    Good and evil.

    Yes, God in in control. Romans 8:28-30 [NKJV] And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose. For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn...

    stewards entrusted with the mysteries of God

    Why? Before I get too much further into this, why must people think of us like this? Why can't most people think of us as a bunch of self-righteous hypocrites who just want to tell them what to do so we can feel better about ourselves? Or why can't they hold all men of the cloth in suspission...

    Lowliness is assured by majesty, weakness by power, mortality by eternity.

    Understanding Total Depravity as taught in Calvinism (from the Heidelberg Catechism of 1563): Q. What does God’s law require of us? A. Christ teaches us this in summary in Matthew 22:37-40: “‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.’1...

    The second commandment.

    That's OK, no need for an apology. I was happy to enlighten you. :D :whistle:

    The second commandment.

    (Exo 20:1-3) The first commandment: no other gods before Me. (Exo 20:4-6) The second commandment: You shall not make for yourself any carved image … you shall not bow down to them. (Exo 20:7) The third commandment: You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain. Technically, this is...

    Jesus is 100% God and 100% man at the same time

    Does Pedrito read Kioine Greek? Atpollard does not, so he trusts the translations of multiple teams of translators spread throughout time and denominations to provide him with the range of meanings that a reasonable expert might draw from the original text. Atpollard relies on the wisdom of...

    Jesus is 100% God and 100% man at the same time

    1. How many of those other people who sacrificed themselves, had the power to take their life up again afterwards? Is history awash with that as well, or could that be where the omnipotence comes into play? 2. I have not read the First Vatican Council, Dogmatic Constitution on the Catholic...

    The Holy City - All who would might enter

    The light of God was on its streets Revelation 21:23 The city does not need the sun or the moon to shine on it, for the glory of God gives it light, and the Lamb is its lamp. The gates were open wide, Revelation 21:21 The twelve gates were twelve pearls, each gate made of a single pearl. The...

    Can the devil harm you as you sin?

    Yes. Which do most people know more about the general social character of in the modern world: Ancient Bethlehem or the Bible Belt? Ancient Moab or Las Vegas?

    Can the devil harm you as you sin?

    I know of a woman, a godly woman with good husband and two fine sons. Life was good and everyone described her as 'pleasant'. One day, the crops failed for several years in a row and they were forced to abandon the family farm in the Bible Belt and seek employment in Las Vegas (sin city)...

    Do you use the law or morals to justify punishing people for their faults.

    You mean like doing things like calling themselves a believer and sleeping with his father's wife in the name of Christian freedom? Yeah, I think he might 'mistreat' someone like that (assuming that we accept public confrontation and excommunication as 'mistreat'.) I think Paul was far more...

    Jesus is 100% God and 100% man at the same time

    Could to restate this in short sentences with simple words? I have no idea what it says, or if it is making a point or asking a question.

    Jesus is 100% God and 100% man at the same time

    Do you see the "no one takes it from me, but I lay it down of myself"? It means NO ONE takes it from Jesus but Jesus lays it down HIMSELF. Jesus claimed Divine Authority and Power.

    Jesus is 100% God and 100% man at the same time

    I hope you don't mind if I grab the low hanging fruit rather than take all the questions in order. This one is easier to explain. John 10:17-18 “Therefore My Father loves Me, because I lay down My life that I may take it again. No one takes it from Me, but I lay it down of Myself. I have...

    Do you use the law or morals to justify punishing people for their faults.

    Since everyone else already took the 'negative' side of this discussion, I guess that leaves me with the 'affirmative' position (or else it is not really much of a discussion). 2 Timothy 3:1-5 1 But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. 2 People will be lovers of themselves...

    Jesus is 100% God and 100% man at the same time

    Since this thread is SO LONG, I just wondered if these questions were ever answered for you.

    Do you use the law or morals to justify punishing people for their faults.

    I'm guessing "naw, I do it just because it is fun" ... would be an inappropriate answer.

    Our special Earth

    I have to go to bed, so why don't you read about water meniscus and then reread what I wrote and try again. You can get a glass and see for yourself. You do not need to take anyone's word for it. YOU SAID WATER NEVER CURVES.
