    Hello

    I'm not sure how your topic was missed, but welcome to Christianity Board. You probably have more of an idea than you think as to what's holding you back. Send me a PM sometime if you'd like to talk about it.

    Temptation And Sin

    I have to agree here. Confusion - which is not a sign of God - sets in the moment words that are pretty straightforward suddenly become ambivalent. I don't really want to dive down into philosophy too deeply here, but think about it for a moment at a shallow level. Let us take something that...

    Christians Hate The Truth

    See, I find these two statements to be in conflict with one another right off the bat. Let's face it, anyone can claim that the Father speaks through them and I've seen a wide range of folks do this with conflicting viewpoints (someone must be wrong by definition, no?); anyone can claim that the...

    The True Messiah's Genealogy

    An answer has been readily and accessibly provided; unfortunately your choice to ignore it for the sheer purpose of arguing and most likely trolling is rather obvious. I must admit I have seen better. Topic closed.

    The True Messiah's Genealogy

    That's hardly a biological argument. :rolleyes:

    The True Messiah's Genealogy

    With all due respect, your argument is rather anachronistic in a sense and unpersuasive if you dig a bit. (Please do choose whether or not you'd like to argue biologically or legally, because your original argument indicated a legal one given that you spoke about Joseph not being the father. I'm...

    Jesus Christ Is God!

    I think this tone says it all; it always seems like a good move to ignore the other side's questions completely, but outside of your particular belief system (which you came here to promote anyway, correct?) this doesn't work. You've managed to bring in a creed which I never mentioned...

    The True Messiah's Genealogy

    A common mistake. Jesus was, legally speaking, the son of Joseph thereby satiating Hebrew law. If you want a Hebraic reference, Haggigah, Book 77, 4 will demonstrate this. The declaration, rightfully so, makes Joseph the son-in-law of Heli who was descended from David - meaning Jesus had the...

    Jesus Christ Is God!

    I'm still waiting for an answer as well. I've already given an answer, it's just you come with a preconceived notion otherwise. :) I'm not one to give an English lesson all of the time, but I'm not really sure how with the above verse (John 17:3) the word "and" somehow becomes mutually...

    Evangelical Body: Cancel 'burn A Quran' Day

    Agreed Paul. Just look at the negative attention - though I am very happy to see some positive statements in this thread. Look, I don't believe Islam nor anything associated with it. Whether you believe it a foundation or not, it does have violence associated with it, but how does this (numero...

    Jesus Christ Is God!

    Why ever would a son say this? Jesus said to him, "Have I been with you so long, and you still do not know me, Philip? Whoever has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, 'Show us the Father'? Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words that I say to you...

    Mystery, Babylon The Great

    With all due respect, that's all but a moot point when discussing virtually anything in the Bible. I think sometimes folks get a little too wrapped up in the post and forget that at least some assume that one picks up a Bible and reads for his or her own edification. Of course there's always...

    Introduction

    When things get rough, I always recall this verse: No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it...

    Hello From England!

    My wife and I work at the same location; her parents actually own a business together, so I can relate to that. It's a blessing! Welcome, and glad to have you to fellowship with us! :)

    Hi, My Name Is Ed J

    Welcome to the community Ed! We have a number of users that study with the KJV (or AKJV). It never hurts to go back to the original languages because they could communicate so many more meanings than our own, even without some of the caveats we are used to seeing! Look forward to hearing more...

    Christian Poets & Writers

    I don't want to begin with a negative thought, but posting a link is limited to the Webmaster forum, you're free to have them in the signature like you've done, though. No big deal! Welcome to Christianity Board! :)

    The 144,000 And Mount Zion

    I've cleaned this thread up, please stay on topic without the name-calling. Thanks.

    Jesus Return

    The moment I read your topic, I said to myself that it hearkens back to understanding the trinity. The answer is contained therein. Veteran did a bang up job of pointing out John 14:9. The Father makes appearances in most books of the Bible, but Christ is the sort of the liaison and human face...
