We have two types of police, believers who throw stones at non believers for their sin, and believers who throw stones at other believers for me'rely quoting what is plainly stated in scripture, claiming them to be "judgmental". 'mjrhealth' is a shining example of the latter. He has made this an...

I just tell those people that if Jesus is anything less than "the word made flesh", then Jesus cannot possibly be our savior, for Paul states that: It doesn't say that we all 'will' sin, but 'have' sinned just like Adam sinned, because from Gods perspective we already sinned due to him knowing...

Interesting, well, so does this macro cosmic "heaven" include the sky, or "firmament" as its called in the creation account or just space? In the creation account, God calls the sky 'heaven' as well, and doesn't seem to make a division between it and space. Its all making even more sense now.

Right, it amazes me how people pretend to know so much about how the spirit realm works and how its supposed to be able to interact with our terrestrial environment, who will then poop all over eye witness testimony affirming its characteristics. This is why I have a very hard time taking many...

:rolleyes:....I don't know, go ask him, since you are pretending to know so much about the attributes of God beyond what is plainly written, as if the size of his hand matters to start with. According to Daniel, Gods prophet, that was the literal hand of God writing on a wall. YOU are claiming...

:rolleyes: Is that so hey? Oh well.

Exactly.....projection much?

:rolleyes:....uh huh, whatever that means, I guess you are trying to say I am "judging" others on something God flat out calls an abomination. Nothing about that is hard to understand. Its so easy to understand that even a ten year old can comprehend it.

What is a "spirit"? You are claiming to have an understanding of how it works beyond what is stated in the Bible and trying to disguise it as "exegesis". At what point does scripture define "spirit" as "formless"? All it ever says about "spirit" as far as I've seen is that it is something that...

How much of a similarity he has to his image bearers is up in the air, but one thing is clear is that his form is certainly similar to ours is what I'm saying. Scripture never actually goes much beyond that point. Even entertaining the idea that organs are "corruptible" as a reason for not...

I don't see it as believing oneself to be perfect, but rather about striving to live by Jesus as the standard, as scripture demands. There is sin, which is the transgression against the law and against God himself being the standard, and then there is a man kissing up on another mans private...

Well I don't see why his presence actually has to be bigger than the size of the universe when his 'holy spirit', the power that emanates from him, more than fits that description in of itself. You say he is beyond description, yet he has been described by those who witnessed him either in part...

o_O Hmmm......whats with Heaven #3? Is that supposed to be our DNA? Molecular biology? How is this defined in scripture and which scripture describes it like this?

The way I see it, the term "spirit" just means something that isn't bound by the laws of our physical existence. It could be referring to anything present in 'heaven', that exists as a spirit being, or was created as one. The extent to which these beings aren't bound to the laws of nature is...

God: DPMartin: "You didn't really mean what you said, what really happened was"....... :rolleyes:

Well I'd reckon that if sin still blocks the believer from God, whether he struggles with sin or not, then Jesus is not the high priest he claims to be, standing before God as our intercessor, the mediator between God and his creation.

If I were the enemy, having people mistake their dreams of eternal torment and hell fire is exactly what I'd want, to make God appear as some sadistic despot, no different than any viscous dictator that ever existed in history. It has certainly done more harm than good when trying to convert...

:rolleyes:..........I am not in any way obligated to take a passage as an allegory if it isn't explained that way. When God said we are made after his likeness, its never explained away as anything else but literal. When God himself says he has hands, a face, and allows Moses to see only the...

Well, no actually, it just sounds like what Jesus and the prophets plainly stated themselves. I didn't add anything to what they clearly witnessed. I quoted them verbatim from top to bottom. You can't claim that God is "invisible" when his own son claims the exact opposite, that he has a form...

None that I can recall off the top of my head. As long as those traditions don't add or take away from what is written in scripture, you shouldn't have to be concerned about God hitting you with a plague or having your name erased out of the book of life. This is of course in reference to the...
