Galileo was charged with heresy for believing that the sun and not the earth is the centre of the universe. Strongly as a convicted heretic his only punishment was house arrest not execution. It should be remembered the the universities then, like today, taught a pagan science and the church...

As I quoted a passage from the op about evolution, yes I was talking about evolution. Darwin was devout! He identified as agnostic, did not attend church services with his family so if he was devout it wasn't to Christianity.

The new testament was written within the life time of the apostle, before 70 ad when Rome destroyed Jerusalem, its historic accuracy has been confirmed by many historians. In comparison the quantity was not written down until long after the actual listeners to mohamed had died, also one of the...

Something you do not pay for is free. If you talk to non Christians, particularly those with an interest in spirituality they will talk about ' being good enough ', of earning there salvation. So stressing that salvation is free, is a tactic, a way of gaining attention just as he'll fire...

How we give and what we give is between us and God. Yes our bank sees our giving, yes the treasurer also knows but that should be all. How do they proposed to quantify how God has blessed you. As the time frame is in one's lifetime who keeps the record of giving and who quantifies the...

Justice for all, for rich and poor, for the powerful and the weak, for those at the top, those in the middle and those at the bottom. When will all crimes be judged etc etc etc Only when we all stand before Jesus for his final judgement.

Jesus also said the world has hated me and it will also hate you. That is the context of counting the cost of following Jesus. Yes Christians willing do all those things you listed and far more, they do it not to earn their salvation or even to deserve a ' good and faithful servant '...

What makes you think you can heal anyone? If God grants you any spiritual gift you use it not how you want to but how God directs you to use it.

John 1:12 to all who received him, he gave the right to become children of God, born not of human will, but born of God. God is the creator of All and he cares fr All, but not All can claim to be part of his family. The lie that we are all children of God is one of the false comforts the the...

Nothing, what is there to like about a faith that 8s responsible for numerous genocides around the world, for justifing racism, abortion, euthanasia etc etc. Darwin rejected God, why do you want to copy him.

May I suggest you reread the post I linked to and understand the argument. The quantity says the bible is reliable, but the quantity contradicts the bible, therefore the quantity is not reliable. Let me turn this whole argument around, Would you believe arguments put forward by a Muslim that...

The point of being a Christian is not to have dreams realised, but to know ultimate reality and truth. I understand that not having a dream fulfilled hurts, but you are giving up far more than a dream. To reject God means giving up on All goodness, even if the devil gave you a gryphon in...

Ever watched a Red Bull soapbox race? There are lots of fancy go karts, running down a race track, the fastest and fascist wins. But some fall to bits, veer off the track or crash as soon as they are launched. Evolution is like these, an idea that does not work.

God is Faithfull and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. Memorise 1 John1:9

GOD is the ultimate reality and in knowing him through Jesus, we know reality and we know truth. This relationship is more important than dreams of mythical animals. Please re evaluate your relationship with God based on who Jesus is and what he has done. Gryphon's are amazing fantasy...

That does not give us the authority to punish the devil.

Please could you explain the relevance of your post to an argument that uses the quantum to validate scripture and in so doing invalidates the quran?

We will all stand before Jesus and our works, service etc will be judged. Some of us will get in by the skin of our teeth, others will gain recognition or even a crown. It will be Jesus who judges our work, not any theological college or forum.

We cannot accurately judge who is or is not a Christian. We work, worship and serve with others and just as the disciples went out in twos, one with Judas, so we serve sometimes with a Judas.
