    Privacy

    Which of those advocate for Personal Privacy of the individual from the Government? I saw several that, at first glance, seemed to argue against it.

    The Filioque Clause

    John 1:1-5 1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 [fn]He was in the beginning with God. 3 All things came into being through Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into being. 4 In Him was life, and the life was the Light of...

    Privacy

    No, I support personal privacy. You asked about Scriptural Support for Personal Privacy and I examined multiple translations in a word search for "privacy". I was able to locate only one translation that used the English word 'privacy' in any scripture verse (the NLT) and that was the only...

    Privacy

    1 Kings 6:12 [NASB] One of his servants said, “No, my lord, O king; but Elisha, the prophet who is in Israel, tells the king of Israel the words that you speak in your bedroom.” Scripture seems to recognize no right to Personal Privacy. (I could find no other verses on the subject of privacy.)

    Privacy

    Is that a Theological question? 1 Timothy 2:1-2 [NASB] First of all, then, I urge that entreaties and prayers, petitions and thanksgivings, be made on behalf of all men, for kings and all who are in authority, so that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and dignity.

    Issues in the Reformation: Part one - SALVATION

    Nothing against either Catholics or Protestants, but isn't it an apples to oranges comparison to discuss what the Hierarchy and Thologians of the Catholic Church are attempting to do to what lay Protestants claim on a debate forum?

    The seven deadly sins

    It is our cultural weakness. We have plenty so gluttony is our sin which so easily entangles. I have a friend who works internationally and he said that in parts of Africa the churches struggle with stealing. The basic idea of seeing, wanting and taking (envy? greed?) is rampant even in the...

    The seven deadly sins

    Yes. I watched it. It is contra-Biblical. It denies the fundamental fallen nature of man clearly spoken of in scripture and urges an abandonment of guilt over our evil actions and emotions, rather it calls upon the world to embrace evil as good and to empower man to cure himself without a need...

    Just a thought.

    So we should demonstrate our love by torturing heretics into orthodoxy (because we love God) and then execute them before they can be led astray (because we care about their soul)? Do you mean something like that? :mischievous: :pop2:

    The Filioque Clause

    With your indulgence, I will address your points one at a time starting with the first. I prefer Scripture to Creeds for defining Biblical Truths, so I will also focus on verses upon which this concept of the Son begotten from the Father are likely based. John 3:16 [NASB] For God so loved the...

    The Filioque Clause

    Respectfully, the division is in the organization of the Earthly church and has no real impact upon the Church Universal with Christ as its head and all true believers as His body. However, the organizational question is fairly fundamental and one worth dividing the churches (local collections...

    "The Bible Answer Man" converts to Orthodoxy

    "to a degree" ... Can one abandon the Roman Catholic Church and still be a 'christian brother' according to the Roman Catholic Church? My understanding that the official position of the RCC is that there is no salvation outside of the RCC. Did they change that position?

    What exactly is their heresy? (They reject that Christ was two seperate beings, one divine residing in a seperate human being named Jesus and refused to accept the Chalcedonian Creed as a step backwards towards the recently rejected heresy of Nestorianism.)

    500 years ago ...

    [from Wikipedia] The schism between Oriental Orthodoxy and the adherents of Chalcedonian Christianity was based on differences in Christology. The First Council of Nicaea, in 325, declared that Jesus Christ is God, that is to say, "consubstantial" with the Father. Later, the third ecumenical...

    Very Liberal Christianity

    Politically (as in the platforms of party politics in the USA), I agree. It is just part of how political machines build a coalition. On the street, where real people live, that is not the reality. For example, Foster Parents are overwhelmingly Christians. Food Pantries are overwhelmingly...

    500 years ago ...

    Technically, the Church has not been truly Catholic (Universal) since before AD 451 ... the date of the first split in the Christian Church. EDIT: Hey, 5th C, 11th C, 16th C ... looks like we are due for another.

    [Split] Very Liberal Christianity Abortion/Pro-Life posts

    I am somewhat confused. How is it "selfish" to be opposed to the mutilation of an unborn person because your fornication resulted in an inconvenient pregnancy? What makes "murder on demand" unselfish? The reality is that before the abortion, the unborn baby had a heart beat and a pulse and...

    Very Liberal Christianity

    No, it is MORE than 4 that creates a problem ... and only one of the Trinity is a 'person' in the Human Being/born of woman sense of the word. Even Scripture supports this ... when Jesus had something important to get done (like pray before his arrest), he only took 3 apostles along (3 apostles...
