No one but God know the mind of God. Just my openion, of course. One is given clues from the Holy Bible. Forget about the Koran or whatever.
The Instructor
It was brought up that Christianity has many "branches" and they all have a bible which for the most part are similar yet it's all about interpretation of the words. Ask a Catholic, a Jehovah Witness, an Anglican etc to tell you what a certian passage in the bible means and you get a different interpretaion from each of them. Can only one be right and which one is it?

Oh, ok Ron. That's it, I wasn't paying attention to you. How could I not do such a thing?
You must be the "new instructor" so by all means I will listen to every word you say!!!
Go ahead and please instruct us all much, much more! We are all waiting.....
He knows vanity is a sin, and yet he persists.
Encouraging vanity must be equally sinful. Yes, even if you're "only joking".

Revelation tells us there *will* be many martyrs for Christ.
Not as many now, but during the tribulation, there will be many.
And I'm sure they'll be taking it very seriously, indeed.
Before him we had ....what's his name, (Mr. size 13 shoe....Daniel 58), then we have JosephW...and you.
You actually make it worse. Think about it.
It's like when a drummer makes a mistake when playing live and the singer looks back at him. No one would've noticed as much if the singer hadn't turned around.
But hey, do what you want, I'm sure you will

I wish when the theists argue, the atheists would stay out of it. They add nothing of value, and just get people riled up.
I think discussion of just what we believe is beneficial for Christians. I can't really give a fig what the non-believers think of it. I'm not talking to them, and I'm certainly not performing for them.
Originally posted by karoly aczelWhat? Is this just more "we are all God" baloney? No, I do not agree.
There is just One Mind. We are all part of it. We all make up the "mind of "god" ".
Agree?
As a Christian, I am NOT just a part of some "hivemind".

You should pay attention and you would know. I have explained that already and I shall not repeat it. Now check out the Youtube video, if you wish to be informed about the mark of the beast.
The Instructor
Sometimes I think the mark of the beast could be a spiritual mark and not a physical mark....But the part where you will not be able to buy sell or trade without this mark would bag to the contrary. I've always heard that 6 is the number of man where as 7 is the number of God or completion. The 666 is Greek have to check that to see what is means or reads in the Greek.
