Hi Mike,

Heb 11.1

Now FAITH is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things NOT SEEN.

For by it the men of old gained approval.

But you ask that we deeply trust the evidence of our eyes?

Oops,

I said Is 44.

But it is Is 34.4

And all the hosts of heaven will wear away, and the sky will be rolled up like a scroll;

All their hosts will also wither away as a leaf withers from the vine, or as one withers from a fig tree.

Compare Is 24.19f

The earth is broken asunder, the earth is split through, the earth is shaken violently.

Hi Mike,

If you cannot define FIRMAMENT but ask what we think it sounds like, how can we take you seriously?

Should we put absolute faith in what our eyes see?

But we are still listening.

Hi Mike,

If the current secular model is found to be

consistent with the teaching of scripture

would it shatter your faith in God.?

Hi Mike,

Where is the earth flat enough for someone with perfect vision

to be able to testify about details seen a mile away?

Hi Mike,

Is literalism a form of legalism?

Hi Mike,

I am the living bread that came down out of heaven; if anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever; and the bread also which I will give for the life of the world is my flesh.Jn 6.51

Taken literally this was unpalatable to most of the listeners.

It is a spiritual statement about the essential food of the living Word.

So God is…[Read more]

Hi Mike,

What does a FIRMAMENT sound like to you?

Should we decide on the meaning?

Does everything in scripture have to be literally true to be truth?

Is God allowed to describe things as man would see them rather than as actual reality?

The sky scrolling upwards (Is 44) or stars being seen to be falling cannot just be just…[Read more]

Hi LU,

You say

”In order to be born one must exist beforehand”

Yes most people exist for up to nine months before their birth.

What deep spiritual understanding have you come to by making this statement?

You say

”Jesus is active as the word of God before his birth”

The Spirit is eternal and in the one Spirit is the Spirit of the Son.

Hi LU,

At the start of this thread your posts are full of the words of the so called church fathers.

Their thoughts are the of the world and their reliance on reasoning led men away from truth.

What miracles are attributed to them? What fruit did they produce? They led the great apostasy.

Nothing written since the apostles can be…[Read more]

Hi LU,

Scripture is spiritual and speaks of the Spirit of Christ.

Flesh was made of the soil of created earth.

Flesh contributes nothing. Jn 6.63

Hi Mike,

Welcome back.

It depends on definitions.

Do you know of the biblical definitions of

FOUNDATIONS, PILLARS, CHANNELS, CORNERS, THE DEEP, FIRMAMENT etc?

Without forming such a foundation we are not able to build anything.

Belief is amazing. I realise that a zealot is unable to be unconvinced by men.

Hi,

As matt 13 47-50 shows is that there s no room for complacency in the Body of Christ.

Ask, seek and knock to ensure our election by God.

2peter.1

Hi,

Acts 10.38

You know of Jesus of Nazareth, how God anointed him with the Holy Spirit and with power,

and how he went about doing good and healing those who were oppressed by the devil,

for God was with him.

Jesus of Nazareth was anointed,

not the embryo nor the infant.

Hi,

Trinity denies that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.

The foundation of faith.

Hi,

The rock that the church is built on is the Spirit of Christ.

1 Cor 10

For I do not want you to be unaware, brethren, that our fathers were all under the cloud and all passed through the sea; and all were baptised into Moses in the cloud and in the sea, and they all ate the same spiritual food; and all drank the same spiritual drink , for…[Read more]

Hi T8,

I know you get anxious when you fear you are losing control but relax.

There is a God and He is working among the brothers.

Hi T8,

This relates somehow to the mission of the Body of Christ?

But dressing partisan politics up as religion is hilarious.

Hi T8,

Are these your personal views or am I just having a bad dream?

Hi,

I must be on FOX.

Change the channel.
