This is still true for some Churches established behind the "Iron Curtain " in the former Soviet Union. (Slovakia) They lived in constant fear and evangelism was an extremely scary proposition. (But commanded by God) To this day they require years of attendance and service before someone is...

Now a person not giving their life and heart but trying to live the lifestyle and fit in with the other Christians? That can take a minute or two. A year might not be enough. Wolves in sheep's clothing take a while to create.

They do not align with scriptures.... Supernatural origin is still suspect....all because they do not align with scriptures. If they had aligned....I would be all in. But since they don't.... I really don't care anything about this person claiming to be a prophetess or any story she has to...

Ummmm It can happen in less than a day. Even in less than an hour. YMMV.

Meaning I will believe Jesus and not her. Every Single Time. And the logic arguments I've put forward still make more sense than her visions.... No matter how much lipstick you put on it. You haven't given anything substantive yet that supports her or your perspective that hasnt been...

Maria Valtorta's writings are not scripture....never been considered scripture and are not published with scriptures. Not even Jerome considered her writings scriptures. Sorry....

Ya know? I know people spend time thinking such thoughts... But the reality is that it doesn't matter. The closest planet that possibly contains any sort of life in the form of bacteria is 128 light years away. Which if we were to try to travel to.... If somehow we were to create a ship that...

Well, I believe scriptures because God wrote them. Scriptures are a miracle all in themselves without any assistance from anyone. They have been tested relentlessly throughout the ages and withstood...still flawless today. Maria? Not so much.. Anything and anyone else is of course going...

Women in the Ancient Near East were one half step above property. Kinda sad. They were bought and sold as daughters by their fathers. They also were sometimes "put away" by their husband's so they could afford another wife. Not legally divorced where the husband would give the wife the...

Other thoughts on this passage.... Is that Jerome had an accident when assembling the scriptures. He lost this section and later it was erroneously inserted into John. However, internal evidence suggests that it truly belongs in Mark. Tradition has made it hold this place especially since...

I understand where you got your thoughts and beliefs about the subject. But if the Scribes, Pharisees, and etc were trying to get Jesus to stone this woman as if she was guilty of Adultery without going through the LAW of Moses....then they were guilty doubly so of breaking the Law. (As also...

It's a popular theory....based on Jesus's words. "Those innocent among you be the one to cast the first stone" However.... There are carefully worded laws in Leviticus and Deuteronomy that line out in exacting detail how to treat a woman accused of Adultery....including the testi.ony of her...

Unfortunately most of the world believes the old adage "Might makes right". Meaning if you are stronger whatever you want to be right and good is what is right and good. It doesn't matter what it is either.

My grandfather was an electrician and helped wire up the Benicia refinery 50 years ago....it was "shell" refinery at the time. It's seen many fires and explosions since. It's also expanded and increased production capabilities. It's a shame that they are closing it. California is in...

My wife does something similar.... She will put on a nice blouse and jewelry but then have on sweatpants. That's if she has meetings....otherwise it's often a houseboat and slippers she works in.

Samuel.... He was a master class in sarcasm and dry wit. He had a biting sense of humor unmatched by anyone. He regularly made people feel stupid for having a lack of faith or doing things appropriately according to the laws. He has zero trouble hearing from God. None whatsoever. And when...

They spent all this money making the series but couldn't afford $20 for some hair dye to make David a red-head? Then there's Jesse as well as David's personalities. The book of Samuel is a limerick of opposites compared. Eli (the high priest) who never bothered to teach, preach, or even...

Goliath himself? Nobody used a spear as a javelin....they were used more as a pike and not a throwing weapon. Then the Armor he wore is completely wrong. Needs more bronze and in smaller pieces.

The series was filmed in Greece instead of Israel or Palestinian territories. It's used some poetic license to flesh out the story. My first thoughts: "At least they aren't all speaking Elizabethan Olde English".

House of David is a "made for Prime Video" series depicting King David in the early years while he was a boy. And I wanted to discuss this series.... The ONLY reason why I am watching it is because members of my Sunday School class have gotten caught up in it. They want to watch David get...
