THE LAST QUESTION

[~SPIRITBLADE~]

"When I return, will I find FAITH-?"

i know the answer, however that isn't doing you any good- (and apparently i'm not allowed to answer for you).

Praise the Lord!

I believe the answer to why the question is asked is because as we draw closer to the time of Christ's appearing, more and more will depart from the faith.

1 Timothy 4:1 NOW the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils.

yes, but WHY-?

It is not the type of question that I believe he was wanting a yes or no answer to. It was a question given to make us think. He knows the answer to all things, so he certainly doesn't need for us to clear things up in his mind. People will go more and more into heretical end times doctrines, and it is to make us think when we see this coming to pass. Look at the next verses from 1 Timothy 4:2-5

2 Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their consceince seared with a hot iron;

3 Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth.

4 For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused,if it be received with thanksgiving:

5 For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.

The point is that people will depart from the true faith in the end times. Not everyone, but likely a great number if not the vast majority.

yes, i agree, the question is posed TO MAKE YOU THINK.

Having said that, WHY-?

SOMETHING HAPPENS, (or rather doesn't happen) to make that an earnest query,

why is there a great falling away- why-?

[Ovedya]

Apostacy.

[~SPIRITBLADE~]

Apostacy.

of course, but that isn't the 'why', that is the RESULT.

again i ask 'WHY-?"

Again, I answer "apostacy." It's both a nound and a verb.

kinda wierd, both of you being named Eric-lol

my agenda is TRUTH, (that should be EVERYONE'S agenda)-

however obviously not

i am COMMANDED RIGHTEOUS JUDGEMENT, i accept that even i alone, may be the only Christian who observes the commands of his Father.

if i speak falsely, it wouldn't be accepted, (THAT MAKES SENSE)

yet i speak the Word of God, and it isn't accepted, (that IS evil)

why can't scri[pture be honored on the forum

why is the WORD of God, made as though dead-?

i'm confused, and i pray you are aswell, (because if you are CERTAIN THE WORD OF GOD CANNOT BE DISCUSSED HERE-yes, i would questuion alot more than just a forum posting...

[Ovedya]

Ah...yeah.....That's enough for me.

Closed.
