I am using my fancy 4th generation i7 laptop from ASUS (which we, civilised people, pronounce as a-sus) under Windows 10 1809 17763.437 and all is well. The screen is bright, the track-pad works properly and reliably, the keyboard is good, and the touchscreen works like a charm. So I am inclined...
Kids are hard to keep quiet and probably ought not be living in high density dwellings like apartment buildings. They'd be better off with a garden and some space between them and neighbours.
We owe the "success" of this thread to Calvinists and Lutherans who just cannot agree and will fight tooth, claw, and nail until the bitter end.
Objectively considered the idea that Jesus Christ died for all is so clear and so obvious in holy scripture that it ought to have generated only a few...
Donald broke the law and ought to be in jail and not in the white house.
It is an indictment of USA politics that he is not yet in jail.
Throw him in jail!

How did you get 118 and more posts out of "regeneration" when all it means is "born again"?
It can't be that complicated a concept to grasp. Even Nicodemus grasped it eventually.
Single predestination - the idea that God predestines the elect to eternal bliss - is bad enough because it implies that God doesn't care about anybody who is not elect so he just ignore them until they end up in eternal torment. Double predestination - the idea that God both predestines the...
It may matter if the underlying Greek word does not mean repent.
The Greek words are
μεταμεληθεὶς ἔστρεψεν
They do not mean repent.
μεταμεληθεὶς means having felt remorse
and ἔστρεψεν means turned back and it refers to the thirty pieces of silver which he returned to the chief priests and...
Donald obstructed justice, he lies, his press secretary lies, his administration is harmful to USA interests, he is destroying confidence in USA government reliability, he is endangering alliances, and all in all he is hastening the decline of the USA. Impeach him while you can. Obstruction of...
Maybe your translation is inaccurate?
Then when Judas, his betrayer, saw that Jesus was condemned, he changed his mind and brought back the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and the elders, saying, I have sinned by betraying innocent blood. They said, What is that to us? See to it...
Why do you think that? Why do you think that after death some people have a second chance, so to speak, and can repent after death?
I do not know and I do not need to know but I can entertain the thought that God who is Love might be merciful and save those who never had an opportunity to know...
The Lord Jesus Christ rebuked his disciples for attempting to prevent Children from coming to him and I expect that the Lord does the same to those who refuse little children the opportunity to come to Christ now. If you are a Baptist or have a view of baptism that is like the view that Baptists...
God told me that love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all...
Yes, I am aware of the Ephesian disciples who were baptised by saint John the Baptist and of the Samaritans who received the gospel message but did not receive the Holy Spirit until saint Peter came to Samaria to be with them and endow them with the Holy Spirit. There are other stories in The...
