    Theophilus Wrote Luke and Acts

    I've looked into all of the sources that I have access to personally, and on the Internet (some of them that I would have never looked at otherwise, in fact), and as I stated earlier, NO ONE, on either side of the theological fence, believes what you do, no one. So please, if you have sources...

    Theophilus Wrote Luke and Acts

    The Gospels of Matthew, Mark and John are not signed by the men they are named after either.

    Theophilus Wrote Luke and Acts

    Hello CherubRam, as I pointed out to you earlier in this thread, your quote about needing to investigate everything from the beginning comes from Luke's Gospel. Luke was NOT an Apostle (or even a disciple) of the Lord Jesus back then, but the Gospel of Luke is all about the Lord Jesus and His...

    Theophilus Wrote Luke and Acts

    Hello Josef, actually, I believe that Luke is the most prolific writer in the NT, based upon (Greek) word count anyway. The Gospel of Luke + the Acts of the Apostles has 500+ more words in them than all of the Apostle Paul's Books/Epistles combined, and that's including the Book of Hebrews in...

    Advice for a young new Christian? (Seeking advice!)

    Hello beepii, my advice is much the same as the advice that you've already been given. 1. Bible/God's word/Scripture - read it every day and pray while you do. This is perhaps the principal way that we 'dialogue' with God. He speaks to us through His word, and we reply back to Him in prayer as...

    Theophilus Wrote Luke and Acts

    Unlike the Acts of the Apostles, the Gospel of Luke is about the Lord Jesus Christ. Luke (who was the only Gentile author of a NT Gospel or Epistle) was not an eyewitness/did not know the Lord Jesus personally, so he had to investigate before writing His Gospel. The word "κράτιστος" is...

    New here- and to Christianity as a whole

    Hello beepii, welcome to CF, and far more importantly, welcome to the family of God as well!! I'm glad that you found us and joined in the discussions with us 🙂 God bless you!! --David p.s. - there's a 4-part online teaching series for new believers (that was very helpful to me when I became a...

    Theophilus Wrote Luke and Acts

    Right, nobody is disagreeing with that. That hardly makes him an "eyewitness" of the Lord Jesus and His 3-year earthly ministry however, so the way that he (Luke) began the Gospel of Luke makes perfect sense....... Luke 1 1 Inasmuch as many have undertaken to compile an account...

    Theophilus Wrote Luke and Acts

    Hello CherubRam, I agree that Luke was an eyewitness of some of the things that happened in the early church (following the Lord's Ascension), but why do you believe that he (Luke) was also an eyewitness of some or all of the Lord Jesus' life and ministry, and what evidence led you to this...

    It is impossible for Michael to be Jesus. (Yahshua)

    The Book of Enoch is a pseudepigraphal work, as it claims to be authored by Enoch, a man who lived and was then raptured into Heaven alive some 4,000 years before the book was written. --David

    It is impossible for Michael to be Jesus. (Yahshua)

    Hello Mark, I agree, however, Daniel 10:13, which describes Michael as just one of the "chief princes", indicates that he is not the lone archangel. Granted, no other archangels are specified in the Bible by name, but that hardly means that they don't exist. How so, as there is nothing in Jude...

    Bible Study When Does A Christian Become Immortality/Born Again?

    Thanks. I'll bookmark it so that I can refer to it if necessary. I've never been on that particular forum before. It appears to be a pretty active one :)

    Bible Study When Does A Christian Become Immortality/Born Again?

    Hello Walter and Debbie, I believe that the Lord Jesus was referring to Ezekiel 36:25-27 when He talked to Nicodemus about being "born again". The NT reference that I would also point someone to about being born again (which I believe refers most directly to quickening or regeneration) is...

    Jesus

    But she did choose to tell everyone what her song is about, that's the point. She appears to be a Roman Catholic from birth, not Rosicrucian (as she refers to her Catholic upbringing on her website, including the fact that she entered into the "Sacrament of Marriage" on the 33rd anniversary of...

    Are the Dead REALLY Dead?

    Hello again THINK!, I apologize, as I reread your title + OP, the topic is clearly in regards to the Intermediate State and therefore, the doctrine of the Sleep of the Soul. So, I will begin again. That's not true of ~all~ of the world's religions, is it, as The Jehovah's Witnesses (for one)...

    Are the Dead REALLY Dead?

    Hello THINK!, just to be clear, is your concern in the OP with the "Intermediate State" (IOW, with the time between our physical death and our bodily resurrection from the grave), or is it your belief that this life is all that there is for us, IOW, that upon our death we cease to exist, never...

    Jesus

    That's not what the song is about, at least not according to one of the official descriptions of the song, which (speaking about the video that you posited for us above in post #6) tells us that it is.......... ................a visual animation to Danielle Rose’s song ‘Crown of Thorns’, in...

    Jesus

    Hello again Angelical, none of this seems to be in reply to anything that I said to you in my last post (even though you quoted it), so I won't reply to your newest post as if it did (unless I am missing something, that is .. if so, please point it out to me). That said, here is my reply to...

    Jesus

    Agreed. Most do. Only "relate to", and not be "used of" 🤔 (please elaborate). "Translate by deity" of deific'" .. not sure what you mean by that :thinking(please explain). Thanks 🙂 (is "deific" a word that you made up?) When you speak of the Logos as God in "substance/quality", what are you...
