When William Carey wanted to go to India a preacher, said to him, “Sit down, young man. When God wants to reach the nations, he’ll do it without your help.” In other words, “Don’t you go out there and preach the gospel indiscriminately to those pagans. You might tempt somebody to embrace the...

Mark 6:5 And he could do no mighty work there, except that he laid his hands on a few sick people and healed them. Mark 6:6 And he marveled because of their unbelief. And he went about among the villages teaching.

Is this the real reason many oppose bringing law and order to our crime ridden cities? I really thought this was a parody but sadly, it seems some people actually believe what this lady says.

You make a solid, logical point. No matter who may be right on some of these things, God was and is in control of everything down to the last molecule. God raises men up for certain purposes but nothing man does can thwart God's plans even if we don't fully understand how these things work...

John MacArthur is was a hardcore, dyed-in-the-wool, uncompromising, five-point-Calvinist just like you are but didn’t wring his hands about God failing, but maybe it will come to pass the second time around. He actually held to the same understanding I explained in his Study Bible and saw no...

According to scripture he could have been but everything worked out according to the sovereign will of God. The age old question concerning the sovereignty of God and man's responsibility. If the Jews would have accepted the truth the scriptures would have been written differently.

Nothing failed. The Jews did not accept the truth so John did not fulfill the prophecy exactly as Jesus said.

Jesus told them if they will receive it, John would have been the fulfillment of the Elijah prophecy. That did not happen therefore, he was not the fulfillment of that prophecy. Elijah will still come before the great and dreadful day of the Lord which of course is yet future.

You're toxic.

John the Baptist came in the spirit and power of Elijah (Matt 11:14) and Jesus told them if they had believed, John would have been the fulfillment of the Elijah prophesies. John the Baptist took on Elijah’s prophetic role but the same spirit that led to John’s execution would also put Christ on...

I've heard of semantics and what you said fits the bill.

I am beginning to appreciate the nuances of some of the Reformed positions in relation to the Millennial reign of Christ although I strongly believe the thousand years in Revelation 20 should not be symbolized in any way. However, we can disagree without malice. Concerning dual fulfillment in...

Sorry about that. I guess I am getting your position mixed up with Ekk. So you believe there will be an actual reign of Christ for one thousand year on the earth? As to the question on why I gave the example of the Calvinist who didn’t want to have children, that should be obvious. You bring up...

Mat 24:15 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:) Notice what happens “immediately after the abomination of desolation” [then] shall begin great tribulation, such as was not since...

Quote Jesus Himself said there would be a temple just before His second coming in Matthew 24 whether it was built before or after the Rapture. The apostle Paul in his eschatological epistle of 2 Thessalonians said there would be a temple desecrated before the day of the Lord came about. There...

This must be going over everyones' heads. I agree with you 100% on that. What the Jews are doing is worthless conerning the sacrifices they plan on doing once the Temple is built but it does show that Bible prophecy is true; there will be a Temple before the Lord returns and the man of sin...

93% of Virginia Democrats Approve of Their Candidates Calling for the Murder of Republicans and Children Dying in Their Mother’s Arms But Donald Trump has put out some mean tweets https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/10/93-virginia-democrats-approve-their-candidates-calling-murder/

It isn’t just the red heifer but all the things that I have pointed out. Rabbinical traditions are not authoritative. The nation of Israel is still in a state of unbelief. It is unexpected because no man knows the day or the hour. In 1 Thess 4:15 Paul said “we which are alive and remain unto...

The red heifer is needed for ritual purification so the OT sacrifices can be resumed which is impossible until the Temple is rebuilt. Jesus said that when we will see the abomination of desolation in the last days it will be just before His return (Matt 24:15). Paul also agrees with that when...

Believers in Thessalonica were alarmed because they thought they had missed the coming of Christ..."and our gathering together to Him" (2 Thess 2:1-2) and were living in the time of Jacob’s Trouble (Jer 30:7). Paul talked about the Day of the Lord in his first letter (1 Thess 5: 2-5) and there...
