@Berean,

You are picking and choosing verses or parts of verses to support your religion. It’s like reading every other paragraph or starting in the middle of a book. You cannot possible hope to understand the story. We cannot use a “copy/paste” theology to understand what scripture is telling us! Thus your focus on a single part of a verse and s…[Read more]

@Berean,

We need to backup this bus, are you really saying Isa 63:2,3 is a reference to Jesus’ ministry!??!!?!? Read verse 1, who is being judge here? Edom is…again!! Who is Edom? Edom is Esau (Gen 36:8), the nation of Edom is from Esau, Esau is Jacob’s brother, the son of Isaac. If this reference of God’s vengeance on Edom is speaking of Chris…[Read more]

Here’s an argument by William Carpenter from the year 1885:

If the Earth were a globe, there certainly would be—if we could imagine the thing to be peopled all round—“antipodes:” “people who,” says the dictionary, “living exactly on the opposite side of the globe to ourselves, have their feet op…[Read more]

Hi folks,

Mike was banned unfairly.
I ask you all to show solidarity with Mike
by no longer posting on this forum.
But of course you are free to decide.

God bless you all,

Danny

@dannyd @berean

Ahhh, dabbs, you are getting it now. Berean missed the point.

There are three heavens.

This solves your waters above the stars problem.

So there is raqia between the water on the surface of our planet and in the sky as clouds that condense as rain and snow.

And then there are stars in the raqia which is probably the second…[Read more]

Hi Danny Dabbs

TELL ME, IF IT WAS SO IMPORTANT TO REALLY KNOW THE SHAPE OF THE EARTH, WHY JESUS DIDN’T GIVE US A LITTLE REMINDER: HEY FRIENDS, REMEMBER, THE EARTH IS….
GLOBE OR FLAT!

IS IT SO IMPORTANT TO ACHIEVE REPENTANCE AND BE SAVED TO KNOW IF THE EARTH IS A GLOBE OR SOME OTHERWISE?

Secret things belong to the Lord our God, but rev…

Yes, this would be the situation if people were living on a big ball.
It’s absurd and complete nonsense to believe that people are standing, ships are sailing and planes are flying upside down on certain parts of Earth while others tilted at 90 degrees and all other impossible angles.
Look at the following picture. It will help you to see…[Read more]

@berean

I think Mike has a point.

If you are going to take 6 x 24 hour creation days even before man and the sun were created, then you might as well go the whole hog and embrace the four corners of the world and Jesus coming back with a literal sword coming out of his mouth.

@berean

As a child of God, this should not be the MAIN topic. But RATHER THE GOSPEL OF CHRIST.

Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.(Rev.14:12)

I agree with you, Berean.
The gospel of Jesus Christ is the most important thing there is.

God bless

@berean

When people accept at face value what Genesis is teaching and accept the days as ordinary days, they will have no problem understanding what the rest of Genesis is all about.

Here is one contradiction with your view. There are many more.

These are the generations of the heavens and the earth when they were created, in the day that the…[Read more]

Ancient man or even men from centuries gone by have had less knowledge. One of the signs of the end times is the increase in knowledge and certainly today, we live in the information age.

Men then observe their world and understand scripture from their perspective. If I am in the train doing a continuous 100kmh without acceleration or…[Read more]

@Berean,

Thanks for your response.

I’m interested in how you reconcile your  your view of the two YHVHs do not form one God with these passages:

Deut 10:17

For Yahweh your God, he is God of gods, and Lord of lords, the great God, the mighty, and the awesome, who doesn’t respect persons, nor takes reward.

Deut 6:4 Hear, Israel: Yahweh is our…[Read more]

Proclaim, The world will be amazed that the beast will reappear,  (except the faithful)

And I saw one of his heads as it were WOUNDED TO DEATH; and his deadly wound was HEALED: and ALL THE WORLD WONDERED AFTER THE BEAST. (Rev.13: 3)

Do you think Islam will bring about such a comeback?
I do not believe it, on the other hand, the Papacy is on all…

Hey guys! and everyone else I didn’t mention,

Irenaeus wrote around AD 185 and mentions John 1:1 five times.
In one reference he comments, “‘and the Word was God,’ of course, for that which is begotten of God is God.”
Irenaeus understood Jesus as more than “a god” or a divine bein…[Read more]

John 1:1

@berean

If we inherit divine nature, do we become omniscient?

God knows everything because he is eternal and no one existed before God. There is nothing outside of God.

The Son was begotten of God.

Colossians 1:15-18
The Son is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For in him all things were created: things in heaven…[Read more]

@berean

All things were made by him(“THE WORD); and without him was not any thing made that was made.

Is this a contradiction then?

The Son is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For in Him all things were created, things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or a…[Read more]
