Re: A Blood Moonless Evening?
I found this article and thought it very good in reference to all the 'blood moon' hype that has been most distressing to me as I have seen so many wonderful people taken in by it. http://americanvision.org/10106/blood-moons-bible-prophecy-integrity-bible/ I thought the lunar eclipse would NOT be vi...

Re: WHAT ARE THE TEN COMMANDMENTS?
It is confusing because the Lord says He will write on the tablets the original ten commandments, then after giving more commandments, it reads: 27 And the LORD said to Moses, “Write these words , for in accordance with these words I have made a covenant with you and with Israel.” Perhaps He is sayi...

Re: The Hardness of their hearts?
2Samuel 21 appears to give an account of human sacrifice being sanctioned by God in order to lift a famine off the land. The account begins thus: 1 ¶ Now there was a famine in the days of David for three years, year after year. And David sought the face of the LORD. And the LORD said, “There is bloo...

Re: What Must Be Believed To Be Saved?
I wish there was a 'like' button. Great discussion going on here. When I first met the Lord, this was it for me: Romans 10:9 because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. All I knew for days was that Jesus w...

Re: Truths and Lies
Walking in a peace that years ago I would have never dreamed possible, the thought, "This is too good to be true" comes to mind. Pinching myself, "It is true," comes to mind. I think I would like the 'unpleasant truths' booth - let's get the show on the road and get it over with!! But, that's pretty...

Re: True Forgiveness
To divorce a spouse who had been in adultery, but now repented and made restitution in every way possible sounds punitive, like 'payback' - which one does not do when one forgives.

Re: Following Jesus in How to Read the Bible
Thanks, Homer for this. Your scripture references help. Maybe it was the same as with Anias and Saphira - that it appeared that God got angry and struck poor Uzza dead (as some say happened with Anias and Saphira) - but God didn't do it - the writer reported it as he saw it. God warned everyone to n...

Re: Following Jesus in How to Read the Bible
2 Corinthians, 3:14 But their minds were hardened. For to this day, when they read the old covenant, that same veil remains unlifted, because only through Christ is it taken away. 15 Yes, to this day whenever Moses is read a veil lies over their hearts. 16 But when one turns to the Lord, the veil i...

Re: Following Jesus in How to Read the Bible
Thank you for your reply, Dizerner. I have read your response and my post several times and do not understand how you can deduce that I regard God as nothing more than an equal whom I disrespect. Is it something I said? I have no problem with God's severity - everyone needs to know how to be severe ...

Re: Following Jesus in How to Read the Bible
After meeting Jesus later in life than most, for years I struggled with the account of Uzziah being struck dead after touching the Ark to keep it from falling off the cart, for which David was ultimately responsible. Under the surface, I hated and feared the God who did that because it just like the...
