Revelation 3:18 - White Raiment ]]> http://sabdiscussionboard.yuku.com/topic/4700/t/8-Revelation-3-18-White-Raiment.html
Response: Notice that Jesus said the people of the congregation at Laodicea were to buy these things rather than to receive them as free gifts. They represented spiritual things that the congregation needed to work on. Refined gold with the dross removed was spiritual wealth. Eye salve represented a cure for their spiritual blindness.

Response: The number 7 represents completeness. At Revelation 1:4 the seven spirits of God are before his throne. Seven messages are given to listen to what the spirit (Jesus) says to the congregations. (Revelation 2:7, 11, 17, 29; 3:6, 13, 22) These seven spirits are the seven elders of the seven congregations under the headship of Jesus Christ who is under the headship of Jehovah God himself.

"Reins" are kidneys. So someday Jesus will be searching through your kidneys, if he hasn't done it already.

Response: Kidneys are not used figuratively today the way the heart still is often used, but in Bible the Hebrew and Greek they were applied figuratively to indicate the innermost aspects of ones personality.

Response: In the Bible darkened eyes represent unseeing (Romans 11:10) so the symbolism here applies to Jesus' blazing eyes that see everything that may bring figurative darkness to the congregation.

No evidence exists indicating that the people of Bible times could harden pure copper by tempering, though they could harden the cutting edge of tools by cold... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (Daystar) http://sabdiscussionboard.yuku.com/topic/4690 Sat, 07 Nov 2009 08:42:53 GMT <![CDATA[ 4.

Response: This is no mere flesh wound.

Response: Not literally the seat, or throne, depending upon the translation, of Satan the devil. Pergamum was situated in the center of cult emperor and nationalistic worship.

Response: The Hebrew malakh and Greek aggelos can be translated as angel or messenger. At Malachi 2:7, for example a Levite priest is called a "messenger" (Hebrew malakh). Normally when these words apply contextually to spirit creatures they are translated as "angels" and when to humans they are translated as "messengers."

John 21:25

And there are also many other things which Jesus did, the which, if they should be written every one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that should be written. Amen.

HAHA! Why should I believe anything in the Bible when it contains such obviously ridiculously exaggerated statements like this one?

There were two trees in the garden of Eden. The tree of knowledge of good and evil and the tree of life. God only told Adam and Eve not to eat of the tree of good and evil. They were free to eat from the tree of life.

After planting the trees God told them they would surely die on the day they ate from the first tree.

"The Greek teaching of the immortal soul wasn't a part of those Christian teachings until later"

Thank you for admitting that Christianity has been an culturally evolving collection of ideas stolen from predecessors.

Now if only you can admit what that means, i.e.: its all in the minds of people, not a divine being. ]]> feeds@yuku.com (busterggi) http://sabdiscussionboard.yuku.com/topic/4648 Fri, 16 Oct 2009 14:47:28 GMT <![CDATA[ First Resurrection (Revelation 20:4-6) ]]> http://sabdiscussionboard.yuku.com/topic/4645/t/First-Resurrection-Revelation-20-4-6-.html
Those who don't worship the beast will become priests and reign with Christ for 1000 years. The rest of the dead will remain dead until the 1000 years is over.

Response: Revelation 20:4 refers to the holy ones mentioned at Daniel 7:13, 14, 18, the 24 elders mentioned at Revelation 4:4, including the apostles. (Matthew 19:28) Those mentioned in 20:4 have already been tested and have refused Satan's temptation.

Jesus has white hair, eyes of fire, feet of brass, and has a sword sticking out of his mouth.

Response: The Book being symbolic, gives Jesus with white hair, which of course, represents wisdom. (Proverbs 16:31) Eyes of fire represent a searching.

"The evidence. Lets take the flood. The Bible makes later references as to it being a literal event. Noah wasn't a legend he was listed in the genealogy, Jesus speaks of it as an historical event, Peter makes reference to the water vapor canopy.

They found in the land of Anak, a cluster of grapes so bi that it took two men to carry it back to Moses.Ahuh,Right.

Second, what is this topic is about: in Nehemiah 2:8 Nehemiah get a letter in which the king approves him to rebuild Jerusalem.
