All of them tell you to blindly trust what some people somewhere at sometime said, often against the better judgment God provides us with. Or the poor judgment Satan influences upon some. <TD class="m

Ah, so Webster's is wrong about its definition of children (i.e. more than one child) in this case but is dead on about its definition of equal. With what authority do you pick and choose? I choose part 6 of your definition from Webster...<TABLE cellpadding=8 width="95%" align=center bgColor=#FFF394 cla

If you look up the word "Child" in Websters I don't think you'll find that it applies to angels very well. Nor is the word "child" used in Luke 20:36. However the word "childeren" is, and is well defind as to that words meaning if you continue to read the sentence, "and are the children of God, being th

Jennifer, Xythe the way you say it Its not the way I say it, John 9:3,4,5&7 are Jesus's own words, and John 9:6 is an act of Jesus. It's not for me to judge what God does and does not do. The man was blind from birth. God did not blind the man. In fact he made the mans life better when

...but in the New Testament, Jewish priests were sent to ask John the Baptist, "Art thou Elijah?" (John, 1:21). John 1:21 And they asked him, What then? Art thou Elijah? And he saith, I am not. Art thou that Prophet? And he answered, No. I am noticing here when John the Baptist is asked if

Equal doesn't necessarily mean of the same spiritual makeup. If I look up "Equal" in the Websters, I come up with words like, the "same", and "identical". These words seem pretty clear to me that humans will be just as Jesus says, "equal to the angels". I do not see the word "equal" ambiguo

In reference to soul storage, the place you are talking about is called the Guf. Yes Andy, the Hall of Souls is also known as The Chamber of Guf, which according to Jewish mystics lies in the 7th heaven. The seventh Heaven, under the leadership of Cassiel, is the holiest of the seven Heavens provided

I'd be interested to know where we get the idea that angels have souls at all. Luk 20:36 Neither can they die any more: for they are equal unto the angels; and are the children of God, being the children of the resurrection. These are Christs words, and "They" referrs to "the childeren of this wor

Im pretty good at most math functions in my head, until it get into calculus and most trig. Sorry, I can't do a SIN, COS TAN in my noggin. If I start getting muddled, I can certainly do most arithmatic and algebraic functions on paper...oh, I cant do LOGs in my head, but I can handle exponentials either mentally or on paper. I did complete up to differential equations in college. I really dont know how people do calculus in their heads, but I

Jennifer, Xythe question You raise the same questions we have all asked ourselves Jen. It's these kinds of questions that drive us into studying various spiritual material, and consequently strengthening our spirituality. Mostly, as human beings, we can only derive an answer if we see

Orion, I'm cool I'm just really having a tough time grasping where Christ mentions anything about Satan being Cains father. I really have a hard time trying to decipher how John, Paul, or any apostle has any idea about what happened in the book of Gen. outside of what Christ may have told them. If Christ had told any of the apostles that Satan was Cain

We have noted, seedline preachers claim that the "tree of knowledge of good and evil" represents Satan the devil. We also noted that they insist upon "consistency" in interpreting the symbols and terms we find in the Scriptures. They are notoriously inconsistent in applying their own rule! Notice how the word "tree[s]" is used in Genesis 3:1-3: "Now the serpent was more subtle than any beast of the field that the LORD God had made. And he said unto the

In a previous article I ask if all souls were created at the same time. I also postulate that the souls of both angels and men were created at the same time, leading to this article and the problem: If all the souls of angels and men were created at the same time, and the angels were present before men are bo

oh, and this is not true. They were expecting the rapture....again go to Acts 1 and 1 Thess 4:16-17. The word rapture means "caught up." They were expecting to be "caught up" with Christ in the clouds on his return. ἁρπάζω harpazō har-pad'-zo From a derivative of G138; to seize (in various applications): - catch (away, up), pluck,

and Cain's father is Satan, not Adam This is outright false. Please see Gen 4:1 - "And Adam knew Eve his wife; and she conceived, and bore Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from the LORD." The Word is very clear here that Satan is NOT the father of Cain.

The first computer I had ever purchased with my own money was a Macintosh Quadra 605. It took me less than 20 minutes to unpack and setup the machine, to the point where I was using my new Mac.

I went through a pretty ugly divorce. I remember something my father told me. Something I did not hear and suffered dearly under until I took his advice. He said, " Louie, dont worry about how and why these things have happened. They truly make little difference." He was right. When I did finally quit pondering how and why, I was able to redefine my new relationship with my ex-wife. Why and how really does not matter. Th
