    Matthew 26:39

    Hello QuaestorRexRegis Do you think he said this out of fear of suffering and death? Seems logical I suppose, coming from the logic of a man. Had it occurred to you that he said that for a totally different reason? :???: All Praise The Ancient Of Days

  7. Hello All I posted this in another section but I thought it was relevant to this section also so here it is again. I posted earlier trying to find out more information on the teachings of the man Hymenaeus. I wish to thank those who replied to it. This man is mentioned twice in Timothy. TIMOTHY 1:18-20 "18 This charge I commit to you, son Timothy, according to the prophecies previously made concerning you, that by them you may wage the good warfare, 19having faith and a good conscience, which some having rejected, concerning the faith have suffered shipwreck, 20of whom are Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I delivered to Satan that they may learn not to blaspheme." TIMOTHY 2:14-19 "14 Remind them of these things, charging them before the Lord not to strive about words to no profit, to the ruin of the hearers. 15Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. 16But shun profane and idle babblings, for they will increase to more ungodliness. 17And their message will spread like cancer. Hymenaeus and Philetus are of this sort, 18who have strayed concerning the truth, saying that the resurrection is already past; and they overthrow the faith of some. 19Nevertheless the solid foundation of God stands, having this seal: "The Lord knows those who are His," and, "Let everyone who names the name of Christ[3] depart from iniquity."" Now we are told in the book of revelations Revelations 13: 18

  9. The Messiah freed a lot of people from demons did they have the Spirit? NO. The Spirit came after the Messiah had left. Therefore you do not need the Spirit to have demons removed. All Praise The Ancient Of Days
  10. Thanks for that blindseeker In your reply there was commentary from Adam Clarke. "Adam Clarke's Commentary He that is self-confident is already half fallen. He who professes to believe that God will absolutely keep him from falling finally, and neglects watching unto prayer, is not in a safer state. He who lives by the moment, walks in the light, and maintains his communion with God, is in no danger of apostasy." This paragraph seems to suggest Hymenaeus had something to do with the Predestination Calvinism? From the site you gave they did not have much to add but this caught my eye. "3. Incipient Gnosticism: This teaching of Hymeneus had been so far successful: it had "overthrown the faith of some" (2 Timothy 2:18). It is impossible to define exactly the full nature of this heresy, but what Paul says regarding it makes evident that it was a form of incipient Gnosticism. This spiritualizing of the resurrection sprang from the idea of the necessarily evil nature of all material substance. This idea immediately led to the conclusion of the essentially evil nature of the human body, and that if man is to rise to his true nature, he must rid himself of the thralldom, not of sin, but of the body. This contempt for the body led to the denial of the resurrection in its literal sense; and all that Christ had taught on the subject was explained only, in an allegorical sense, of the resurrection of the soul from sin." This again sounds like a Calvinism like theory of total depravity? hummm I think that is what they call it I hope more people who have knowledge will add their input All Praise The Ancient Of Days
  11. Hello All I need help from those among you who are well read or know others who are well read to please give me information on a man called Hymenaeus? He is spoken of in TIMOTHY. Can anyone show me what his teachings where? Timothy did not go into it very deeply, I was hoping there may be someone who has or knows someone who has optained a more detailed historical recording of these teachings.
  12. Hello all We must be very careful about dreams. I have had dreams about great meteorite showers causing great destruction to our world. I have had dreams about mountains ranges splitting and erupting a great eruption of lava. BUT they are only my dreams; did they come from my own imagination? Or from somewhere else?. Be very fearful to call your dreams messages or visions from The Ancient Of Days. They may not be. All Praise The Ancient Of Days
  13. Hi everyone The Messiah has freed us from the penalty of sin, so we do not need to worry about the bad things we have done, but we must still try our best to avoid doing wrong. We are covered for all sins we have done and will do if we repent them and try not to do them again, but we are not covered for the Good things the Messiah told us to do that we fail to do. Matthew 25:31-46
  14. QuaestorRexRegis Hello Regis you are really throwing them at us Ok you are still vague in your questions but I will have a go at explaining the passage. LUKE 16:19-31 19 "There was a certain rich man who was clothed in purple and fine linen and fared sumptuously every day. 20But there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, full of sores, who was laid at his gate, 21desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell[4] from the rich man's table. Moreover the dogs came and licked his sores. 22So it was that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels to Abraham's bosom. The rich man also died and was buried. 23And being in torments in Hades, he lifted up his eyes and saw Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom. 24"Then he cried and said, "Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus that he may dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.' 25But Abraham said, "Son, remember that in your lifetime you received your good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things; but now he is comforted and you are tormented. 26And besides all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed, so that those who want to pass from here to you cannot, nor can those from there pass to us.' 27"Then he said, "I beg you therefore, father, that you would send him to my father's house, 28for I have five brothers, that he may testify to them, lest they also come to this place of torment.' 29Abraham said to him, "They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them.' 30And he said, "No, father Abraham; but if one goes to them from the dead, they will repent.' 31But he said to him, "If they do not hear Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded though one rise from the dead."' You asked "Jesus used this phrase in His story about the rich man and Lazarus - not only what does it mean (too simple to just say O.T. writings), but how would that have warned them of Hades? " It was a Parable regis The brothers would not heed the scriptures. If they did then they would go out and help the poor like Lazarus. The Messiah was saying that those who do not care to follow the word will receive no help from The Ancient Of Days. There are some who do not care to read the word (Bible) or if they do they will not follow the teachings therein. They want a personal audience with the Ancient Of Days before they will follow the teachings of the Messiah. The Ancient Of Days helps those who help themselves. Read this passage Matthew7:7-12 7 "Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. 8For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened. 9Or what man is there among you who, if his son asks for bread, will give him a stone? 10Or if he asks for a fish, will he give him a serpent? 11If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask Him! 12Therefore, whatever you want men to do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets. The point of this passage is that you must. Ask, Seek, and knock. before it will be opened to you. How do we Ask, Seek and Knock? Simple we must pray to the Ancient of Days for understanding we must read the Guidance Given to us by the Messiah. If we do this with the right attitude, humbling ourselves to follow and do what the Messiah told us to do then The Ancient of Days through the Spirit will Guide us through dreams, our cousiounce and our brothers in faith. Hope I have helped you QuaestorRexRegis By asking questions you are doing what the Messiah said to do, Continue on reading asking and praying and repeat it again and again and again unto death do you part. May the Spirit open our eyes to the Truth. All Praise The Ancient Of Days

    Rapture

    Hello all I did not think much about when the Rapture would take place. I only know that it will. My initial hope was for a pre trib rapture because in my own way of thinking I thought to myself what purpose does it serve The Ancient Of Days for his true believers to suffer the tribulation. But as I have listened to the debate both here and on other sites I am now confident that there will be no PreTrib rapture. We will have a purpose during the tribulation to witness the truth of the Messiah to those who come to understand the evil that controls this world. There is a great trap in placing your faith in a pre trib rapture. If one knows they are going to get caught in a storm they will make preparations. If one sees the storm coming and tells oneself
  17. Hi thunder "I wasn't trying to pinpoint the exact day, which I believe it is impossible to know anyway. And secondly, I didn't want others trying to figure it out either. " I see your point. But if you know the date of his resurrection and if you know the number of years (biblical) that have passed since then, than you can work out the date of the 2000 anniversary of his resurrection. This is why in my post I alluded to "Then again it might be 2000 years after the Messiah was lifted to heaven?" My thinking goes if someone actually thought out the true date of the 2000th anniversary of the resurrection of our Messiah than that date would not be the date of the second coming. Because the bibles says no one will know the date. With this in mind I looked for a significant happening that cannot be accurately dated and that is the Ascension of Our Messiah. So if you think you can work out the 2000th anniversary of the resurrection I say go for it. As long as you do not state or believe that it is the date of the second coming then it is not sin to do so. Do you understand what I am getting at? I certainly would love to know the date of the 2000th anniversary of our Messiahs resurrection. All Praise The Ancient Of Days
  18. Revelation 17:7 "But the angel said to me "why did you marvel." I will tell you the mystery of the woman AND OF THE BEAST THAT CARRIES her, which has the seven heads and 10 horns." So the woman is not the beast she is carried (supported) by the beast. There is another woman talked of in revelation she is described as a bride not like the Harlot above the bride represents people with true faith, the Harlot is false religion she is the catholic church and all other false Christian doctrines. All Praise The Ancient Of Days
  19. About the second part of your post (getting out of her) "Re 18:4 - And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues." That to me refers to the harlot who is supported by the beast, that harlot who sits on mant waters. That is the catholic church, In fact I see her representing all false Christianity. It is a call to Gods people who are still apart of that church to get out of her before it is destroyed. All Praise The Ancient Of Days
  20. Hello Blindseeker I have heard that theory that the USA is the last beast of prophesy, You are the first American I have heard state that opinion. It reinforces to me that you are truly free from Patriotism and for that I praise The Ancient Of Days. Well done brother. My view of the beast is more expansive than yours, I will explain. I see the USA as not being the beast but being one of the 10 horns that are a part of it. I have put it in righting on another site so I will just cut and paste it here, sorry I'm a lazy person. Letter Lissy The Horns in prophesy mean races of people, here below Daniel saw a vision of a two horned ram.
  21. Went to the other page, I have seen it just before I came here You seem to be fighting an uphill battle against those blinded by patriotism I like what you said "I like God more than America" yes I think that is what you said I like you more now. Anyway I thought of posting on that thread but I don't like banging my head against a brick wall, I do not have the energy for such debates hmmm no Arguments which is what you always ends up with when you talk to people who place their nation before God. Anyway Good luck with them. You are not completely wasting your time people will see that debate and may be swayed by your points but I'm sure you will have no success with those patriots your debating/arguing with they seem too far gorn. All Praise the Ancient Of Days
  22. I belong to the Nation of The Ancient of Days, But I happen to currently exist on the continent of Australia it is 5.00 pm hear so I'm not a night time seeker. Always interested in truth. It is good that you are not Blinded by patriotisim it is only another tool that satan uses to lead men to destruction. All Praise The Ancient Of Days
  23. rollinTHUNDER I have had the same theory as you that 2000 year anniversary after the resurrection would be a significant day, Then again it might be 2000 years after the Messiah was lifted to heaven? I tried to convert the 365.25 day years to 360 but I started from 33 BC anyway the problem is that the current calendar has not been active since the time of his resurrection so you cannot simply convert 1970 x 365.25 to biblical years. Also when the calendar was changed I think 10 days where added or taken away from time. Have you thought or has this discrepancy been revealed to you? It says that no one will know the Day of his coming, but it also says that the wise ones will know the times I like you think the time is near, Very near. All Praise The Ancient Of Days
  24. Well politicians are really puppets anyway. It also shows the vanity of scientists who think they can influence how their abominable creations are used. They have an ocean of Intelligence but not one drop of wisdom. PS Are you American? You are up pretty late at night if you are.
  25. 1) FREE WILL I have it, You have it and Priests who molest children have it. We are not zombies, God did not create us as Zombies. From the day we found out about good and evil suffering has been going on. There is nothing new under the sun. 2) I do not place my trust in Churches, Priests, Politicians or any other earthly organization. I suggest you do likewise, get out of her before you are caught up in her judgment. PS: Don't worry the Messiah will soon come I'm sure, But our world is going to get a lot worse before it gets better brother. Those that have the true faith will hold on till the end, Those that have been deceived will fall 10000 to my right 10000 to my left. Where are you at now? All Praise The Ancient Of Days
