Sad isn't it? The UK for centuries was a strong Christian nation, with Tyndale and others shedding their blood to translate the Scriptures (Hebrew and Greek) into English for the common man to read. And through Satan's influence it has come to what the polls show.

Personally, I believe the tribulation, the man of sin, and the book of Revelation are all concerned with Israel, the nations and the earth. The church body of Christ is not involved having been "raptured." So, the "mark of the beast" must be some time to come, for the beast's power occurs in...

My mistake, it did print.

It is almost a truism that our beliefs on almost any subject are influenced by our pre-conceived ideas, especially in theology. There are so many helps or aids to lead us, hopefully to the truth, such as concordances, lexicons, commentaries etc. We are encouraged to "..present yourself to God as...

I'm not familiar with Oneklos interpretation, but I wll stick with the Scriptures, From the KJV I read Genesis 2:7 thus: "And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul." NOTICE: a separate soul was not...

Hi, Bick here. According to science, the universe had a beginning, and science also shows that it took a Beginner outside of the universe to make it all happen. All this is discussed on reasons.org, an organization made up of many scientists who are also Christans. I would urge everyone to...

Paul declares that we who have received Christ as Saviour are New Creations in Christ Jesus. Nicodemus was a teacher and leader of Israel. Jesus said to him "ye (plural) must be born again (From above), and this was before the cross. To see the kingdom Israel will be born from above by the...

It seems so rediculous that such an idea would be put forth based upon one tiny fragment,, yet ignoring the thousands of ancient parchments and writings attesting that Jesus never married.

The more literal translation of 2 Thes.. 1:6-9 by J.B.Rotherham is: "If at least it is a righteous thing with God to recompense affliction unto them that afflict you and unto you that are afflicted release with us,---By the revealing of the Lord Jesus from heaven with his messengers of power in...

Bick Concerning translations and the originals: Shouldn't we use the most literal translations, such as Young's Literal or Rotherham's Emphasized? When you say "The Bible", which version are you referring to? Young's and Rotherham's are Bibles. I am willing to discuss all these verses using...

Another point, how can the Church Body of Christ be His bride, and the same time be a son? Rom. 8:14 "For all who are led by the Spirit of God are the sons of God." Rom. 8:17 "....and if sons, then heirs, heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ..." Gal. 4:26 "...for in Christ Jesus you are...

Yes, we are told that just prior to Christ's return in power and great glory, mankind would be living like in the days of Noah and Sodom and Gomorah, that is living for their own desires, ignoring any warnings of impending disaster. While the world is certainly increasing in evil, I believe...

Where is the literal LOF today that "disembodied souls" of unbelievers, with no brain, no senses, unable to feel anything, are suposedly in torment before being judged? Imagine, an all loving, gracious God will have the majority of His own creation suffer torment in flames of fire, some for...

Yes, it would seem there are controversies. But since I believe there are none, there must be an explanation, and there is, not in the bulk of the English Versions, but in literal translations. I.E., you have quoted many verses where "eternal punishment" or judgment in hell. Now, this can't be...

Thanks taylor. I agree that all scriptures concerning a particular subject should be studied. For instance take "soul." By studying all the verses, particularly where "nephesh" is used, one will find that "soul" could be said to be the consciousnrss, the feelings, the desires, produced by the...

Could you help me then. What do the verses mean thst I quoted, if not as they read?

How could any one love a God who is the creator of humanity, yet brings the vast majority into being only to live for a relatively short period of time, and then suffer conscious eternal torment? I can't! And, praise God, the inspired Scriptures when properly translated decry such a thing. For...
