Luke 10.
25And behold, a lawyer stood up to put him to the test, saying, “Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?” 26He said to him, “What is written in the Law? How do you read it?” 27And he answered, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind, and your…[Read more]

Matthew 25
The Final Judgment
31“When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, then he will sit on his glorious throne. 32Before him will be gathered all the nations, and he will separate people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. 33And he will place the sheep on his right, but the goats on t…[Read more]

Hi Marty. You asked:

 

But what about the following scriptures, what does this mean?

Revelation 11King James Version (KJV)

11 And there was given me a reed like unto a rod: and the angel stood, saying, Rise, and measure the temple of God, and the altar, and them that worship therein.

2 But the court which is without the temple leave out, and…

Malachi 4.

1a “Behold, the day is coming, burning like an oven, when all the arrogant and all evildoers will be stubble. The day that is coming shall set them ablaze, says the Lord of hosts, so that it will leave them neither root nor branch. 2But for you who fear my name, the sun of righteousness shall rise with healing in its wings. You shall g…[Read more]

Hi Miia,

My bible says that we are judged by what we say and what we do.

Where does it say we are judged by what we think?

Where does the bible say we are judged on what we think?

I can think of two places:

“The word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints…[Read more]

When it tells people to behead and kill Christians and Jews, it is telling them this now because they have not accepted Allah and his prophet etc.

I have not seen that in the Quran, because I have not read the Quran. I only studied their religion/ people.

Jesus taught that we should love one another in contrary to the Law and an eye for an eye.…

You asked what I learned with Islam.

I saw people who stopped whatever they were doing, wherever they were, get on their knees and pray throughout the day.

I saw people who refused to drink wine and eat pork, even if they were forced to in camps like Guantanamo.

I learned that Mohammad did not like pictures/ images.

I learned to treat…[Read more]

it is not the temple of God, and so, I believe based on the later chapters of Ezekiel, that the Jews who do not believe that Jesus is the Messiah will rebuild the temple, and this is the temple to which 2 Thes 2 is referring.

Hi Marty,

Why would Paul call the Temple of God an earthly building when it was no longer so?

It has to be the body of…[Read more]

Mila…… You have it right, it is about the “true temple of God,” not some pagan world temple.

peace and love to you and yours………gene

Gene, we’re getting close.

The man of sin would not be in the heavenly temple, (that’s impossible).

The temple (where it IS possible for the man of sin to be), is the body of believers. “Know ye not the body is t…[Read more]

The Rechabites of Jeremiah 35 is not about islam – did you somehow think that it was?

Yes, because God showed me similarities, and how Christianity has failed in some ways.

“And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image,
and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, The same sha…

Miia,

You are correct to believe some misinterpret Scripture in an effort to justify their sins. The Spirit is given to justify the believe not their sins.

Thank you Kerwin.

Kerwin, you said:

anyone who claims Jesus is not presently in the flesh is contradicting John’s claim.

Could that mean: “For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, 36 I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was i…[Read more]

There’s no problem if people just believe what Jesus said.

Thanks t8.

Revelation 21:2-4
1 Then I saw “a new heaven and a new earth,” for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. 2 I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband.3 And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Look!…

So, Ed……… Just because Paul does not mention (much), it means (to you) that what Jesus and Peter said is not true? So, you prefer Paul (‘s non mention) over Jesus and Peter?

1st Peter 3.

For Christ also died for sins once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh but made alive in the spirit;
in which he went and preached to the spirits in prison,
who formerly did not obey, when God’s patience waited in the days of Noah, during the building of the…[Read more]
