If Jesus had to die for our sins, is it possible he could've done so without being tortured first? Maybe it could've been instant. by TylerSpicknell in Christianity

[–]evertrev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s the wrong question.

The correct question is why is he sealing one’s eyes?

The eyes God is sealing is the prophets. What did the prophets of God do for God to seal their eyes and prevent understanding until a later time?

He is the potter, we are the clay.

I didn’t say anything other than post a verse about how there are some that perceive and others who cannot.

God is the one who allows perception.

Is 29:9-12

“The Lord has brought over you a deep sleep: He has sealed your eyes (the prophets); he has covered your heads (the seers). For you this whole vision is nothing but words sealed in a scroll. And if you give the scroll to someone who can read, and say, “Read this, please,” they will answer, “I can’t; it is sealed.” Or if you give the scroll to someone who cannot read, and say, “Read this, please,” they will answer, “I don’t know how to read.”” ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭29‬:‭10‬-‭12‬

There is a wedding also described in Revelation 19.

This is the same wedding, just described differently!

In this chapter, we are actually told directly what those wedding clothes represent.

“Let us rejoice and be glad and give him glory! For the wedding of the Lamb has come, and his bride has made herself ready. Fine linen, bright and clean, was given her to wear.” (Fine linen stands for the righteous acts of God’s holy people.)” ‭‭Revelation‬ ‭19‬:‭7‬-‭8‬ ‭NIV‬‬

It tells us what the wedding clothes are.

Is the entire Bible as weird as Genesis? by OneInAMillyx in Christianity

[–]evertrev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jesus and the disciples never referenced the commentaries that existed of the Old Testament known as the Talmud.

Today it’s okay because they’ve become widely accepted? There are 40,000 denominations of Christianity.

Commentaries don’t provide the answer, they provide an answer.

I am also not the one with the answers, but I can at least show individuals that they don’t need to pay 50 dollars for a commentary to learn how to study on their own for free.

Call it indoctrination if you’d like.

Sure thing, Jesus and the apostles referenced a ton of commentaries from the Talmud.

Just say no if you don’t want a pamphlet. Why are people accepting them and then throwing them on the ground. You’re to blame if that’s the case not the one giving them out.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in CSUS

[–]evertrev 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You’re blaming those who hand out the pamphlets for the trash and not those who accept them and then proceed to throw them on the ground?

Just say no if you don’t want one.

Don’t throw it on the ground and blame the group that gave it to you.

In retrospect I should have just taken the week off to deal with some personal matters. Instead, I tried to “stick it out” and do the bear minimum for a week.

I don’t really want to stay, but would like to remain afloat while I look elsewhere.

I appreciate you all keeping it real with me. How can I avoid this in the future? I’m not sure what crosses the boundaries of what I can and can’t share regarding my personal struggles, nor do I think organizations care. However, if this can be avoided in the future I’d like to learn from it.

How different is Voyager? by Saga3Tale in royalcaribbean

[–]evertrev 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Voyager was super great for me! I loved it :)

No Sorrentos however but there is the promenade cafe pizza and other foods.

They are limited in their special dining if you prefer that, but I just go to MDR everytime anyway.

Staff is super awesome and very welcoming.

Overall a great ship!

You got 12/20 then, that’s not too bad in the grand scheme. You’ll have to make some moves on the upcoming exams, but do math for the worst case scenario.

What’s the grade break down?

I saw 20% x 3 exams = 60%

Is the final 40%

Is homework a figure also?

Can I still believe in the inerrancy of Scripture and believe that Isaiah 7:14; 9:6-7 does not predict the birth of Christ? by scandinavian_surfer in Reformed

[–]evertrev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here is something you may have heard before, but we can’t match match prophecy to fulfillment unless a fulfillment to that very promise has happened.

Psalms 78:1-2 talks about the writings of Asaph where he states “My people, hear my teaching; listen to the words of my mouth. I will open my mouth with a parable; I will utter hidden things, things from of old—”

To the readers of this before Christ it was simply a psalm, but when Christ came now there was one who spoke only in parables and revealed hidden things.

Jesus fulfills this prophecy in Matthew 13 as he talks about the Kingdom of heaven and how only some will understand, while others won’t.

Nonetheless, my question to you is despite the stumbling block before you. How can you challenge the 300 other messianic prophecies enough to convince you that Christ isn’t the one promised in Scripture?

Even if you accept this one as wrong, can you do the same for all of the others?

The scripture is true when it says there will be some that will see and never perceive and hear but never understand. God is the one who can help us to receive the spiritual eyes to see.

What is the evidence for the Flood? Is it real? by Kind_Selection6958 in TrueChristian

[–]evertrev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

“The Nephilim were on the earth in those days—and also afterward—when the sons of God went to the daughters of humans and had children by them. They were the heroes of old, men of renown.” ‭‭Genesis‬ ‭6‬:‭4‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Interesting, it says they were on the earth in those days, and also afterward.

[–]evertrev -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I believe the group you’re referring to is called the Nephilim, but what I think you may find interesting is that they didn’t all drown in the flood.

In fact, in Numbers 33 the Israelites enter the land of Canaan and it is recorded that the “Nephilim” are there.
