Our conscience is not always a good guide. If our conscience is not in line with Scripture then it's still wrong. Many follow their conscience and marry the wrong person, have an abortion, or do other wrong and sinful things.

If you believe that there is a difference between the OT and the NT, then you hold to a form of dispensationalism.
If you believe that there is a difference between the Church and Israel, then you hold to a form of dispensationalism.
If you believe that there is a difference between the demands of the OT Law upon Israel, and the removal of the Law after the Death of Christ, then you hold to a form of dispensationalism.

Dispensationalism merely recognizes the differences of God's dealing with men during different periods of time. Those who do not hold to dispensationalsim focus on the similarities, and overlook the obvious.
Yes, faith is required from Genesis to Revelation. I understand and accept that. But faith in what?
In the OT, under the Law, the offerings were REQUIRED, period. There is no getting around that fact. God wrote an entire book about the OT sacrificial ceremonial system - Leviticus. They were REQUIRED to worship at the Temple (or Tabernacle).
We are no longer required to offer ANY sacrifices, or go to any "holy" place, or keep any of the OT feasts.
That is a difference between the OT and NT.
Now what I just wrote was one very simple and very obvious difference.
Dispensationalism merely seeks to identify and understand these differences, and identify the time periods these differences existed in.
Some things remain the same, but not all things.
Some people try to split the dispensational hairs to closely.
Some people try to blur all the lines of distinction.

But to say that everything is the exact same from Genesis to Revelation is absurd.
Here is another example. Are we required to build an Ark to save our families? Noah was. If he had not built the Ark, he would have drowned with everyone else. Thus, the way God dealt with Noah, and the way God deals with us is different. Noah did not have any written Scripture. We do. God spoke directly to Noah, personally and audibly. God speaks to us today through the written word of God, and leads us by the Holy Spirit. DIFFERENCES.

It is that simple.
Now, if you guys want to argue about it, fine - thats up to you.
As for me, I have better things to do.

Well, if the parents were really abusive and he was bullied at school I can almost understand why he exploded. If you think everyone hates you you will eventually strike out. Especially at that age. Remember, even Paul warned Christian fathers about provoking their children to wrath.

Is it?

I’m not into politics, because I’m not a fan of getting disappointed and my hope is in the return of Christ, not the return of conservatism (haha!) to the Republican party. At the same time I understand the responsibility to vote.

From what I've heard, Romney is a liberal, Gingrich is a tramp, and Paul doesn't support Israel. What business do I have as Bible believing Christian voting any of them?

At the same time Obama is a Communist. I enjoy having freedom, don't you?

Should I refuse to vote and then secretly breathe a sigh of relief when my state goes red (I live in Idaho), or should I vote even if it's one of the above three guys?

What's a guy supposed to do?

These are honest questions.

If they expect Afghanistan and the rest of the Middle East to become pro West/Democracy then they better burn every Koran they can because the two are not compatible.

You can still fish! It's great sport!

He is the fellowservant of John. That could be a lot of people, but wouldn't it be really interesting if it was Daniel?

God told Daniel to seal up the prophecy, and told John to open it up.

I like the Ungers Bible Dictionary

The first thought that came across my mind was, "Ut oh, here comes another endless debate between pre, a and post which will lead to nowhere".

Baseball. Go Phillies. Hope they don't break my heart again this year.

I'm also a huge Buffalo Bills fan but I've pretty much given up on ever seeing them win again.

I also like MMA, fishing (it is considered a sport), bowling and softball.

I played basketball, football, baseball and volleyball in my youth and volleyball was by far the most fun. I've also played in a beach volleyball league, softball and bowling leagues. I always found the co-ed leagues more fun to play because it wasn't as competive.

Now I don't do anything because I'm old and fat.

Did you only watch one movie? I've seen most of them over the years, especially in my childhood and youth, and he didn't prortray a bully in his movies. In most of his movies he was an American manly man with a touch of modern feminism softening him.

Have you ever watched Angel and the Badman?

My bedroom in the middle of summer with the air conditioner turned off will top any sauna or steam room easily.

John Wayne was a bully in his movies. You ever notice how he's always kicking some weakling in the rear end or dragging some woman around to teach her a lesson? Maybe I'm a wimp but he seemed to be a bully to me.

The goal is to create a nation of criminals. Lawyers, social workers and bureaucrats need to make money somehow.

Any of you that have a "smartphone" should download the Youversion bible app by lifechurch.tv from the android market. The best thing about this app is that you can listen to the bible. I used to have listen to the bible first by tape than by CD. The probelm with this was it was cubersome. The CD set had something like 30 discs in it. Not very user friendly. I highly recommend this. It's free and you'll be able to listen to the entire KJV off of your phone.

I think he was asking for a bible dictionary not a dictionary. There's a difference.

I mean if your husband/wife commits adultery or what if your husband/wife converts to another religion?

Is it ok then for a divorce?

You won't find a KJVOnly bible dictionary.

Inspired. Preserved. When speaking of the KJV the terms seem interchangeable to me. If the KJV is the preserved scripture without error then it also has to be the inspired scripture since ALL scripture was given by inspiration of God. If it's not inspired then you better stop calling it the scripture.

It was spoken by the prophets not written by the prohets.

The fact is, the ESV paints Jesus as being a liar, therefore, the statement in that translation that Jesus died, was buried and rose again the third day is false. It was not a lying Christ that died, was buried and rose again, but rather a sinless Christ.

One cannot lead another to a saving faith by pointing them to a false Christ.

There's a movie called Joyeux Noel that is based on the OP's story. It's a French film although there is English spoken in it. Very good movie though I'm sure some in here would object to it.

None of this will matter. Obama will win again by a landslide and everyone will go on with their lives forgetting all about these claims not caring.

Horse, dogs and monkeys are more intelligent creatures that God has created. This is why it is more difficult to eat them. Same with dolphins, cats and parrots. We usually eat dumb animals. The exception would be the pig which is a highly intelligent animal. Also, what John said above is correct.

Anyway, I thought horses were already used in dog food.

1 Peter 3:19-20

King James Version (KJV)


¹⁹By which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison;
²⁰Which sometime were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, eight souls were saved by water.
