    Bibliolatry: Worship/knowledge of the book MORE than the author

    True. And the behavior reiterates scripture. 1 Corinthians 2. We witness natural minds that cannot understand the things of God. Certainly not the gateway to God's message that is found in the Bible. They don't know what Idolatry is. Claiming we idolize scripture is just another dig against...

    Bibliolatry: Worship/knowledge of the book MORE than the author

    You don't get it. And I see this. Worship of God and faith and love of his word as we are led to discern them by his Holy Spirit is live and worship of God. Not the Bible. That is what you don't understand. And only God can change your mind. While your repeating what I said to the adverse...

    Catholics say it's ok to call a priest "father" because Paul told his followers that he became their father (FALSE).

    I think it's just one more example of a church acting contrary to all the teachings of Christ.

    Bibliolatry: Worship/knowledge of the book MORE than the author

    As I said. Lack of understanding what Idolatry is causes the problem here. Christians aren't idolaters of the Bible or doctrines. That doesn't change merely because the false claim is repeatedly made. Atheists that feel drawn by Holy Spirit to seek God's teachings do not condemn, mock, or...

    Matthew 23:9 NET Version And call no one your 'father' on earth, for you have one Father, who is in heaven.

    Not double speculation at all . I realize you don't understand. It will always be what you need to believe. Even when you're wrong.

    Bibliolatry: Worship/knowledge of the book MORE than the author

    I think there is a lack of understanding as to what Idolatry actually is, or entails. Certainly atheists claiming Christians worship the Bible is an example of that aforementioned failure in understanding. As is holding respect for a particular doctrine not at Allan example of idolatry. What...

    Maybe you might realize the word he was referring to was, is, God.

    Bibliolatry: Worship/knowledge of the book MORE than the author

    It tells me you're wrong. Christianity doesn't crumble under scrutiny. Rather I believe atheism does if any atheist spends time , hours, years, as an active member of a community they know is dedicated to what does not exist; God. Therein wasting their one and only life's time engaging with...

    I believe that gay people have as much of a "choice" to be gay as you do to not sin

    If that's true then conversely we have a choice to be straight.

    At what age are we to condemn people of other religions to hell?

    We don't condemn. That's God's job

    Would you vote for / support Ron DeSantis for President of the USA in 2024?

    God help us if MO gets in. If so, the idea elections are rigged is confirmed.

    Bibliolatry: Worship/knowledge of the book MORE than the author

    .** Which I think is why Jesus advised we not believe 3very spirit, written or spoken of course, but test to see if they are of God. Jesus was God. I find it fascinating how he would refer to an OT teaching and then say, but I say to you. When we know God does not change nor contradict...

    Bibliolatry: Worship/knowledge of the book MORE than the author

    The problem that always arises in any Christian forum is when atheists are allowed to roam the entire site. Rather than be restricted to an atheist board only.

    How is idolizing the Bible accomplished? What qualifies as idolizing the Bible?

    Do most Christians here really support Russia invading Ukraine?

    Is a tyrant an example of a good Christian?

    Sources say Trump could be arrested as early as next week

    Paying Daniel's isn't a crime is it? Maybe bad taste in women but a crime?

    Sources say Trump could be arrested as early as next week

    That was the question during his presidency when the Left kept saying he'd be arrested any day. The crime? Building our economy, cutting the purse strings to countries leaching off our money while not paying their own dues to BATO and others. Making us energy 8ndepend3nt so Arab nations no...

    (New Testament) Is what We Have Now What They Wrote Then? A brief lecture by Daniel Wallace

    Love this lecture. He even addresses,and destroys, the sad personal testimony, book, by the atheist apologist Bart Ehrman: Misquoting Jesus.
