    Do you think that any mother, apart from the insane or those dedicated to wickedness, is anti-life?

    The undisclosed age of “X”

    atpollard NOBODY IS CLAIMING AN AGE BASED RESTRICTION ON BAPTISM. You must know by now that Josiah is not likely to stop saying stuff about age x.

    The undisclosed age of “X”

    Baptism's meaning in the holy scriptures is to wash away sins, die and rise with Christ, be born anew from above, and be saved yet Baptist people call it a public testimony about/to/of their faith while holy scripture never says that is what baptism is or means so why do credobpatists teach so...

    Can you lose your salvation?

    Who decides what heresies are damnable? I, for example, may regard Baptist teaching on Communion and Baptism as heresy and Calvinistic predestination as serious heresy and you will have views about beliefs that I hold which may meet whatever criteria you have for heresy and serious heresy when...

    The undisclosed age of “X”

    Albion probably has read all the verses on baptism. I know that I have. It comes with reading all the verses in the bible.

    Civil discourse - On the Bodily assumption of the Blessed Virgn Mary into heaven.

    It is good to forestall misunderstandings - nip them in the bud before they arise and take hold.

    Civil discourse - On the Bodily assumption of the Blessed Virgn Mary into heaven.

    The assumption of anyone is not to be understood as a power in their possession. What assumption means is that one was carried to heaven by others, angels in nearly every case. Ascending to heaven on the other hand can imply a power of one's own thus the Lord Jesus Christ is said to have...

    Can you lose your salvation?

    Adam Clarke was a Methodist and follower of John Wesley as well as a biblical theologian who was a little bit distrustful of systematic theolgy. Being of that ilk he would not conform to your approach so I do not wonder that you do not like his commentary.

    The Flood: Historical event or Fable?

    It is a mystery - both what the heavens really are and what our interlocutors really think heavens means. But such is the world of Christian discussion forums. Almost no one is willing to give way and very few attempt to see things from the other's perspective. I understand why Andrew is saying...

    The Flood: Historical event or Fable?

    The approach taken in your post is that if one word or even one jot or tittle of the scriptures is a mistake or in any kind of error then the whole of holy scripture is impugned and all is thereby made unsafe and unreliable. But do you really think that is the truth? How do you account for the...

    Can you lose your salvation?

    .. I am curious as to why the NASB added the word really to the translation given that evangelicals regard the NASB as especially accurate (that is to say the NASB is regarded as word for word even of the word order and tenses are unnatural in standard English). Other translations that...

    The Flood: Historical event or Fable?

    If that's how you feel then you best stick with waterworld Earth for about a year in Noah's day. I do not feel that way so I believe in God and in the Lord Jesus Christ despite thinking that Noah's story may be rather mythic by modern fact stating historical standards.

    The Flood: Historical event or Fable?

    It is a "slippery slope towards treating the story as mythic" I agree. The story is not credible when read as water world Earth. It just is not credible when read that way. So you make your choices; believe the story in an incredible reading or believe it is a story that does not speak about the...

    The Flood: Historical event or Fable?

    It is possible that Noah was just no good at navigation and that his boat was useless as a seagoing navigable vessel. It was, after all, described as a big box.

    The Flood: Historical event or Fable?

    What is not obvious is what "everything under heaven" means. You appear to take it as meaning everything under all the sky of the whole planet. In effect every living and breathing thing on the planet except those on the ark died. Why is that the way you read it? Is it because for you "all the...

    The Flood: Historical event or Fable?

    The story says that but you want to treat the story as if it were true for the whole planet.
