    HOMOSEXUALITY REVISITED

    Of course you don't believe in the actual body and blood of Christ being present in the Eucharist despite the fact that it is there in the Holy Bible. That is why St. Paul says that some of them were weak, sick, and fallen asleep....because they were not discerning what they were eating and...

    The Rise of Individualism in the Church: Both Liberal and Conservative

    Abraham had many sons, (See Genesis 25:1-6), but none of these sons were chosen by God.....not even Ishmael who was Abraham's first born. It was through Isaac's line that the Davidic Kingdom was to come. God made a covenant with Abraham and promised him that he would have many descendants...

    The Rise of Individualism in the Church: Both Liberal and Conservative

    How so? I certainly did not twist anything. It is true that God chooses the weak, the poorest, the handicap, and even the worst sinners to carry out His plans. Here are the facts. 1. Among all the people of the world, God chose Israel. Why? Because the Hebrews were slaves in...

    HOMOSEXUALITY REVISITED

    I responded to David's post when he posted: " If it takes only one sin to earn a person spiritual death, then every sin is serious." I simply quoted scripture showing that there are some sins that don't lead to death according to St. John. Your argument is that St. John was referring to a...

    The Rise of Individualism in the Church: Both Liberal and Conservative

    It was men who wrote the Holy Bible, and you believe the Holy Bible to be the infallible word of God. The infallible Holy Spirit uses fallible men to write infallibly. God has always used the weak and even the worst sinner to carry out His plan. He does not choose the strongest, the wisest...

    HOMOSEXUALITY REVISITED

    St. Paul was speaking about something different. The problem is that some of the Corinthians did not discern the bread and wine to be the actual body and blood of Christ. You took 1 Corinthians 11:31-32 out of context. 1 Corinthians 11:29-32 Everyone ought to examine themselves before...

    Adam had free will?

    Adam had free will, but you did not want to listen to our answers. Adam had free will all along because all during that time when God told him not to eat from that tree, he obeyed God and avoided the tree until a serpent came down and convince them otherwise. You don't need anyone to come down...

    HOMOSEXUALITY REVISITED

    Everyone dies a physical death including those who have lesser sins. In fact, even Jesus Christ died a physical death, and He didn't have any sins. St. John was referring to a spiritual death. There are sins that does not lead to death......meaning they are not condemn to Hell.

    HOMOSEXUALITY REVISITED

    According to the Holy Bible, there are some sins that don't lead to death. In other words, those who commit these lesser sins can be saved from the fires of Hell. 1 John 5:16-17 If you see any brother or sister commit a sin that does not lead to death, you should pray and God will give...

    A JUDAS TYPE OF REPENTANCE

    In the beginning, we can see that Judas was corrupted when he betrayed our Lord, but towards the end, the Bible did say that there was some kind of repentance. In other words, Judas regretted and was sorrowful for what he did. He recognized that what he did was wrong and even returned the...

    A JUDAS TYPE OF REPENTANCE

    While it's true that scripture says that Judas would be better off if he had never been born....this does not mean that he is in Hell. It simply means that his betrayal was a very grave sin......so grave that "it would be better if he had never been born." Scripture also says that Judas went to...

    The Rise of Individualism in the Church: Both Liberal and Conservative

    Each person can have an impact or affect other members in the body of Christ. If one member in the body of Christ sins, his/her sin not only hurts the person but other members as well and can even lead others to stumble and fall into sin. The same can also be said if God makes a person holy...

    2 Christian couples living under the same roof....

    I agree with Angelina. Since you have already made the decision to live together (despite that there is no sex), you can enjoy a married life together and pray together for healing. Marriage is a beautiful thing in which two souls share and become one body.

    The god of free will

    Man has free will. It came from God, who also has free will.

    In Metaphor of Ducklings

    Rex, you didn't answer the question. Who is your leader?

    In Metaphor of Ducklings

    Yes, I would also like to know who is the leader he follows. And if he says he follows no leader.....then how is he following the scripture in Hebrews 13:17??

    In Metaphor of Ducklings

    So, are you saying then that Hebrews 13:17 is wrong?? And what makes you think that we are not following the rest of the other verses you quoted?? It appears that you are not only against the Pope, but also against Joel Osteen. Athough it's obvious that Joel Osteen has no background in...

    In Metaphor of Ducklings

    I have no problems with Joel Osteen. As Aspen said, if he isn't against us, he is for us. Joel Osteen hasn't bashed or put down any other Christian denomination, which makes him more of a Christian.

    In Metaphor of Ducklings

    Hebrews 13:17 Have confidence in your leaders and submit to their authority, because they keep watch over you as those who must give an account. Do this so that their work will be a joy, not a burden, for that would be of no benefit to you. THEN it appears that WE are indeed following what...
