    Love

    I don't believe Jesus Christ's actions were the same as Adam actions. Adam was disobedient, Jesus actions at no time ever were disobedient. I don't believe God would encourage disobedience, so no Jesus actions were not the same as Adams. You will find nowhere in scripture where Jesus was guilty...

    Love

    It looks to me that the account at Genesis chapter 3 when God is addressing Adam is a punishment which includes death, both Adam and Eve death I believe is an eternal death. I believe the Ransom sacrifice applies to Adam and Eve offspring, but not Adam and Eve themselves.

    Love

    Are you saying that you don't believe the punishment for sin is death? In the case of Adam and Eve they sinned by being disobedient, death is the punishment for that disobedience.

    Love

    I disagree, you are saying God approves of Adam being disobedient. I will never agree with that. Exactly how God would have handled it I don't know, but God wants us to be obedient to him and not go own way not asking for his wisdom on the matter, Adam didn't call to God asking for his help.If...

    Love

    Jehovah God and his only Begotten Son set the example that we mattered to them, that how we feel what we think is important to them, so what they think how they feel should matter to us. It matters to Jehovah God and his only Begotten Son that Satan called Jehovah God a liar and a unjust Ruler...

    Love

    When you look at a couple as becoming one, do you think you should love yourself more than God, if you're looking at yourself and your wife as being one person?

    Love

    My I certainly agree we should love one another, and yes we are showing love for God when we do so. However I believe more is required, such as in praising and glorifying God's holy name Jehovah, letting everyone know that he is the creator of all things and the source of all life, that his...

    Love

    Adam didn't have to be disobedient because Eve chose to be disobedient. Do you think that if someone jumps off a cliff we all should follow that person and jump off the cliff too? By you asking, "if Adam doesn't eat, where does that leave Eve?" Asking a question like that is reasoning that love...

    Love

    By the way you wrote in the text I replied to, it seemed to me that you were saying Adam reasoned that he was showing love to Eve when he ate the forbidden fruit, and it seemed to me that you were implying God was okay with that, but that's showing love for his wife before God and that not...

    Exodus 10, Has me wondering

    God's dealings with Pharaoh is often incorrectly understood to mean that God arbitrarily hardens the heart of individuals according to his for ordained purpose, without regard for the individuals prior inclination, or heart attitude. God permitted Pharaoh to harden his own heart--- spared him---...

    Love

    I disagree with this reasoning. Adam instead of eating the forbidden fruit when Eve offered he could have put the love of God first by calling upon God asking his wisdom instead of relying on his own.

    Religion is about what WE do.True Christianity is about what CHRIST has already done.

    I don't think you will be able to convince me that we shouldn't put forth effort to stop murdering, stealing, bearing false witness, lying, warring, etc. and if you think that isn't work you're wrong. I agree that we shouldn't have the motivation of trying to save ourselves, instead we should...

    The thief on the cross !?

    We must remember that the way most people look at that word "today" in that scripture are by a man or group of men interpretation because the original inspired scripture had no punuation. Just because men interpret that scripture by their punuation doesn't mean that scripture agrees with that...

    Why Christians Should Believe Noah's Flood

    It sounds like you are saying that the Flood caused the Earth to divide into the continents we see today and using Genesis 10:25 to support that, but if this is what you are saying you can't use Genesis 10: 25 to back that up because Genesis 10:25 is talking of the people being divided by...

    Why Christians Should Believe Noah's Flood

    Frankly we don't know how far humans had spread over the Earth in Noah's time.Granted it wasn't populated as today, but can we honestly say we know for a fact there were no humans anywhere except in the middle East?

    No thanks, I'll continue to use my translation.

    The Holy Spirit

    my Bible doesn't say "me" it says: they will certainly look to the One "whom" they pierced through, and they will certainly wail over Him as in the wailing over an only [son]; so maybe in your Bible, "I" and "me" turn into him but they don't in my Bible.

    The Holy Spirit

    regarding John 10:30 this simply means Jehovah God and his Only-Begotten Son Jesus are united in a common purpose going by the context that scripture is written in. Regarding Zechariah 14:9 people on earth must recognize Jehovah as God and Universal Sovereign, as “king over all the earth” by...

    The Holy Spirit

    Regarding Zechariah 12: 10 - “And I will pour out upon the house of David and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem the spirit of favor and entreaties, and they will certainly look to the One whom they pierced through, and they will certainly wail over Him as in the wailing over an only son; and...

    The Holy Spirit

    To “know,” does not necessarily mean merely to be acquainted with or cognizant of something or someone. The foolish Nabal knew David’s name but still asked, “Who is David?” in the sense of asking, “What does he amount to?” (1Sa 25:9-11; compare 2Sa 8:13.) So, too, Pharaoh had said to Moses: “Who...
