unbelief of Israel, and being prefaced by “could be” tell me you’re not really sure yourself and are guessing. When was the last time you picked up a book, read a random paragraph from it, and where able to discuss what the book was about? My guess never, so why would you do that with God’s W…[Read more]

Who is this “our” in verse 5? You, me, mankind? EXCEPT verse 5 is the continued thought from verse 1 and “Who has believed our message”? This “our” is whom? Did you, me, or mankind bring some message and to whom did we give it? What was this message? What a perplexing mystery!

Let’s start in verse Isaiah verse 4.

Surely he hath borne our griefs,…[Read more]

PROCLAIMER: “Jesus is not mentioned by name in the Old Testament.”

DESIRETRUTH: THANK YOU!! Yet somehow he will be found in its writings by modern day “scholars.” And you don’t question this?!?!?

Thanks for what exactly? No one on planet earth believes that the name of Jesus is in the Old Testament. Jesus was not revealed to the world in the ti…[Read more]

Understanding God is crucial. Knowing God and His Messiah, Jesus, leads to eternal life. Here are five scriptural justifications for refusing to accept the doctrine of the Trinity.
