    Bullying - A Necessary Evil? Part of natural selection?

    Saying to any "Man up" is never the right thing, there is an attitude problem of those who say that with the assumptions they make, it is not what is called for to deal with bullies, and victims of bullies are not at fault. Bullying is never justified to have in any occasion. We are told...

    comparing 7 different denominations

    I think I should still clarify this, I mean I don't claim veganism is essential in being saved, as it is that becoming Jewish is not essential in being saved. Not using animal products was neglected soon in Christianity after the first believers, and then through Christian history, because...

    comparing 7 different denominations

    No. Neither the Seventh Day Adventist church nor I say veganism is a biblical principle to be observed. Though you would respond that it is to the contrary, with verses that there are, which you could, there is basis for veganism in verses of the Bible. I could then still respond refuting that...

    Math = White Privilege?

    Yahweh God who is Creator has all the mathematical knowledge. Humans made in God's image have ability to some extent modeled on God's ability. Any human people if not damaged have potential for understanding a good deal of mathematics. Racists do not have legitimate basis to say the capacity is...

    Are Christians obligated to keep the Sabbath?

    If you are observing Jesus all day every single day, great for you. Indeed! I don't manage that and I am not meeting any people I ever see doing this. Still, no one ever observed Sabbath rightly before Jesus came. Only with Jesus is it possible, for only in Jesus is there that rest. I don't...

    Sharing statements on Christian theology

    I have to wonder how old you really are. Is there maturity shown with this response? Must there be personal remarks brought in, and basis to say I or any will die in our sins? I wouldn't tell others they will die in their sins anyway without sharing the way from God's grace to have deliverance...

    God still chooses.

    God is sovereign in choosing what will happen. Yet God leaves some things to our choice, and allows consequences to happen from our choices. That God says to choose in places in the Bible means that we really do choose in things. It is not even just the redeemed who are given choice in things...

    When a Christian Forum is Hijacked by White Nationalists, lol

    That attitude against "race-mixers" was actually very common across the country earlier, what is seen of it in the last couple of decades is a remnant of that. They are not new at all. You might know of them to have "more or less burst onto the scene at the same time", but that would have...

    comparing 7 different denominations

    I need to find a church that is biblically based, not appealing to leaders as prophets, that is consistent with acknowledging vegan basis in scriptures.

    Proverbs 26:4-5

    The image is nice. Is it relating to the subject of Proverbs 26:4-5? Or is it relating to the Masoretic, the Septuagint, or other documents that are used for derived english translations? The image is of a page of an english translation, in the beginning rather than proverbs themselves. Maybe...

    God still chooses.

    From any of our positions we necessarily cannot understand most of the truth about God. We can though see what is in revelation from Yahweh for us, that we can understand enough for what to believe, and how to act from that. We can trust what is shown from that. Where we are told to choose, we...

    Proverbs 26:4-5

    Good textual criticism will consider all the sources. The Septuagint is not superior text to the Masoretic, even while the Masoretic is not perfect, and we have the scripture manuscripts from the Dead Sea Scrolls to be considered as well. I posted information I found for this here earlier...

    Sharing statements on Christian theology

    Instead of making personal remarks in response, it is desirable to show actual reasoning for conclusions, which are not yet shown. You are not the only one reading all the Bible many times. What is said can be turned around, that you badly mangle 2 Peter 3:9. I see this response to bringing up...

    Would you buy Hitler's art?

    I wouldn't go buy Hitler's art knowingly anyway, even if many people were saying it is good art. But I know, even if I wouldn't do that, others are not to be judged for it if they do, if it isn't obtained by having any being harmed by that. That indeed is a greater issue. There is something...

    Sharing statements on Christian theology

    That man wants to be his own god and that reigns in us, even if it seems generally true, is not a passage in the Bible I am familiar with. We do have choices, in some things, if we had no choices, we could give up on what life means for us. We don't just choose holiness, of course, but there is...

    Proverbs 26:4-5

    This explains Proverbs 26:4-5 very well, that instead of answering a fool (any denier of Yahweh God, or of basis for trusting faith in God) according to his folly that we would be like the fool, we should answer according to such folly that he won't be wise in his own eyes. I think the...

    OT post flood genealogy off a tad according to original hebrew text

    The best support of the Septuagint over other manuscripts neglects textual criticism that's a standard approach. The following is from https://creation.com/lxx-mt-response In two recent papers published in creationist literature, Henry Smith has argued that the Septuagint preserves a better...

    OT post flood genealogy off a tad according to original hebrew text

    I won't say that the masoretic text version is the perfect preservation of the Hebrew original writing of Yahweh's revealed word, it comes closer than other manuscripts to it. The Septuagent shows more that is highly questionable in its translation in comparison. Its additional name may be from...
