From my perspective, the assumption of Mary is a rather unscriptural assumption.

Thanks to Ren for his contribution (Post #21 on Page 3). We now have two explanations that demonstrate that the "inconsistency" that MoreCoffee seems bent on establishing, does not exist. (Although I must confess that I find that the resulting statement in Exodus 6:3 as they would become...

Does holy scripture teach a "flat Earth"? I would flatly deny that.

I suggest that there is only one way to test if God really exists. Personal “experience” is subjective. As is personal belief. Dedicated Muslims for instance, are convinced that their god is the true god. In English speaking countries at least, some Muslim broadcasts contain “choruses” (a la...

MoreCoffee in Post #17 on Page 2: I would suggest that that statement lacks logic. The Hebrew word “יְהוֹוָה” was used as a descriptive title in Genesis 28:13, and a revealed name in Exodus 6:3. Not a name or a descriptive title in both places. But let's have a closer look at the...

Throwing doubt on God’s Complete and Internally Consistent Revelation (the Bible), can be a tricky way of boosting the acceptance of “tradition”. If the Bible contains contradictions, then tradition is obviously needed to explain it. “Is that not so?”. Take for instance, MoreCoffee’s Post #13...

Lämmchen had the right idea in Post #10 on Page 1: To be a little more precise, Yahweh (YHWH) is both a descriptive title meaning "self existing" and like expressions in English, and God's self-revealed name. When God speaks of Himself prior to Exodus 6:3, He is using the word in a descriptive...

I wish to thank Josiah for his clarification in Post #30 on Page 3: I had been biting my tongue for some time, hoping that someone would bring that up. I had been merely toeing the RCC (and generally accepted) party line. That was because I had more important things to bring to people’s...

Here is a dilemma. From MoreCoffee in Post #7 and Rens in Post #8, both on Page 1, and MoreCoffee in Post #12 on Page 2: MC: “So believing Jesus is a creature is a matter that affects a person's salvation but believing that God the Father is in fact Jesus Christ and hence that the Father died...

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- May I point out, before I get started, that both Lämmchen and Josiah have avoided the question (important consideration) of what God actually revealed about Himself via Divine Inspiration. (See Post 205 on Page...

I wonder what an earnest seeker would make of it all. In Post #161 on Page 17 Lämmchen extracted a couple of verses from a broader proclamation made by Jesus. The extracted verses were offered in the context of people's futures being based on their accepting or rejecting forgiveness. That...

While we’re at it... Alithis, Post #39 Page 5 May I offer the suggestion that God's Holy Hebrew Scriptures, God's inspired revelation to His chosen physical people, a revelation which He had preserved as meaningful for us, may hold the key to resolving many issues? 2 Timothy 3:15-17: At...

It is interesting to see MoreCoffee playing the “Jehovah’s Witnesses” card once again. Each time we have seen it played in the past, it has been in reply to Holy Scripture (e.g. as offered by visionary) that he appears to have been unable to refute. (He made no attempt to refute it, anyway – he...

It’s the misstatements and inconsistencies that make me wonder. There should be absolutely no need for them if what they are being used to promote is true. Their use simply throws doubt on what they are employed to support. MoreCoffee Post #1 on Page 1: Then why didn’t the Catholic Church...

We must once again congratulate MoreCoffee for his adroitness in turning attention away from unpalatable evidence that shines direct and negative light on the church that calls itself Catholic. In Post #18 on Page 2 it was clearly shown that the Catholic Church itself had been directly and...

In Post #333 on Page 34, Josiah stated: I suggest that Josiah not be so hasty. If one looks at God’s Inspired Revelation to us carefully, four reasons readily present themselves: 1. Jesus had to be a man in whom the taint of (what is called) original sin did not reside (Hebrews 4:15; 1...

In Post #321 on Page 33, MoreCoffee stated: Without meaning to tread on Josiah’s toes or steal his thunder, may I suggest that MoreCoffee look in his own old dusty mirror, with his organisation in the background behind him. On the pretext of the sixty six books in psalms 91’s Bible saying...

After MoreCoffee’s Post #335, I thought I’d better post a few last few thoughts I had saved up for progressive, intermittent posting later. In Post #179 on Page 18, PezGirl73 said: In Post #183 on Page 19, Rens, in reply to PezGirl73’s Post, stated (quite illogically, I suggest): I would...

In Post #244 on Page 25, Lämmchen provided a few scriptures with attendant questions. Some might deem that a silly question. Because death precluded any further activity, it has no bearing on the subject under discussion – the possibility or otherwise of defined action after Jesus’ birth...

In Post #16 on Page 2, MoreCoffee ruminated thus: I suspect that that was a tongue-in-cheek question. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Could it be that it has already been done...
