I am especially cautious of your interpretations of Scripture, as with a little finesse, you admitted:

With being all powerful and all knowing, and not being able to deny Himself, God cannot restrict His own nature. Therefore, He must know everything past, present and future.

Thank you for joining, Stumpmaster. God is not fooled. Therefore it must be that He intended to give Adam and Eve knowledge, and He didn't need to.

Let's consider how knowledge is obtained. Keep in mind, this is a pro-debate environment. Colossians 1:16-17 For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things...

Angelina did suggest we could start threads in the Fellowship Forum. I think it's the General Discussion Forum for us Christians.

Debating Biblical Epistemology This debate thread was inspired by the amount of non-debate threads that thrive here in the debate forum. Since such threads are irrelevant to the forum topic, they are considered spam by definition. At the time of writing this, we have spam thriving in our forum...

No, I used Scripture to correct you. It is crucial to know the difference between smoke and substance. 2 Timothy 3:16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:

Somebody is a liar. My God is Truth. John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. Are you sure it doesn't mean man is created under God?

Here's a teaching moment. This debate is about to go on a deeper level than you've taken it so far. We are going to distinguish metaphysical obedience from moral obedience, then I'm going to prove you wrong. God is sometimes morally disobeyed yet He is always metaphysically obeyed. In other...

How one might arrive depends on where one currently stands. Do you want to debate on whether or not God is in control of His own creative process? Adam naming animals does not mean that God didn't control Adam in doing it.

According to Renniks, there are certain areas in Scripture where we ought to not get our theology from. Scripture teaches otherwise. 2 Timothy 3:16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness...

A man can have dominion over the earth. But it is not without God over him. Proverbs 16:1 The preparations of the heart in man, and the answer of the tongue, is from the Lord. Proverbs 16:9 A man's heart deviseth his way: but the Lord directeth his steps.

God said He hated Esau, therefore Renniks concluded that if I'm correct, then there is a contradiction in Scripture. (???) If I am correct, you just made some sort of cheap strawman argument. As for your question on the whereabouts of 'Scripture saying God controls everything', I propose...

"Esau have I hated." (Romans 9) "Esau have I hated." (Romans 9)

Where's what say God controls everything?

Authentic love must be free... interesting phrase. Free from what? Do you mean free from God's control? That authentic love must not be caused by Love? Romans 9:13 As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated. 1 John 4:19 We love him, because he first loved us. A logical...

It's all about a sinful movement for pleasing the wicked.

Enoch responded contrariwise to a pro vaccination post, and in response was told to "stop whining" and to take his assumptions elsewhere. The afformentioned response against him was supported by many, and what puzzles me most is that all of this is happening in a debate forum. This entire...

Christian Debate Forum: I've just had my first dose of Covid vaccine! What are we supposed to debate here? Perhaps whether or not Deborah has had her first dose of Covid vaccine?

Why can He not create a rock so massive, that He cannot lift nor control it? Precisely because the affirmative is unintelligible. A rock which requires Him to have insufficient power can't exist, because He does have omnipotence - all power. Likewise, He is unable to create a being that has a...
