    How to identify a valid pastor.

    Okay. Let's say someone believes in absolute divine immutability AND that God became a human man and died and rose from the dead with a new glorified human body complete with crucifixion scares that He hadn't ever had before and that He retains to this day and forever more. If you don't like...

    How to identify a valid pastor.

    Yes, it is 100% true. Changing the definition of the term "evolution" doesn't count as evidence for actual evolution. No, it absolutely does not. There is exactly ZERO evidence for evolution. It has never been observed nor could it ever be observed. It has become a fundamentally unfalsifiable...

    How to identify a valid pastor.

    Of course it is. I mean Jesus would have gotten banned, why not me! He's clearly a waste of time. I'll just put him on ignore and save everyone, including myself, the stress.

    How to identify a valid pastor.

    There is no evidence for either an old Earth or any sort of evolution whatsoever (theistic or otherwise). NONE! [Staff edit for rule violation] If God can't write scripture correctly, why would anyone trust Him with their eternal soul? If this is a lie.... Exodus 20:11 For in six days the...

    How to identify a valid pastor.

    You cannot detect a misuse of Scripture without sound reason. The point I am making is that Scripture does not trump reason. There is no such thing as an irrational truth. The Bible is a book, and like all books, it is language-based. Language itself is a rational construct. That means the...

    How to identify a valid pastor.

    I get it but they aren't assumptions. They're precepts not assumptions. I think the full extent of our disagreement on this particular point is semantic in nature. Whether it is or not, my primary point is that you cannot recognize assumptions, you cannot understand doctrines, you cannot read...

    Faith Is Not the Opposite of Reason

    This is an excellent point! This post of yours, by the way, is without a doubt, the most substantive thing I've received in response to anything I've said in a very long time! Very good! There is no doubt that errors of logic can be made. It isn't even difficult to proceed on the basis of a...

    How to identify a valid pastor.

    I agree that it teaches all of those things but they aren't assumptions or presuppositions. If we are looking for presuppositions, the clearest one is that God exists. The bible does not make direct arguments for the existence of God. Rather it is written from a theistic paradigm, meaning it...

    Did Christ die for them that are perishing ?

    Okay, b52 is now officially on my ignore list. He is intentionally unresponsive and desires only to be an annoyance. Won't be wasting any more time with him. Good riddance.

    Proof of God For Science Types

    Fair enough. I've read the opening post. I detect nothing circular about it. I can see how someone could turn it into that, but what someone can read into it and what the author intended aren't the same thing. Perhaps SetFree could have done a better job of making the point but I, for one...

    Did Christ die for them that are perishing ?

    Saying it doesn't make it so. The point is that you didn't and still don't know what you're talking about. You sound like a cult leader. The passage isn't teaching the nonsense you want to squeeze out of it.

    Did Christ die for them that are perishing ?

    Do you ever actually respond to the biblical argument people make? Luke 7:50 Then He said to the woman, “Your faith has saved you. Go in peace.” - Jesus! Do you have any real arguments to make or are these truly idiotic word games all you've got? If the latter, I submit that you've believed...

    How to identify a valid pastor.

    I can't think of any assumptions that anyone needs to hold to. This is generally true and a practice that will serve you well in many, if not most situations but I would just say to you that proper bible study doesn't begin with the bible, it begins with God. That probably sounds rather...

    Did Christ die for them that are perishing ?

    The Calvinist reads John 12:32 as if Jesus said, “I will irresistibly save everyone I died for.” But Jesus actually said, “I will draw all men unto me,” and verse 33 clarifies He's talking about the type of death He would die, not an irresistible inward call. The problem for Calvinism is that...

    Did Christ die for them that are perishing ?

    Stupid word games. Do you suppose also that the guy who throws a flotation devise to a drowning man, doesn't get credit for saving the man's life because the drowning man grasped the ring? Faith is that thing! How is it even possible for someone's mind to be so completely turned off? It seems...

    At what age would you let your child travel alone on airplane?

    Probably not until they're in their teens and probably not a young girl at all until she looks and is able to carry herself as a fully grown adult. It would make a great deal of difference where they were going and who, if anyone, would be there to meet them when they get off the plane. Also...

    Faith Is Not the Opposite of Reason

    Faith Is Not the Opposite of Reason, It Is the Fruit of It! I’ve read heartfelt stories, tales of surviving the streets, enduring the horrors of war, dealing with economic hardship, chronic illness, and even the death of a child. In each one, faith is described as the only thing that carried...

    First Principles Thinking Through the Doctrine of Divine Immutability and the Character of God

    None of you are worthy of this work. I've deleted my entire essay. What of it that exists as quotes in other people posts I can't remove or I would.

    What do you think makes christianity.Stand out from every other religion out there?:)

    You are trying to be ignored. I have already shown you were your legalism is. I will not do it again. And I have never mention Netflix anywhere on this forum until the writing of this sentence. Go ahead. Double down again.
