yes, whatever's coming your way!

Ohhh, I'm surprised you would relinquish this opportunity Jay. Does it probe uncomfortably?

what would you say ...and why?

If we say the reality trumps the shadow, ie the NT trumps the OT, further questions arise, for instance, what do we do with the shadow? It is clearly still of value as these are the scriptures Jesus used.....so how does it then fit?

Did Jesus preach blood sacrifice?....I've haven't found it. He never even sent those he healed to the Temple except to get a 'certification' of clearance from the priests for the lepers.

A question that needs to be asked is, do we interpret the NT by the OT or the OT by the NT? ie, Do we interpret the reality by the shadow or the shadow by the reality. Which authority stands paramount? If that can be determined we might be well on the way to avoid the hotch-potch cobbling to...

Oh dear, did anyone have frogs for breakfast?

If God is real, then how did Noah’s Ark happen? God spoke to Noah telling him of a disaster about to unfold. In his desire to rescue whosoever will he instructed Noah to build a big boat and tell the people to get in. I guess boats weren't in vogue those days and vogue was important to them...

Why is it so hard for the rich to get into Heaven? They're not rich enough

When one is untouched by peoples struggles, irrespective of who they are, gender, ethnicity, culture, religion or one is selective based on narrow paradigms, one has denied Jesus. It is how we relate to others which is the determining factor of how we relate to God/ Jesus. A head trip doesn't...

Why the need to put people into categories? The next step after that is determining which category is right (according to ones own paradigm).....and so it continues to go. Why not see ALL people as hurting, crying and bleeding children caught in a web of dysfunction and deceit.

You know Ronald, this has got to be the stalest retort ever. Every religious person with a inflated self opinion uses it. They assume it gives them the edge.

why this comment?

You have repeated yourself multiple times re this but have not offered anything convincing.

Yes yes, I'm familiar that the Jews want to build another temple, so what? they may as well build another ark with jet fighters and missiles. You misunderstand the OT prophecies. Why? because the central point of the scripture has escaped you and therefore has hamstrung your understanding. You...
