    What Old Covenant Laws are the New Covenant believer to obey?

    . You have a friend? That's pretty hard to imagine. Maybe in Jesus? .

    Questions for Sabbatarians

    I had a bunkmate like that when I was in the Air Force. It was exhausting trying to keep people from beating him up all the time. One time I wasn't up to the task and he got pummeled. He actually kept his mouth shut for a day or two. It was like being on vacation. :hearteyes: .

    Questions for Sabbatarians

    ...in response to a quote that has nothing to do with that. So, what do you do when you're not being an utter vexation? .

    What Old Covenant Laws are the New Covenant believer to obey?

    Your mind is way too sharp and active for me to challenge in semi-real time. ;) :hearteyes: .

    Apokatastasis in the early church

    Have you heard of "The Fire That Consumes?" :cool: :hearteyes: .

    What Old Covenant Laws are the New Covenant believer to obey?

    It sounds so final, as if arbitrated by an infallible entity. Are you sure there's no room for discussion? :hearteyes: .

    Homosexuality: Wrong or Right?

    It may be that I'm a little too careful to "abstain from all appearance of evil" (1 Thessalonians 5:22). :hearteyes: .

    Homosexuality: Wrong or Right?

    I would tend to agree, except for the LOL part, but I'm just being a fossil, I guess. When people use things like emoticons and acronyms, I tend to take them too seriously, I think. I'm sure you don't actually think it's funny that people are mired in sin and insanity. :hearteyes: .

    Questions for Sabbatarians

    You're a riot (not). It's "White woman"—not "white woman." Again, none of which has anything to do with the conversation between @GracePeace and me about arrogance, whatsoever. I think I might be scaling back on responding to these kind of remarks, since they really speak for themselves. .

    Apokatastasis in the early church

    Hey, I like you. We could talk. You don't appear to be consumed with your own point of view. What's up with that? Have you been optimizing your brain, studying emotional intelligence, or maybe just spending a lot of time with Jesus? Benn getting enough sunlight, fresh air, pure water, exercise...

    Will Trump seek asylum in Israel and Build the 3rd Temple?

    Please stop quoting your words as if they were mine. .

    Homosexuality: Wrong or Right?

    I didn't get notified that you tagged me. I noticed something interesting today. The LGBT folks who have church like to point to Ezekiel 16:49 to extricate themselves from the sodomy charge, saying that sexual sin wasn't Sodom's downfall. The first sin listed is PRIDE. (It's almost like God...

    Apokatastasis in the early church

    I don't know, but I don't remember ever feeling forced by anything supernatural to make decisions about religion in a positive way. I do, however, remember sensing a lot of coercion toward the negative, which would bear out my general belief on the matter, I would say, i.e., God woos; Satan...

    Questions for Sabbatarians

    None of which has anything to do with what you quoted from me. Call me a hog—I'm having my cake and eating it, too. For what Christ paid, it shouldn't go to waste. .

    Was the Sabbath kept prior to the Commandments at Sinai?

    You know, you're absolutely right and I completely forgot to change my career field from machinist to carpenter. I've never been real big on sandals, either. I hope everything works out all right. - Do you actually expect anyone to take you seriously? - All I did was to literally quote...

    Did the Early Church worship on Sabbath?

    It's possibly just semantics at work, but statements like this really perk up my ears. I think people have a wrong view of church discipline. It's meant to preserve the image of God's "setting apart" and/but should be very redemptive in nature. The New Testament is pretty thick with this...

    Apokatastasis in the early church

    I understand that no one wants to die or, worse yet, be barbequed forever(¿). But I'm including in the idea of salvation my own belief (but not mine alone) that the only thing we take with us beyond this life is our character and whatever memories are left after God does whatever it is He will...

    Did the Early Church worship on Sabbath?

    (Sorry for the delay) Agreed, but that's kinda my point. The argument was always about which day of the week was the object of the 4th commandment. However lenient Sunday-keeping might have been, it was still seen as fulfilling the Sabbath obligation. Agree I'm pretty familiar with the...

    I'm confused about a show, I don't know if I should keep watching it

    Find something else to watch. You'll get to have that "Wow, this show is really cool!" moment all over again. :Broadly: .
