It seems everyone is…[Read more]

Quote (Wakeup @ June 16 2014,17:36)Jesus said: Who is my mother?Actually, he said “Who is my mother and who are my brothers?”He said this because the disciples told him his mother and brothers were there.Don't forget the “brothers” part, Wakeup.  You are trying to build a mystery about the “mother” part, but your mystery doesn't work when you incl…[Read more]

Col 1:19 For God was pleased to have all his fullness dwell in him,Enoch and Elijah are not Christ and cannot be…[Read more]

Quote (kerwin @ June 16 2014,12:27)Mike,Quote This point confuses me, because Solomon said the dead are conscious of nothing at all.  David and others taught that the dead can no longer worship God or praise Him.  (Psalm 6:5, 88:10, etc.)It is hard to understand as “dead” can be dead bodies, spiritually dead, those that have died the first d…[Read more]

For example, Wm………..Kerwin and I have looked to Enoch for help in our disagreements about Paul's meaning of “spiritual bodies” in 1 Cor 15, and about who the phrase “sons of God” referred to in Gen 1:6.The words in Enoch clearly supported my (and the majority) understanding of both of those Biblical teachings.  So in that way, I was able to…[Read more]

Quote (seekingtruth @ June 15 2014,18:48)My position on Enoch is, I will use it to add clarification on items brought out in scripture, I may even consider using some items from it if aligned with scripture to establish doctrine, but never establish doctrine in conflict to scripture.My opinion – WmWm,I was going to post the same basic thing…[Read more]

Quote (kerwin @ June 16 2014,00:16)None of us are born unless God decides we will be. The will of a man does not trump God's will unless God wills it.Agreed.

Yes, that one is already on the list on page 1.
