To God be the glory

A description of the life of Jesus which is what you've given above does nothing to answer the question of whether He was capable of choosing to sin. What does offer evidence that He could choose to sin is the fact that on several occasions He fought very hard to resist the temptation to sin...

Jesus couldn't sin but had to "learn obedience" anyway? Why? Jesus couldn't sin but almost died twice fighting temptation both in the wilderness after His baptism and also in Gethsemane when He pleaded over and over for His Father to deliver Him from the agony and suffering of the Cross that...

That is total bulldookey. SDAs never teach salvation by works, but by grace through faith. We teach works are the unavoidable consequence of having been saved by grace through faith, while cultists like you teach disobedience to the Ten Commandments, which is not sanctioned anywhere in...

Stick around, it's about to get worse. Didja here this week China is offering between $1300-$1500 for anyone who turns in others caught practicing Christianity? I feel so sorry for the Chi-Com leaders on judgment day.

When dealing with the nature of Christ, we mustn't presume. He was 100% man and 100% God and that is something we're never going to be able to explain but have to accept by faith. His divine nature could not sin, but in His humanity, He could most certainly have sinned, which is why He sweat "as...

No one could have taken Christ's place because thanks to Adam, none of us were born indwelt with the Holy Spirit, and the fact that Christ could choose obedience or sin will never change that.

Wrong, I'm saying it is unfair for God to hold up Jesus as our example of how to keep from sinning when, as you claim, He was incapable of sinning - an example that is anything becoming of a "just" God, but we can leave this for a later discussion if you wish.

The "seventy sevens" are a period of time "amputated" (Hebrew: "chatak") from something. From what are these 70 Weeks cut off?

I'm not talking about fairness in the sentencing of convicts, but behavioral expectations preceding actions that will eventually be judged. God demanding we "walk even as He walked" and giving Jesus a nice smooth path before Him while we are forced to tread barefoot on fiery coals ain't my idea...

No, God can act with impunity against anyone and anything...except this: His own Self-proclaimed Divine attributes. If He declares Himself just and fair, He will never act contrary to that, which means anyone who thinks God is fair and just in demanding we apart from Jesus live up to the...

They were so real, the agony He endured in resisting them caused Him to sweat blood and almost die, you can be sure. It seems you believe God has sentenced us to death for failing to live up to the standard of perfection set by Jesus when all along, you claim, it was impossible for Jesus to...

It's not "seminary doctrine", it's simple exegesis. "Naos" is the Greek for "temple" and over and over Paul uses "naos" to describe the church. Let's not pretend the suggestion that the "temple of God" is symbolic for the church has no Biblical precedent in order to establish a viewpoint which...

Core Issue cracks me up LOL

Would you define a Christian "cult" as a group who departs from the teaching and example of Jesus?

As a Seventh-day Adventist, I don't mind his videos or his criticism. He's doing what he believes is right, however wrong he is about my faith. However, if he starts publishing encyclicals bragging "the church lit the fires of the Spanish inquisition" (like you know who), that would be a bit...

"general availability" or "divided severally"? 1 Corinthians 12:7-11 KJV

God would never refer to a rebuilt temple in which the sacrifices therein would be the ultimate exclamatory rejection of Gods beloved Son as the "temple of God". More like the temple of Doom. The "temple" as described by Paul over and over is the church.

Trust me, I know all about secret societies and mystery religions - The Two Babylons by Alexander Hislop is also a great book which illustrates why Roman Catholicism is ancient pagan Sun worship mystery religion perfected and Satan's Antichrist headquarters on Earth. I was talking about the...

But isn't that the same thing as God demanding we who are riding tricycles keep up with Jesus Who's riding a ten speed, or die if we don't?
