3 | Question about Tyre | Is 23:1 | Vannessa | 63545 | ||
Johnny, In Isaiah 23:15-18, it talks about Tyre being forgotten for 70 years the span of a King's life. Does the number 70 have another meaning, I know that the number 7 has some kind of meaning. Also is it talking about "King" as meaning a king on earth or a King like Jesus is the King or what? Just curious, thanks for your help. V |

4 | Question about Tyre | Is 23:1 | Vannessa | 63441 | ||
Johnny, Here is a response to your information: “Vanessa, that wasn't the question i asked. When you are talking about that prophecy you said it came true because "f) Never be rebuilt (26:14). " and you said it was never rebuilt. However, Isaiah (13-23) prophesied that it would be made desolate only for a period of 70 years. The question was why would an omniscient being tell one prophet that Tyre would be destroyed for 70 years and tell another prophet it would be destroyed forever and tell another prophet it would only be destroyed for 70 years? The prophecy that i asked you about that was only Ezekiel, for example, prophesied that Nebuchadnezzar would destroy Egypt and leave it utterly desolate for a period of 40 years, during which no foot of man or beast would pass through it (chapter 20). However, history records no such desolation during or after the reign of Nebachadezzer. Also, the Tyre still exists today. Just wondering what are the man's credentials that wrote that book?” __________ Can you or anyone answer this poster's question? Thank you sooooo much for your help, it's much appreciated. Also I'm learning alot from your responses thanks so much! V |

5 | Question about Tyre | Is 23:1 | Vannessa | 63335 | ||
Johnny, Thank you so much for your response, it is greatly appreciated. So I understand that many prophets throughout the Bible predicted this destruction. Did any other religion or document predict this destruction? I'm not familiar with this scripture, was Tyre actually destroyed, if so when and do you know the given name of this area on today's maps? Now I'm very curious, LOL. Anyway thanks again for your help. Have a good week, V |

6 | Question about Tyre | Not Specified | Vannessa | 63317 | ||
The real question is "If the Bible was really inspired by an omniscient, omnipotent deity, why would he have directed one prophet to predict a temporary destruction of Tyre and then later direct another prophet to predict that Tyre would be destroyed forever and never be rebuilt?" I found this on another forum and was curious about your answer. V |

9 | A poem I wanted to share. | Not Specified | Vannessa | 60221 | ||
Dedicated to my Brother, Sister and Father Sept. 5, 2002 WITHOUT EVEN A SOUND: IS THERE A PLACE TO CRY WHEN YOU FEEL SO EMPTY YOU JUST WANT TA DIE. YOUR FAMILY HAS GONE THROUGH SO MUCH AND YOU JUST WANT TO LOSE COMPLETE AND TOTAL TOUCH. THE REALITY YOU ONCE KNEW, HAS QUIETLY SLIPPED AWAY INTO AN ENDLESS STORMY SEA OF GRAY AND BLUE. THE PEOPLE YOU LOVE ARE NO LONGER THERE TO SHARE ALL THE JOY YOU USED TO SHARE. BUT YOU HAVE TO PRETEND YOU'RE O-Kay SO OTHERS CAN MAKE IT THROUGH THEIR OWN HELL IN A DAY. AND THEN WHEN YOU'RE ALL ALONE, YOU BEGIN TO THINK OF ALL THE THINGS YOU DIDN'T, BUT WANTED TO SAY. SO MANY TIMES YOU COULD HAVE SAID I LOVE YOU, BUT WITHOUT EVEN A SOUND YOU LET THOSE PRECIOUS MOMENTS CONTINUE. SO YOU DON'T WANT TO BE LEFT ALONE, YET YOU DON'T EVEN TALK ON THE PHONE. IN YOUR HEART YOU KNOW IT'S THEIR COURAGE YOU LACK. BUT WITH GRITTED TEETH YOU TURN YOUR FACE TO THE RAIN AND AS YOUR CHALLENGE IS LOST IN THE THUNDER, YOU SCREAM TO GOD, "I WANT THEM BACK! OH GOD, I JUST WANT THEM BACK!" YOU REMEMBER THEIR BEAUTIFUL FACES FULL OF HOPE AND LAUGHTER. THEN DEATH ENTERED THEIR EYES AND THEY BEGAN TO DREAM IN THE QUIET EVER AFTER. AT FIRST YOU JUST WANT TO JOIN THEM IN THEIR PEACEFUL SLEEP. NO MORE SORROW, NO MORE PAIN, NO MORE TEARS TO WEEP. BUT YOU CHOOSE TO KEEP GOING WALKING AROUND IN A DAZE. NOT REMEMBERING WORDS OF COMFORT OR KNOWING WHAT TO SAY. THEN YOU REMEMBER HOW THEY FOUGHT SO BRAVELY TO THE VERY LAST BREATH. EVEN THOUGH THEY KNEW THEIR OPPONENT DIDN'T PLAY FAIR AND THAT THEIR RIVAL WAS THE CLOAK OF DEATH. SO YOU DECIDE TO GIVE THEM THE HONOR THEY'RE DUE AND LIVE YOUR LIFE, AS THEY WOULD WANT YOU TO. YOU HOLD THEM CLOSE, SO VERY CLOSE TO YOUR HEART AND LIVE EVERYDAY MAKING A FRESH NEW START. BUT DEEP IN YOUR SOUL THE CLOAK TRIES TO MAKE YOU STUMBLE WITH DOUBT AND WORRY AND FEAR. YOU FIGHT THE STORM DEEP IN YOUR CHEST, AND YOU FEEL THE PIERCING STING OF ONE ANGRY TEAR. SO YOU SPIT IN THE FACE OF DEATH AND SHAKE YOUR FIST IN THE AIR! YELLING INSIDE AT THE TOP OF YOUR LUNGS ALL THE HATE THAT YOU CAN POSSIBLY BEAR. THEN YOU REMEMBER THEIR KINDNESS SO VERY, VERY SWEET, AND REMEMBER THEIR GENTILE NATURE, WITH A SMILE ALWAYS TO GREET. YOU REALIZE THE VICTORY IS REALLY THEIR'S TO CELEBRATE IN THE SILENT ECHO YOU'VE FOUND. AND LIKE THE POWER OF THE ROLLING THUNDER THEIR FAITH, COURAGE AND GOODNESS LIVE ON WITHOUT EVEN A SOUND, WITHOUT EVEN A SOUND. julie a. swofford |

12 | Historical Christian Stance on Slavery? | Exodus | Vannessa | 59775 | ||
Thanks Debbie, That is what I was thinking as well. But how is it that the atheists bash Christians about their stance on Slavery? Weren't Christians Slaves at one time too? Anyway thanks for your help. laters, V |

13 | Your best argument against evolution? | Genesis | Vannessa | 59769 | ||
Thanks Debbie, I do try to stand strong. I have been to the creation site and I present the facts as best I can from what I've read there. However the people I'm talking with do not accept anything I try to present factually. It is very frustrating to be called a liar, etc. I was hoping for some other strategy. Generally the responses are "prove it!" Now I know this is just a mind set on their part in that they will not accept anything I tell them no matter what. But I was hoping for some kind of new strategy in my approach and perhaps some new information I have not read before. In other words I was hoping to find out what others have used in their debates with evolutionists. Anyway thank you for your efforts, very appreciated. Take care and have a good Labor Day. V |

15 | Was Hitler a Christian? | Bible general Archive 1 | Vannessa | 59733 | ||
Ahh “Hank,” If you only knew the things Christians are called at MTV.com. Talk about your basic lion's den. These are usually atheists or science students who enjoy slaying Christians with words. It's not a pretty "site"! But I remain very strong in my faith. I am just, I can't think of the word---sorrowful maybe, about the impact these folks are having on unsuspecting minds at that particular site. I try very hard to combat these folks in a loving manner, even though my knowledge of the Bible, evolution, etc. are limited. Not to mention my debate skills leave a lot to be desired. If you want a real challenge try it one day, :-). I have to stop from time to time to just pray a bit. It can be very stressful, but I worry so much about the impression these atheists are presenting that in all good conscience I can't stay away from there for very long. Any advice is welcomed. Thanks so much for your response. I hope you are having a pleasant holiday weekend. V |

20 | Was Hitler a Christian? | Not Specified | Vannessa | 59725 | ||
Was Hitler a Christian? I'm being called a Nazi because I'm a Christian. Funny I don't feel like a Nazi. :-/ Anyone have some facts about Christianity and Hitler that might help? I know that many good people who happened to be Christians died fighting Hitler and his Nazi regime. This has to be the ultimate insult to the fallen soldiers who gave their lives fighting the Nazis. So no offense intended, I'm just in another one of those lovely debates at MTV.com "fight for your rights". Acck the things being said over there will make ya barf for sure. :-) Laters, V |
