What difference does it make if there was no man named Adam? Genesis starts with: IN THE BEGINNING GOD CREATED... THIS is what is important. There was a first man - I'm not too sure his name was Adam...which means from the earth/dirt. Maybe this means that he was just another creation of...

Isn't it interesting that what you posted above is true in each case even of today. John baptized for the forgiveness of sin. Jesus baptized for the forgiveness of sin. Acts 2:38, Acts 22:16 Isaiah had his sins atoned for --- just as we all do. Jesus said He was one with God. Are we one with...

We ARE discussing Acts 6. I think that if a thought comes up we could post it. But I'm new here but I'm sure Carl Emerson sees that we're posting.

Hi MatthewG You confuse me! Sometimes you write such spiritual stuff and sometimes you sound a little confused-not in a bad way. When the NT speaks about overcoming the world, I believe it means the world paradigm - or the view that we have of the world. The way we see it and how we think it...

Well said Reggie All your points are very good and valid points. It's a joke....treating black people like they're fools - as the Dems usually do. I mean, how stupid do they think people are? And you think Karma Cameleon doesn't know that she can't ever accomplish this reparation? This is why...

I just posted to you about the Adamic Covenant. As I stated, a person only needs to know that Covenant to know that a blood sacrifice is the seal of that covenant. It could be that @Aunty Jane never studied the covenants or that she might be a JW and they have a completely different...

Agreed. Except I'm used to calling it THE SEAL of the §Covenant. Every covenant has one. We're talking about the Adamic Covenant which was unconditional. THE SIGN was the two angels with the flaming sword. THE SEAL was the shedding of blood - an animal sacrifice.

@Aunty Jane 2 of 2 Jesus didn't have an earthly mother? Then how was He born excactly? I agree with the above.... but I also know that Jesus had a real mother. The entire bible is not allegory or metaphor, etc. I doubt anyone reading along would agree to your explanation of who the woman...

So who do you think Protestantism would describe as the woman? Who are the following persons?: WAR BETWEEN YOU AND THE WOMAN HE'LL wound YOUR head.... Who is the offspring of the woman? Certainly it means Jesus. And who is the woman that gave birth to our Lord? This is nonsense- pure and...

We must be cleansed to be set aside for service to God. Our old man certainly cannot give service to God.... he may be able to give service to other men- but not to God. When we serve God, whatever we do, we do for God. Colossians 3:23-24 23Whatever you do, do your work heartily, as for the...

Exactly! Any harmful situation is certainly the doing of the evil one. And most persons are followers of him instead of God, so they perpetrate harm on others and, most probably, without even realizing what they're doing. I do think that we are very sensitive to evil and this makes us be able...

Hey Marks.... How about when you think you're doing something for God and you get a lot of obstacles thrown in your way? By persons that are supposed to be on the same team as you? I teach children our faith (thus the avatar) and it's so satisfying to do this.... but putting up with the nonsense...

From WE ARE THE PEOPLE by Martin Garrix 2020 UEFA theme song sung by Bono. From a broken place MatthewG... When we have a deep trouble something that could not be fixed and yet we receive God's grace, love and help to carry on. And our faith is made stronger because we know that God is there...

Thanks for 2 Thess 1:7-10 ! Right....the idea of obeying is throughout the NT. Those that depend ONLY on grace and NOT on obedience are sorely wrong. Jesus said we are to learn from Him and obey Him if we want to be His friends. (John). NOWHERE in the NT did Jesus ever state that we are only to...

You know Amadeus, The Apostles and those just following the resurrection of Jesus were very special people in my opinion. As were all those martyrs that went to their death because they refused to renounce their Savior and pledge allegiance to Caesar. I don't claim to think I'd be willing to...

Agreed. But sometimes it sure is difficult to tell !

What ratified the Covenant? And are you talking about the Edenic or the Adamic Covenant?

Apparently SS you have something in mind. Here's my thinking...based on life in general.... The tree was placed in the center of the Garden so that it could be visible and accessable. If it was hidden away somewhere, Adam may never have found it - or, at the very least, it would have been out...

This is funny Aunty Jane First you quote from a Catholic Dictionary,,,, to explain something that happened in the Garden. Then you proclaim that you accept nothing the CC teaches. ALMOST EVERYTHING the CC teaches is biblical except for some recent dogma. In case you didn't know... ALL...

Hi A, Great post! The reason I like it a lot is because we Christians need to stop writing posts that sound like it's OK to sin because somehow Christ will make up for it. This is not what the NT teaches. The NT teaches that we are to obey God,,,, at least to the best of our ability - and He...
