Naw... It still doesn't make sense. A revelation is something that is revealed. Huh? I don't think you see my point. Scripture tells us what God said and did. It is not reasonable to separate God from the accounts of what he said and did. I recently read a biography on Thomas...

I am not on that other board. I am going by what is in this thread. So, if there is a back story... Ok. I am just responding to what I read. Again, I don't separate the two. The scripture tells us what God said and did. How is it possible to separate God from his actions and what he told...

Huh?

I really think the OP was just showing appreciation for the scripture. And, like what always happens here, it's evolved into an debate. First thing I am going to say (without apology) is that I do believe the Bible is the Word of God. If you do not believe that, no hard feelings, but I...

Couple thoughts... While this doesn't break any new or old testament rules, Jesus did say we should pray in our closets if we want them to be heard. While I don't believe this means a literal closet, it does mean to do it privately and not in Puplic. So right off the bat... It doesn't...

This is really close to what I was going to post. I was going to say, "God may change things, but he himself doesn't change".

What you are doing is picking your definition to fit your belief, and not the one that fits proper context. "Proclaimer" is just one definition, and it's not the proper one for this verse. I gave you a clue: he must be sent. If you look up the Strong's definition for sent, it showed he is an...

Then why don't you? Go ahead! Before you do, realize that the next verse asks (rhetorically), "how shall they preach except they be sent?"

Such is politics. Look, everyone likes to think of our founding fathers as great... Well... They were and we're not! Politics were just as brutal in 1795 as they are now. And the politicians just as despicable. And yes, I'm talking about Washington, Jefferson, Hamilton and to a much smaller...

Well it's not wrong... But I am not going to do it as a means of evangelism. If others so, fine.

I got my first and only tattoo when I was 25. I was told it was addictive, but for me it was not. I didn't become an active Christian until 33. It's old, faded and doesn't look as great at age 50. I don't regret it as it was a sign of my youth as a child and as a young adult. But it isn't...

Sorry Enoch111... We are like thinking on some of the things you say, though I suggest all politics are dirty business. But I like Aspen. He does seem to be liberal which is against my economic and political philosophy... But I judge him a fair man even if I disagree with his political and...

Pearl, something you said or perhaps the way you phrased thing triggered a thought. I am not disagreeing with what you said, but consider this: Genesis 2:2 KJV And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made...

Well, it hasn't happened so far. Finally the left wing media is asking questions. Liberal politicians and pundits are all saying the same thing:. "Yes, women should be heard and we support them. But Biden has dealt with the accusations.". It's hypocracy. Joe said it never happened and...

1. Saturday is the Sabbath day. On our calendar it is the 7th day of the week. Today, Orthodox Jews still honor that day as the Sabbath. They however, start it at Sunset on Friday. 2. Jesus and his disciples observed the Sabbath, though not without controversy amongst the Pharisees. Jesus...

It's not something I will debate too much, but I would put the Church starting when he called his first two disciples in John 1. Certainly at Pentecost it took a dramatic step, but I was wondering what you would disagree with me about John 1:37?

Is this a heavenly Kingdom or an earthly one?

Folks,. I sense this discussion for me has run its course. I intendaintend tofto makestatement and see if the discussion moves in a positive direction. Some people are saying we don't need the Bible or preachers ("preaching" is not part of the original topic; it was my inclusion. Those who...

Now you are just posting random verses that have nothing to do with the discussion...

Name calling? What name did I call you? Do you not know the reference to "dumb ass"? You seriously need to read the Bible! Furthermore, this coming from a man who has berated so many, claiming they aren't Christians and claiming they refuse to come to Christ. A man who continuously takes...
