Wow, the first sentences here cover a multitude of sins. If it came to pass, I was right, but if it didn't it was because my understanding wasn't mature--could it be that you were just wrong? I remember a segment of Happy Days where Fonzi had to say he was wrong. He could barely get the word out of his mouth--it was a foreign thing for him to say.
I never said anything about a Bible student being a prophet. I am certain there are many Bible students here who are not prophesying, but are just as serious with their studies as you are. It's as if you have some kind of Biblical high horse you ride on, and others are not quite as elevated in Scripture as you.
For sake of argument, let's assume Pence is mentioned in Daniel, and you are correct. You can come on here, and say "I was right", but how many souls were converted because of it? Does it matter what the name of the last American President is? No--and you cannot walk into Heaven by saying that stuff. The end is coming. We are supposed to be reaching souls.
Rightly dividing the word of truth? To me that means can you defend your faith. The plan of salvation?Justification and what is sanctification? How the 10 Commandments are not done away with. Can you show from the Bible that the dead sleep, and that the Sabbath was not a part of the ceremonial law? Can you show that the dietary laws were in force before the Lord told Moses? I am saying this for me as well. I forget the verses all the time, and I shouldn't.
