unfortunately our brother sprout has missed the point of relativity imposed upon science by relativity of motion: this principle is completely arbitrary as stated by einstein himself; that is to say one can use any point in space as an absolute point of reference thus motion would absolute. why not choose the earth as this absolute reference as the observational data suggests that the earth is at the center of the universe anyway. by the way, general relativity one can know whether one is accelerating with reference to another reference frame: however, not by using ones five- sense! not the sense of sight, since this would be deceiving, but by ones sense of touch/feeling the acceleration as in an elevator one would feel/experience the acceleration thus making an absolute frame of reference, base on feeling, not a relative frame base of sight.
“The appearance of the locusts was like horses prepared for battle. Something like golden crowns was on their heads; their faces were like human faces; they had hair like women’s hair; their teeth were like lions’ teeth; they had chests like iron breastplates; the sound of their wings was like the sound of many chariots with horses rushing into battle; and they had tails with stingers like scorpions, so that with their tails they had the power to harm people for five months. They had as their king the angel of the abyss; his name in Hebrew is Abaddon, and in Greek he has the name Apollyon” Revelation 9:7-11 Demonic horde or metallic war machine
there is no observational data to disprove that the earth is at the center of the universe. astronomers philosophically chose and still choose by non observational data to not place the earth at the center of the universe, again there is not evidence to disprove this and yet there is data that shows the earth to be at the center of the universe. this makes sense from a creationist belief: why would GOD not place the heavens about the earth at the center?
What if all is literal, and Jesus already came is another option that nobody wants to explore, I am not saying that Jesus already came but could be and we are being deceived in terms of the times.
"Literary Forms in the Bible-Literal or Figurative?: Knowing Scripture" (Sorry kind Sir, for the VERY long "comment". But I do believe it NEEDS to be said) Yes indeed...how many times have we heard: "The bible IS literal; and I read it that way? And EVERY word is inspired by God" (whose name is Jesus for the last 2,000 yrs) And commonly like this... "Mah bibul is hunard perfit, and akute as kins be! Cuz Gawd inspared evah writah. And 'day' wrote it thatahway! And my bibul is Kin James; cuz Gawd gave it to King James. And thar AINT nuthun Ya'll cud evah do; but read that thar bibul! Cuz it's the only WERD of GAWD!"... Seriously: if those persons could only realize; that not one thing they said is true. Sad, but OH So true. And worse; excusing their illiteracy; MOST Christians (all over the world) believes EVAH word in the paragraph above. And satan laughs them all the way to the END. How sad! And believe it or not; centuries before the KJV bible came into being; there were a myriad of bibles, written by different people and different beliefs. And even worse; THE first whole Bible; was printed by the Roman Catholic Cult (as I call them), in 382 AD in Rome. And Pope "Damasus" was the one that paid for it; to be written by a man named, "Eusebius Hieronymus, pseudonym Sophronius"; who was later canonized "St Jerome". And worse: ALL Popes have changed words in their bible ("Latin Vulgate") to this day. And why Martin Luther bolted the RCC and created the Lutheran Church! On October 31st, 1517 AD. So, the RCC bible; could coincide with each different Pope's beliefs and wants, etc. SAD, but Oh so true. Worse: Believe it or not. (EVERY Bible, Torah, Septuagint, Apocrypha, the OT and the NT bibles, etc in the world); has untold errors from beginning to end. And ALL of the world (from Creation) is going to KNOW that to be fact absolute; on Judgment Day; when ALL is revealed. Praise Jesus Holy Name! So... Am I going to throw my bibles away because of errors? Absolutely NOT! But before I open it; I pray to Jesus alone in private; and ask him to guide, lead and direct me; AROUND satan's LIES; and steer me to Jesus' TRUTHS. And then I will KNOW: which verse is a LIE; vs a Pure Truth; from Heaven inspired by Jesus. AMEN! Praise His Holy Name... ...In any case Brethren, Please Pray OFTEN and Praise Jesus OFTEN; for He is the ONLY true "God Almighty"; there will ever have been. And may Jesus bless you and yours always. AMEN!
The Jesus you are praying to.....is not the Jesus of Scripture. This is gnosticism, Pat. Why do you delete your comment when people have rebuked you....and then you repost your comment?
and what answers you which verses are true and wich not, your thougths? your intuition?. or other scripture?.. if its true that its fake. then its all fake.. if its true gox made it live over the time. then all needed live.. but if they destroyed it... the thingd needed for salvation or the neccasary things would be not even found in it at all.
i mean. if its true what you say.. then picking verses and so. has no point in it to. and praying jesus would be made up at all. and then we didnt have truth at all i think they will change thay to.. so we dont find the truth.. its possible.. but if its true. pray what is in the bible and use bible doesnt make sense anymore then because smart worldly people would change it or remove. and not let it in here for others to find it

I thank God whom graciously orchestrated UA-cam so His children can benefit from it.
? What can we created so the world could benefit from?
When was this series made?
Yes an audio engineer can clean up the audio, especially the high pitched tone.
The audio is so low.
Great teaching.

I can barely hear the sound on this and I’ve got my phone up loud

Demonic horde or metallic war machine
Apache Helicopter, 'Hair like women', the males of the tribe. That's a puzzling hint. God is clever.
YOUNG R.C. SPROUL!!
Great video
