Not what I said. I said, choosing to be celibate is one thing, but forbidding them any other choice (ie. forbidding marriage, by demanding they be celibate) is a doctrine of Devils. And those aren't my words. Those are God's. (1 Timonthy 4:1-3).

The Sabbath was made for man, not just for The Jew.

Choosing celibacy is one thing, but forbidding themany other choice but celibacy, is a doctrine of devils.

Timothy 3:16 is referring to Christ, and not the Father. As for John 14:9, maybe this will help: John 17:6 I have manifested thy name unto the men which thou gavest me out of the world: thine they were, and thou gavest them me; and they have kept thy word. Okay, so how does this harmonize...

Let me get this straight. While you're defending traditional marriage (I do as well), you use the verse that states bishops should have a wife.The verse even seems to imply having children; After all if you cannot rule your own house well, how in the world do you expect to take care of God's...

Selene, Yes, Adam's transgression was disobediance - so was every other person's sin. Adam's transgression was that he blatantly ate from the tree of knowledge. No one else did that. Only Adam, so it's not possible for them to sin the same way Adam did, as they were kicked out the Garden. 3:23...

Selene, You didn't even finish the verse. Romans 5:14 Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam’s transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come. This is not saying they did not sin, it says they did not sin after...

Of course Jesus was expanding the definition of adultery. But, did he do so arbitrarily, or was there a reason for what He said? Why was it sin to put away your wife, and marry another, if you supposedly have a "bill of divorcement". 1 Corinthians 7:10-11 And unto the married I command, yet...

The dogma of the Trinity The Trinity is the term employed to signify the central doctrine of the Christian religion — the truth that in the unity of the Godhead there are Three Persons, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, these Three Persons being truly distinct one from another. Thus...

I see what you're trying to say now, but I want you to think of something. When a lamb was being sacrificed, did it have different flesh than all the other sheep? No, right? The only different was, that lamb was completely perfect, despite having the same exact flesh as all the other lambs. 1...

Churches have government 501c3 tax exempt status, making them official government agencies. The government wont shut you down unless you're preaching against what they tell you you can preach. So, while the people are in the pews listening to their pastors, the government is telling your pastor...

First, I know nothing of this Young's Literal translation. If it's anything like these newer translations, I do not trust it. Jesus wasn't in bondage to sin. You have to actually sin, to be in bondage to sin. Did Jesus sin? No. Thus, he was never in bondage. Have you and I sinned? Yes. We were...

Yes, but I mean now. As Peter is long gone.

Trekson, the two commandments are explained in Romans 13:8-10 by Paul. Romans 13:8-10 Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law. For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false...

Amen. I've never seen Colossians 4:6 in that light before. Proverbs 14:17 He that is soon angry dealeth foolishly: and a man of wicked devices is hated. Proverbs 14:29 He that is slow to wrath is of great understanding: but he that is hasty of spirit exalteth folly.

Amen. Romans 1:26:27 - For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that...

May I ask you something dear one? How is it possible that Peter is looking after the flock, right now?

Deuteronomy 21:15-17 is not God making provision for having many wives. I have not explained away anything, but showed how God told them how to handle a situation. Much like God has told them how to handle many situations. Was our God making provision for murdering someone outside the camp...

Selene, I posted scriptures for you, to see the very plain text. Everyone in the human family has sinned, except the Saviour. You can re-read the verses to clarify that fact. Mary indeed claims she has sinned, by rejoicing in her Saviour. Yes, the Roman Church does contradict the Bible. "Sin...

Just something I've noticed. We may all have this issue sometimes, or stuggle with it like I have. When someone gives you an answer, don't get upset, no matter how outrageous it may seem to you. James 1:20 For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God. The other person may...
