That is textbook equivocation, with non sequitur and strawman fallacies following. It is an error to treat “not of this world” as if it meant: “not located on earth,” “not involving geography,” “not having any physical manifestation.” In John 18:36, kosmos is used ethically, not geographically...

This is mind numbing for some: Act 1:6-11 Therefore, when they had come together, they asked Him, saying, "Lord, will You at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?" (7) And He said to them, "It is not for you to know times or seasons which the Father has put in His own authority. (8) But...

Proves my point, exactly.

No-one actually saved, sealed, and delivered wants to be unsaved, unsealed, and undelivered, and God doesn't want the latter for them, so it doesn't happen. Read all of Romans 8 if you need to :waves:

Hey Pandas, you wrote that some readers don't understand what is written in I Timothy 3:16. I supplied explanatory notes. Often the problem with comprehension of any writings is the isolating of words, phrases, sentences, and paragraphs from their context. Context is king, it pays to remember.

Paul’s “chief of sinners” and “first to receive mercy” (1 Tim 1:15–16) is humility, not hierarchy Paul is not saying: “I am the first Christian” “I am the only apostle for today” “I am the prototype of a new gospel” He is saying: “If God can save me, He can save anyone.” It is hyperbolic...

The Judaisers hated Paul with a passion, and eventually this caused him to disengage from their retinue. Act 18:1-11 After these things Paul departed from Athens and went to Corinth. (2) And he found a certain Jew named Aquila, born in Pontus, who had recently come from Italy with his wife...

The Word made flesh. Same God, different form. Php 2:5-6 Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, (6) who, being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God,

Very well written and presented.

He didn't. Heb 5:7-8 For Jesus, in the days of His flesh, when He had offered up prayers and supplications with strong cryings and tears to Him who was able to save Him from death, and was heard in that He feared, (8) though being a Son, yet He learned obedience by the things which He suffered.

How do I know that your intelligence isn't artificial?

Hi @RepentingChristian Here's my take on this subject, using God-given resources to rightly portion Scripture ️ 1. “Unite all things” = Cosmic Order Restored Ephesians 1:10 says Christ will “unite all things in Him, things in heaven and things on earth.” Paul is describing the end of...

Roman Empire comes to mind - Caesar worship.

. . . and programmed to perform :crossword:

If you are reading this then you are using artificial intelligence. Perhaps you didn't realise.

Thanks for your insightful contribution @Anchorite. I began listening to Bible readings while I was in the womb, and now in my 72nd year of mostly daily Bible reading, study, devotion, prayer, and worship, I have come to understand and appreciate why we have the written Word of God. I recall...
