The double standard here is just so ridiculous. Is anyone accusing you of boasting if you say you don't murder, sleep around, rob banks, dishonor your parents, etc.? Do you avoid these things? If so, then you must be a legalist and an idolater, right? Give me a break. .

I often find myself drafting up long rebuttals of some of these heaping bowls of postmodern word salad and then, ultimately, I just can't bear to post them because it is the obvious literal act of the symbolic casting of pearls before swine which, of course, cannot be invoked without great...

What I THINK is if you move #3 to the top it reads almost like a poem. Or, better yet, a David Letterman Top Ten List (link). ("And if that weren't enough and, by gosh, dontcha think it outta be... Wake the kids; phone the neighbors: 'Stupid Pet Tricks,' ladies and gentlemen.") In any case...

What's the hold up? ;) :hearteyes: .

That was kind of a goof but I just didn't get around to fixing it. Eating these things on a regular basis could literally change a person's life. :hearteyes: .

Well then, the Bible writers aren't following your rules very well. .

I'd really like to oblige, but I'm not here to participate in exercises of pigeonholing and curiosity. :hearteyes: .

Speaking of "mythical pontificating"... .

These things are all just subsets of selfishness, and EVERYBODY is born selfish. Today's "reputable" Protestant historians are morally cowardiced ecumenists. Today's true Protestant historians are not anti-Catholic at all—they're simply anti-Catholicism. Your post history indicates your...

Let the record show that no one has yet produced the evidence for which I have repeatedly asked that either the doctrine of the Ten Commandments being merely a subset of the law of Moses or of Hebrews 4:9-11 being the New Covenant fulfillment/replacement of the 4th commandment was taught or...

The standard is higher than the standard keeper and, as with all the commandments, all have fallen short but Christ is our Substitute and Surety. I will admit to falling short on all Ten, and the Two Great. :hearteyes: .

To your credit, you seem to be listening and that's truly commendable in the setting we have here but, unfortunately when it comes to articulating your position you seem to be trying very hard to avoid double talk without actually managing to do so. There's an awful lot of distinction without...

Which is precisely why postmodern, Sabbath-objecting, armchair theologians do, in fact, give it a second thought. Of course, you're absolutely correct, which is why I and other Sabbath-keepers don't teach the Ten Commandments as a means of justification, either. Why this is escaping your and...

I've mentored countless new believers and, to my my knowledge, have never lost a single person to this issue. Some are more technical-minded (like myself—who had little or no mentoring) and are more difficult to reassure but, in the end, the Spirit is willing, even where the flesh is weak. ;)...

Nice work if you can get it, but it might be just a bit above your pay grade. You certainly don't. I'm no enforcer of any kind. But your objection arises from the fact that you know you can't produce any such evidence, so all you can appeal to is your twisted interpretations of Pauline...

I got lotta mo! .

Here's Bernie Casey in a low-budget flick I saw late one Saturday night called "Gargoyles."

I take it all back—you're no fun at all. :) .

Christ is The Executive/Legislator/Judge—not the law. A child could understand it. .

Subset... And so your insistence just cancels out the Bible, is that it? Thing is, this is nonsense, and before the Internet, virtually no one believed it—no one. Period. It's postmodern, neo-New Covenant, antinomianist, smoke-filled coffeehouse dung. But if you'd like to produce a pre-1990...
