    Is that double predestination? God made people just for hell and others just for heaven? Sent from my LGLS755 using Tapatalk

    COMMUNION: Does "is" mean "is?" Catholic, Lutheran, Evangelical

    In post 495 I posted scripture from the gospel of John. He brings up 'manna' to the Jews and refers to himself as the bread of life from Heaven. Jews believed death was like an empty stomach thus eating the flesh of Christ and drinking his blood is referring to Christ IN you, fulfilling you, the...

    Say something nice about the person above you thread

    Josiah is the most polite and patient patron on the boards. A friend who listens and respects his counterpart in debate with a keen and well spirited character. He can also throw down eye catching format that hasn't failed to draw me into his intellect via curiosity. I really enjoy my...

    So you say he is speaking metaphorically or 'could be' in this case (the metaphoric word being 'bread')? The road is sharp and narrow and just because so many Christians believe that Jesus is made of bread and wine and have believed it for 1500 years does not mean that I should just be apart of...

    So Jesus can speak in parables but not metaphors? He is the bread of life come down from Heaven, he is explaining this to Jews... how is this meaning fixated on actual bread and wine?

    Justification

    We are justified because we believe, when you believe you dont just go around showcasing your belief by dogmatic ritual, whatever your good works are -are hidden, you can still go to church and participate in traditions as long as you will it you but it won't justify your faith if you already...

    The Jews then murmured at him, because he said, I am the bread which came down from heaven. And they said, Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? how is it then that he saith, I came down from heaven? Jesus therefore answered and said unto them, Murmur not among...

    Exactly, no matter your denomination we adhere to we can always find room to think for ourselves in regards to what certain scripture represents. We are gentiles and it is thus impossible to not get lost in ancient jewish translation (according of course to their culture and customs) as many...

    Of course Jesus is the Truth I will never deny that. Jesus told his disciples to take the bread and eat, and to take the wine and drink, and they did so... in revelation John says to the church of Laodicea that the lord will sup with them also. I believe its something bigger than just attending...

    Also according to Strong's, Jews in the OT times defined 'death' as that of an empty stomach, weak and starving, striving to survive (I remember this quite clearly in my Strong's studies a few years back)... It must have been 'symbolic' of what 'we' assume death to be, im guessing that actual...

    COMMUNION: Does "is" mean "is?" Catholic, Lutheran, Evangelical

    It can only be symbolic, we know what 'truth' is and so we can suggest 'literal' by those terms. When a believer says they are covered in the blood of Christ we know that they are referring strictly to the new covenant/testimony of Christ/gospel/good news and our atonement through Jesus Christ...

    Can babies be conscious of their baptism?

    This question was brought up because I favored adult baptism over infant baptism. I argued that the baptism should be done on a willing consciously-aware-of-repentance-and-sin adult and not forced on a baby due to fearful parents. I have since changed my mind (kind of) but I encourage adult...
