Post #32: The idea (and definition) of the first settlers arriving in Australia being an “invasion” is actually quite recent. (There was no such thought in former years.) Its promotion appears to be an extension of the “political correctness” bandwagon...

Post #7: Pedrito confesses that his knowledge of history has deficiencies. Pedrito has laboured for many years under the delusion that the Johnny-come-lately White Tribe had broken every major treaty with the original Americans that was agreed upon. And while it might be said that the...

Pedrito discovered this area of CH (Politics) by accident. He would never have thought it could be so entertaining. It’s fun to watch MoreCoffee pressing people’s buttons and seeing them react. Watching from the side, it’s so obvious that he is having a lend of them. Pedrito apologises to...

Post #11: “I stopped reading your post when you said the political left is responsible for the racism. Sorry, but you lost me there. I totally disagree. What about the KKK, White Supremicists, Natzis? I suppose they are okay??” Post #12: “Lumping all lefties like that is plain generalizing...

What does “new heavens and a new earth” actually mean? Who or what will be living in the new heavens? Who or what will be living on the new earth? How does this relate to people living in the spiritual heaven? If there is no such interrelationship, why is it even mentioned...

Pedrito proposed in his previous Post, that that the Past Perfect (Pluperfect) tense in Hebrew is represented by the Subject-Verb-Object construction, as opposed to the normal Verb-Subject-Object. An example of this usage can be found in Exodus 12:35,36. Those verses are focussing on the period...

Lämmchen, Post #32 on Page 4: Once again, well pointed out! Let’s have a closer look at the Hebrew. ============================================================================================== Hebrew verbs have two tenses (or moods), termed “Imperfect” and “Perfect”. “The imperfect...

Lämmchen, Post #29 on Page 3: Well pointed out. However, in Genesis 2:18-20 it states that God created the animals after Adam was residing in the Special Garden. Genesis 2:18-20: “18 And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him. 19...

Post #13 on Page 2: Actually, God placed them in that special garden after they had come into existence elsewhere. Check. A minor point maybe, but imprecision in minor things can lead to imprecision in major things as well. And that kind of imprecision when handling God’s Holy Revelation...

It’s against my religion to eat fish on Fridays.

It looks like Pedrito is going to get into trouble again. Pedrito always seems to get into trouble when he points out the proper context of Scripture references used to support some ideas and notions. But Pedrito has rubbed some special ointment onto his skin to thicken it, so here we go. In...

On Post #9, a list of names from Genesis Chapter 5 was submitted, together with suggested associated meanings. (Pedrito has seen various forms of the list in the past.) The list as presented tells a story. The submitted form was a graphic. Pedrito reproduces the list here as a text list. The...

Pedrito strongly endorses the thoughts expressed by Stravinsk in Post #46. They display a wisdom that appears to be somewhat rare among the ranks of Christendom in general.

In God’s God’s Holy Revelation to us, He placed a number of predictive models (or types), indicating things He would bring about at a time then future to each of those models. Ephesians 5:22-31 is one such model. It pertains to the one-man-one-wife principle. That principle is described thus in...

Post #32: Pedrito acknowledges that it is commonly taught that Jesus' resurrection body was a physical one because He ate and could be touched. However, just a modicum of sensible thought and questioning from Scripture can throw serious doubt on that idea. Pedrito is reminded of a movie he...

Post #25 on Page 3: UFO? As in "flying saucer"? It must have been a saucer (source of) much consternation. (Did both exes see that same UFO at the same time? If not, Pedrito wonders how imdeadandidontknowit knew that only one of the UFO's was on drugs.);)

In Post #3, an aspect of Zechariah 12:10 was compared with a statement in Psalm 22. It is true that if one looks at the consonants only (and originally, Hebrew was written consonantally), we can get the impression that two occurrences of what looks like the one word, are indeed the same word...

Post #5 on Page 1: Pedrito suggests that that is not so. Revelation 13:8: “And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.” 1 Peter 1:19,29: “19 But with the precious blood of Christ, as...

Post #30: It is true that Revelation 2:7 states: “He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God.” However, Revelation 2:17 states: “He who has an ear, let...

...Continued With respect to the well expressed thought in Post #4: “The Aleph/Tav addition is arguably redundant in it's usage here, unless it is a regularly used as part of Hebrew grammar to clarify objects of verbs (where no clarity is needed)”, let’s look at a few verses regarding...
