I quoted many Scriptures in my case for omnipresence, showing that is in fact what Scripture teaches, but okay. God bless.

I'm fine with it and hope for the best for them in our nation. As for illegal immigration while I am very open to all coming here I know that would eventually harm our citizens (we are not at that point yet) so it should eventually be stopped, but for the ones coming across now I would assist...

Omnipresence is a necessary follow to Him being infinite and uncreated, for if He had any limit (such as not being in or present to all things) then He would be limited by that thing and finite, therefore not God. God's presence in all places does not contradict evil in the world or any of the...

Our part is to occupy until He comes (Lk 19:13), which not only applies to eschatological things but our moral life. Occupying in the works He has given us to walk in (Ep 2:10) until the Day-Star arises in our hearts (2Pe 1:19) which is Himself, transforming us into His likeness (2Co 3:18) and...

As is said: the Old is the New concealed and the New is the Old revealed.

Indeed a great mystery, I think this quote from St. Dionysius of Alexandria (200-265AD) helps shed light on it, you'd probably like it, he also makes the same point about the Father eternally beings Father as you did: "It has been already said that God is the Fountain of all good things: and...

I notice that you in fact provided no evidence for your blasphemous claim in all of that. Not surprised.

You can. It is important to discern spirits but some are certain. The main angel that people should be concerned with I think is their own guardian angel which all have since conception (which is the one I think you're mostly interacting with, since they are there). In my Church we are taught to...

I was helped in my conversion by believers, but I was a nominal one myself. I have never converted an unbeliever. Two main reasons jump out as to why it is not a waste of time: (1) God commands the Church to be evangelistic, (2) just because God is the ultimate cause of all things does not...

The discussion by it's nature can not get anywhere. The positions are can not be reconciled to one another and have entirely different worldviews behind them. The only "getting somewhere" in such a discussion is one person submitting to the position of another.

Never have you once in your life shown where the Trinitarian doctrine is inherently contradictory. If you have done this even once, even for a passing moment of thought, do so again.

I'll tell you a thing even more simple: a thing being real and a thing being a symbol are in no way contrary to one another. Jesus is real and Jesus is the Lamb of God. But another direct proof of this is Galatians 4: "For it is written that Abraham had two sons, one by the female slave and one...

So do you now no longer hold the position that this is a denial of the divinity of the Son or the Holy Spirit and instead hold that it neither proves nor disproves it?

The doctrine of the Trinity is not found anywhere in paganism, this is a blatant lie. Show me where any pagan spoke of the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, of the Father's Monarchy, of the Eternal Generation of the Son, of the Procession of the Holy Spirit from the Father through the Son. Where...

No, Christ saying no one is good but God does not exclude other things being good, it only indicates that the true source of goodness is God the Father who is the Principle without Principle of all, including the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Chiefly the proof that other things are good is when the...

It isn't a corruption it's a variant reading, moreover even without the reading the passage sense is that the Spirit is a good gift, and even without this passage as a whole one can simply quote Psalm 142:10 (143:10 in your Bible most likely) which says "good Spirit," so St. Bede's point remains...

It just rained last night and now is cloudy and damp this morning but far cooler now (90 down to 50). It helped get me up this morning the coolness, I like it.

On the contrary the Lord calls Himself God here and is raising the man's idea of Him to divinity. St. Bede and St. Theophylact say it best perhaps: Bede: "But by this one God, Who is good, we must not only understand the Father, but also the Son, who says, 'I am the good Shepherd;' (John 10:11)...

Define free will, for none of your claims about God's control and sovereignty are contrary to it rightly defined. I also am a divine causal determinist, so none of what you have said concerning this refutes me.

True, for "what has Christ to do with Belial," but God bless.
