    Mountains Shake, Earth Removed...Oh My!

    The following song spoke of an historical event ("doubtless during Sennacherib's siege for no other period of Israel's history suits it" - E.W. Bullinger) But all historical, literal, events speak of future spiritual events! 1 Corinthians 10:11 Now all these things happened unto them for...

    How Is It...Ye Do Not Understand?

    Concerning the loaves of bread, fishes, baskets and leaven, how do we answer when He asks us..... Mark 8:21 And He said unto them, How is it that ye do not understand? Matthew 14:14-16 And Jesus went forth, and saw a great multitude, and was moved with compassion toward them, and He healed...

    Priest Doing Violence to the Law!

    Zephaniah 2:15 This is the rejoicing city that dwelt carelessly, that said in her heart, I am, and there is none beside me: how is she become a desolation, a place for beasts to lie down in! every one that passeth by her shall hiss, and wag his hand. The great city, the spiritual city symbolic...

    Bible Study In The Name Of...What Does That Mean?

    To believe in Jesus Christ as the Son of God....is one thing. To believe in the name of Jesus Christ is...another thing. There are some that see Him as a wonderful man, a special man....but not as the Lord God. To me, to believe in His name is to recognize all the names of God and know He...

    Bible Study The Many Mansions He Prepares

    John 14:2 In My Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. 14:23 Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love Me, he will keep My words: and My Father will love him, and We will come unto him, and make our abode with him...

    Bible Study The Many Mansions He Prepares

    John 14:2-4 In My Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto Myself; that where I am, there ye may be also. And whither I go ye know, and the way ye...

    Two Witnesses and Dead Bodies

    Yes. Candlesticks are churches. Both the wild and the natural receive life from Jesus. There are two olive trees, one wild and one natural beside Jesus.

    Bible Study In The Name Of...What Does That Mean?

    John 3:18 He that believeth on Him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. There is only One "begotten Son." Some may believe in Him but do they "believe in the name of the only begotten Son of...

    Two Witnesses and Dead Bodies

    The two witnesses, which I see as two groups of witnesses....lots of us, is found in: The two witnesses are... Revelation 11:4 These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth. God tells us that candlesticks are churches.... Revelation 1:20 The...

    Two Witnesses and Dead Bodies

    One problem with viewing the angels Michael and Gabriel as the "two witnesses" is...they are angels. They are in incorruptible bodies. They cannot die. Revelation 11:7-8 And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war...

    Bible Study Gen 5

    Their nakedness has nothing to do with not wearing clothing.

    Bible Study Gen 5

    You asked...."So why does her nakedness make a difference?" I answered that she began being naked - without sin and ended up being naked - without God. Big difference.

    Two Witnesses and Dead Bodies

    In considering the "two witnesses," I believe Scripture points to them being...many. Rather than two men, such as Moses and Elijah, I see them as two groups of witnesses. If that is correct then what is meant by "their dead bodies?" Revelation 11:8 And their dead bodies shall lie in the...

    Bible Study Gen 5

    There are different ways to understand being naked. After they sinned..... Genesis 3:21 Unto Adam also and to his wife did the Lord God make coats of skins, and clothed them. What does that mean? Is it to be seen literally, animal skins to cover a naked man and woman? There are two...

    We Are His Righteous Trees

    Thank you for your reply Rick. A literal blind man would certainly bump into many literal trees in his life but what I am given to see (pardon the pun) is the passage teaching us to see spiritually. To see the spiritual meaning of trees being people. 1 Corinthians 2:13 Which things also we...

    We Are His Righteous Trees

    This is the passage that first opened my eyes to see spiritually. Before He took me by the hand...I was blind, as was the man here: Mark 8:23-25 And He took the blind man by the hand, and led him out of the town; and when He had spit on his eyes, and put His hands upon him, He asked him...

    We Are His Righteous Trees

    :sohappy What a great compilation of...trees! The olive and fig trees may show a difference in the house of Judah and the house of Israel or...Israel and Gentile nations. I haven't studied it yet but it's in the back of my mind. As for the palm trees...look at this: Exodus 15:27 And...

    We Are His Righteous Trees

    I agree, that was the point...however, was the Assyrian in Lebanon a literal tree? No, so the point of my thread is to point out that Biblical trees ARE speaking of people

    Bible Study Gen 5

    I don't have a clue as to the length of time Adam was in the garden but...there were others there before him and many there today. It is a spiritual garden that speaks of God's chosen that live for Him. Genesis 3:24 So He drove out the man; and He placed at the east of the garden of Eden...

    We Are His Righteous Trees

    So...God has literal trees He considers "righteous?" What about the trees in the garden that "envied" which I quoted in the OP? What of.... Isaiah 55:12 For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace: the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all...
