    It's about "relationship"...right?

    Why are you telling me what I already know?

    It's about "relationship"...right?

    Where is this instruction found? I don't appreciate you making up the Bible as you go and your refusal to cite specific passages where God commands the apostles to demand compensation for their preaching. Again, Paul violated NO commandment of God by refusing to be compensated for his work. By...

    What benefit does it produce to make Jesus God

    The only thing being jettisoned is the plain word of God, by those who hate the divinity of Jesus. Those who attack the divinity of Jesus agree with and align themselves with SATANIC orders such as Freemasons, the Illuminati, Knights of Malta, Rosicrucianists, Luciferians, Satanists, and...

    What benefit does it produce to make Jesus God

    I think the number one problem is people thinking they have "great evidence" from Scripture for why Jesus is not God. "His (Jesus) name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, the Mighty God, the Everlasting Father, the Prince of Peace..."

    The Divine Exchange

    Sure, Isaiah 66: Isaiah 66:15-17 KJV (emphasis mine) [15] For, behold, the Lord will come with fire (Second Coming), and with his chariots like a whirlwind, to render his anger with fury, and his rebuke with flames of fire. [16] For by fire and by his sword will the Lord plead with all flesh...

    The answer of hell and its origins

    Agree 100% that the Hell is not an eternal place of eternal torture, but is "The Fire that Consumes" to quote the title of Fudge's book. Check out "After Death, Then What?" and "When And Where Is Hell?" - two of the best, most comprehensive studies on the subject, IMHO.

    The Direct And Inverse Proportionality of Holiness

    A man's beautiful young daughter was kidnapped by a psychopath and brutally raped and tortured repeatedly. After he'd finally had enough of her, he shot her dead and dumped her body. The police eventually caught him and dragged him before a judge. The judge said, "What you've done is wicked...

    What benefit does it produce to make Jesus God

    Jesus' HUMAN NATURE OF FLESH AND BONE DIED AND ROSE AGAIN, but His DIVINE NATURE is from eternity past to eternity future and nothing you say will change that. Throw away that NWT and read the Textus Receptus. "For if ye believe not that I AM, ye shall die in your sins".

    May our Lord bless you with healing and total recovery, friend.

    Difference between Catholic and Protestant.

    "Intent" is not the issue. Jeraboam "intended" to worship God in the North instead of at Jerusalem, saying "It's too much" trouble for you people to make the pilgrimage to Jerusalem, and therefore he set up a false priesthood, false choir, false order of service, false altar...and a false day of...

    It's about "relationship"...right?

    Please allow me to spell this out: Who is doing the work, the Plowman or the Ox? So then, to whom is the commandment to "not muzzle" directed, the Ox doing the work or the Plowman for whom the work is being done? Is the Ox commanded to eat? Of course not. LIKEWISE: Paul likens those like him...

    The Divine Exchange

    I think it's a principle which extends beyond merely the menu, which btw I still insist refers to lawful foods items. Isaiah says at Jesus fiery coming, those found eating pork and mice are in trouble. It's not referring to a time when "Jews are down here while we're up there" because Peter says...

    What benefit does it produce to make Jesus God

    Nobody talks like that: nobody lays past and present tense next to one another in such statements of contrast for the simple reason that it sounds ridiculous, as the following illustrates: "Before you did it, I do" sounds ridiculous. "Before you did it, I've done it" is appropriate. "Before...

    Is worshiping Satan lawful? Obviously not. "All things are lawful" means "all things the law allows" -- not that which it disallows, lest Satan worship and sodomy is now perfectly acceptable in the sight of God. It's lawful to marry, but not helpful to marry a lazy man. It's lawful to work hard...

    Hi, how are things?

    What benefit does it produce to make Jesus God

    Do you talk like that? Would you say to a small child, "Before you were, I am", or do you say, "Before you were, I was"? Oh, you'd say, "I was" and not "I am"? Why? See what I did there? I made you admit that there's only one way to say it without appearing incredibly foolish.

    It's about "relationship"...right?

    Good grief, I've never seen a more convoluted interpretation. I want Book, Chapter, and Verse where God commands preachers to demand compensation for their work...no such commandment exists for Paul to disobey. Paul's simply saying, "Though I have a God ordained right to ask, I ask nothing of...

    The Divine Exchange

    I have free will to do harm to my loved ones - but never fight against a desire to do it. However, like most of us, I indeed have a desire to overeat and/or eat the wrong things, and I fight fiercely against that. In both cases, free will is exercised, so the problem is something other than...

    Difference between Catholic and Protestant.

    Exodus 20 and Deuteronomy 4:13 KJV are in perfect harmony - you're interpretation of Exodus 20 makes them DISHARMONIOUS. The Catholic church claims the power to change God's law and had eliminated the commandment forbidding image worship...and claims that she changed the Sabbath from the 7th day...

    What benefit does it produce to make Jesus God

    There's no greater butchering of the English or ANY language than to say, "Before you were, I AM". It makes no sense...it's not proper syntax...it's not the proper way to communicate. "Before you were, I WAS" is the correct way to communicate the fact of one's preexistence of another...
