Nancy, the English language is not monolithic and understood differently by many. I find different versions of the Bible helpful in my discussions. When talking to theologians, I use the NASB, the gold standard, but when dealing with those less knowledgeable, I often quote from the NIV or even...

Sorry Mike. Been there, done that. It has been 5 years since my wife of 50 years went Home. Life offers no greater pain than this event. I have been following a helpful forum which deals with this event: Loss of a Spouse It is not a Christian forum, but there are a lot of Christians contributing.

In what way!!?? I listened to her and found no reason to disagree with her. As a non-charismatic, I thought she was rather inspiring.

I am sure that Aquinas would give any Christian a competition. A dedicated servant of Satan who declared that anyone who would not bow to Rome, should be separated from this life by beheading!! As I recall, he said that in his Summa Theologica, but it is not worth my time to search through the...

It is extremely important to me, as I see God's unveiling plan for the church. As we see in the chronology of Archbishop Athanasius, Paul's Epistle to the Hebrews, was his last epistle to any church, the Hebrew church at Jerusalem, as he was facing imminent death. It is the most important book...

The writer of Hebrews is not at all a mystery. One would have to have a very low opinion of the intelligence of the early church, if they didn't even know the canonicity of their own Scriptures. For sure, some lame-brained "scholars" have attacked the well-known authorship of Hebrews, in their...

Maybe they got the idea from the Bible, when God answered Hosea's prayer to have all the fetuses of the tribe of Ephriam aborted "For you have played the harlot, forsaking your God. 7 The days of punishment have come, The days of retribution have come; 11 As for Ephraim, their glory will fly...

HaHaHaHa!!! Magic trinkets, witches on broomsticks, and even far eastern pagan rosaries!! What next!! ?? Giggle!

Because every time you disagree with me, convinces me that I am correct.

I have no interest in discussing Romanism. I aleady know more about that than you will ever know. It is merely a pagan cult that was active long before the Advent. Roman Catholicism, is merely a continuation of pagan worship of the goddess, "Queen of Heaven" to whom the the pope kneels before...

Yep! Just the most elementary theology! "Man's body returns to the dust from whence it came; And the spirit returns to God who gave it." Ecclesiastes 12:7

Yeap!! That's what it took to become one of us in the flesh.

Yeah, He was talking to David!! It never says that everything that starts out in a womb will even be born. He knew who they would be from the foundation of the world, as well as those who would not be born at a specific time, but their spirit is still with God awaiting the appointed time.

Nope!! He never said He would teach the church things of the faith!! Scripture reference for that conspicuously missing. He said He would teach us all things! Those of us who had the indwelling Spirit. Obviously, the church was besought with heresy even during the times of the Apostles.

I haven't heard that yet. I have not only studied the Bible, but have all 38 volumes of the Early Church Fathers which I have also studied extensively. I am quite satisfied that my beliefs harmonize with all of those teachings. And BTW, Barnabas was never included in the writings of Church...

Sounds like dirty talk, doesn't it. :-)

I never said clay was worthless, in fact the opposite!! God created the entire world from clay, including all living beings. When Christ gave up His Godhood to become one of us, He consented to become God in the Flesh, a lump of clay. Everything we are, is clay. and everything we eat is clay...

By your own words, they are unborn! How can you kill something that has never been born!! :-) That's sort of a no-brainer.

Yes, I read your response, and I totally disagree with your take from that passage. The Holy Spirit will lead all of us who are born from above and thus filled with His Spirit.

The God of the Bible, not that you seem to have ever read it, because you never quote it. You just make a lot of noise. What kind of a piece of scum god says we are a lump of clay?? The God of Job!! The god you seem to hate! “The Spirit of God has made me, And the breath of the Almighty gives...
