There's nothing wrong with being so "narrow minded" about the Bible as the Word of God, Mustafaa. If you don't have that faith, and you are Christian, I have to say that you've done nothing more than make up a religion and god to go along with - anyone can do that, modern religions prove it. If...

But you don't have to choose, that's not a concern. I have to say, if you don't know the old then it becomes difficult to discern the new. Phrases such as "Thou shalt not..." gets about as simple as you can get.

Ecclesiastes 12:6-7Or ever the silver cord be loosed, or the golden bowl be broken, or the pitcher be broken at the fountain, or the wheel broken at the cistern. Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it. When this old body dies, it's...

I'd have to disagree, you can't just cast off one. You need 'em both because they compliment each other.

When you read the Bible, not just the NT.

So why won't they release the other images from the other cameras? Why does it matter? They released the shot, it didn't satiate the critics of the whole thing. Some people choose to believe in a conspiracy so let them, but I for one don't because there is a line. This NWO is forming out of...

You'd be suprised, I'd even point to the oral tradition of Islam. In a society where books weren't an option, people knew this stuff by heart. You can make the argument that things may have changed, but that's a personal matter and a choice I cannot influence. As a child of God one must choose...

I've seen this one before. It's a lot of random, unverifiable quotes from non-experts. People talk of not seeing wreckage who have nothing to do with boeing planes and have never seen a planecrash in their lives. The images it shows when it tries to say there would be wreckage are all shots of...

It is almost scary...almost. I was in a class discussing some of the works of a fella by the name of Spinoza who is a noted philosopher. We were discussing, in particular, the work of his that advocated "religious toleration." In a nutshell, he advocated a universal church forced upon everyone...

Think about Elijah and the chariot to give a common example. If there was no place to go after this life, where did Elijah go? Ecclesiastes 12:7Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it. The spirit here implies the obvious - forgive me...

Actually, the ending of Revelation is "Amen." This is one remarkable word because even in the translation of the word to the various languages: Latin, German, Italian, English, Swedish, Dutch, French and so forth holds the same in all these very diverse languages - it's always Amen. Even the...

I've understood how any sin is equally bad, but how exactly is shaving a sin? The connotations and surrounding verses generally hint at it, but where shaving is considered a sin, it is done because this was typically a ritual shaving in a certain manner. For example, Canaanite priest shaved...

That's the usual recipe for nonsense. 1 Looney Bird from some group that no one has ever heard about.1 Overzealous newspaper trying to find somebody to actually read.1 Researcher who looks up US military installations on the US military website to find out what they have there. Combine it with...

The dream bares the classic mark of the work of the old enemy. As Kendal said, most of it is agreeable to a degree, but it's that last little quirk where the Word has been changed. There is no so called "pretribulational rapture" and one part of the dream in particular reminds me of a verse...

Mr_save, no one here is a racist, but that doesn't mean every Joe who wants to can come on here and attempt to force his/her religion on the members. This is a Christian forum, not a forum to discuss the merits of Islam. I'd appreciate it if you respect that and us.

Welcome olie, and congratulations!

Over 10 years ago, Robert Morey wrote about the origins of Allah and Islam. His was was "discredited" by those who had an agenda against the idea for the obvious reasons. It's funny how shoddy work is branded "higher criticism" of the Bible but if it dares to explain Islam...well, you know how...

Taking it back to Greek, the word used for book is biblos. So there is a good hint as to the meaning. That's not nearly the only occurence: Psalms 12:5-7The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. Thou shalt keep them, O LORD, thou shalt...

You point to Colossians 2:9 as a Scripture that supports the trinity. But, Liddell and Scott’s Greek-English Lexicon defines the Greek word used there, the·o´tes, in basically the same way it does thei·o´tes as at Romans 1:20, as meaning “divinity, divine nature.” (P. 792) The Syriac Peshitta...
