    World Are fear and ignorance driving our politics?

    Prudence and caution do not need to mean prejudice and hostility. One can be just and fair while also being prudent and cautious. One can be kind and compassionate while being prudent and cautious. There's no need for fear to drive one's politics into the mould of Donald Trump's policy of walls...

    visionary, I see a flood of posts that (no doubt) has something to do with James [the just] being the first bishop of Jerusalem but I don't see why any of it is relevant to either the thread's topic or to the question of the relative rank/authority/status as servants of the Lord of the apostles...

    Have you noticed ...

    A rather poorly documented source. The quote actually comes from Book II Chapter 1 section 3 of the Ecclesiastical History of Eusebius and that chapter saysChapter 1. The Course pursued by the Apostles after the Ascension of Christ. 1. First, then, in the place of Judas, the betrayer, Matthias...

    Don't the Sabbath laws prohibit any manual labour? Surely carrying one's bed breaks the letter of those laws or are you going to claim - with the benefit of hindsight and the doctrine of the sinlessness of Christ - that carrying one's bed on the sabbath is fine?Remember that you are to sanctify...

    World Are fear and ignorance driving our politics?

    You use terms that are really prejudiced in the worst sort of way; "afraid of offending", "overrun", "more Muslims". I think your post is an excellent example of fear driven politics.

    Yet free enough to heal on the Sabbath and to instruct the person healed to rise up walk and carry his 'bed' with him.

    Why was Mary necessary?

    The problem is more that they strip away the Lord's humanity and in so doing they abrogate the atonement and destroy God's purpose in the salvation of his people from their sins. Because if the Lord in heaven is not also man in heaven then what hope is there that any man shall ever enter heaven...

    Is Dominion over the earth for this age or the next?

    You say it is in grave error and that revelation is against it but you don't spell out where revelation says something against it.

    Is Dominion over the earth for this age or the next?

    We can still discuss the ideas in the first post ... Some preachers teach that the world will be converted to Christ and that thus the dominion of the kingdom of God over the Earth will be established progressively step by step as godly men and women take authority over the various spheres of...

    Paint is mentioned in the bible :smirk: For, just as the architect of a new house will have concern for the entire structure, and, in truth, he who takes care to paint it will seek out what is fitting to adorn it, so also should such things be considered by us. (2 Maccabees 2:30)

    Baptism by sprinkling

    Since no passage in the holy scriptures and no apostolic tradition requires that a man or woman be submerged in order to be truly baptised as a Christian is it not wicked to teach that such a requirement is binding upon the faithful?

    Controversial: strange fire ... first presentation.

    I know how wrong it is to assume that Presbyterians teach such and such because one's Calvinist friend who attends a Presbyterian church said this or that. The same is true for Baptist doctrine and Lutheran doctrine yet some in CH seem to think that vague impressions from childhood or the gossip...

    No condemnation ...

    visionary, Jesus was not so scrupulous of the Law as some say he was. He kept it but more in the spirit of it than in the letter of it as the Pharisees were inclined to say one must. Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, who are not walking according to the...
