Anglo-Israelitism , End Times and the misuse of scripture

What are Anglo-Israelites?

I hope this topic is limited to Faith and beliefs backed by scripture and that politics and evolution are kept to a minimum. Candle3 always drags PRATTS regarding evolution vs. Creation into his arguments. If he wants to share his personal faith and beliefs, I'm fine with that and will participate, but if he gets off on the evolution arguments that he does not understand, it will muddy the water.

Well I've never heard about it in any church that I have attended or been associated with.I have been taught that my own personal relationship and inner conscience with God is more important and solid than anything that any Pastor says...though I have not always lived it. We can discuss some End Times theology and popular interpretations of scripture, though I anticipate that most of you will disagree with the interpretations.

OK, Candle3. Here we go.

Endlessly quoting scripture, (Especially the OT) does not impress your audience here at EvC, though I imagine it reinforces your confidence in your beliefs. It is evident to me that you learn this stuff solely through the teachings of your church. Do you expect to convert anyone?

I advise dropping the whole evolution/creationism argument. If you must speak on the matter, focus on glorifying the Creator as you understand Him and leave the evolution arguments alone. They are PRATTS to this audience. (Points Refuted A Thousand Times)

Feel free to argue (or discuss) God's character through Jesus Christ with me. Jesus is the focal point of the entire Bible (for Believers) and is really the only important point of Christianity.

...you will never learn. Your ego will prevent you from
seeing the truth, or at least admitting it.

All of us have some degree of an Ego. The Truth is living and active. What would you say that this "Truth" is?

Critics would of course say that "God" is a product of human imagination...but then again God may well declare that all of creation is a product of His imagination! It is all in the perspective of the observer.~Phat

Is this the topic you mean? Message 1If so, let's revisit it. I will keep Last Day's discussion there, though you have the advantage in a strict Bible Study Forum as opposed to Faith & Belief. My angle is not based on the * evidence-based * arguments, of which I question some. A nonbeliever cannot make a judgment on a faith-based argument.The link to my summation is here. Message 1749

I am a monotheist. Truth is not relative. Your point would have merit if (as an example) all 300 million "gods" were invented by humans. I believe that one is not. We were created. Perhaps not on a planetary level but on a cosmological level. One God. Many imitators. I never was impressed by a relativistic argument.Even non believers have to reference my "god" to show me my hypocrisy.
