    I can by distinguishing between two different ways to measure time.

    The Father forgives you iff you forgive others

    Let proposition P = you forgive people. F = The heavenly Father forgives you. Matthew 6: P → F ¬P → ¬F ⇒ F → P The two verses together mean that F ⟷ P. Therefore, the Father forgives you if and only if you forgive others.

    How likely was the first day a 24-hour period?

    Genesis 1: Darkness was first. Light was next. Darkness was followed by light. The usage of "night" here was related to the darkness in verse 2. The usage of "day" here was related to the creation of the light and not the sun. Here I define the first day as the time elapsed from Genesis 1:2...

    If perfect, why did Adam sin?

    No. I prefer to stick to the wording in the Bible.

    Did Adam and Eve have belly buttons?

    I think so because the end products of a miracle obey the usual laws of physics or follow the horizontal norms. Did Adam have nipples? Yes. Did the trees in the Garden of Eden have rings in their trunks? Yes. See Adam, Eve, and evolution.

    If perfect, why did Adam sin?

    Genesis 1: The Bible does not say that Adam was perfect [H7760].

    Christians get tattoos?

    Leviticus 19: Does it apply to Christians today? There is no NT command against it and it isn't a morality issue. I think it is a freedom we have. If you are thinking of having one, consider Size: I think smaller is better than bigger. Content: Would your Christian circle of friends be...

    Should a Christian fear God?

    Yes, Proverbs 9: Luke 12: Do not fear men, demons, or Satan. Fear God with respect to His authority. This is a healthy fear. But wait, Jesus continues: As Christians, don't be afraid of any circumstances. The Almighty God is in control. 1 John 4: There are healthy and unhealthy fears. As...

    Dietary laws from Adam to the apostles

    My definition of the Kingdom of God is narrower. Pagans do not have the Kingdom of God in them.

    The kingdom of God is in the MIDST of you

    Matthew 23: inside ἐντὸς (entos) Adverb Strong's 1787: Within, inside, the inside. From en; inside. Surprisingly, this adverb appears only twice in the Bible. Outside of the Bible, ἐντός appears frequently (BDAG). New King James Version, Luke 17: The kingdom of God is inside each one of us...

    Can we lose our salvation?

    Right. Do you have the Paraclete dwelling in you?

    Can we lose our salvation?

    The English word "save" or "salvation" is polysemantic. It has at least the following meanings: It could mean being physically rescued at a point in time situation (Exodus 14:13, H3444, יְשׁוּעָה yeshuah). In this case, you may need to be rescued again. You can be rescued or saved multiple...

    Call NO ONE your father on earth, for you have one Father

    But then, Paul said in Acts 22: Did Paul contradict Jesus? No, Paul was using the term in a biological and genetic-relational sense, not as a religious title. Let's see the context of Jesus' speech, Matthew 23: It was about the scribes and Pharisees. They were religious leaders. That's the...

    Dietary laws from Adam to the apostles

    Right. Are there pagans in the Kingdom of God?

    Christian freedoms

    The Bible clearly forbids and permits certain behaviors. In some situations, it is up to the individual believer. Romans 14: 1 John 3: Let the Paraclete teach your conscience.
