    Leaven or unleavened bread

    The first “Last Supper” clearly used unleavened bread for the Passover. For modern churches, I prefer unleavened because it matters to some in the congregation and I would create a conflict for the conscience of no fellow believer. However, I do not have a strong personal objection to...

    Be ye goats or sheep?

    While I gravitate to verse by verse studies, I can also recognize the innate weakness that such a focus on the “trees” often causes one to not see the “forest” of the overall flow of logic within a letter written to be read in a single sitting.

    Why wasn't Satan stopped completely?

    Why did God allow Jacob’s sons to sell their brother Joseph into slavery? ... because the intended evil acts of men fit in with the greater plans of God to bring good to many people and glory to God. Satan continues to exist for exactly as long as his evil continues to further the greater plans...

    Be ye goats or sheep?

    No it won’t. This isn’t my first rodeo and past experience has shown that I would die if I fasted until the promised “continued” materialized. You will respond to a bunny trail with some personal pontification heavy on opinion but noticeably void of supporting evidence just like the above...

    Romans 11:6

    We ARE PERFECT in Christ. We WILL BE PERFECT when glorified (after the second coming). While we live on this earth, personal perfection remains an elusive goal.

    Fulfilment.

    [Rom 7:5 NIV] 5 For when we were in the realm of the flesh, the sinful passions aroused by the law were at work in us, so that we bore fruit for death. [Rom 8:2 NIV] 2 because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit who gives life has set you free from the law of sin and death. [1Co 15:56...

    Romans 11:6

    God’s action. See it at work here: Acts 7:54-60 NIV 54 When the members of the Sanhedrin heard this, they were furious and gnashed their teeth at him. 55 But Stephen, full of the Holy Spirit, looked up to heaven and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing at the right hand of God. 56 “Look,”...

    Romans 11:6

    I agree, as does the book of James.

    Fulfilment.

    One data point is the statement that the Law does not save, but rather brings death. Human Law is not for honest, hard working people, but rather for criminals. Most people would never kill anyone whether there was a law against murder or not. So the human law against shooting someone or...

    Mocking.

    I believe it was more irony than mockery. The Sanhedrin wanted Jesus executed for blasphemy but had to lie to Pilate and accuse Jesus of sedition against Rome. So there is a divine irony when they then object to the sign but it is too late to have it changed. Christ was in reality King of the...

    Brown people wrote the bible

    Why? I know lots of African Americans who view Jesus as being VERY African in skin color and facial features. It never offended me and seemed perfectly natural. I know that Asians generally relate more to the Gospel through a lens of loss and regaining of “honor”, so I assume that they imagine...

    Cavemen Theory and Biblical Concept

    There are, as far as I remember from studying this stuff back in the 1980’s, only two distinct groups of Cavemen. There are the so-called “Cro-magnon” people named after a cave discovered with lots of cave paintings, who were in every regard identical to modern people ... there is no deformity...

    Brown people wrote the bible

    This was a bizarre and fascinating thread. A little research on genetics and the Jewish people (apparently there is some interest in a DNA test for male decedents of Aaron), revealed that modern Palestinians are the closest genetic matches to historic Jews. This then led me to an image search...

    Denominations

    Just be aware that there are TWO Lutheran Churches in the US ... one very Biblical and one very liberal. (I don’t know about world wide). So if a gay, female pastor is leading the service, don’t give up on all Lutheran Churches. :) And if you encounter a bunch of “saved” people, then you...

    Is there such a thing as partly saved?

    Thank you. I wasn’t challenging your statement, just looking for clarification on your beliefs. You clarified the point and satisfied my curiosity. (Just for the record, I disagree with your conclusion. I place more faith in the promise that He who BEGAN a good work will complete it, and the...

    Is there such a thing as partly saved?

    You say “unless the baby rejects Him”; does that apply to adults too? Are they also saved “unless the adult later rejects Him”?

    Why should Christians support Israel?

    [Rev 7:4-8 NLT] 4 And I heard how many were marked with the seal of God--144,000 were sealed from all the tribes of Israel: 5 from Judah 12,000 from Reuben 12,000 from Gad 12,000 6 from Asher 12,000 from Naphtali 12,000 from Manasseh 12,000 7 from Simeon 12,000 from Levi 12,000 from Issachar...

    Why should Christians support Israel?

    We should support Israel because Europe needs vegetables.

    HELL

    How sneaky of the Bible to say “eternal” when it really means “for a long while”. Does that apply to “eternal life” as well? :noway:

    HELL

    How long will Philemon and Onesimus be Christian brothers? Til death or forever?
