How can you respond to someone who says he is a Christian and tells you that the Biblical Flood did not happen? To the point: Jesus considered the Flood as a real event. If someone says the contrary, you know something indictable: that person is not Christian; he is just pretending.:cool...

I won't talk to machines, so to anyone on charge: control your bots. Thanks. :Thumbsup:

Just so you don't waste time: don't bother directing me any posts, because I'm ignoring you. Hostile people are not Christians.

Is it realistic for an "independent Christian" to consider himself part of a church that is made up of people united in a common identity?

Adam, Christians are people who believe that there is not salvation without Jesus. You seem not to be a Christian. Why you put you are in your profile? My thread is aimed at people who are Christians.

So, Amadeus, again: If some "Christian" tells you that if scientists do not find evidence of a planetary flood, you do not have to take the Biblical story literally, what would you say? In other words: How can you respond to someone who says he is a Christian and tells you that the Biblical...

Isaiah finished his inspired book of prophecies after 732 BC. It took more than 100 years for the greatest misfortune that happened to the Israelites to occur: the conquest of Judah, the destruction of Jerusalem and its temple. The land was devastated, and only a few poor people were left...

Good point, Amadeus. Now imagine those who tells you that called themself "Christians". What would you tell them?

You are just another of the teachers of Christendom, no more, no less. Copying passages from the Bible is no indication that what you interpret from them is correct. All of Christendom's "teachers" do that... It is thorough analysis of the Bible, with proper logical, unbiased, and honest...

"Salvation" could be out of many things, all harmful for us. A "savior" could even be a person who saves you from a heart attack, from respiratory arrest, from drowning, from a fire, from an abuser, etc. If a person has experienced any of these events, or others, he already knows what the word...

Let's talk about it here. Rev. 20 is the passage that explains more about the millennium. Some biblical scholars and theologians, among the plethora of them with different and contradictory ideas existing in modern Christendom, have come to think that those thousand years are not even a real...

Some "Christians" who do not study the Bible much believe that the promise of new heavens and a new earth found in 2 Pet. 3:13 and in Rev. 21:1, implies a destruction of the planet and the creation of a new one. But because they are the same ones who teach that you should not study the...

If some "Christian" tells you that if scientists do not find evidence of a planetary flood, you do not have to take the Biblical story literally, what would you say?

The way you said it really seems very absurd. BUT it is not that simple you want to make it look, and obviously you need to consider other edges of the total figure, like: What if: God is not always looking in direction of what people would do in the future? Why did Jesus send his disciples...

To understand many of the NT statements, Bible students need to be able to distinguish between the "kings and priests" and those Jesus mentions in Matt. 5:5 as inheritors of the earth John 14:1 Do not let your hearts be troubled. Exercise faith in God; exercise faith also in me. 2 In the house...

In this psychological desire of "pertaining to a church" that is really led by Jesus, individuals of all kinds of beliefs and styles of life try to deceive their own mind by telling themselves that they themselves are part of that church ... even some who don't even have true faith and hardly...

Jesus Christ not only made a pact with his brothers so that they would reign with him in heaven (Luke 22:28-30), but he also spoke of the righteous who would inherit the earth. Matt. 5:5 Happy are the mild-tempered, since they will inherit the earth. To say that, he had to be convinced that...

Yes, Jehovah judged the world in Noah's time because humanity was ruined due to violent behavior, especially due to the influence of abusive demihumans. Jehovah made a drastic decision, but he found a righteous man whom he wanted to save. His having found one righteous man at least shows that...

I can see you don't like the name of God. That is probably why you are by yourself. Acts 15:14 Symeon has related thoroughly how God for the first time turned his attention to the nations to take out of them a people for his name. 15 And with this the words of the Prophets agree, just as it is...

Peter, like Paul, knew that Jehovah's servants before Christ would be resurrected on earth after Christ's brothers were glorified by being resurrected to go to heaven: 1 Pet. 1:10 Concerning this salvation, the prophets who prophesied about the undeserved kindness meant for you made a diligent...
