I would love Christian fellowship. But I find a forum format is not a good design for that, unless personal messaging is used. There are threads of discussion focusing on topics, and as Christians do not at all agree on everything, different positions on those subjects get discussed, or debated...
Oh look. I said Jesus may have driven a car. Now I have basis. There is nothing in the Bible showing he did not. There is then no basis to say he did not.
I see the same reasoning.
I wonder about this apologetic for Nazi Germany and especially dismissing that it was very evil, how it would slip into this forum site. How evil some other time or power was would be irrelevant to that. Nazi Germany was aggressive, that it was not known how other nations would respond is not...
Bob Dylan – 1964.
“Come senators, congressmen
Please heed the call
Don't stand in the doorway
Don't block up the hall
For he that gets hurt
Will be he who has stalled
The battle outside ragin'
Will soon shake your windows
And rattle your walls
For the times they are a-changin' “
Is that what you want to hear? Yes, it is possible that Jesus would be the only child Mary ever conceived and bore, who is one condemning here? Is it credible? It is with traditions appealed to for holding to that as the actual case. There is nothing biblically for that position. Biblically...
I don't know it all and claim it with certainty, it seems some are sheltered with those believing the same way and do not trust other believers they then find with some different beliefs would disagree peacefully and not be condemning. I do not know surely from what I read, but believers who are...
Sabbath is meant for man to be off from work to give the time to draw near to God, in God's will. Believers are not going to be judged for not understanding that. But any who keep others working for them from rest all that day from that work will be accountable to Yahweh for that.
I do not...
"1" is irrelevant, find any language you know that context would not be used.
"2" is irrelevant, because context would be used to not leave something that would be ambiguous that way.
"3" Jesus would not have brothers from Joseph, God the heavenly Father is the father to Jesus. His brothers...
We who are in Christ are not under judgment ever. That would not be a meaningful argument to use against Christian believers. For those who are not in Christ, they are subject to judgment anyway. And is there no obligation to not be ignoring the Sabbath, for them? It is among the ten...
This is irrelevant to the point I actually make. From what I know about languages, words meaning variable things not consistent with one another are defined by context, except in very poor writing or writing meant to be vague or confusing. Brother is a word used in various ways but primarily of...
Catholicism and Anglicanism along with other related groups have heavy emphasis on their traditions. They are still far removed from what was important to believers among the followers of Jesus in the starting generations. What those early followers found of importance was life-changing. They...
If the Bible does not show James was not the brother of Jesus, should I believe he was not when he said he was?
Even if you speak of a Greek word being used I am not believing that you have the grasp for speaking the Greek language at that time fluently. Though I don't either, I do know how to...
Your retaliatory Can you see? was in response to my question of can you see there is no shouting, but you seem to shout that back, ironically. I am not the one insisting you and others should believe that Mary consummated her marriage with Joseph, and lived and died as the rest of believers did...
There is no basis found in the Bible to say that Jesus went to India, but there are people that might believe that he did go, so it is inconclusive. There is no basis found in the Bible to say that Jesus drove a car, but if Jesus wanted to he could have, so it is inconclusive. The Jesus that...
I certainly missed the shouting, wherever that happened. My point is that the burden of having basis should be on those who made the first claim, historically it was such ones that claimed Mary always remained a virgin all through her marriage and the rest of her life, and that she was assumed...
