Very interesting. First John Boswell was a brilliant man and homosexual. He died of AIDS at the age of 47 (So much for the claim that homosexuality does not affect you adversely). He received two awards for his book from homosexual organisations. Whilst he was a devout Catholic, he opposed the...

There is no mention of the NT Church meeting on Sundays, particularly the Jerusalem Church as they were all Jews, who worked on Sunday. Their day of rest was the Sabbath (Sunset Friday to Sunset Saturday). The change in lifestyle comes when they have surrendered their life to Christ, not...

What higher office are you talking about?

And I want to see the word "venial" in the bible. 1Jn 5:7 For there are three that bear testimony in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit, and these three are one. And I want to see the word "venial" in any verse in the bible.

The Sabbath and all that goes with it is one of those topics that has been moulded into our way of thinking to conform to a cultural idea. That most people have Sunday off work so that is when we meet. But it falls down badly today because we have a 24/7 culture now so that means we could be...

Its like talking to brick wall. I am asking because you haven't answered my question and the reason you haven't answered it is because you can't. But I can find the Trinity in the bible. In fact it is as plain as day so I have many legs to stand on as opposed to the idea of venial sin which is...

A very good point Rex. Not only the Roman Church which has made an art form out of catholic (levitical) law, the evangelical church does the same to some degree as in you have to do this or do that or be this or be that if you want to be a member of this church. Before I retired I was teaching...

Oh dear Selena, what is wrong with you? I know what you told me about venial sin and I know what I said about the word not appearing in the verse you quoted. Until you can, you do not have a leg to stand on. Saying someone called it venial sin is like someone saying my Toyota is a second rate...

No you didn't as the verse you gave does not contain the word "venial." You are stubborn Selena. Let me put it another way. 20 years ago you would not have seen the words "cruise control" in any car advertising for the simple reason it did not exist. The word Bible was not mentioned because it...

Thankyou Selena for that explanation but that is not what I asked for. What I wanted to know where "venial sin" is spoken of in the New Testament. In other words, what verses talk about "venial sin" and that doesn't mean what man thinks is venial sin. John 5 v 24; John 8 v 31; Hebrews 6 v 1; 2...

I SAID; I am not aware of any scripture that says if you tell the truth you are being judgmental. I do know that if you know the truth, it will set you free. Vale of Tears said: It really is one of the most misquoted scriptures in the Bible, particularly by those who aren't even Christian to...

You might like to consider that when God created a helpmeet for Adam, he went on to say that a man will leave his mother and father and cleave to his wife and they shall become one flesh. First, a man leaves his mother and father. Second he cleaves to his wife and that is important as I feel...

Sad to say, you are the one that is misquoting the scripture so lets look at it. Joh 8:31 Then Jesus said to the Jews who had believed in Him, If you continue in My Word, you are truly My disciples. John 8:32 And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free. Jesus was...

I am not aware of any scripture that says if you tell the truth you are being judgmental. I do know that if you know the truth, it will set you free.

I don't want to be unnecessarily contentious, but we need to put things in perspective. Lets say you are kneeling in prayer at church and someone comes along and bangs you on the head. You ignore the person and continue praying because that is more important, so he bangs you on the head again...

My experience and that of others that work in the ministries to homosexuals that we have been involved in know that it is not useless as a practical matter. Dialoguing with a person on the basis that they are a person, not a label is not dismissive and supercilious. You seem to be saying the...

One thing I teach in response to this question is to keep your spiritual antenna up. This means in the course of conversation people often give you a signal that can open the door for you to say something. For example, someone might be talking about a particular health problem they have. If...

Ignorance Rex, ignorance. I am not the most capable of internet users so if you can tell me how to get the posters ID in the quote I would be most appreciative. 1. The purpose of government is to govern for the benefit of society, not a handful of people that have got a bee in their bonnet...

Once again but sorry you are wrong. The programmes I watch are anything by David Attenborough and various other naturalists and as I said, in most cases, and please note I said "most cases" not "all cases" the female decides when, where and with whom. First you have to understand that the...
