There's a book about the whole business . . .

Do you have a list of names? Police Reports? Death Certificates?

75 million years at least.

No Preterist is waiting for the 70th week.

Who was sawn in two? According to Hebrews 11, some people who had faith in God.

Hi TonyC7, Hold that thought. Jud 1:14-15 Now Enoch, the seventh from Adam, prophesied about these men also, saying, "Behold, the Lord comes with ten thousands of His saints, (15) to execute judgment on all, to convict all who are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they...

Nowhere specifically, but search "7 Year Tribulation Scripture" and your cup will run over with claims and counterclaims. I take a symbolic approach, that tribulation exists as the consequence of God's Plan to bring everything to Perfect Completion, which the number 7 is representive of...

Quote from the Bible Believer's Commentary on Hebrews 11:35b Others were tortured, not accepting deliverance, that they might obtain a better resurrection. Because of their faith in the Lord, some were subjected to cruel torture. If they would have renounced Jehovah, they would have been...

A whole raft of astute commentators consider Ephesians 2 to be about SALVATION. See this quote from The Bible Believer's Commentary: Ephesians 2: 8,9,10. 2:8 The next three verses present as clear a statement of the simple plan of salvation as we can find in the Bible. It all originates with...

Yes they do. They are both Scripture and ALL SCRIPTURE IS GOD-BREATHED AND USEFUL FOR DOCTRINE, REPROOF, CORRECTION, AND INSTRUCTION IN RIGHTEOUSNESS. But taken out of context and lumped together like some so-called "proof texts" are, they become pretexts. pre•text (ˈpri tɛkst) n. 1...

Salvation is the gift of God. His grace is sufficient for me. Eph 2:8-10 For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, (9) not of works, lest anyone should boast. (10) For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works...

Not likely.

Context exists without the reader's input. It just means the surrounding verses. Put these two verses together without context and they don't provide an accurate interpretation. Mat 27:5 Then he threw down the pieces of silver in the temple and departed, and went and hanged himself. Mat...

Yes. When it comes to Scripture I agree, context is crucial, belief is beneficial, and application is assayable. 2Ti 2:15 Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

My earliest memories from infancy include family Bible readings every night after dinner. 2 adults. 6 children. I'm the 4th and we all took our turn per night once we had learned to read. We followed the mail order Bible Reading Fellowship "age specific" plan with 4 sets per year of 3 months...

Yes, and the point of Christ shedding His blood for the remission of sins is because nothing else could perfectly remit them. Heb 9:11-23 But Christ being come an high priest of good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this...

Always by faith, as per these verses: Righteousness through Faith in Christ (Philippians 3:1–11) 21But now, apart from the law, the righteousness of God has been revealed, as attested by the Law and the Prophets. 22And this righteousness from God comes through faith in Jesus Christ to all who...

Years ago a teaching that Jesus didn't really die was being given some prominence, but at the time I wasn't having any of it and I'm still not having any of it. The Scriptures are profitable for doctrine, reproof, correction and instruction in righteousness, that the person of God may be...

Tick that box. I find everything about the Macabees and the intertestamental period, or the "silent years" as they are sometimes known, very interesting.

Yeah, God's Foreknowledge results in His Predetermining of the elect to be conformed to the image of Christ, but what of those who fall away? Who Falls From Grace? Gal 5:4 You have become estranged from Christ, you who attempt to be justified by law; you have fallen from grace. They made a...
