Steven, I cannot square the idea of universal salvation when the scriptures so clearly state the following: “When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, then he will sit on the throne of his glory. All the nations will be gathered before him, and he will separate people...

The International Fellowship of Christians and Jews, IFCJ I cringe when I see and hear the advertising for this organization. How can any TRUE Christian associate with this organization or contribute God's money to it? "Be not unequally yoked with unbelievers: for what fellowship have...

I'm not a "KJV Only" person, but there are reasons to still use the KJV with confidence. One, it is keyed to the Strong's numbering system for one, so it is a good starting point for study. Two, it was translated before the modern culture wars of today which introduced bias on homosexuality &...

Correct! In addition, the description of or defining elements of a "homosexual" do not appear anywhere in scripture. BUT, there are men whose description of conduct matches the meaning of a "sodomite".

Your method of proof texting is similar to the Jehovah's Witnesses when give a list of verses trying to prove Jesus was created, when they don't understand the very verses that they line up. Here are just very short, fast replies to your list - Gen 2:24 RV "Therefore shall a man leave his...

Yes, my language shows my impatience and some 'righteous indignation' at the writings of many, and yes, I suppose it sometimes sounds rude. There is a reason for this. When you have had to deal with this subject within the family, in concrete reality not in the abstract; it truly becomes a very...

I still do not see you showing your opinions are based squarely on the Scriptures. As far as I can see, not a single biblical reference is given by you. You write "I don't know you", and that is why I give source authorities, not my own individual opinion! I base my beliefs squarely on...

Those persons in the churches who wish to use 1 Cor. 6:9 to condemn homosexuals to hell, had better learn the difference between a "sodomite" and a "homosexual", or it will be they who are seriously judged on the last day. Does the scenario in the OP fit the description of a sodomite? No, it...

For those having an IQ above 80, and are interested enough to read this thread objectively, I'll add this Reply to my earlier post. The Evangelical scholars, even some who translate, conflate the words "homosexual" and "sodomite". Those are two words with different meanings, and most thinking...

You seem to be going around in circles. Make a plain statement of belief upon scripture and show how it helps to understand the Christian male who happens to love only other males. What are the "fruits" by which we are known? Define the broad term "unGodly behaviors" as it fits this thread...

EG, I have a question for you, and others: How do you, or any other prophecy scholar here, differentiate the time of Antiochus epiphanies, from the time thought to be about 70 AD? When I read Daniel I do not always see how those who have studied this deeply know when the text refers to one or...

The Greek English Lexicons do NOT define the two words in question as homosexuals, or males in a loving relationship with each other. I'll give the full definitions, and the BDAG is the most modern and highly respected Lexicon. A Greek-English Lexicon of the New Testament and Other Early...

You need to keep up with how even Biblical scholars continue to learn and change their mind, as the author you quoted did on LGBTQ. Theologian Richard B. Hays changed his mind and then taught 'inclusion'. We may not like how he speaks of God changing his mind, he at least corrected a serious...

The web site Webmd.com gives a very brief current understanding of sexual orientation, and unless one is belligerently and willingly ignorant, they know this common knowledge of today. What Determines Sexual Orientation? Most scientists agree that sexual orientation (including homosexuality...

I see, so the Deacon's son chose, made a decision, to be attracted to and love only other males? Do you remember making a decision about, or choosing your sexual orientation? Have you never seen the amazing videos of a child born without arms, who learns to pick things up and handle them...

What did the scenario state about the Deacon's son? The boy said "I have never had such feelings for a female, and in fact I find it repulsive to imagine sexual intercourse with a female." The Deacon's son was NEVER in any M-F relationship mentally or physically, from which to leave or...

The Millennium is from the cross to the return of Christ, the 1000 years being symbolic, not literal, so the coming of Christ is after the millennium, POST-MIL. The gospel spreads the God's kingdom across the world, and it changes mankind over time. Jesus said about the Jews: "For the gate is...

If a nation refuses to abide by God's word, and if the church in the nation does not experience a true Holy Spirit revival, I'm inclined to agree.... the USA and the west are gone, lost! A society cannot continue to reverse the order of rule and leadership in family and society set by God and...

I see two replies that have quoted the NKJV which reads as follows: "Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor [a]homosexuals, nor sodomites..." [a] 1 Corinthians 6:9 catamites, those...

Adam and Eve had a free will. Once they sinned, free will was lost and man's will became bound to his sinful nature. Man indeed makes choices daily, he has 'free agency', but he is never totally free from his sin nature, even in his state of being regenerate. From another view, how can a...
