We can only hope that some uppity rednecks are trying to sound way less intelligent than they are. .

Have you ever heard of common grace (as opposed to saving grace)? Did you ever wonder why people don't keel over and die right after a sinful thought, expression, or action? Everytime your heart beats it is, in a very real albeit virtual sense, singing "Grace, Grace, Grace, Grace..." Your...

Here is why, as an Adventist, I believe America is in Trouble. What people don't realize (and understandably so) is that if voices defending the true Sabbath and warning of the National Sunday Law to come in the future are silenced, so far from protecting the religious liberty that Sabbath...

Do you think you have some exclusive title to this effort? What do you want, Dave? :hearteyes: .

You forgot: "Except ye become as little children..." You've got a "Sit at my feet and learn, Grasshopper" answer for everything, Dave. I love you, I really do. I just don't buy your schtick. Connect-every-dot doesn't work for me. You know that. This is nothing new with us. :hearteyes: .

Can't be the same law. Verses 16-18 of Hebrews 7 says the law that is being changed is carnal/fleshly, weak, and unprofitable: Heb 7:16-18 16 Who is made, not after the law of a carnal commandment, but after the power of an endless life. 17 For he testifieth, Thou art a priest for ever after...

You're either dancing around your words or you're not being clear enough about what you say from the outset. In any case, I'm not in the mood for the Sesame Street, bait-and-switch routine today, Dave. Either Adam and Eve were married before any words were spoken by anyone (because that's what...

By what figure does the Bible represent death? "But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope." 1 Thess. 4:13 (1 Cor. 15:18, 20) (John 11:11-14). NOTE: In sound sleep one is wholly lost to...

Let's look at this from the perspective of an adult with a fully formed frontal lobe and the ability to reason correctly. "Who else was Adam going to marry?" is not anywhere near to being the same question as: "Was Adam joined in holy matrimony to Eve as soon as she drew her first breath?"...

That's deep, Dave. I'm glad God spoke to you from His Word that Adam and Eve were married the moment Eve was created. He chose not to let me in on that. I figured it was remotely possible that there was some brief ceremony or something that He might've chosen to leave out of the story—part of...

Wrong/right about what? :hearteyes: .

I see you're back. How's Saginaw? And Dorothy? .

The whole of the Old Testament law is about the injustice and unforgiveness of rebellion and the justice and mercy of God. Exodus 34 6And the Lord passed before him and proclaimed, “The Lord, the Lord God, merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abounding in goodness and truth, 7keeping...

You have no idea what you're talking about. I was raised in an "eternal security" church and although I was taught that my salvation was irrevocable, every other sermon was about the punishment for sin and creating doubt as to whether one's salvation was sincere and legitimately received if they...

He didn't teach the need for people to forgive others on the condition of repentance. True repentance is virtually absent from someone that would require forgiveness by a human being 490 times (Matthew 18:22—which is just a symbolic number for "endlessly"). :hearteyes: .

Who do you think Peter was being led by when he had all of his funny ideas? You've got a lot to learn and little incentive or inclination to do so, I'm afraid. Whatever spirit is leading you must cause people to prance around arrogantly esteeming themselves better than others (Philippians 2:3). .

Glad you're getting out and about, Sis! My wife loves the scallops breaded, air-fried, with cocktail sauce! :hearteyes: .

Have you not been paying attention? There's no such thing as a "New Testament believer." That's just a term somebody made up to try to convince himself he could wrestle loose from having to make Jesus his LORD as well as his Saviour. .

Yeah, if someone suggests that you might be confused that's always a sure sign that they're stupid. What does it feel like to be nowhere in the vicinity of the shed at all? .

Still working hard to win friends and influence people, I see. I wish I had your gift for self-entertainment. .
