Saved 36yr, & studied that long.I am 1st a Bible Teacher & Pastor. I represented layman & Clergy at confrences in the United Methodist Church. After a disagreement with them over Ordination of Practicing homosexuals & lesbians, I went the way my conscience dictated and severed myself from their denomination. I felt and still do that you can't Sanctify sodomy, no matter what you wish to call it. I practiced being celibate when my wife passed away till I remarried. If gays wish to be ministers, then let them be celibate, as God requires of all His followers, straight or gay. They want to minister & yet continue to live in open sexual practices with members of the same gender. What message does this send to the congregations, only that, "Sexual sins are to be overlooked." I don't see it that way, and until God gives a "New Revelation" on this subject, to all believers at the same time, I'll just keep my "Old Fogey" ideas & keep on Preaching.

WHAT YEAR DID DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME START TO BE OBSERVED IN OHIO AND THE USA?
I grew up in Ohio, and as a child was not aware of time changes, although I do remember hearing the term at about 10 years old. As an adult, I lived in Arizona and it is not observed there. People in Arizona say, "It's like the old Indian that cut the top off his blanket and sewed it on the bottom to make it longer".
4 AnswersGeography1 decade agoThere are 2 main schools of thought, on this passage, just curious to see the comparison.?
"Two working in a field, 1 shall be taken, & the other is left."& "as it was in the days of Noah,.. and they knew not, till the flood came & took them all away. I personally view this as the "separation of the sheep & goats" at the end of the 7yr Tribulation Period. They are taken & destroyed as those were in the Flood of Noah. The other view is that this is the Rapture of the Church, and they are taken to Heaven. I'd like to see the reasonings of the Y A Respondents.
8 AnswersReligion & Spirituality2 decades agoDoes the fact that Israel only came into existance in 1948, mean all the doomsayers pre 1948, were mistaken?
Since the above statement is true, the following is also true. Jesus could not have returned before the nation was established. When He comes, they will have been run out of Israel, and be hiding in the wilderness, away from the anti-christ. Proceted there by God. See Rev 12:13-17
5 AnswersReligion & Spirituality2 decades agoIn Rev 20:4 it speaks of "Those who were BEHEADED for their witness for Christ" Does anyone see a pattern here
I have seen & heard what the muslims are doing to captives, and I see a corelation between that & the future Tribulation Period. In the 70's I saw the muslim world rejoice & give each other gifts when the Shaw of Iran died. Do any of the Christians see the resemblence to Rev 11:3-12? In the 60's it was commonly believed the catholic church would give rise to the anti-christ, or at least to the false prophet. I changed my thinking then, and believe we are now seeing the muslim world preparing to usher in a world mind-set in favor of beheadings for the sake of their faith. After the church is taken from the earth, there will be no restraining force here to hold back evil incarnate(anti-christ). It is not beyond our imagination that this evil entity would resort to mass beheadings, thus fulfilling the image conveyed in Rev 20:4. Wake up Christians, our Redemption Draws Close, we may here the Voice of OUR Lord say, "Come up here." This world is bad now, imagine it with no moral restraints.
