    Created and Uncreated Energies

    Here's a good place to start being that its actually coming from an Orthodox priest. As he states many Orthodox don't or haven't experienced it although God graced me with His uncreated 'energies' at an Orthodox service once and it's profound and life changing. It has a tendency to dissipate and...

    GOOD PEOPLE ONLY: Metaphor in holy scripture.

    The Orthodox have a fairly developed theology around created and uncreated energies that have helped me wrap my mind around concepts like that.

    Do Not Call

    I don't answer calls from phone numbers I don't recognize and if they don't leave a message is likely that I might block them.

    Nostalgia

    Although I wish I had a closer relationship with Christ growing up I believe He's utilized my hard knocks as learning experiences.

    COMMUNION: Does "is" mean "is?" Catholic, Lutheran, Evangelical

    Although I respectfully disagree with both you and Dr Luther on this one understanding the context is faith, I plan to no longer use it as a defense for the teaching of the real presence to someone who doesn't except the teaching clearly demonstrated in scriptures concerning Holy Communion. It...

    COMMUNION: Does "is" mean "is?" Catholic, Lutheran, Evangelical

    Silly, yes. I was being a bit of a smart aleck with my reply but you don't quite catch the irony. Solo scriptura=bible only in it's self is a misnomer in and of it self. The translation version itself that might be used is rot with interpretation not to mention the lens/paradigm the reader or...

    do not stop them

    I liken the infusion of grace upon an infant to loving and responsible parents ensuring their child get vaccinated before they understood what it means or asking for it. It particularly makes sense seeing my uncle inflicted with the results of having Smallpox as a child.

    do not stop them

    Great question by the way MC. I guess my first response would be Jesus always evaluated people but the condition of their heart and not whether they articulated theology perfectly or how much money they had or their station in life.

    Oh, I was just posting it as an example and not intending it to be critiqued by others particularly those of possible opposing views;)

    1. I didn't miss your point but you need to understand that if you post an example to a discussion to illustrate your position it's only fair to still illustrate why it doesn't apply to others in that discussion. 2. But the Lord did say "this is my body" and it's only fair to point out He did...

    COMMUNION: Does "is" mean "is?" Catholic, Lutheran, Evangelical

    John 6:51-68 51 I am the living bread that came down from heaven. Whoever eats this bread will live forever. This bread is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.” 52 Then the Jews began to argue sharply among themselves, “How can this man give us his flesh to eat?” 53 Jesus...

    Departed family and dear friends

    My father died just over two years ago and although we never had a close relationship we enjoyed debating biblical faith. (Respectfully of course). As he saw his life drawing short he did start to cozy up to the possibility of a Savior like God. So I never was sure if he was born again and I...

    COMMUNION: Does "is" mean "is?" Catholic, Lutheran, Evangelical

    You know that it's an analogy because of the example of an egg frying on a hot surface showing cause and effect. I don't see a hint, clue or example changing the statement "this IS my body/blood" from being literal to figurative especially considering the statement is coming from the creator or...
