    Are mathematical equations, and scientific observations pointing to the kingdom?

    My inital reaction was Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat. It to some extent still is. I haven't heard anything like this, so will ferret around to find something. My fith or sixth reaction is to repeat that Maths etc are an outworking of the reasonableness of God. That science has to either accept that...

    Atheists in the pulpit; an oxymoron or an improvement?

    Something we can agree on. Christianity is not about looking good while doing good, but about what one believes about Jesus and then does as an act of love for Jesus.

    The Legal Cross

    We do not fully realise just how much love and grace God has lavished upon us that we might have a relationship with him. So many think that they 'must' do this or that in order to be saved.

    Signs

    The most amazing sign,wonder, miracle etc is when a sinner accepts Jesus as his saviour and his/her life changes as they seek to live in obedience to Jesus. It is this that needs to be broadcast.

    The Gospel of John and the revelation of John the divine.

    Jesus has already come from Heaven and having achieved All he set out to do, having finished the work of salvation he returned to heaven and one day will return to judge all people. There is no need for us to raise up or bring down anything. There is a need for us to show our Love for Jesus...

    The blessing of God

    Well I agree that God's blessing is not silver or Gold, or fame. I would say that as Christians we have work to do to show our love for Jesus and our obedience. The only people I know who teach that Jesus is not God are the JWs and christadelpians. Christians teach that Jesus is the Son of...

    Jesus as a thief

    That he was a prisoner is not in dispute. What is being questioned is whether he was actually put into a prison. What time was there between being arrested, taken before the council, being beaten, taken to pilate, taked to Herod and back to the council and to pilate. All this in one night. When...

    Jesus as a thief

    Jesus voluntarily limited himself when he became a man. That cannot be called a prison. He voluntarily submitted to death, as he said 'I have authority to lay down my life and to take it up again.' It is a mistake to think that we can imprison the Lord of Creation. The only ones being...

    Our Salvation

    Yes the ancient world believed that the physical world was corrupt and that only the Spiritual world was pure. That is partly why the athianians rejected Pauls preaching when he taught them about Jesus's physical resurrection. So what you believe is a pagan idea you have added to Christianity...

    Can one imagine what doesn't exist?

    Except where it makes its self know by interacting with this universe, as can be seen in Jesus.

    A biological resurrection, or a high tech resurrection at our fingertips.

    Cells store information and only use it to make repairs or to reproduce. Any calculations a cell does is controlled by its genetic information The mind invents new information, apreatiates beauty etc.

    Biblical Evidence God Doesn't Exist: using logic rather than belief.

    I start with an assumption that there is something and that that something has made himself know through the bible. I haven't tried to define God. Whether my reasoning is faulty or not one cannot just assume that there is logic. There has to be a reason for it. Either that reason is God or...

    Jesus as a thief

    How does the act of a mortal man imprision the Lord of Creation? The only being I am aware that is imprisoned is satan.

    Biblical Evidence God Doesn't Exist: using logic rather than belief.

    "Why would I need to prove God's existence in order to use logic?" You don't have to prove God's existence, but if you have no other explanation for logic your argument is over as God is the reason for logic so in using it without an alternative explanation you accept that there is a God. "The...

    A biological resurrection, or a high tech resurrection at our fingertips.

    The genetic information in each cell is not te ame as the process our braind use when controlling our bodies or thinking.

    Can one imagine what doesn't exist?

    The supernatural is anything but natural. It is what cannot be measured or examined by science.

    Atheists in the pulpit; an oxymoron or an improvement?

    Jesus talked about the 'faith' of the centurion and to the faith of the foriegn woman and of the faith of those who believed in him. That is still the difference between a Christian and an atheist, pagan etc.

    Jesus as a thief

    In Rev 3:3 Jesus said he would come like a thief, that they would not expect him, it is a warning to change. It is not wtitten that Jesus was put in prison before his crucifition. The passage you are quoting is from the parable of the sheep and goats. Jesus said when ever you visted someone...

    A biological resurrection, or a high tech resurrection at our fingertips.

    This has the merit of being a new idea, at least new to me. So our identity, our selves is not some outworking of the mind, but is the biological information contained in each cell. Have you been reading herberts Dune series where genetic information also retains the memories of ancestors...
