Re: Where have all the demons gone?
An interesting post. I've read all the replies, plus listened to three complete audios from the link to Steve's material about spiritual warfare. More apologies here for another lengthy comment in advance, because there is simply no way to compress scripture's content on this issue into a single par...

Re: Steve Gregg Responds to Jack Hibbs
This audio (which I listened to in its entirety) is a stellar treatment opposing the issues presented by the panel of speakers. The vast majority of Steve's comments I can agree with. There's just one item I would like to highlight, and that is the debate above about the "times and seasons" mentione...

Re: 666 YEARS dates Revelation's composition
Hi Singalphile, And thank you for your courteous welcome to a newbie poster, plus your response here. You've nailed it about the time it took for Revelation to disseminate to the 7 churches of Asia and the wider Church before they became embroiled in Nero's AD 64 pogrom. For those who claim an AD 65...

Re: New member greetings
Hi Steve, Thank you for the gracious welcome. Will do my best to uphold the honor of womankind here, even if they might be a minority. Hmmm, just a wild guess, but perhaps the 3 to 1 ratio in favor of predominantly male participation is due to the appeal of the beard factor? There's a growing popula...

666 YEARS dates Revelation's composition
Okay, sometimes the best way to get into the "swimming pool" of a Christian forum is to do a quick sprint with a cannonball jump into the deep end. So here goes... I have the firm conviction that there are many internal evidences within scripture itself that pin down a single year as the date of Rev...

Re: New member greetings
Hi Carmine, It took me a while, but it's good to finally "shake hands" with you here. Thoroughly enjoyed discussing themes with you on your Daniel-reloaded site. Will have to get on your "Darius the Mede" post that you submitted here a while back, just to toss that subject around a bit. Out of curio...

Re: THE FIRST CHRISTMAS
Hi Paidion, Well, it seems that Christ can claim both titles: the "First-born", as well as the "First-begotten". I'm relying on the KJV for Rev. 1:5, which is the verse I presume we are both looking at, yes? "And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first-begotten of the dead, and...

Re: THE FIRST CHRISTMAS
Hi Paidion, Looks as if their list totally ignored Christ's birth on His resurrection day in AD 33 as the Rev. 1:5 "First-begotten among the dead". That birth was predicted in Psalms 2:7 (cp. Acts 13:33). "...THIS DAY have I begotten thee." It fulfilled the reason for the dedication to God of every ...
