    What is the main reason why the Apocrypha doesn’t belong in the Bible?

    Table of contents from the original 1611 King James Bible: Table of contents from the KJV Thompson Chain-Reference Bible (1988): Based on a search of Table of Contents, the KJV Bible once contained those extra books, but no longer appears to contain them.

    Types and Shadows

    [Genesis 5:24] [NASB] 24 Enoch walked with God; and he was not, for God took him. [NIV] 24 Enoch walked faithfully with God; then he was no more, because God took him away. [NLT] 24 walking in close fellowship with God. Then one day he disappeared, because God took him. [1 Thessalonians 4:17]...

    Fruit of the Spirit?

    I do not believe that this fruit is displayed apart from the grace of God, only a worldly counterfeit. LUST and MOTIVATED SELF INTEREST masquerade as “Love”, but self sacrifice placing the well being of another irrespective of any merit deserving such treatment, like the love of Hosea for his...

    Importance of observing Communion

    [1 Corinthians 11:23-26 NASB] 23 For I received from the Lord that which I also delivered to you, that the Lord Jesus in the night in which He was betrayed took bread; 24 and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, "This is My body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of Me." 25 In...

    Do ancient civilizations pre-date Noah’s flood?

    God is holy. Men are fallen. Jesus came to bridge the gap between God and Man. You must decide what you are going to do about these facts. (I thought someone better make sure you hear the Gospel at least once).

    Do ancient civilizations pre-date Noah’s flood?

    How did you arrive at the date for the Flood?

    It seems the Missouri Synod LC...

    All three positions, Classical Arminianism, Reformed and Lutheran are “Biblical” ... that is why there has been no progress on this debate since Augustine.

    Why did Jesus cleanse the temple?

    [Sarcasm Monday] You convinced me. You are correct. The Moneychangers were righteous. Jesus was mistaken, bore false witness and sinned. We are ALL damned because there is no spotless “Lamb of God” to take away our sins. I think I’ll head off and rob a liquor store and get drunk ... what...

    The origin of the St. John's Day Festival (or Midsummer Day).

    If you put up one piece of actual evidence, then I would unequivocally believe that you actually had some evidence for your claims. As things stand, your claim is comparable to “my grandmother told me, that a leprechaun told her, a story comes straight from a unicorn that was actually there”...

    Why did Jesus cleanse the temple?

    I know that you did not look up those terms and read the actual scriptures. I know that the moneychangers converted foreign currency into temple currency. I know that the temple tax had to be paid in temple currency. I know that the moneychangers received no salary for their work, but were...

    Why did Jesus cleanse the temple?

    Objection: Stating facts not in evidence. What ARE the facts ... [Mat 21:12-17 NASB] 12 And Jesus entered the temple and drove out all those who were buying and selling in the temple, and overturned the tables of the money changers and the seats of those who were selling doves. 13 And He said...

    Did Jesus celebrate a holiday that comes from the apocrypha?

    It does not say that Jesus celebrated the Feast of Dedication, it just says that Jesus was in Jerusalem during the Feast of Dedication. Since the Gospel of John had him at the Jordan River near where John the Baptist was baptizing, a quick look at a map reveals that there is a road from...

    The origin of the St. John's Day Festival (or Midsummer Day).

    What historical evidence? Having researched the issue, the Passover preparations and weather patterns in the vicinity of Bethlehem require the story of the shepherds and angelic heralding to have occurred in December or January. Hint: When is the range of dates for Passover and what is the...

    The origin of the St. John's Day Festival (or Midsummer Day).

    Citing a website that cites other unverifiable facts from websites as it’s “original source” is not very scholarly. Do you have ANYTHING that has at least been peer reviewed in a trade journal or cites a primary source (like an actual pagan transcript or a historical manuscript like Josephus)...

    What happens when we die?

    [Rev 4:1-4 NASB] 1 After these things I looked, and behold, a door [standing] open in heaven, and the first voice which I had heard, like [the sound] of a trumpet speaking with me, said, "Come up here, and I will show you what must take place after these things." 2 Immediately I was in the...

    The false doctrine of the immortality of the soul (or State of the Dead).

    39 One of the criminals who were hanged there was hurling abuse at Him, saying, "Are You not the Christ? Save Yourself and us!" 40 But the other answered, and rebuking him said, "Do you not even fear God, since you are under the same sentence of condemnation? 41 "And we indeed are suffering...

    Sabbath or Sunday? What did Jesus teach & show in scripture?

    What a hack job you did on cutting that verse out of context to throw it around like a pawn in a game. Have you gouged out your eye yet? As long as the context of scripture and full verses don’t matter, Jesus also said “gouge it out and throw it away. It's better to enter eternal life with only...

    What is Easter

    In 8th Century German, the Teutonic words for the goddess Easter, the direction East, the Sunrise (in the east) are all related. The Roman Priests at that time wore WHITE robes on Resurrection Sunday Mass (which always occurs around the same time as Passover which always occurs around the...

    Sabbath or Sunday? What did Jesus teach & show in scripture?

    ... but the Holy Spirit inspired the Apostle Paul to teach us: So don't let anyone condemn you for what you eat or drink, or for not celebrating certain holy days or new moon ceremonies or Sabbaths. For these rules are only shadows of the reality yet to come. And Christ himself is that...

    The False Doctrine of the "Secret Rapture".

    That is A POSSIBLE interpretation, but an argument could be made that the Parable of the fig tree starts a new thought and Jesus is explaining the same event several times in different ways ... so only the SUN, MOON and STARS part will came immediately after the great Tribulation. They would...
