    The LGBTQ and other letters, are on this mission of changing the meaning of marriage. The Bible, is in their way, it’s surprise me, that you can’t see very far. Yes, you are missing something.

    Hugh_Flower got a reaction from MikeWatson1 in What is "non-dispensational"??   
    Hmm, Jerry when you mean Salvation, are we also talking about Jews going into Abraham’s bosom? Cause going into there I would disagree…  But being freed from there, into Heaven, I would agree is Jesus Christ giving them salvation. 
     
    Only reason I say this - Jews had no way of Knowing who/why they would be free other than knowing that their Lord their God is a loving God that wants to be with them. But the actual work of being liberated from this place of death would of had to of been by Christ.
    Psalm 18 for reference.

    Nope it’s definitely not sin for either one Jerry. Both are substances that may have cultural importance, and both can be abused. They are both addictive and may require a more precautious eye if a Christian wishes to steward his body more properly.

    Just want to point out that  Hebrews 1:14 is just declaring a service they provide for our Lord ( Ministering to those who will be heirs of salvation ), but this does not Imply this was the reason the where created. 
     
    Now in my opinion (and I bet we could
    prove this out through scripture) all the angels where created to give Glory to God and to worship him, and ministering to his will. I think Hebrews 1:14 would just be a part of their service to him. 
     
    In that fashion Angels could be pre-existing to our world.

    Hugh_Flower reacted to Jerry in Dr. Gene Kim   
    What is that supposed to mean? I only preach and teach from the King James Bible. Though I do use the preserved text and associated resources (like Strong's Concordance) to dig in deeper, just as I also use Webster's 1828 Dictionary to help define the English words of my KJV.
    In English, I only support/endorse the King James Bible, though I am not against using the underlying Greek and Hebrew text for studying purposes, nor am I against any sound TR-based translations into other languages. I do not use them myself, except mostly for comparison purposes (like if I was speaking with a spanish-speaking person and I wanted to point out something to them in Spanish, etc.). God did not inspire the underlying Hebrew and Greek manuscripts and then cast them aside - they are still useful today in some ways.
    And for the sake of clarification, so no one can accuse me falsely: I HAVE NEVER NOR WILL EVER use the underlying texts or any Greek or Hebrew (or even English) language tools to correct, change or question the English text of my King James Bible, but only use them inasmuch as they help me understand and dig in deeper into the Word of God. If they contradict or question or change the KJV in any sense, I discard them inasmuch as they do so (and in some cases, discard them completely if needed).
    I believe my King James Bible is (not was) God's inspired, inerrant Word for the English-speaking people today, and I am FULLY subject to its authority in my life. I do not question or doubt it in any sense, though I do study it to understand it more and apply it. I have no use for any other modern translations - not even any "updating" of the KJV, aside from checking them out to be fully aware of their flaws and how they fall short of God's preserved Word in English.

    Sorry, but I'd need more sufficient evidence. I have family in not only the military, but also in the medical and research fields, and though this is possible, it doesn't seem plausible. I'm not saying they're lying, but, I am saying there needs to be more credible sources and reports. I don't trust the MSM but I also don't trust people who have gone too far over to "the other side." Both are just as guilty of inciting panic in people.

    Because what is being referred to happens after that. Hm, I thought you knew all the answers!
    However, this:
    Matthew 24:29-31 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken: And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.
    does not automatically equal this: church age saints. This passage is referring to the time of Jacob's trouble (referring to in Jeremiah 30:7) and the elect here are those Jews who get saved during the events of the tribulation. THIS passage (one among several) is referring to the church:
    Revelation 3:10 Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth.
    And this:
    Romans 5:9 Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.
    And this (primary context is eternal wrath, but God's wrath in the tribulation period also applies):
    1 Thessalonians 1:10 And to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, even Jesus, which delivered us from the wrath to come.

    Yes, totally. The people freaking out about God's wrath are the unbelievers - specifically those that are already damned to Hell because they received the mark of the beast. Which doesn't disagree with anything I've said here. The true believers of the church age will already be gone before the Lord God pours out His wrath on the earth. Many people will get saved during this time, though those verses are not referring to them.

    I Hope these illegal immigrants have a better chance of hearing the gospel here. 
     
    Also, it’s not a God given right that we live in the same America that our forefathers lived in. I don’t support law breaking but I also want all people to be saved, and to be frank these people are leaving a country that is still ruled by Rome more than ours, and they are leaving to a place that is still more accessible to the Gospel. 
     
    Even if our country becomes full socialist and communist, the gospel will still be spread.

    Hugh_Flower reacted to Jerry in Large Block Capital Letters in KJV   
    That I agree with. The Holy Spirit definitely guided the KJV translators to translate exactly as He wanted them to.
    That being said, I 100% am against the idea that there is somehow advanced revelation in the KJV that the underlying texts do not have. I am KJV only because it is exactly the same (in English) as the preserved Hebrew and Greek texts.
    And for those who try to confuse the issue by saying which texts. The preserved Greek and Hebrew texts are not a great conglomeration of scrolls like the Critical Text. There is only one main Hebrew Text (ie. I think it is called the Ben Chayyim Masoretic Text - I might have the exact name or the spelling wrong), and there are several preserved Greek texts, with very minimal differences between them (and I personally do not know what these supposed differences are). I use Scrivener's, which is a reconstructed text giving the exact readings we have in the KJV. There is also Stephanus' 1550 Greek TR, but no one has ever shown me any readings that contradict my KJV.
    I have a serious problem with this above study. Bro West seems to have a VERY BAD habit of winging it and making up his own theology or views that he expects other people to accept without any Scripture to back it up. Making some theology or grand points because of some of the capitalized text in the Bible is foolish. They are signs or names. AND, if God was really trying to emphasize something specifically because these words were capitalized, they would take into account ALL capitalized names/titles in the whole Word of God, not just some. I have listed others above that he has not even included or commented upon.
    Yes, most of these are names of God/Christ, as each context shows - and it is important or significant in each passage, just like Revelation 17 shows the importance of knowing and identifying MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH. However, I do not make some conclusion based on picking and choosing which ones fit my theory OR think that they teach some kind of advanced revelation.
    Bro West, you missed the boat, fell overboard, and are being carried headlong over Heresy Falls. Better cling to the Book, the Word of God and learn what Exegesis is (ie. bringing out of the Bible what is already in there), and stop trying to apply Eisegesis (ie. putting into the Bible what you want).
