7 年Michael Cameron i must just tell you the following. It is not my intention to offend anybody. i am just a sinner saved by Grace and nothing more. i care for the souls of people that are being lied to. All my posts are based on facts and truth. Researched to the best of my ability, and the Truth happens to Glorify our LORD Jesus Christ. Rather point what you do not agree with and we can start a dialogue and iron out the facts based on evidence. i don't care if you like me. My responsibility is to be truthful. What individuals do with facts are really there own responsibility. Please raise what offended you so we can chat about it and get along. (Romans 14:12 KJV) So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God.

7 年Amen Brother (Romans 15:27 KJV)? It hath pleased them verily; and their debtors they are. For if the Gentiles have been made partakers of their spiritual things, their duty is also to minister unto them in carnal things. What verse of Romans 11 should i add? Let me also add this, This is Jesus Speaking. (Matthew 24:10 KJV)? And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.

7 年Great post Martin and all I want to add is: Romans 11 and Romans 15:27. The history contained in the Holy Bible represents the TRUTH and it is a good thing that you share the TRUTH from every platform available. God Bless you and your ministry.

7 年This is also an eductional platform is it not? So lets take the Bible and make it a history book. You will find it is 100% accurate in its recording and can be phisically profen. That would make it a book of absolute Truth. Notice i did not say anything in post article. Those are the Words of God, not my words. i am nothing, who cares what i say? That will not change the Word of God.
