    Now some people are stealing eggs!!!

    Ironically they ran on a slogan for change. That's exactly what they got. Not happy campers though. - LOL [

    It may be a hoax to prey on unhinged Democrats. - LOL [

    Now some people are stealing eggs!!!

    I loved all the puns in the reporting. - LOL "Breaking news." "Crack the case of egg burglaries." "Customers scrambling for eggs." To mention a few. [

    What is your best argument for the existence of God?

    Many understand the natural universe as proof of evolution. What do we see that is different than that? [

    Literal or Figurative - versus - Concrete or Abstract

    Interesting short video with N.T. Wright and Peter Enns. How does this affect the way we read and understand the Bible? [

    The Starbucks ladies green uniform

    Interesting topic. I had a career in graphic design, art direction, creative direction. Which included nine years of teaching design at private art colleges. Color theory was a favorite subject to speak about. For wardrobe, I know that Fall colors look best on me. Ironically I help my wife...

    What is the importance of piety?

    Yes... What is the importance, or value of piety? Common in Catholicism, not common in Protestantism. I'm very undisciplined in my Protestant faith. Which doesn't seem to distance me from God at all. However, I fully support growing Christians that use disciplines to gain maturity. What is...

    What is your best argument for the existence of God?

    I agree. Most any source can be argued against. But personal testimony is strong evidence. [

    What is your best argument for the existence of God?

    Which of those do you think is the strongest argument to an atheist? [

    What is your best argument for the existence of God?

    Seems to me that the argument for the existence of God is not for Bible believers but for those who discredit the Bible. Of what good is the Bible when used to address that audience? [

    What is the best argument for God's existence? - The Ontological Argument, - The Argument from Personal Experience, - The Kalam Cosmological Argument, - the Teleological Argument, - Paschal's Wager, and - the Moral Argument. See the OP for definitions and explanations. Or offer your own...

    "If" or "When"? - 1 John 1:9

    You seem to be condemning the whole Body of Christ except your little tribe. Was this God's plan for humankind? It's easy to identify a religious cult. They meet in the church across the street from your church. And they feel the same way about you. Where does that get us? [

    "If" or "When"? - 1 John 1:9

    St. SteVen said: Are you Catholic, or Orthodox? If you are Orthodox, doesn't that put you outside the Church? That sounds like British Israelism. How can you claim that all Christians are outside the Church, and therefore outside the Body of Christ, when you aren't in the...

    Are Thankfulness and Generosity key to a Blessed Life?

    We align ourselves with an outpouring of blessings, when we are thankful for what we have, and when we are generous with our means, using them to benefit others. True, or false? Let's discuss. ]

    "If" or "When"? - 1 John 1:9

    Are you claiming that "each other" refers to someone besides a priest? That is what it should mean. But I doubt that prohibits confession directly to God. (See 1 Timothy 2:5 and 1 John 2:1) God is omnipresent. He hears us when we pray. (inside or outside the church) I don't believe that...

    "If" or "When"? - 1 John 1:9

    That's a great point. We sin in ways we are not even aware of. Sin is bigger than anyone can manage. We depend on God's mercy. [

    "If" or "When"? - 1 John 1:9

    The "mother" church refused needed reformation. In that sense, the church had already crucified the Body of Christ through religious corruption. Furthermore, there is one God and one mediator between God and mankind, the man Christ Jesus. (1 Timothy 2:5) No need for a church or priest to...

    "If" or "When"? - 1 John 1:9

    I'll get some backlash on this one. What's new? - LOL If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. - 1 John 1:9 NIV If? (or when?) I checked the KJV. It also says "If". ??? What do you make of this? Why does it say "If"...

    At what point does a believer join the Body of Christ?

    The Body is made of parts. Not a Body part = not a part of the Body. 1 Corinthians 12:12 NIV Just as a body, though one, has many parts, but all its many parts form one body, so it is with Christ. Ephesians 4:16 NIV From him the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting...
