Re: Parable of the Ten Virgins

On the subject of where Saul went. Samuel says to him 'today you and your sons will be with ME'. Samuel is one of the 10 individuals who are described as righteous and therefore in Abrahams Bosom (at the time) Provided it was Samuel speaking, then he was saying that Saul would go to the same place t...

Re: stuck on circumcision...

Thanks Richard. Your reply says more about you and the direction you are moving in than the subject matter itself. I have a lot of 'nose picking' problems myself, but I like to at least recognize them even if I am not strong enough to deal with them .Your response is not one of denial, (which is the...

Re: Can you lose it...

If you need to trust and rely in an active way, then what happens if you get dementia? Not a joke this, incidentally. You can live for years without the ability to do anything mental.

Re: Can you lose it...

These are all fair points. And I agree that I have known people who have 'lost their faith'. But I have always assumed that they were not born from above in the first place. The other thing which does not seem reasonable is that if Yah loves us, and if Yah wants us to be in his family and live, woul...

I think that is a pretty sensible reply, Rob.

Finger-likkin Halal in Tescos

Okay. The Halal thing. More food is getting into our society which is Halal. If you go to a Turkish restaurant you are eating Halal. Tesco and Sainsbury are both stocking Halal meat. If it is not in your basket, then it soon will be, if you are not careful. So are we to ignore Peter and James when w...

Re: Can you loose it...

The following is a general observation from over 60 years of keeping my eyes open. The loss of salvation argument tends to go with one's own understanding of the nature of sinful man. The people which I have met over the years who feel they need to work to keep themselves saved, nearly, without exce...

Re: Parable of the Ten Virgins

Lastly. Him that cometh unto me I will in no wise cast out.
All which he has given me I should lose nothing.

Is this all wrong too?

Re: Parable of the Ten Virgins

One more question.
Does the garment of salvation, the garment of light not sort of cover the sins? I jolly well hope so, otherwise there is no hope for me.

Re: Parable of the Ten Virgins

Q 1. So what is involved in walking away from Yah. Does not every teenager do it? In fact every human being on the earth even us with every third thought. What happens if you accidently die after looking at a picture of Jordan on the way in to Tescos. Q 2. Can you be unborn (if you decide that you d...

Re: Parable of the Ten Virgins

The concept of working hard to stay in the right grouping is basically a Roman Catholic error based on works based sa...

Re: Parable of the Ten Virgins

Also............ if the ecclesia is to be removed from the wrath to come, (which it is), then there will be two classifications of people in the tribulation. The ones who receive the truth and repent and alter their opinion, (the ones who will be then let in to the festivities) and the religious uns...

Re: Parable of the Ten Virgins

Also remember that the bride goes away veiled in the Jewish marriage pattern and stays away for 7 days and comes back unveiled. Forcing doctrine to fit scripture is sometimes like forcing the bits in to a jig saw puzzle, but landing up with a piece which simply does not fit. The non fitting bit is t...

Re: Parable of the Ten Virgins

One question, Lassie. The last sentence challenges us to decide whether we are a wise or foolish virgin. But are we not a type of the bride, and therefore not actually in the virgin grouping? Is this group not referring to those who are not involved in the nuptuals (held before the reception) but ar...

Re: Parable of the Ten Virgins

Lassie. That is truly amazing.

Like so many subjects which I thought I knew about, the ten v's is yet another subject where I have had to dismantle and then start to rebuild. Thank you so much for posting this. This also comes from Joanna as well as me

Re: Parable of the Ten Virgins

I agree. The price also for the bride is arranged in advance between the Groom and the brides father, and also a token of the arrangement is left at the time of the engagement. I also agree that in the typical Jewish wedding, you have the reception after the nuptuals. Any surprise that the 'church' ...

Re: stuck on circumcision...

Stephen and Rob. Both Nigel and I have recently asked Yahuwah for guidance on this subject, and as a practical thing we just were prepared to wait and find out what the answer was to this genuine question. I can only speak for myself when I say that if the answer had been that we had to do something...
