I've been sick with pneumonia this past week. Please pray that the antibiotics will do their stuff! I'm wheezing terribly, so much so that I cannot sleep. I certainly cannot concentrate enough to ponder things here, but I will try to read and catch-up some.Thanks for checking on me, Irene. Your prayers are precious to me.Mandy

Hmmmm I've never heard this before. I'll have to go back and read all of this again.Thanks, Nick. Hey bro, how are you feeling these days? I'm really glad that you are back with us.Mandy

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Feb. 01 2008,16:15)Hi not3, Wisdom is more to be sought than knowledge as it is the key to it.Of course even wisdom couldn't help our dear brother Solomon, could it?Jesus is the wisdom of God. Hmmm Good things to ponder!

Well, I think I'm on house number two now…… I guess eventually I'll get it right.

You mean the chicks that didn't have their oil lamps trimmed will endure the trib? How can this be since they are all long since dead? Will they be resurrected to endure the trib?

Nick says:Quote God blindsided the principalities and powers and put the faith of men through a crucible of fire.Most failed the test and most still do.What do you think this “crucible of fire” is? And why do most fail the test if they are seeking Him?t8 says:Quote Prophecy and scripture often speaks in a way so that the wicked will not…[Read more]

OK, this thread is amazing. And yes, thank you for keeping it on track. There is so much information here that currently I am totally overwhelmed (but in a good way). I've been really sick this week, but I'm still checking in and grabing bits and pieces from this thread!One thing that strikes me as I look at WJ's post, is that some of these…[Read more]

How do you think this happened to the poor girls? You say, “It is of some concern that fully half of them are lost.” How do you think it happened? Were they just not paying attention?

If it's the same story I'm thinking of – the sheep knew his voice. Hey Nick, how come your logged on as anon. these days? I used to like to log on and see your “light bulb” on above your Avatar. It made me feel like I wasn't the only one here!

Quote (942767 @ Jan. 30 2008,09:19)If you have seen the lives that have been transformed through faith in what God has done for them through Jesus, then God has already shown you the truth.When I was experiencing these life-changing testimony's, I was a Trinitarian. Does that mean that during that time God showed me the “truth” and I should go…[Read more]

Thanks, Irene.Some of the scriptures you have given to prove that Jesus was there – in the beginning – are hotly debated, you must know this? There are very good reasons to believe that Jesus did not preexist. I happen to believe that his existence began when he was given a “beginning” at his birth; in other words, he did not physically exist…[Read more]

Yes…..they knew his voice…..

Stu,I have read your tag line and had hoped that you would have had an explaination by now? I suppose that is a bit unfair to attach a warning to someone and then not tell them why. How will they know not to do the very thing that gave them the warning in the first place?Nick or t8, could you kindly tell Stu what he was warned about, if you…[Read more]

Still studying this, David.Thanks for continuing to add to this thread!Mandy

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Jan. 18 2008,07:05)Hi, Should we just trust in God's mercy for salvation?Better to follow Jesus.According to the NT, Jesus is the Way to Mercy.Mercy was not extended to the disobedient in the desert; they were taken by the sword of their brother at the LORD's command. It seems that today we can wander all we like in the…[Read more]

I quickly checked out the last site – are they Jews for Jesus?

Quote (Is 1:18 @ Jan. 29 2008,19:39)Quote (Not3in1 @ Jan. 28 2008,06:46)Thanks, Isaiah!I'm going to study everything you posted tonight (including the great link – thank you)!My main concern was that the prophesies did not speak of a second return upon which the Christ would fulfill these things.  I confess, that is confusing.Thanks again, I…[Read more]

Isaiah,My husband went through a fly fishing phase! I have to say it was quite a hoot watching him tie all those little flies and even more of a hoot to see him floating in an intertube far out in a lake! He loved it. I think he only gave it up because our son came along and he took on more business. Lately he's been talking about taking “his…[Read more]

Quote (david @ Jan. 29 2008,17:51)Basically, Mandy, I'm wondering what you think of Isaiah 53.Funny you should ask because I'm looking at it right now. I'll let you know what my thoughts are in a few days. Thanks for the post, David. I'll take another look at it tomorrow. We've been really busy here with our house remodel, but I've been…[Read more]
