    Do you not know that Eve was created from the rib of Adam? Do you not know that Adam said to Eve, "You are bones of my bones, and flesh of my flesh?" So, yes, Christ married His body (which is the Church) just as Adam was married to Eve who was created from his own body. Do you now understand...

    I think it is very important for Christians to spread the truth about research studies on STDs regarding homosexuality. We should also allow more ex-gays to speak out more on how they are able to give up their gay lifestyle. It is possible to give up the gay lifestyle. The better educated...

    And that is why the Church is called the "Bride of Christ."

    Australia bans same sex marriage.

    KCKID, it was Christ who gave the Church the authority to bind and loose. So, when the Church grant the annulments, it is permissible for the person to remarry according to both the Church and God. The Church usually reviews the case of the separation of the couple and makes the determination...

    Jiggyfly, the fact stands that the Bible does refer to Christ as a bridegroom, and I already showed you who that bridegroom is according to scripture. If you believe that Christ is married to a stone city, that is your belief. We believe that Christ is a bridegroom, and the bride is the...

    Australia bans same sex marriage.

    In the Catholic Church, there are couples who have received annullments. In the Philippines, for example, divorce is illegal, so many obtain anullments there in order to remarry. In Guam, divorce is legal and a couple can divorce. I know of two couples who have obtained an annulments and it...

    Australia bans same sex marriage.

    If the heterosexual couple is truly sorry, their penance is to get an annulment and they would be obedient if they were truly sorry. In the case of the gay couple, if they are truly sorry, they would remain celibate. It is not needed to annul a gay marriage because in the eyes of the Church...

    All you had to do was read the next verse to find the Bride's identity. I already told you that New Israel and New Jerusalem is another name for the Church. Revelations 21:9-10 And there came unto me one of the seven angels which had the seven vials full of the seven last plagues, and...

    The word "repent" means to make a 180 degree change in your life. There is no such thing as "can't stop." All things are possible through God. If a person really wants to stop beating his wife, he won't just ask God for forgiveness, he will enroll himself in an anger management course or get...

    Those who are wicked are the unrepentant sinners. Sinners who confess their sins and repent from them are following God's will. The unrepentant sinners are those who love their sins and don't see anything wrong in what they are doing.

    Revelations 21:9 And there came unto me one of the seven angels which had the seven vials full of the seven last plagues, and talked with me, saying, Come hither, I will shew thee the bride, the Lamb's wife. The Lamb of God seated at the throne is Christ. In Matthew 9:15, Christ refers to...

    It means that all those who do wicked things will not have eternal life....simple as that. Surely, you did expect God to be the King and the one in charge in His Kingdom....did you not?? As for the 4th commandment, I already explained that under your thread on the Sabbath.

    101, do not take the verse out of context. The verse is not saying that the priesthood changed so that women can now be priests. This is what it is saying: Hebrews 7:9-17 And as I may so say, Levi also, who receiveth tithes, payed tithes in Abraham. For he was yet in the loins of his...

    101, the priest of the Old Testament and the New Testament were all men. No matter how you try to twist it, this has not changed. If God wanted to give the office of the priesthood to a woman, He would have done so, but He did not. As I said, God chose only the sons of Aaron and Levi to the...

    I already explained this. To love God covers the first three commandments, to love neighbor covers the next seven commandments. What is actually new is the next sentence that Christ said. "To love neighbor as I have loved you." He showed us how to love. We are to love our neighbor as He...

    God wrote the laws in every man's heart.....the same laws that you can still find in the Old Testament. Instead of writing it on a stone tablet, He wrote in it in men's hearts. He shortened it to "love God and love your neighbor", but it's still the same. To love God fulfills the first three...

    God does not change, and Christ is the same today, yesterday and forever. It's man who likes change. Female pastors only exist in our time. They never existed in the first, second, third, or any other century except our time. I will follow the unchanging God. :) The OFFICE of the...

    The office of bishop and the office of deacon does exist, which is the reason why the oldest translation have it there. In addition, these offices were mentioned in historical documents by the Early Christians in the first and second century. Those who took the office of deacon were the ones...

    The Bride of Christ is actually the Church. The Church as a whole is viewed as female despite that her members consist of males and females. The reason the Church as a whole is viewed as female is because she is the Bride of Christ, who will marry Christ, the Bridegroom. And Christ is not a...

    KCKID, we don't practice killing homosexuality as well. Those rebellious sons who disobeyed their parents will not be in Heaven. That is what the Old Testament is really saying. It is not necessary to put them to death because they are already dead UNLESS they change their ways. Those who...
