    "Therefore you also be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect. (Matt. 24:44 NKJ)

    Can't let mischaracterization slide. My views reflect Quantum Physics, unlike the classic "metaphysics" of the past, which have been proven wrong by scientific observation...But scripture didn't change, it never taught medieval errors about reality, the metaphysics of the ancient Greek...

    Are Christians permitted to believe God will provide a Postmortem Opportunity to the Unevangelized?

    If it were "pot-luck" that implies inefficiency, something I think impossible for the God of Creation. As Paul said, everything made declares God's infinity, in power and intellect. That's why I am convinced God's plan to save all He can, and judge the rest, is perfect. It maximizes the saved...

    "Therefore you also be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect. (Matt. 24:44 NKJ)

    Our cosmology is radically different. I acknowledge your views are in accord with mainstream historic Christian thought. Mine could be described as "heterodox". But Scripture predicts Scripture wording would speak differently to those living in the end time, who were watching it being...

    Behold, a great multitude which no one could number, of all nations, tribes, peoples, and tongues...out of the great tribulation

    9 After these things I looked, and behold, a great multitude which no one could number, of all nations, tribes, peoples, and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, with palm branches in their hands, 10 and crying out with a loud voice, saying...

    "Therefore you also be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect. (Matt. 24:44 NKJ)

    Or, both scripture and early Christian writing supplies enough to believe its an opening in the sky: 11 Now I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse. And He who sat on him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness He judges and makes war. 12 His eyes were like a flame of fire...

    Apocalypse goes mainstream: The end of the world is becoming normal conversation

    I agree. Secular fears change with the seasons. Manipulated for control and/or profit. Scripture alone reveals the future.

    "Therefore you also be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect. (Matt. 24:44 NKJ)

    Its relevant but as you note, not all that helpful as indicating truth. What do you think is the "sign" of Christ's coming, the coming itself or an actual sign preceding it? If its a sign everyone recognizes, it may indicate why so many are saved in the end time, not lost forever: 9 After...

    Catholic argument against sola scriptura refuted. Willing and able to take on his replacements

    Of course not, but I never said it could. You confuse me with someone else.

    Catholic argument against sola scriptura refuted. Willing and able to take on his replacements

    Jesus didn't overshadow the virgin and cause her to conceive, the Holy Spirit did....therefore what was born is Holy because of the Holy Spirit. Of course Jesus is the Eternal Son of God, Holy. I never said different.

    The Collapse of the News Industry Is Taking Its Soul Down With It

    In my opinion, corporate media is soulless: COLUMN | FOURTH ESTATE The Collapse of the News Industry Is Taking Its Soul Down With It The decline of the media is sapping journalism of a crucial tool. A general view of the Kansas City bureau of the Associated Press. In the foreground is the East...

    Catholic argument against sola scriptura refuted. Willing and able to take on his replacements

    Both natures of Christ are Holy, human and divine. I never said otherwise or suggested anything else.

    Will the Jews build a Third Temple?

    Your objection is fundamentally flawed. The very existence of our intelligence, and Word of God implies God expects us to learn His will through those devices. Even a child is expected to read, comprehend scripture to become wise: 15 and that from childhood you have known the Holy Scriptures...

    Catholic argument against sola scriptura refuted. Willing and able to take on his replacements

    The apocryphal Wisdom is speaking of "Wisdom" metaphorically, not as a real entity. Therefore, the fallacy of equivocation renders your argument unsound. And your inferences are specious at best. Satan's hatred irrelevant, immaterial and incompetent. People aren't denigrating Mary when they...

    Will the Jews build a Third Temple?

    I agree an "inference" is not "proof", cannot be "certain" about anything. At its best, an "inference" can only be "probable", reasonable. But the Word does expect we can infer truth. For example, Christ fully expects the Pharisees can "infer specific premises" and consider their implication...

    Seven Pieces of Evidence That Francis Is an Antipope

    https://www.patrickcoffin.media/seven-pieces-of-evidence-that-francis-is-an-antipope/ In this video, I summarize the one hypothesis that makes sense of the last eight years of chaos and evil in the Catholic Church: that Jorge Mario Bergoglio is an antipope and that the February 11, 2013...
