    Where do we go?

    I don't know what's so difficult to understand about this verse:Ecclesiastes 12:7Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it.All souls belong to God.Ezekiel 18:4Behold, all souls are mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the...

    Welcome to CB Kaitlin!CS Lewis is one very good writer - I say that as an English major. It's not often that I recommend anything outside of the Bible for people to read in terms of Christian literature, but I feel that Lewis really makes you think on some things that will ultimately send you...

    IS there a biblical rebuttal to the bogus dr. Laura letter floating around on the net

    Actually it comes down to you choosing to ignore the answer to play this silly little game. This game ends now, take your shrouded-in-innocence trolling elsewhere.

    The Best Way to Read the Bible?

    Falyne, my best advice is to start in your comfort zone or maybe even a little out of if you are able. However, avoid (at all costs) these new translations that like to paraphrase the Word. Translators make mistakes, but huge mistakes happen when someone tries to paraphrase what our Father has...

    !!!! Warning !!!!....What Many "Minsters" Don't Tell You!

    Why would God tell them to eat of all the trees of the Garden except for the Tree of good and evil, if He was talking about a sexual act? Fair enough and a good question. I would point to Matthew 7:16-20 that Jag was already steps ahead of me in talking about. God was simply saying, don't mess...

    World Leaders Support Fatah

    I had the pleasure of meeting this guy in the past. This cartoon could not have said it better.http://www.cagle.com/working/070614/arial.gif

    What should be the Christian's Response to the Homosexual?

    Antonio:I John 1:9If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.YHVH speaking in the Old Testament even:Isaiah 43:25-26I, even I, am he that blotteth out thy transgressions for mine own sake, and will not remember thy sins.

    IS there a biblical rebuttal to the bogus dr. Laura letter floating around on the net

    Antonio, at this point I'm beginning to feel like Kriss and I are broken records. With all due respect, I don't know what else there is to show you because I've shown you where the Bible clearly names laws, ordinances, and statutes in verses such as II Kings 17:34.I've stated now, on numerous...

    Jesus' Warning - Matt 24, Mark 13, Luke 21

    Your condescension for my posting is really bordering on annoying at this point. Yet again you either enjoy playing games or you demonstrate a complete lack of ability to properly interpret my posts when I am telling you what is going on about my own posts. You're talking to an English major, I...

    Jesus' Warning - Matt 24, Mark 13, Luke 21

    Denver: When did I say that the world would end--I said the exact opposite. I'm addressing your quote here: First of all, the disciples asked about the end of the age (aion) and not the end of the world (kosmos)! Silly word "you?" Are you kidding me? Those "silly" second person personal...

    Jesus' Warning - Matt 24, Mark 13, Luke 21

    Yes indeed! Context, context, context! But who is not understanding the context? First of all, the disciples asked about the end of the age (aion) and not the end of the world (kosmos)! The YOUs are not WE! I'm afraid it is you who doesn't have the grasp on the Greek word for age, aion. The...

    IS there a biblical rebuttal to the bogus dr. Laura letter floating around on the net

    Could you tell me where is it that Christ says He removed that ordinance--and by the way, where is animal sacrifce called an ordinace. I'm looking for these things but i'm not finding them. Colossians 2:14-23Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to...

    Adam's age ...

    So there are literal monsters with 7 heads and 10 horns? Or does that sysmbolize something? Why ever would you draw that conclusion from what I said?? You already know the interpretation given in the Bible of the beast. I'm simply going to say this question has already been answered by the Bible...

    Father, Sun and Holy Spirit

    Kriss's explanation hits at the center of it. I'll offer another one that may also give you a take on it. Consider the three as three distinct offices. I think that's probably the best analogy for modern times that I have seen. These offices make up the Godhead, the three being one.

    Adam's age ...

    Is it possible that the verse in question, Rev. 6:8, is a word picture or visualization of something that isn't in the future, but something that has occurred already?I find about 2/3 of Revelation to be related to the Old Testament so I was wondering if this is a "literal" or narrative"...

    Jesus' Warning - Matt 24, Mark 13, Luke 21

    Greetings, n2thelight! What is the context of Matthew 24, Mark 13, and Luke 21? What is the audience relevance? Jesus is not addressing us--He is speaking directly to His disciples standing right there with Him. All the things of which He warns them were to happen to THEM--their generation...

    Adam's age ...

    According to the Strong's (that I got from the Sheppards Chapel BTW) the word death here is not a proper name but simple, regular old death just like in other places of the Bible.#2288 thanatos - (prop. an adj. as a noun) death (lit. or fig.) I do not mean this to come off as stinging as it...

    Adam's age ...

    Denver, do you believe death came before sin or as a result of it? Genesis 2:17But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die. Romans 6:23For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal...

    IS there a biblical rebuttal to the bogus dr. Laura letter floating around on the net

    The LAW hasn't changed. I've never made that statement and never will because I know better. Documentation:Matthew 5:17Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one...
