I think it works like THIS from HEAVEN looking down: "And you were dead in the trespasses and sins in which you once walked, following the course of this world, following the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience— among whom we all once lived...

I think MOST people appreciate it. I also think that the few that seem to think that [begin hyperbole] the Apostle Paul read from HIS KJV BIBLE and that when we get to Heaven, God will speak in KJV English [end hyperbole] scare some of us into over-reacting when commenting on the KJV to try and...

A quick lesson in genetics. Women only have X chromosomes while men have an X and a Y chromosome. So a baby girl (XX) inherits one X chromosome from the mother and one X chromosome from the father. A baby boy (XY) inherits one X chromosome from the mother and one Y chromosome from the father...

Neither. I am steadfastly presenting the truth that God cursed ADAM not EVE and the curse passes through the SONS of ADAM to their Children. (Why were Jewish BOYS circumcised as part of the covenant, but girls required no “sign”?) Eve inherited the curse of ADAM from her Human Father (Federal...

I believe that the current theory that a scribe made a note in a margin that a later copyist wrote within the body is perfectly valid as an explanation for why some manuscripts (mostly later) include words and phrases that are not found in other (mostly earlier) manuscripts. The existence of...

Are "you" (KJV advocates) really arguing that it is (evil/bad/wrong) to move a verse from the body of Biblical Text to a footnote just because it never appeared in the original manuscripts written by the Apostles and was added by a later scribe for clarification? Verses are not removed because...

Do you have this much trouble with allegory and metaphors when reading other literature? One piece of free advice: Verses will make more sense if you read them in context ... at least the whole paragraph. Dickens is also confusing if you pluck one sentence from each book and attempt to jam...

Did Mary's biological father impregnate her? No. Therefore he plays no part in passing the curse of Adam to the "seed" of Adam ... Jesus is the "seed" of God, not Adam ... the unique "seed" of Eve (woman) as predicted in Genesis 3.

[Gen 3:15 ESV] 15 I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring (seed) and her offspring (seed); he shall bruise your head, and you shall bruise his heel." [Lev 15:16-18, 32 NASB20] 16 'Now if a man has a seminal emission (seed), he shall bathe all his body in water and...

Keep straining those gnats and swallowing those camels. There are MANUSCRIPTS of Genesis that are hundreds of years older than the stories of Jesus ... so even if Genesis was written in the 3rd Century BC, that still makes it an allusion to a virgin birth long before the birth of the people...

:rolleyes: = [roll eyes] = an emoji indicating sarcasm Look up the other verses that use H2233 and see how it is used throughout the OT when referring to Human Offspring ... it is a common representation for the "ejaculation" of the male (as the source of pregnancy). However in Genesis 3, God...

When Moses wrote Genesis 3:15 thousands of years ago, making things up out of whole cloth as men do, what insanity possessed him to claim that the one to right the wrong would be from the SPERM of the woman? (The literal meaning of “her seed”). How freaky is it that thousands of years later...

THIS (salvation) is the ONLY issue on your list of “upmost importance”. Salvation is “by grace through faith alone” [and not of works lest any man boast] (Ephesians 2:1-10) and it is through “repentance and baptism”. They are two sides of the same coin. One side describes how God saves people...

I’m glad God saves all the really hard decisions for Himself. I know that I would not want to have to choose “whose baptism counts” or “who was REALLY saved”. Even if I could, I don’t think that I would want to make those choices. For me “stay or go” comes down to your closing line … “GRACE...

The Moravian Church has a motto that I find useful in many situations: "In essentials unity. In non-essentials liberty. In all things charity." The breaking of fellowship, between individuals or between an individual and a congregation, is a serious matter of "last resort". It is never...

Won't work ... we sent an Usher ahead to save a big table. :)

Yeah, I was thinking more along the lines of "after the sermon and before everyone starts to ask you about some relative that isn't there." :)

So Cain’s children DID have to fight off the T-Rex that tried to eat their sheep. :)

Deuteronomy 29:1 These are the words of the covenant which the LORD commanded Moses to make with the sons of Israel in the land of Moab, besides the covenant which He had made with them at Horeb. You keep missing the point that BOTH Covenants are between THE LORD and the SONS OF ISRAEL. You...

You would make any Pharisee proud. He answered and said to them, “Why do you also transgress the commandment of God because of your tradition? For God commanded, saying, ‘Honor your father and your mother’; and, ‘He who curses father or mother, let him be put to death.’ But you say, ‘Whoever...
