Israel would not accept the Gentiles. "They will fall by the sword and will be taken as prisoners to all the nations. Jerusalem will be trampled on by the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled" (Luke 21:24). "I do not want you to be ignorant of this mystery, brothers and...

After Adam acquired knowledge of good and evil. Adam and Eve covered their bodies when they realized they were naked. So why do the Adamites hold services in the nude? The Adamites, or Adamians, were adherents of an Early Christian group in North Africa in the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th centuries...

Because I'm of the Adam that ate the forbidden fruit knowing good and bad.

Well I'm not Adamite. Plus do not believe in stark naked gatherings. But, do believe in having only one wife. Paul also wrote that Chrisitians should marry believers.

I believe God set an example with Adam and Eve. One wife.

The scripture deals with those that were brought to Jesus. I believe you have a further point to make with the word "all." "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life" (John 3:16). everyone πᾶς...

For online theology I like to use the https://biblehub.com/ which has the Berean Study Bible. For offline I am studying the Nelson Study Bible (NKJV). I have finished the NT and am now on 2 Chronicles. I use my old KJV Bible to look up references. Also studying "A theology of the New...

It does not have the word "only." Qualifications for Overseers (Titus 1:5–9; 1 Peter 5:1–4) 1This is a trustworthy saying: If anyone aspires to be an overseer, he desires a noble task. 2An overseer, then, must be above reproach, the husband of but one wife,a temperate, self-controlled...

"He must not take many wives for himself, lest his heart go astray" (Deut 17:17). The law said kings should not have many wives. But it did not work out that way. Also when a king made peace with another kingdom quite often they would marry a daughter of the other kingdom as an agreement to...

I do not see America being run by God. I see a lot of America going against God. "You adulterous people, don’t you know that friendship with the world means enmity against God? Therefore, anyone who chooses to be a friend of the world becomes an enemy of God" (James 4:4).

When God saved me from an alcoholic death I certainly did not feel like one of the elect. I was very grateful to be saved from my many sins.

Communion is to be held as Jesus told us. In remembrance of His sacrifice on the cross for us.

WOMAN 1. Prominence of Women: Under the Hebrew system the position of woman was in marked contrast with her status in surrounding heathen nations. Her liberties were greater, her employments more varied and important, her social standing more respectful and commanding. The divine law given on...

"And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus" (Phil. 4:7). Who has this "peace" and how did you acquire it.

It is a constant battle of the heart and mind. "...for the imagination of man's heart is evil from his youth.." (Gen. 8:21). "That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit" (Romans 8:4).

I believe they will.
