    Self published is crap - Yes or no?

    You can record a decent album for under a thousand dollars and self publish, if a major label wants to sign you they will use that album and slap on a label (why some albums tend to have two labels) especially if you got on a small indie label roster.. Daniel Johnston was an amazing songwriter...

    The intermediate state of life after death

    Parables are based on possible situations using actual things that speak on numbers of issues, greed, forgiveness, obedience, judgment etc.. none the less they are practical and using names or the term "certain" implies non figurative narratives.. Jesus was describing an actual place that the...

    The intermediate state of life after death

    I rely on no tradition btw, I am more interested in what the early Christians in Paul's era universally believed and I find it simple and delightful. When they disagreed they didn't create any separate denominational movements, theologians back then were our early Church fathers and were...

    The intermediate state of life after death

    Soul + body is described as a "living soul" which makes perfect sense. Death is separation of the body, thus "sleep" is inactivity of the body but the soul itself does not cease to exist. The JW view is that your soul cease to exists and God will remember you and recreate your spirit with a new...

    The intermediate state of life after death

    Luther sounds like a regular man, indeed we don't know as much as we'd like to know but I guarantee the souls doesn't sleep nor cease to exists

    The intermediate state of life after death

    I'm not Lutheran, so what I get from the word "sleep" is simply inactivity of the body... If we "sleep" in "death" I suppose that what we may dream is only a response to what we experience, so seeing that in life we are judged according to our works, in death we have no power or wiggle room for...

    The intermediate state of life after death

    I own 2 SDA DVD lectures that are no doubt historical and interesting but both have this overwhelming obsession of belief that since the RCC has many obvious pagan influences and roots particularly since Constantine, that all RCC beliefs are rooted in paganism and thus whatever the ante Nicene...

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

    A good example, speaks on the Anglican church view btw, only Hebrew can be "canon" according to this Pharisee offspring/Talmudic Jew Albion https://youtu.be/tGrETdLf4TI https://youtu.be/JhntNqfJ_A4

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

    I find it interesting how much "canon" has consumed different denominations.. According to the Jews only the Torah (first 5 books of Moses) are "canon" (God's authority) and the rest of the writings are used solely for edification.. this edification however concerns prophecy and there is...

    Types and Shadows

    Not sure if this is one, thought it was interesting though... anyone have any good types and shadows to share? And Moses was not able to enter into the tent of the congregation, because the cloud abode thereon, and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle. Exodus 40:35 Then answered Peter...

    Is Obedience a Condition of Salvation?

    I wonder why Paul called himself the chief of sinners being an apostle and such, you would think he would be completely Holy by the time he said such a thing :/ Point being we can appear to be righteous to others but a humble servant will admit that he isn't perfect but is still justified...

    Is Obedience a Condition of Salvation?

    Humans aren't demons nor can they become demons, what you are suggesting is that faith alone may be demonic, if you truly mean "belief" then you know that to a Christian it means "Faith"... a faithless/unbelieving christian is no Christian, nor is a believing demon a Christian because demons...

    Quick quick hurry hurry need advice ASAP!

    Thanks for all of the advice! I think I got something perfect for her. Maybe some other time I can help answer some questions she may have, for basic bible study I recommended Les Feldick but she apparently never checked into that.. I know that she loves to color at work to pass time when it...

    Is Obedience a Condition of Salvation?

    May Gods grace be with us all as we mature in his likeness, but remain humble and don't force effort in hopes that he may bless you for he has already perfected us and blessed us by creating us afresh. There is always room for learning and correcting... for example Paul preaches to the...

    Is Obedience a Condition of Salvation?

    Yep there is nothing more we can do but the charity works of love for another that God puts in us, im thankful God delivered me from my shop lifting habit and disrespect to my parents, those two I call "free ones" that just came with the gift of Gods calling :) it's no longer in my heart or mind...

    What books do you recommend for basic Q and A on scripture? And no I'm not interested in her at all lol, I was thinking of Christian flare but on second thought it's not something I would replace the word with. Any good commentary books? I would really like to get her the dictionary on early...

    Is Obedience a Condition of Salvation?

    Yes but what about what we don't do? To me that's repentance and deliverance. What we should do is preach the word to those who have a false misconception of what accepting Christ is really about. We will slip up again and again because we are not Christ but we should follow him and hold our...
