Universalism then. I did address that to a degree. Here's the problems I have it with: -I don't see scriptural support for it. -There would be no such thing as justice if people who have done evil their entire lives get to share in the same rewards as the righteous. -There would be no incentive...

How about Luke 20:36? When comparing our future resurrected bodies to that of the angels, it says, “nor can they die anymore, for they are equal to the angels and are sons of God, being sons of the resurrection. There’s nowhere in the Bible where angels are ever described as dying or being...

That is problematic because many saints were also raised when Christ was raised (Mat 27:52). You’re conflating the Nephesh and the soul (consciousness), but they are not the same. Animals are Nephesh too, but no one would argue we are the same as animals (1Co 15:39). There is something...

My dad had four sons (technically five; one died shortly after birth) who are my half-brothers. When they were young, their mother basically abandoned them and hooked up with another guy, who she eventually married. So, my dad had to raise three babies by himself for five years. Eventually, they...

The conscientious objectors would likely be dead before they even got the chance in such a scenario.

Immortality is not merely living forever but being the source of life, self-existent, and uncreated. In that sense, only God is immortal. But does that preclude humans from having an immortal soul? I don't believe it does. We were created in His image. Obviously, that can't refer to our...

There are those denominations who contend that Christians adopted the concept of the immortal soul from the Greeks. Ironically, they have no problems with adopting the use of allegory, which originates from Greek thought. There are many verses I could use to challenge such a position, but for...

Do you know that for a fact? Hamas used low-tech ways to communicate prior to the attack, like hard-wired landlines built into the tunnels. That would explain why Israel was caught off guard. By "them", do you mean Hamas?

That is, if you believe those stats, which, considering the source, may not be reliable. But if you do believe them, then you should also believe that Gaza's population has steadily increased, per the Palestinian Central Bureau of Statistics. If the goal was "ethnic cleansing," then they're...

Can you cite an example of how we are doing something in Israel's interests but is at odds with America's interests? Well, it supports U.S. industries and tens of thousands of jobs for one. And money buys something else: influence and leverage. Israel does spend their own money too, to the...

"War crimes" is usually what one side calls another side when they don't like what they're doing. The object of any war should be to win by any means necessary, and preferably with overwhelming force. It seems around the Vietnam War we changed the way we fight, preferring "safer" wars with...

Let me just say, as an American, I hate dealing with health insurance. The whole thing is a complicated, bloated mess that causes nothing but headaches and problems. Once health insurance was introduced, it caused prices to skyrocket because if hospitals know insurance is going to pay the...

America first has never been about America only. America has always engaged in foreign diplomacy and international cooperation. We have never been an island unto ourselves, and it's impossible in this day and age anyway. With modern technology, the world is much smaller than it used to be. What...

@Riven @GodsGrace You may find this of interest. So, I just read this book that @Bob posted about, and was going to make a separate post about it until I saw this one (p.s. also not getting paid to promote it, I just find it interesting). I think it confirms a lot of what I have speculated...

NASA isn't the only space organization in the world; at least 70 other nations have one. 26 nations alone have visited the International Space Station. Then there's private space companies like SpaceX and Blue Origin, among others, that have sent people, some regular citizens, into space. So...

It never made sense to me, and I don't understand why it's suddenly a thing again. Perhaps because we live in a time where legitimate mistrust of our institutions has led to hyper-skepticism where everything is questioned, I don't know. But, you would have to believe there is some grand...

I'm going to address this issue in the very near future and will tag you when I do.

It’s a general analysis of all the things she’s said. She manages to blame everything on Israel, like the assassination of Charlie Kirk. "Zionist globalists" is an oxymoron. Globalists don’t have an allegiance to any state or ethnicity. They are internationalists. Their ideology is influenced...

@Brother Del There are a couple of big myths here that are continually repeated ad nauseam. Myth one: Israel has not nor is stealing their land because it was never their land to begin with. A little history lesson. That region has never been controlled by the Palestinians. Palestine was a...

According to Candace, Israel is the problem of all the ills in the world. It’s scapegoating of the highest order. Israel is not the one who let them into the Western world; it’s those governments. Particularly, the globalists that are the problem. Yup, those are the ultra-orthodox Jews who...
