    Hell is a PLACE

    Umm not all Jews, keep in mind just like other religions there are differents sects with different beliefs. My understanding of some of the beliefs out there regarding sheol is that its closer to the catholic belief of purgatory. However the Jewish idea has originated from traditional beliefs...

    Thesaintman Asks

    Pretty neat how from a non physical thing an intense light energy raced outwards from a point and as it cooled eventually metmorphosed into 92 known elements that make our planet, the universe and our bodies. Even more interesting is that none of these elements, molecules, atoms, etc, etc. that...

    Polygamy in the Old Testament and the New

    Im not a fan of polygamy. But I suspect its primarily a cultural issue and may also have much to do with infant mortality rates. I also think only the more well to do could afford to have many wives. Many wives equated to many children which served to preserve ones name, children kept the...

    Hell is a PLACE

    Pharoh had dreamed a dream, it too had nothing to do with what was written in the bible, yet it meant something and it was meant for Pharoh. Before you take it upon yourself to tell people about your dream and how they need change their life 'or else'. Consider this, the rationalist theologian...

    Hell is a PLACE

    In Tanach when someone says something I have an obligation to search scripture to see if what they say is true. For me that scripture is Torah it is the only book I find God quoted and it is my understanding of the word sheol and how its used in biblical context is that its nothing more than a...

    Hell is a PLACE

    Yes ha satan can go before God in heaven. At least in my understanding of the use of the words 'ha satan'. You see the word satan is of hebrew origin and simply means adversary. There are human adversaries King David was called satan by the Philistines, Rezon amd Hamon were called satan...

    Hell is a PLACE

    Where did the term 'hell' come from? As I stated in another topic, in the book I read there is a place for the body when it dies and its called 'sheol'. And according to my understanding when the Greeks translated sheol they used the word 'hell' and with that word hell came the Greek...

    Learning from other religions

    What about Yoga? I think we would all agree that the religious aspects of it may offend. But I have learned the physical exercise portion of it is useful and provides for a healthy body.

    do near death experiences of other religions exist?

    Interesting some have claimed to have seen 'hell'. In my opinion a biblical deffinition of sheol could best be summed up as the family grave. Sheol is described in my Tanach as it were protected by gates and bolts just as certain burial sites were back in the day. Sheol is described as having...

    Bible Study Two Covenants: The Old and New

    I really dont understand you analogy. If not for the Torah how would you or anyone know what a transgression was? The whole point of the Torah is to give us guidance in our lives, it lights our path, it is our the Kings desire for our lives. Even so, absolutley nothing in Torah is mandatory...

    Bible Study Two Covenants: The Old and New

    Im having trouble swallowing that pill Chopper. How can anyone call a certain people stiff necked for not following their Creators comandments then make the claim the commandments God gave them were impossible to keep anyways? It just doesnt make sense that someone would expect another to do...

    Bible Study Two Covenants: The Old and New

    Th Yes, there is a difference. King David loved the Torah but slipped up lied, committed murder and adultery. However he repented and was forgiven, lived to a ripe old age and was called a righteous man (grace). Even those Gentiles who had harkened to Jonah's warning of having their lives...

    How to become a submissive wife?

    If I understood what you wrote correctly, then sorry if I mislead you. Being wrong isnt always an easy pill to swallow, neither is our relationship a perfect one. We do have arguments which can be quite heated. However this is one man who is glad his wife doesn't sit in the corner being a...

    How to become a submissive wife?

    Lol, I suppose that can be true for me as well. I cant count the number of times my wife has been right. Thankfully I have the good sense to recognize and admit when she is. It usually stops me dead in my tracks and I just roll with it. Thank God she can see what I can't and be able to...

    How to become a submissive wife?

    No. I see Torah as authorative. What makes it comforting for me to believe that is God revealed himself at Mt. Sinai to the whole nation of Israel, that great multitude which came out of Egypt, everyone of them saw and heard who it was that was speaking to Moses. This was done so Israel...

    How to become a submissive wife?

    Ok, but again I ask where did God say such a thing? In times past it is written that God spoke giving the whole nation of Israel a set of commandments. Those words which God spoke were then written down by Moses and Joshua and are kept in what is now known as the Torah. No where in Torah does...

    im not female... but can female build muscle or is it forbidden?

    I believe it was Peter which said to treat a woman as if they were a weaker vessel. Not because they are a weaker vessel. Believe me I know many women who have strengths greater than men. One of which is a woman's intuition, never argue with that or their sense of direction. :yes

    Bible Study do christians have beard? " nor mar the edges of the beard "

    The thing is I do shave, if I dont, I start looking pretty ratty. I also cut my hair from time to time too, otherwise I start looking like Willy Nelson (no offense to Willy Nelson fans), I do this for stylistic reasons. Even pagans do that. :) What I will not do though is behave like a pagan...
