1) John 17 was probably a prayer for the disciples, given context. Extrapolating all of it to the rest of Jesus' followers might not be a stretch, but keep that in mind.2) When scripture says "whosoever will" believe in Jesus shall have eternal life, the question we must ask is who can believe...

Hosea 4:6My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge Because you have rejected knowledge, I also will reject you from being My priest Since you have forgotten the law of your God, I also will forget your children.

The Big Bang has a lot of flaws. This is putting it generally, but one of the flaws is dealing with the expansion rate of the universe and temperature.

(Pildit;37927) All anyone has right now is theories. And logic...(Pildit) No the question was what do I do that isn't to do with survival. Well... I write posts like this for one, I watch TV, I play video games... plenty, however what I said still applies because if I didn't have enough food...

(Pildit;37599) I already addressed this. We as a whole human race don't know. I openly admit that we don't know, we have no evidence in the direction of finding out. Logically it has to be something, but what that something is. We or I don't know. Speak for yourself. Me personally? Plenty of...

(Pildit;37251) The big bang theory as a whole is quite broad.My inclinations tilt more towards that there was some sort of collision between planets.Earth and life on it didn't come from NOTHING, I'm in now way suggesting that it did. What I am saying is there would have been things already in...

(kalixx;37120) Why should life have to have a purpose? Because it was created for a reason.Why is there something rather than nothing?

(Hawkins;37102) Sure. You are right. To me, it's a prophecy, it's a parable and it's a historical event all at the same time. And so is the story of Noah. What does that mean?

(Hawkins;36847) This is actually the Adam and Eve parable "Adam and Eve" was not a parable...

Let me try to keep this simple: are you looking for objective evidence that God exists or that the Christian God exists? I'm not sure of your aim here.Secondly, referring to anything as evil from an "agnostic atheist" point of view does not make sense. It may not fit your preferences, but...

(Wayne Murray;36778) Sorry, this statement is very wrong. God has foreknowledge of mankind or society in general but not of individual decisions. This statement is very wrong.Psalm 139:4 - Even before there is a word on my tongue, Behold, O LORD, You know it all.

1 John 5:7 is an addition which was not in the original texts. For starters...

(waynemlj;35790) Hi EK Pyros,I listen to Dr. Sproul's teachings every morning on the Internet, have several of his books, and am a partner in his ministry.I am very glad to know that you have followed his teachings and seem to know them well. So then, you can see where I'm going with my...

Abiogenesis is evolution's explanation. Abiogenesis is false.Evolution is also false, but as Jon-Marc intimated, it is not a direct challenge to creation.

(eternalarcadia;35447) well if God predetermined who would be saved that brings up the issue of Gods love. Why would he create someone just to throw them in the pit. That's not an accurate understanding of predestination. God saves some and gives justice to others. He is never unjust, and that...
