    Looking realistically at ourselves.

    In the first century, Christians who learned directly from Jesus had to teach the same things they received. Those who learned from them, in turn, had to teach based on those same early teachings. Those were the received truths that had to be preached before the end. When those truths were no...

    The slander against the faithful apostle Paul

    Have you noticed that the virulent attack on Paul has become a trend on the biblical analysis networks? From my point of view, it is a maneuver by the enemies of the Scriptures that seems to be affecting many Christians. Some anti-Christians masquerading as biblical scholars are dedicating...

    Did they really "WORSHIPPED" Jesus?

    Some examples of the use of the same word translated "worship" (all the time) by some translators: The astrologers who came from the east (Matt. 2:2,11); Peter and the others in the boat when Jesus calms the waves and the wind and walks on the sea (Matt. 14:33); the two women when he appears to...

    Jesus' God

    Jesus appears to John in a vision over three decades after his ascent to heaven, and told him: Rev. 3:12 ‘The one who conquers—I will make him a pillar in the temple of my God, and he will by no means go out from it anymore, and I will write upon him the name of my God and the name of the city...

    When did this happen?

    What do you think about when this did happen: Hebrews 1:4 So he has become better than the angels to the extent that he has inherited a name more excellent than theirs. 1) Did that happen when Jesus was begotten (i.e. at the moment of his origin)? 2) Did that happen when he was exalted and...

    Modern Scholars Spreading Doubts About the Bible's Reliability: Moses and the Pentateuch

    Since the beginning of the 19th Century there has been a tendency in intellectual circles around the world to deny the inspiration of the Bible and what is known about human history based on the information it contains. For example, the real existence of Moses and his involving in the writing...

    Will be the planet Earth destroyed by Jesus?

    One idea that heavily influences some believers' interpretation of passages that refer to the future is the idea that planet earth will be destroyed by Jesus when he comes to judge this human system of things that is being run by Satan and his spirits. BUT: Does the Bible really say that the...

    John said: AFTER THIS I SAW A GREAT CROWD.

    Telling about the visions of the future that Jesus revealed to John, he says: Rev. 7:9 After this I saw, and look! a great crowd, which no man was able to number, out of all nations and tribes and peoples and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, dressed in white robes; and...

    The "other" resurrection

    The Bible speaks of a "first resurrection" in Rev. 20:4, and in the context it speaks of others coming to life later. Rev. 20:4 And I saw thrones, and those who sat on them were given authority to judge. Yes, I saw the souls of those executed for the witness they gave about Jesus and for...

    The Kingdom of God in Christ

    The teaching of the kingdom of God is central to Christian preaching. It refers to Jesus ascending to heaven and receiving a kingdom, later returning to earth and exercising his ruling power over humanity. Jesus would receive his kingdom while his enemies were still alive. Psal. 110:1 Jehovah...

    THE JUDGMENT DAY

    Is a JUDGMENT DAY coming upon all living humans, or not? What do you think? What awaits this current human system? What will happen after that on earth? KEY TEXT: Acts 17:31 Because he has set a day in which he purposes to judge the inhabited earth in righteousness by a man whom he has...

    What have you heard about the thousand year reign of Christ?

    Let's talk about it here. Rev. 20 is the passage that explains more about the millennium. Some biblical scholars and theologians, among the plethora of them with different and contradictory ideas existing in modern Christendom, have come to think that those thousand years are not even a real...

    Scholars can be dangerous to our faith

    Because the world's believers in their vast majority do not have a really reliable spiritual and theological direction, they tend to take scholars graduated from theological schools as their teachers, thinking that they will be able to strengthen their faith by listening to what they have been...

    "Kings and Priests"

    The Bible says that the 144,000 (Rev. 7:3,4) will be chosen from among humans to be "kings and priests" together with Jesus, their brother. Rom. 8:28 We know that God makes all his works cooperate together for the good of those who love God, those who are the ones called according to his...

    Resurrection on earth

    What hope did Jehovah offer his servants before Christ? Let's see what Daniel's hope was when he was very old: "But as for you, go on to the end. You will rest, but you will stand up for your lot at the end of the days" (Dan. 12:13).

    On the pre-existence of Jesus

    Based on what you have learned or been taught, how would you respond to this question: Did the disciples recognize that Jesus had lived in heaven before being born as a human? Later I'll post about what I've learned in my Bible study on that matter. PS: Whichever you answer, please prove it...

    What do you think it happens when Jesus died?

    That is the question: what do you think it happens when Jesus died? Let's talk about it ... Please use the Scriptures in a smart manner, and use the logic in your argument, so we understand clearly what you believe and how you try and prove it with the Bible. I think that when Jesus died...

    GOD in the OT and GOD in the NT

    Let's call Jehovah the name of God in the OT, as it is the name in English. In the Greek manuscripts of the NT that we have so far we do not find the Hebrew name of GOD, although in Hebrew translations of the NT it does appear. Is the Hebrew GOD, Jehovah, mentioned in the NT in any other way...

    Where did they invent that I AM is some name of God?

    I don't read in any Hebrew Scripture that God says His name is I AM. Who gave that name to God?

    Be born again to be whose child?

    Nobody is born when he wants to. Nobody adopts his father, but some persons go to look for the child to adopt. This "born again" thing became a joke for most Christians out there. Let's talk about being born again from the biblical point of view. First thing first: being born to be whose child?
