The title of this topic, “Eternal past existence of the son” is an oxymoron.The definition of the word 'son' means that there is a Father/Originator. Thus, if the son was eternal and co-equal, he would not be a son, except for a brief time when he came in the flesh. But he is back to where he was, thus he would not be the son now. But he is.

An Islamic world that you imagine may not come to pass, but it is possible that the AntiChrist will be considered the Mahdi of Islam and he may give them permission to cut the heads of all those who believe in the true God.We just don't know for sure. We are given signs and events, but how it all exactly plays out, not one knows for sure. Jesus…[Read more]

I personally believe that Paradise is the part outside the City of God. It has mansions 'dwellings' and the river of life that flows from the throne of God and into the city then flows into paradise. Eden was so named Paradise because it is an image of Paradise. While there was likely rivers of water in Eden, in the Heavenly Paradise there is the…[Read more]

Quote (WorshippingJesus @ Dec. 26 2013,11:26)T8That is circular because I find your beliefs confusing. You say you believe in “Only ONE TRUE GOD” yet you believe there are other “gods” like satan.I didn't make the rules. Jesus answered them, “Is it not written in your Law, 'I have said you are gods' ? If he called them 'gods,' to whom the word of…[Read more]

If I remember rightly, the beast or the 10 kings burn the woman with fire.And if the woman is Rome, then that could well be an Islamic Empire of 10 kings that destroys Rome.  And all those who refused to worship him have their heads cut off.
