Your quote shows how silly your accusation is. Calvin was not a member of the council who condemned Servitus to death. He wanted a more merciful method.

A useful list of verses what would be far more useful would be your comments on them. Example 1john5:21 what is an idol? Is it only a statue or picture or is it also an idea or mental 8mage or a habit of doing something that keeps one away from God.

Yes there are major doctrines that are indisputable, there are secondary issues that we can agree to disagree on and there are false teachings which we should not promote. The creeds etc are a tool to help us do this, but as behold says go to the primary source of our doctrine and theology.

And where are they going to find a good teacher? God trained Moses through his Egyptian education and 40 years as a Shepherd in the desert. The prophets had an education and life before being called. Today most people looking to go into Christian service are young, barely out of there...

And when life kicks one in the teeth and stamps on one's gingers it is very hard to trust God. It can take a deliberate act of will to trust God in one's pain.

You are just repeating yourself. Spend much time on Christian forums and you will encounter many Christians asking questions about what is sin, can they do this etc etc. They are ignorant of the 10 commandments and ignorant of the Spirits leading. YES the spirit leads and teaches us, often as...

I don't dispute that, I merely state that any Christian who thinks God is calling them to service should test it by getting involved in service. I agree that Christians should not just go to theological coll5, but rather go on the recommendation of their church or a missionary society that is...

Here we go the ritual of abusing Calvin. I wonder how many people realise that through out Europe at that time to be a heretic was equivalent to treason and was punishable by death. Who excited Sevetus, the council of Geneva, at that time Calvin was not a member of. Sevetus was denounced as...

What you've listed is that any person God is going to call is already moving. They already serve in their local church, they have abilities and skills and if in a God serving church those skills will be recognised and opertunities given to use and grow them.

Very easy to say and oh so difficult to do. You would be of some practical use had you talked about the difficulty of trusting in God durring those gut clenching, stomach churning times when one's world has collapsed and all one sees is difficulty and pain. It takes real courage, real faith...

The bible is so very clear. Sex is between a husband married to his wife. All other sexual relationships are totally wrong. There is no negotiation, no exception, no wriggle room to this. If Christians cannot understand the simple Bible commands and permit sexual a use of children or of...

Or a willingness to take offence at any and every comment. This lady posted bible verses she was not being aggressive yet ended up in court. What hhappen was actually persecution.

Toast with marmite. ( veg items for those poor soul living upside down )

It is only a poor argument if one can show that the Christian explanation is reasonable and that they have no grounds to base their judgement of what ' good and evil ' is.

Are you really telling God that the Saviour he sent has been born? Don't you think, as God sent his Son to die in our place, that he knows.

The problem of evil is a powerful argument, one that is a double edged sword in that while it is a challenge for Christians it is also a challenging problem for the atheist. What standard of morality is being used to determine ' evil ' ? If ' evil ' exists then ' good ' also has to exist. What...

As Jesus is God the Son and as a Christian believes/trusts in what Jesus has done, then yes belief in God is essential to be a Christian.

Please show where my post is incorrect? Please also supply the bible verse that say the law is not there for our guidance? As you are well aware the Spirit will not instruct you to disobey the ten commandments, any 'spiritual guidance' telling anyone that is not from God.

Foxes are intelligent, adaptable wild animals. They have learnt that scavenging for human waste food is far easier than having to actively hunt, as a result they live in far denser concentrations in uk cities then they would in the countryside. As our domestic food waste is put in plastic...

God may bless someone with great wealth, he may also bless them with financial poverty. Roman2 8:28 All things work together for the good of those who are called by his name. Do you believe it?
