    Strange teachings

    RIght. The feasts clarify the finished work of Christ. They are the time lines that Jesus followed the first time and will again at His second coming.

    Strange teachings

    Usually I answer the OP, but what you say caught my eye with a bit of humor. Years back I started observing feast days in Leviticus 23 and if for no other reason, it's to give God His time and it's a valuable lesson as to the redemption of mankind. As Paul stated it's "shadows of things to...

    Was Jesus sent to rule as the Messiah or was he sent to die for the sins of humanity?

    Both. The latter at His first Coming and the former at His Second Coming. Jews only saw the former criteria for Messiah, thus Jesus was a total failure due to their concept of Messiah. But His coming the first time to die was to defeat Satan, pay the penalty of sin, and open up the way for men...

    Please pray for Australia (even a short prayer?)

    I'll pray and I noticed the traditional Commonwealth nations are in trouble these days, throwing morality out the window it seems. Once being the greatest empire in history, I fear not too many understand what is going on and how that was just tossed aside to the likes of the Wokeness and other...

    Beware of Crypto "Investment" Schemes!

    I noticed you said hospital. That's a lot of the problem. Many use outdated Microsoft operating systems which is extremely insecure to begin with, let alone something that is not updated any longer. I know. My wife works in the medical field billing and I can attest to that. Fortunately for...

    Beware of Crypto "Investment" Schemes!

    Prophecy aside, the pragmatic issues of crypto and similar electronic transactions is the lack of security and privacy. With all the phishing and hacking and in some cases malware out there the whole thing will rapidly become a cluster flock. We see that now with credit cards, etc being stolen...

    Where in the Bible are we told to pray to the Holy Spirit?

    Well, Christ is a title (anointed one), again a description much like "King" - technically all Christians are Christs. His name is יְהוֹשֻׁעַ meaning salvation. That's His very nature and essence. In the OT God has many names too, but אֱלֹהִים is not one of them (Genesis 1:1). That's a...

    Where in the Bible are we told to pray to the Holy Spirit?

    Yes, I know that. But you think a description is a name?

    Where in the Bible are we told to pray to the Holy Spirit?

    That's just my expression for understanding the differing points of view as opposed to a Trinitarian doctrine that would perhaps call into question such a person's faith. In other words, I won't do that no matter which way a person goes. But I agree 110% with you about praying FOR the Holy...

    Where in the Bible are we told to pray to the Holy Spirit?

    There is no case of a person praying to the Holy Spirit. I can normally give verses in a study, but how can I give something that's not there? For this reason, I am not too hard on people who have a different concept of the Holy Spirit, e.g. it's the power of God manifested as opposed to a...

    Jesus was not a Jew?

    Yes I believe what you do. But first, what is a Jew? The name is shorted from Judah, i.e those who were from the tribe or nation of Judah. That's one of the 12 tribes. Next of all, we have all sorts of genealogies that trace Jesus back to Judah (c.f. Genesis 49:8-12). King David came from...

    Is adding salt to your food good during heat spells?

    Yes, well then maybe the table salt is mined elsewhere (vs sea salt often by evaporation)? I know it's too harsh taken as is due to the other minerals that somehow buffer it. In other words, the reason they don't use that for saline solutions in the medical world. I take amino acid chelated...

    The dangers of intermittent fasting

    Various Holy Days (such as Day of Atonement), grief, or specific prayer (.e.g. National Day of Prayer) I believe the Christian should do some fasting. Of course what they are talking about here is ALTOGETHER DIFFERENT where one is perhaps trying to lose weight and get healthier. I cringe when...

    Is adding salt to your food good during heat spells?

    Yes, it's a good idea to add salt. The present recommendation of salt (especially for those who are out in the heat and activity) is too low between 1-2+ grams a day should be over double that even as high as 5-6 grams. However, table salt is refined salt, akin to refining flour and stripping...

    What Are The Old And New Testaments?

    One word: Notice the Old Testament ends with the word "curse" Notice the New Testament ends with the theme of "grace" Everyone who is under the Law (i.e. for salvation) is under a curse as Paul stated that by the Law no man would be justified, but is the knowledge of sin. It's the righteous...

    What does "born again" mean?

    Yes, that's my point exactly. I'm not sure how someone can have faith and then not make the effort at some point to do a simple command. Now, let's all hold that thought when the subject of the Law comes up that morally we are also obligated to keep that - not for salvation, but the Law defines...

    What does "born again" mean?

    Except for the many biblical verses that talk about family, sons (of God), inheritance, birthright, etc etc that it's no mystery that this creation mirrors what is going on in the spiritual realm, i.e. shadows of things to come as Paul stated about the feasts of the Lord. And don't forget the...

    What does "born again" mean?

    OK, now why did I say that? Because human reproduction mirrors what goes on in the spiritual world. If one destroys one understanding, they destroy the other. I stand by what I said. The subjects are indeed connected.

    What does "born again" mean?

    Yes, that's how some teach and I agree that one should be baptized "just in case" because it is a scriptural mandate. LOL As for baptism, compare to what John said about He who comes after me (how would he baptize?). Note that in order to be baptized, saving faith must already be present or...

    What does "born again" mean?

    With all due respect, you totally missed my point. Now read my post again carefully.
