Christ came to fulfill the law. There were three (maybe four) types of laws. There were dietary, moral, societal, and ceremonial laws. Dietary...
You need to stop looking at Revelation through the eyes of a dispensationalist. Get rid of your model and look at what the scripture says. The...
The scripture says that all will be resurrected. That means a reunification of body and soul. So yes, in either Hell or Heaven, you will have an...
The Mark will be on the Head an the Hands. The language (like most in Revelation) is symbolic. In Jewish culture of the time, the Head...
That makes more sense, but please allow me to rebutt. Pain comes in varied levels. I would not throw life away for anything. However, when we...
