    The Time We Live In : Gog and Magog

    I'm confused. I thought you were saying that was everyone? Is it the same as Isaiah 66? And they will bring all your brothers from all the nations as a gift to the Lord on horses and chariots and wagons, on mules and camels, to My holy mountain Jerusalem,” says the Lord, “just as the...

    The Time We Live In : Gog and Magog

    The relationship between the Ten Commandments, the Sabbath, and the New Covenant

    If we say we are to keep this law from Leviticus and not that one, we are performing a judgment on the law.

    It looks like a command given to Moses counts as a commandment of God Numbers 4:49 According to the commandment of the Lord they were counted by Moses, everyone according to his service and according to his burden. Thus they were counted by him, as the Lord commanded Moses

    Hey Fred, you're back! Myself, I didn't assume you were a Seventh-Day Adventist, I carefully said "many seventh day observers" Do you believe we have a reliable text of the Bible to work with? The allowance to eat whatever is sold in the store, is that just an accommodation? Do you see the...

    I'm thinking the synagogue wasn't open every day of the week. I don't think just anyone could decide to hold a meeting there. It would be at the invitation of the synagogue leaders, I would think But the marketplace in Athens was open every day, and Paul made full use of that he reasoned in...
