Can you connect what I wrote and your conclusion logically, step by step? This is the 2nd time I have asked. I prefer to debate with people who can provide logical steps.

Yes. What about you?

God wrote the Ten Commandments on tablets of stone. We don't have them now. Jesus spent his time proclaiming the gospel, healing the sick, performing miracles, and interacting with people in real-time. In the end, he died on the cross. He was a man of action. Jesus cried out and said in John...

Thanks for sharing. Can you quote my words and contradict them?

Thanks for the reference. This is how to do referencing in a scholarly manner: Display and indent the quoted text. Selectively bold the relevant keywords that are important to your point. There is no need to bold the entire sentence. Have a laser-sharp focus. Be concise and precise to the...

Today, we have Christians who teach hyper-grace: The idea is not new. Back in the days of Paul, Romans 3: Romans 6: Jude 4: Repenting is not a one-time event.

After the resurrection, you will put out 9 units of your heavenly treasure to a money pool. I will put out 2 units. We will ask David which proposition is closer to the truth. Winner takes all. Agree?

What is a proposition?

Jesus ate with sinners in Luke 5: On the other hand, 1 Corinthians 5: Paul talked about people who claimed to be Christians and were unrepentant of their sins. It is okay to eat with sinners before they become believers, but it is not okay to eat with habitual sinners who claim to be...

I prefer to use probabilities. See If you think that David was angry at the LORD when he killed Uzzah and wish to wager on it,

I am taking wagers here. This OP is NOT about whether David was angry at the LORD when he killed Uzzah. I'm assuming you think he was. This post focuses on wagering on what you believe. Let proposition P1 = David was angry at the LORD when he killed Uzzah. P2 = David was angry but not at the...

Do you know of any scholar who interprets it the way you do?

Good question. See David was ANGRY because the LORD had broken out against Uzzah and follow up there.

David tried to bring the ark of God from Baale-judah to Jerusalem in 2 Samuel 6: Everyone was in a happy mood. Was David angry with God? Ellicott did not think so: Similarly Barnes: Benson also: Keil and Delitzsch: I don't know of any commentaries saying David was angry at God.

Jonah warned the Ninevites. They repented. God decided not to punish them. (Jonah 3) Jonah 4: Jonah was a man with extreme emotions. He was angry because God had mercy on the Ninevites. Was Jonah angry at God? I don't think so. The next thing he did was to pray to God: Jonah contrasted his...

After the high priest put on his robe, he put on his ephod. This was an apron-like garment. Ex 28: Only the ruling high priest wore complete outfits with the golden ephod. Who wore the ephod? Exodus 28: Only the ruling high priest wore the complete set of outfits with the golden ephod...

Let proposition P1 = When a true believer dies, he will be with God as a sentient being right away before his bodily resurrection. True?

Is life meant to be hard because it's not heaven? Right, Jesus says in John 16: This life is a testing place for everyone. Does God want us to enjoy our lives? Not in the worldly sense, but yes, we can enjoy our lives in the godly sense. Joy is associated with holiness in Nehemiah 8...

Yes, Acts 17: My guess is that Adam and Eve started their lives 15,000 years ago. Adam's genome contained the potential variations of all the human features that we observe today. God destroyed all men except Noah's family, Genesis 8: Now, these eight people constituted the Homosapien gene...
