I'm not saying that any of them say anything different. I'm saying that you can read and understand practically any other translation more easily. If your goal is to communicate what the bible says, you'll use something other that a 400+ year old translation that uses a form of English that no...

Niether did I. As indicated by Matthew's gospel. I'm sorry, Derf but there just isn't any way that Jesus was referring to anything other than His second coming. That's the sense you get from simply reading the text and there isn't anything other than someone's doctrine that would necessitate...

My comments were based on the passage in Matthew which reads.... Matthew 16:24 Then Jesus said to his disciples, “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me. 25 For whoever wants to save their life[f] will lose it, but whoever loses their life for...

The time line was set in place prophetically centuries before.

Of all the issues related to the dispensational differences between the Body of Christ and Israel, water baptism has to be the one where I give people on either side of the debate the widest tolerance for whichever position they happen to hold. When I was new to Mid-Acts Dispensationalism I was...

We do not know that Jesus is talking about Pentecost. It has the same problem as the theory you've presented concerning the transfiguration. Pentecost was only week or two away. Pentecost occurred 50 days after the resurrection which was only a week to ten days after the transfiguration which...

I still see no correlation between Peter's comment and Christ's prophecy! And you're right 6 days makes it far worse than if it had been six weeks! (I really don't know what's happening with my reading comprehension!!) Why would I ask Peter? Peter didn't give the prophesy, Jesus did. Why...

Okay, I was clearly not on my best footing yesterday! For some reason, I had it in my head that the "some standing here" prophecy was in Matthew 18, not Matthew 16 and I just forgot completely that God made the same "This is my beloved Son..." comment at the transfiguration that He had made in...

Peter was not making any reference to Jesus' statement. The transfiguration happened before Jesus' prophecy and it had nothing to do with Jesus coming in His Kingdom. Peter was talking about God the Son's coming in the flesh, (i.e. the incarnation) and more specifically, Peter is making direct...

Jesus didn't merely say that "the end was near", He explicitly stated that "there are some standing here who shall not taste death till they see the Son of Man coming in His kingdom." This was recorded in three of the four gospels, Matthew, Mark and Luke. I'm curious, how do you deal with that...

I think the forward most horizontal piece is the key. Hard to say for sure though.

Some people are REALLY into these puzzles!! If found a website that is crazy... http://www.robspuzzlepage.com/interlocking.htm#moreburrs On that page there is a chart of 25 pieces My puzzle includes pieces 1 (the key), 1024 (the Y), 824 & 975 (both of "the Offsets") & 911 (one of "the...

I'll use the spoiler tag when/if I post the solution!

I'm usually pretty good at puzzles but I cannot figure this one out. I spent another 45 minutes to an hour fiddling with it yesterday. You know that I've given up when I start looking for the solution online. I've looked and looked and cannot find a single example of this specific puzzle...

Well, God certainly knows his heart and can easily know the kinds of things he'd likely do if he was given the power and authority to do it. Also, we have to guard against looking at these predicted actions through modern day lenses. A prediction that a king "will set fire to their fortified...

It helps a great deal if you read it in modern English.... II Kings 8:7 Elisha went to Damascus, and Ben-Hadad king of Aram was ill. When the king was told, “The man of God has come all the way up here,” 8 he said to Hazael, “Take a gift with you and go to meet the man of God. Consult the Lord...

I've thought of exactly that - well something similar anyway! I know that the solid piece with no cutouts goes in last and that the square hole it goes into has no hidden voids once its in place. So far, that knowledge hasn't been of any help. I'll try again with that thought specifically in focus.

I need some help solving this puzzle. I've fiddled with it for hours and hours and I just cannot figure it out. I've looked online for solutions and it seems to be a quite unique version of this puzzle to the point that there isn't a single example of it anywhere online - until now, of...

I saw this on X the other day. It's nice to see someone standing up against an arrogant, left-wing reporter but the error that the President Ali made was to accept the reporter's premise. His defense was to talk about his country's carbon footprint and "gigatons of carbon" in his country's rain...

If it wasn't dead already, I was surely in hospice while I was growing up! So, on the subject of the death penalty for kids.... I'd say that if they are old enough to know what they're doing then they aught to be executed for the crimes they commit. So far, I see no evidence that suggests that...
