    APOSTLE'S or NICENE Creed?

    No, that's merely one objection to the answers that the forum has given to his seemingly innocent question about which Creed we prefer. No matter what we reply, it allows him a chance to start a fight, and then to keep it going by changing his objections, one after another, in response to...

    As you have gotten older

    It isn't only your or their faith that determines this. You have already admitted--and correctly--that the unborn child is a human being, not some unfeeling tumor. That is a matter of science. It's a fact. And we do not get to make anything that is criminal--murder in this case--a matter of...

    Who is "him that justifieth the ungodly"?

    Sorry, no. That is not the meaning. And you cannot "know" something that isn't true or real (such as the example we've dealt with here), unless you want to say that you know it to be false.

    As you have gotten older

    I agree, which is why the example that we were offered prompted the reply I gave. That one did "affect" someone else. Fatally. That is indeed what the more liberal stance holds, but its devotees are what's called "science deniers" since the unborn child is not just a clump of cells (as used to...

    APOSTLE'S or NICENE Creed?

    Very amusing. You change your claim after what you wrote was refuted. So now, let's move along to your next allegation.... 1. Well, no one said that the creeds are "sacrosanct." 2. They of course were written by men. 3. And they quite obviously are not considered "untouchable" since the...

    As you have gotten older

    ?? I can't imagine why they'd put that label on you for not judging how other people live! I don't believe in stealing other people's possessions, and yet I do expect whatever powers that be to enforce that law in the case of any people who do engage in theft.

    Who is "him that justifieth the ungodly"?

    As noted earlier, that's only because you don't understand what "works" are. Get that straight and the rest of the posts here will probably begin to make sense.

    Faith

    The verse is not about receiving saving Faith, but about discerning the gifts of the Holy Ghost, which is something that follows the reception of Faith. Read the entire passage (verses 1-16 ) and you can see it.

    APOSTLE'S or NICENE Creed?

    That's close to what I have been thinking also. The premise was about the author's interest in knowing which of the Creeds the members prefer, but his subsequent posts seem focused on finding some way or other of denigrating the Creeds as inadequate.

    APOSTLE'S or NICENE Creed?

    You apparently don't know enough about this subject to be debating it. Here's the Niceno-Constantinopolitan Creed, commonly called the "Nicene Creed"-- "I believe in one God, the Father Almighty, maker of heaven and earth, and of all things visible and invisible; And in one Lord Jesus Christ...

    APOSTLE'S or NICENE Creed?

    The Creed is to be spoken. That's how it functions during the worship service. It's an affirmation of the speaker's belief in the contents. To think that the contents are superfluous since, after all, "it's already in Scripture" is to treat the Creed as something it is not.

    Who is "him that justifieth the ungodly"?

    Or... All the OT Saints as well as NT Saints have been acquited from all charges, guilt and punishment for their sins, SO LONG AS THEY BELIEVE IN THE SAVIOR WHO DID IT FOR THEM. All the Biblical evidence says that this is what Faith does and why it's necessary.

    I don't find belief to be volitional and I don't understand why the majority does

    In an absolute sense, it cannot be proven. Nor, for that matter, can I prove that you exist and vice-versa. But in the real world we all make assumptions based on strong probabilities. In the case of the Bible, we're talking about the most influential -- and most criticized -- book ever...

    I don't find belief to be volitional and I don't understand why the majority does

    Possibly. And if not, that's what's being said of someone else when the wording is as it originally was presented.

    I don't find belief to be volitional and I don't understand why the majority does

    And I don't see the sense in asking the question that way. Following that format, we could just as easily have asked what does a person have to lose by believing in the Big Bang model of the universe or the Loch Ness monster (?) Are we supposed to believe just about anything...so long as it...

    I don't find belief to be volitional and I don't understand why the majority does

    Divine revelation in the form of the Bible. That's answered in the Bible itself. If so, how is it that your reading of Scripture "missed" some of the key parts of the contents?

    I don't find belief to be volitional and I don't understand why the majority does

    Well, we all know people who DO! They could easily choose not to accept Jesus as the Messiah for a variety of reasons--not believing the claims made for Jesus, or being persuaded that some other religious leader is the 'real' one, or doubts about the accuracy of Scripture, or doubts about Jesus...

    What do you think about these Martin Luther quotes?

    Well, it does make a difference, you know. I'm sure that there do exist some such organizations, but none of what you've referred to here suggests Freemasonry.

    What do you think about these Martin Luther quotes?

    And I think you may be too gullible. By the way, which of those "highest ones" do you know personally? What about them have you observed that you consider evil? ...which is not Freemasonry. Incidentally, the Masons were among the most persecuted of Hitler's victims. Wow. But in 2010, it...

    Who is "him that justifieth the ungodly"?

    Yes, but your mistake is so elementary. Many things can have two or more qualities at once. But your notion is that Faith is ONLY the evidence of things not seen. That isn't what the Scripture says about Faith. You just assumed something (as usual) and it never entered your mind that the...
