That same remedy was denied by Servetus. God's punishment for All who deny him is eternal banishment. Those who condem Calvin forget how strict God is with unrepentant sinners. Just as critics of Calvin ignore the facts that Geneva called him to serve them and that he worked himself to death...

Love it. There is also the little matter of R3: 27 Where, then, is boasting? It is excluded. Because of what law? The law that requires works? No, because of the law that requires faith. 28 For we maintain that a person is justified by faith apart from the works of the law. 29 Or is God the...

There are only two groups of people in the world. Sinners and saved sinners.

only put food in a human animal trap. If you catch the mother cat you can take it to be spayed. In that way you'll stop the spread of feral cats and limit the harm they do to wild life.

Is that humans don't need to believe. Look around the world, use the cia web site it will show you that there are no atheistic countries, tribal groups etc etc. Atheism/agnostism are minority beliefs. Studies on children show that they naturaly believe in the supernatural.

Time started when God started it. As there was a begining to time there cannot be something before time started. Except for something outside of time and space when speaking from Gods view point it is possible to say before creation etc etc etc.

Please read your reply. The courts found him guilty ( as had numerous courts in other countries who also had condemned him to death.) Thje same courts did not listen to Calvin when he asked for mercy for him. Yet everyone blames Calvin.

So what, you are avoding answering the question in post 21. What is your excuse for not being a perfect human being?

And every state exceuted people for those reasons. So to accuse Calvin of exceuting people is inaccurate and also to apply double standards, expecrting him to live according to our morality.

agnostic literally A = to be without. gnostise = knowledge or to put it colloquially an 'ignoramus' insult aside the implication of saying 'I don't know if there is a God or not' is that one is active in searching to find God, or not. For most people however it is just a nicer word than atheist.

Quis custodiet ipsos custodes "Who'll watch the watchmen?" What you've discribed is already illegal so have more laws passed will make no difference. It needs a change in how people view the law and how the police and law enforcement view obeying the law. That will only come...

You and I and every human being has a responcibility to look out for the interests of thos around them. You see this in action when people leap into a river to save a total stranger. That impluse to care for those in distress shouls apply in all of us for all in need around us. Sadly it doesn't.

Just how many lost, sinners, pagan, gentile etc do you think haunt this forum?

Most churches in my experience either tape there services for members who can't make sunday services or nowadays put them on line. There are also online libaries of sermons from many famous men of God that are avalable to download. As for guidance if what you are thinking about doesn't cause...

Having outlined a problem what is the cause of this problem and what would you suggest is a way to start correcting it? I would suggest the problem is not the police or the authorities behind the police nor the goverment but something far wider reaching. The denial of God and of...
