    USA bombing Iran

    Are you absolutely certain you are not making a false accusation? Remember that an accusation is one of your works that is written in the books from which you will be judged.

    USA bombing Iran

    So let me make sure I understand you: You are accusing the United States of deliberately targeting school children with the intent to kill them?

    Predestination vs Free Will

    But this is dictated by a belief that the future is fixed by the past and we are nothing but observers of it in something we think of as the present. Time doesn't work that way, there is no such thing as absolute time and linear progression of time, with past determining future, is a simple...

    Crime Doesn't Pay

    This was interesting although I think the title theme of his sermon might have been a bit limiting to the full message he delivered in it. It did lead me to a deeper consideration of the meaning of John 3:36, something I hadn't given any thought to before.

    Predestination vs Free Will

    Freewill is simply the ability to choose between alternatives, an infinite number in the case of God and a finite number in the case of Man since his creation from an infinite number of possibilities limits his choices to those God chose before him. Can God sin? This is a semantic play based...

    USA bombing Iran

    How am I doing this? And what does that have to do with the Pope and pacifism and whether it is good or not? Can you further explain what you are meaning?

    USA bombing Iran

    But is that a good thing? Matthew 10:34 "Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword."

    USA bombing Iran

    Well, we certainly did it when we went up against Iraq. Keep in mind that it is the 'civilian' power grid that supplies the military needs for power. As to the war crime, it is not a war crime to attack a power grid when it is done for military purposes, only when it is done strictly to go...

    Predestination vs Free Will

    I've heard this described as two books, the book of works in which every work, action, word, etc. that we engage in is recorded and the Book of Life which is a book of pardons in which all who have repented and been saved are written to be pardoned their sins that those who have not in it will...

    Predestination vs Free Will

    In Gen 1:27 we find that we are created in the image of God, that we are a reflection of him, a microcosm of the macrocosm that is God. So when we question whether Man has freewill we are, in effect, questioning whether God has free will since we are in his image. God is a creator, man is a...

    Do Christians need struggle to grow?

    Proverbs 17:3 – "The crucible for silver and the furnace for gold, but the Lord tests the heart."

    The bible rejects doing wrong so that good may come

    In that case, this would be worth considering: Ezekiel 33:2-6: Son of man, speak to the children of thy people, and say unto them, When I bring the sword upon a land, and the people of the land take one man from among them all, and set him for their watchman: if he see the sword coming upon...

    AI historical and archaeological evidence of Jesus

    Mine responded with this: Gemini said To address this question, it’s helpful to distinguish between "Jesus the theological figure" (the Savior) and "Jesus the historical man." While archaeology hasn't uncovered a "smoking gun" like a signed diary or a thumbprint, the vast majority of secular...

    The bible rejects doing wrong so that good may come

    I would like it if you could give some examples of those things, they don't have to be actual ones just representative ones would work, for further specific discussion. We all have a tendency to see our own thinking as righteous unless examined from different standpoints of others. FWIW, I...

    What if you had this power?:

    Moses standing before the Pharos magicians in Egypt is a good example of this, and as he led Israel out of Egypt and through the desert as well. (FWIW, that power is still available to you if you understand how he means you to use it and use it in accordance with that understanding.)

    Did you know that in the bible it is ok to put a curse on someone?Sometimes?:(

    Among other things, there is a difference between calling something a curse and casting a curse. But in any event, keep in mind that curses are like the birds Noah released from the Ark, if they can't find a place to land they return to the one that loosed them, this means that casting a curse...

    Costco Food Court?

    That was a sort of tongue in cheek comment, but try typing Costco into a YouTube search to get an idea what I meant, or driving by my local Costco and seeing a hundred or more foot long line waiting to get in a half hour before opening time.

    World Crisis in the Middle East -- Is This Armageddon?

    This leads to the basic ontological conflict, two opposing sides each demanding the other be what they want them to be instead of being what they want themselves to be. A conflict that is only resolved by total control of one side over the other or the total destruction of one or both sides...
