One has to lie to deceive, last I checked, and Abram didn’t lie. But withholding the truth from those who don’t know it, is something God does all the time, is that deceiving? It’s not different then Abram withholding the truth from the Egyptians. And technically it wasn’t Abram’s fault they...

You know, it’s a shame that this subject gets gleaned so much over nothing. Men always want to make what is in their hand to do or posess, sacred, but what is truly sacred is supposed to posess them. The act of baptism by water is the outward acknowledgment of the new life in the Christian...

Anyways Madad21, God’s not a deceiver, but yet He lets anyone believe anything they want, about Him or His creation no matter how erroneous it maybe. Men think to have right and entitlements that God should show Himself to them, but He doesn’t, and be what they believe He ought to be. Even when...

It’s not about you Madad21, it’s about the subject at hand.

Nothing was said about some theology known as “dispensation” of which as you should see here as you post is a distraction from the truth of God’s church, not man’s church, God’s church. If you don’t see that the meaning of the word dispensation is the distribution and administration of a thing...

I can understand how you would see it that way, but if you are looking to split hairs then does it say any where were they asked if she was his wife? Where is that statement? Or did Abram anticipate that they would assume "this is his wife", and said as much? It can seem tricky, or deceptive...

You know webers_home it seems matter of fact, but there are many who teach, and there are many who believe that it was for the lack of faith. So it would seem beneficial to make it clear. You are most definitely correct and I might add the first one I have seen post that answer. Many go on...

A lot of so called Christians, especially those who teach, read a lot into these subjects. So, again: Was it the lack of faith when Abram received Hagar as wife to bear a inheritor, as Abram desired? And why did the Lord Abram's God care at all about the out come of Hagar's child? Also some...

Was it the lack of faith when Abram received Hagar as wife to bear a inheritor, as Abram desired? And why did the Lord Abram's God care at all about the out come of Hagar's child? Also some say that Abram lied when he and Sari went to Egypt, is that true?

This is a constant theological distraction focused on questioning of one’s faith in the promise of Christ and the fulfillment therein. Though many don’t see it as such, because there is no validation of any chosen theology in it. The solution to the problem is simply when the thief on the cross...

Isn’t it dispensation that was exercised by Christ in the distribution and administration of what was of the Father approved for the Son to give to the world? And didn’t Jesus set the Apostles to do the same by the power of the Holy Spirit? Your wrong, you are dead wrong. Maybe what isn’t...

Right I don’t know anything, I taught myself how to do computer programing when DOS 3.3 to 5 was the latest greatest and 4 sucked. And even managed to get paid real money for it until .net came out. Anyway don’t expect users to be so naive. Becoming indignant and quick to take offence because...

Hay I resemble that remark ;) Some things that you might find of interest floyd. I do believe the united nations referred to the new state of Israel as the Fig Tree state, when it was agreed to support the establishment of the nation state of Israel. Also I do believe during the same year of...

Say anything, do anything, be thy self, is the creed of the day. The power to want to be what you want. Heck you are suppose to know what you want or there is something wrong with you. In this day an age of such, how is it to be understood that one would seek what God wants? Consider King...

Again I can’t prove it, but if you notice, we are getting a considerable amount of loonytoon like postings, that seem to be mocking of a believer in nature, and the poster doesn’t really seem to believe anything they are saying.

Don’t waste your time Madad21. Some people are given cart blanche to get responses, and if they go to far they are allowed another account to continue, so the web admin doesn’t look bad. In other words some posters don’t have any real interest in subject matter of threads they just provoke...

Though there are discussions on when Pentecost was before Christ came, and what day of the week it would be. I do believe it was the Pharisees that had Israel count so that Pentecost would always be a Sunday. And from what day the count of seven weeks should be. The day that the Apostle, Peter...

Circumcision of the foreskin and crucifixion are not the same, nor does scripture in any way associate the two as the same. Crucifixion of Christ is associated to the lambs that are offered that are of the heard. As in Lamb of God, which is the covenant. Circumcision of the foreskin is a seal of...

People worship (honor) the created because they desire the created and fulfillment in the created. If they are born of God surely it is within them to seek spiritual fulfillment. Just because people call themselves Christians, doesn’t mean they are called. They see some sort of fulfillment in...

Needless to say you have a good point, but its what the listener values in their heart that they seek fulfillment in. And the truth is no one can escape it. Which is why the Lord God not only promised to write His laws in our hearts but for our sakes its necessary. Because what is in God’s heart...
