Actually, I think your point was to school me on the use of numerology which in some cases could result in egg on my face, and according to your calculation my availing myself of such numerology did produce just that, a facial omelet. I am well aware that Scripture was not divided into chapters...

So you think I have egg on my face? Let me see. When Jesus made reference to His resurrection, He chose to compare it with the 3 days of Jonah in the belly of the fish. The greatest story typifying the death and resurrection is that of Abraham called to sacrifice his only son. From death to...

And what is exactly your contribution with that statement WT?

Whether Jesus spoke in Aramaic or not, doesn't change the fact that the Holy Spirit chose the Greek language to bring forth His Eternal Word. The Greek language being a much more precise language. And so I refer you to my post #1126 and rest my case. EPH. 1:19-23 And what is the exceeding...

No I was just playing with you. Showing how it is so easy to call something an exception when it's convenient in order to save face with your wrong theology. In reality Cornelius was not an exception. It was just time for Peter to realize that the Gospel was also for the Gentiles. And what...

It not about the name of Peter. Whether it's Peter, Simon or Simon Barjonah or Waldo, it's about the ROCK who is Jesus. The Rock of our faith who is bigger, greater, and infinitely more powerful and capable to build His church (THE BODY OF CHRIST) beyond what Peter could even fathom. This is...

Hey, let's be fair here, Buddy. If you're going to use exceptions to prove your points then what's good for the goose is good for the gander.

So really what you're saying is that it should read, "Peter, you are Peter and on this Peter I will build my Church. Makes a lot of sense. But I expect that from someone steeped in the fog of religious fallacy. Your church is NOT the supreme earthly Authority to teach and spread the Gospel. We...

Sorry, but the Holy Spirit saw fit to have this translated more precisely in Greek to Petros G4074 and Petra G4073. No amount of bold and larger font will change that. Petra being the larger rock Jesus was pointing to one of 2 possible options. 1) He would built His church on Peters confession...

Yes you are correct that was an error on my part, he was a gentile. Nevertheless my explanation still stands. Peter was called to the Jews not the Gentiles. Cornelius being an EXCEPTION (as you are so familiar with.) NOTICE, I am not afraid to admit to my mistakes.

So i guess you're going to ignore these verses just as you ignore the 2nd commandment so that you can produce your idols. Very convenient. Cornelius was a Jew but he would obviously be an EXCEPTION (like the thief on the cross remember that one)(when you use exceptions to prove a point they can...

So says you and you are not God.

And just to add to that, Stranger Galatians 2:6-8 And from those who seemed to be influential (what they were makes no difference to me; God shows no partiality)—those, I say, who seemed influential added nothing to me. 7 On the contrary, when they saw that I (Paul) had been entrusted with the...

Do you bring anything valuable to the discussion or are you just here to mouth off? Because that first ignorant comment is not a good way to start.

Am I the only one in this thread that recognizes this statement as the most ridiculous one ever, apart from BoL who made it?

Get used to that kind of slick response.

Obviously these are unanswered prayers for whatever reason. If God chose to hold them in a vial is totally up to Him and if also choose to have those vials held by elders then who am I to question. The question is not the manner that these prayers are held, it is the prayers themselves. They...

I love it when you just switch around words like that. "The Spirit will guide you (switch out YOU insert the CHURCH -- et voilà abracadabra) in all truth." The Spirit does not guide the individual but the church. Like I said before; slick. Except isn't the Pope an individual? Hmm? I will not...

Your 135 quotes refer to Jesus asking a question to His followers or the general populace. He doesn't even use the verb "to ask" He just poses the question. Ex.Mat. 6:27 "Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature?" But because "to ask" is part of the Webster definition of...

24 elders (we don't know who they are) have vials filled with prayers OF the saints (prayers that were directed to whom we don't know). But it is safe to interpret that these prayers were directed to God because He is the only One worthy of such and is the only One with Authority and Power to...
