    Did Jesus claim to be God?

    That's good. One way to resolve this is to turn it into a wager. See e.g., If you think that Mary is a perpetual virgin and wish to wager on it, I am taking wagers here

    Is Satan an angel?

    Other than the reality of the Godhead, existence is divided into two realms: vertical and horizontal. The horizontal realm is physical and measurable. Vertical is the rest. Angels are beings existing in the vertical realm. Satan is not a physical being. By these definitions, he is an angel...

    If you think that Noah's flood was global, then bet on it

    I assume P2 is 0. How many USD do you want to bet based on this weighting scheme/odds?

    Are there prophets today?

    I think so. There were prophets after the cross, Acts 11: John spoke of two future prophets in Revelation 11: How do we tell whether a person is a prophet or not? Deuteronomy 18: 1 Thessalonians 5: See also Your sons and daughters will prophesy.

    Is the story of Lazarus and the rich man literal?

    Do you know what a question mark is for? Have you not done the following: 1. making fun of people's questions instead of answering them, 2. making accusations instead of answers, 3. reading only the title and not the content of the OP when answering, 4. answering with a "no" and nothing...

    Hagar and the angel of the LORD

    Good question. In general, I don't think you can. Hebrews 13:2 Do not forget to show hospitality to strangers, for by so doing some people have shown hospitality to angels without knowing it.

    Hagar and the angel of the LORD

    Hagar ran away from Sarai in Genesis 16: Most versions translate malak Yahweh here as "the angel of the LORD". Brenton Septuagint Translation translated it as "an angel of the Lord". At this point, the angel spoke in first person authoritatively as if he was the LORD. The wording was similar...

    Why were the Israelites not circumcised in the wilderness?

    Genesis 34: Simeon and Levi took advantage of their weakness and successfully attacked the city. Centuries later, Joshua 3: Israelites crossed the Jordan into the enemies' territories. Joshua 5: These Israelites were not circumcised during the wilderness wondering. These were their days of...

    Is the story of Lazarus and the rich man literal?

    Why would I want to speak for you? In case you missed it, I was speaking against you. Have you not done the following: 1. making fun of people's questions instead of answering them, 2. making accusations instead of answers, 3. reading only the title and not the content of the OP when...

    Is the story of Lazarus and the rich man literal?

    I don't think @Taken understands the term claim. The sad thing about her is that she is a member of the staff whom we cannot put on ignore.

    Is the story of Lazarus and the rich man literal?

    So you have parked your brain when you entered this OP? In case you missed it, I started this OP with a logical and spiritual mind as usual. You need to stop debating in an OP by only reading the title. It is a bad habit for any human being, Christian or not. Further, as a staff member of this...

    Is the story of Lazarus and the rich man literal?

    Have you studied math? Do you know that all mathematics is based on First-Order Logic? Do you know what a scientific thought is? Have you tried to think of one? Is planet Earth flat? Do you know what Physics is? Do you know how doctors perform diagnosis? Have you seen one?

    Did Jesus claim to be God?

    If you cannot, then I can't continue this conversion. I prefer to debate people who can be more precise.
