Let me run my thoughts by you and get your opinion of them.
I absolutely accept Genesis 1-3 as true, any misunderstands I might have are the fault of myself not scripture.
When we talk about the creation of the fishes and birds and critters of the land it seems that 'evolution' might be fitted...
Consider this in the light of "Seek and you will find" and it sort of is like granting your own wishes, just not in the popular idea of waving a magic wand and KERPOOF it appears from nothing.
But as they say, If wishes were horses ..........
Well, you might find you come across better if you tried doing this, and that would lead to a stronger consideration of whatever you are trying to present.
Then you would do well to examine your posts and explain what you mean when you call for it.
Ignore the question much?
I sincerely give a...
This is what the Bible says, I don't question it.
An absolute examination of my genuine motives and thoughts so that I know the truth about myself.
Jesus was a Jew, as were his original followers. It is a compliment that you say I would have made a good one, but that implies a righteousness...
What makes you think that you will need to breathe in heaven?
The breath of life, the use of oxygen by the blood because the life is in the blood, was given to Adam so that he would live on earth as a living soul here.
Or so I understand.
Keep in mind that we are warned that the deception will be so great that it would even deceive the elect if it were possible.
This is subject for deep consideration, and absolute self honesty. Everyone wants to believe that they are those special elect, but we are told that only a few actually...
It's a kind of regular practice with each party trying its best to advantage it in their favor as it is done.
Democrats have usually been better at this than Republicans.
It is evil because way back in the Garden man made the choice to decide for himself what is right and wrong, following Satan and his temptations rather than God and his laws.
One of the things we are warned about in the last days is people seeking out their teachers with itching ears that tell them what they want to hear instead of true doctrine (2 Timothy 4:3-4)
This is something it is critical for all of us, those calling ourselves Christian, to be highly aware of...
Evolution is not the same as environmental adaption of a species, it is a new species developing from an old one through mutation, being different enough that it is unique and breeds true only with itself.
So a goldfish is not a new species of crucian carp but just a carefully and deliberately...
So the argument they make is based on an idea of absolute linear time but they defer to science while science, Relativity, says there is no such thing as absolute time.
In fact, the cutting edge quantum theorists view of time is starting to realize that time itself is mutable with even past and...
Just my opinion, but I think they are in their high and mighty positions as a result of serving a power behind then and that power definitely wants a nuclear war to destroy mankind to the greatest extent possible.
We all have chosen out masters and are rewarded accordingly, they by theirs and...
So this to say that Catholics reject Genesis 2:7 " The LORD God took a handful of soil and made a man. God breathed life into the man, and the man started breathing" as infallible truth and see it as a mere fairy tale and God took something already in existence and mutated it into something...
That's something I've heard some people refer to as plea bargaining with God.
It actually reduces Christian prayer to a transactional thing as if he were another man or woman where an agreement is made to 'purchase' God's favors by offering him something for them (no different than attending a...
Well, you might explain where and how.
No, it was intended for you. If you don't understand why or how you should consider the question more deeply in relation to the subject of the conversation.
A question: Do you see the Church and its membership as increasingly following unsound doctrine...
We all stand before the Lord someday when he will judge every action we have taken and every word we have spoken or even thought.
Jesus has stated that there will be those among us that will brag about their casting out devils, healing the sick, and performing miracles in his name, but he will...
FWIW, Pragmatism is essentially a 'what works is what's real and the value of it is the results of it' philosophy, it isn't related to anything other than checking a proposal against the real world to measure its results against its intention.
When someone says something like "Do what you did...
Ya know, the conversation was about someone can know, in real daily life, whether they are staying on the narrow road or going astray from it.
You seem to want to make this an intellectual exercise rather than a real world decision making one, discussing considerations someone would or should...
I think you're very, very wrong about this when you say" Is such a difference required? No."
Can you justify this scripturally, showing that what you do and how you live isn't important.
I would point out such things as "Wherefore: Go out from among them and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and...
