    Amazing find - Ice age Mammoth tusks

    I'm sure. The stats are about right. The amazing part to me is the sheer size of these things. I'm sure if the farmer had let these guys have at it and dig on the plot where he found the tusks, they could have unearthed the whole skeleton (or close to it). There are a number of finds in...

    Christian T-Shirts?

    I think at one time (when I was about 14) I actually had a "Stryper" T-Shirt. Then I heard Metallica and it was all over... :D

    What is infant dedication and what does it mean

    But in all other things (for the Christian) God's grace is? Otherwise, God failed somewhere along the line for the child who was dedicated.

    What is infant dedication and what does it mean

    It's not so much about being defensive (perhaps for some it is...), but more-so examining scriptural evidence. It seemed to me that baby dedication had all the same ritual about it that baptism did, except for the presence of water. Why not opt for the "full experience" (i.e. regeneration), and...

    What is infant dedication and what does it mean

    Thanks for all the responses. I guess I meant this more as a rebuttal thread to the infant baptism thread. With all the scriptural reference there, it seems that there should be some for this practice as well. What I wondered is if anyone could show proof for parents standing in to represent the...

    whats the weather like where you live?

    14c and moderate winds blowing stuff around on our patio. Light rain to go along with it before too long, I imagine.

    What is infant dedication and what does it mean

    Let's assume (for now) that infant baptism is not supported by scripture, and, therefore, cannot be correct. Yet I have been a part of many churches that go through great pains to "dedicate" a child to the Lord, with the parents (and congregation) committing to bring up and nurture the child in...

    Is this a daily draw, or.....?

    What is baptism and what does it mean?

    When you were registered for school the first day, did you give logical assent to registering for school, or did a parent/guardian act on your behalf, assuming full responsibility for the act? If a parent/guardian acted on your behalf (following your reasoning) it was of no value since the act...

    Saved from what?

    Perhaps read the commentary. The killing of sin is "continually and gradually" through "faithful obedience", not automatic and for all time (i.e. "never completed in this life"). And this is coming from a major proponent of Calvinist doctrine. Do some research on John MacArthur to see what I...

    Saved from what?

    Prove it. Re: Romans 8:13 - "Paul's first instruction regarding what believers must do in the struggle with sin destroys several false views of how believers are made holy: 1) that in a crisis moment we are immediately made perfect; 2) that we must "let God" take over, while we remain idle; and...

    Outside the church there is no Salvation ( discussion)

    I'm not sure this is correct. I've never been told by any Catholic that I am not "saved", nor a Christian. It's relatively clear that I am one of the "separated brethren" in the eyes of the Catholic church, but I've not heard that this somehow "disqualifies" me from the work of Christ in my...

    What sevices do you seek online besides forums?

    I am enrolled in an online university for my Master's Degree, so I do a lot of academic research online. I use the university's online library quite often. I'll probably join their alumni association just so I can keep access to it. I can find what I'm looking for with ease at this point, and...

    Laptop or PC

    Laptop for me. The one I have is "refurbished" which (I'm coming to find out) is slang for "good luck with that"!

    When was Jesus Christ born?

    This is silly. What else would an observant Jew be doing there during the feast of dedication? Just milling about? Amazing what some don't know about their own Lord... Sorry for the derail, I just had to vent.

    Nice day today. A little overcast and cool out. Fall is here. I miss the Michigan colors, though.
