I believe he died on Wed. evening just before sunset. He then spent wed night, thur. day, thur. night, fri. day, fri night, sat day, 3 days and 3 nights. Sunday for us starts at midnight but for them it started at sunset (sat. night). So when the scriptures say "first thing" it doesn't mean in the morning but at the start of the day. I believe…[Read more]

Quote (dattaswami @ Mar. 05 2006,16:22)Critizising other ReligionsThe Lord is universal but the human beings in the universe differ in their attitudes. The same single Lord adopts a different procedure in a different region and such different procedure appears as a different religion. A few criticize the Lord of other religion. You are criticizing…[Read more]

One thing I forgot was to speculate on the city. As I see it after the flood, Babylon was where “the woman” started anew but scripture seems to indicate that it was not necessarily tied to the physical site (Peters reference to Rome being Babylon, I think?). This also brings up the possiblity that it may move around to other cities which are…[Read more]

5One man considers one day more sacred than another; another man considers every day alike. Each one should be fully convinced in his own mind. 6He who regards one day as special, does so to the Lord. He who eats meat, eats to the Lord, for he gives thanks to God; and he who abstains, does so to the Lord and gives thanks to God. 7For none of us…[Read more]

What happened here was not harmony with all points of view, but align yourself with truth or bye bye. T8I apologize as I seem to of offended you. However I would like to point out that I did not say we should align with all points of view, but with all scripture. I in no way meant we should (in anyway) compromise the word of God. My only point was…[Read more]

Possibly off the subject but always a good reminderKnowledge puffs up, but love builds up.We will be known by our love for one another.I know as I've sought for truth I've had to struggle with accepting some revelations that in some cases I felt were heresy. It didn't happen overnight for me nor for most I believe. For my part I believe we need to…[Read more]

I believe that the Holy Spirit, like Jesus, is a unique manifestation of the Father which came about at the instant of creation of these two realities. I believe that when God created these realities, these planes of existence were outside of Himself and these new manifestations contained the essence of the Father but are themselves separate…[Read more]

I apoligize, I'm new to this whole forum thing and as I was unable to answer your question and I was reading through to see if someone did. Then I just responded to a point in T8's reply and went off on some other less related topic of my own.

T8 your information on notes in the margin was interesting I never knew that. I've always been cautious with people demanding a direct translation only, not that I don't believe what was written but consider how would someone a 1000 years from now understand statements from the 70's like “that's far out” or would a “cool dude” be a cowboy needing…[Read more]

I just found this site recently and have found it very encouraging. I agree with most everything I've read from the author (having arrived at these conclusions over the last 25 years of seeking God). I wasn't aware there were others of like faith and belief. I have questioned at times if I wasn't off in left field somewhere, but the truth was…[Read more]
