    Why Did Our Father Want Blood Sacrifices?

    God being please with Abel does not necessarily mean that He enjoyed the blood sacrifice. You spoke of Christ's death, you said it "pleased" God. In what sense do you believe it pleased Him? The reason I ask is I believe many atheists have the wrong understanding of Chrsit 's death and d your...

    Why Did Our Father Want Blood Sacrifices?

    It's not that God enjoys the blood of sacrifices, the blood of the lamb was a type to show that an innocent victim (the lamb) would have to die for the sins of men. It was pointing them to the sacrifice that Christ would make. God said He had no pleasure in the Israel's sacrifices.

    Baptism And The Ante-Nicene Fathers

    How did the Ante-Nicene Church Fathers understand baptism? Was it essential or was it just a act of obedience? First let me clarify, the Ante-Nicene Church Fathers are those men who led the church prior to the Council of Nicaea in 325 A.D. Any mention of the Early Church will be limited to this...

    How Will It Be In Gods New Kingdom ?

    My friend Why do say i am not going to understand it? I am quite capable of understanding it, My IQ is high enough to understand. You said Get a Companion Study Bile and a Strong's Concordance. I have a Strong's concordance, along with a Strong's Dictionary, Thayers, Dictionary...

    Why do you not answer my questions? Instead of answers you give me questions?

    How Will It Be In Gods New Kingdom ?

    His sister. Why do you assume that there were only three people. Adam and Eve had daughters, just because they are not mentioned does not mean they did not exist. It's not??? Can give some Scripture to prove this? Peter is rather vague, He says of Old. That team covers quite a bit of time...

    The Holy Trinity

    Come on friend, it is clear in the Scriptures. Question, you said, the Spirit was in the man, are you saying that Jesus and the Christ are two different entities?

    Election The Chosing Of God

    Read closely, David says he was conceived in sin. It speaks of his mother's sin, not his. There is no mention of David's sin in this passage. Even if there were, it would prove nothing for it speaks of David, not me or anyone else. Are you serious? Christ's death was a payment to the ground...

    How Will It Be In Gods New Kingdom ?

    Dude, You are making a lot of statements that you accept as fact. I don't necessarily accept them as fact. You are going on about nights and days and dispensations, please give me some evidence for some of your claims. You give the Psalm and Peter's statement that a day is as a thousand years...

    The Holy Trinity

    Friend, you still have not dealt with the passage. In the Gen. passage it does not say that God spoke form heaven, it tells us the Lord on earth called down fire and brimstone from the Lord in heaven. Jesus is the Son He is not the Father, he cannot be, consider Paul's words. 1 Timothy...

    Election The Chosing Of God

    Is that all you have? You are building a doctrine based on the use of two different words? I didn't owe a debt. Who was this payment made to?

    The Holy Trinity

    Yahweh is a term used of both Jesus and the Father. The term is translated in the Greek Septuagint as "Theos" which in the NT is applied to both Jesus and the Father by the apostle. However, you did not address the issue. The passage I quoted clearly shows the Lord on earth calling down fire...

    Election The Chosing Of God

    Where does Scripture teach that sin is a debt?

    The Holy Trinity

    I'm not sure where you are going here. Yes Jesus is the one who appeared in the OT. That however does not make Him the Father. He is called the "All Mighty". We know that all authority was given to Him. Question, if He is the Father, who gave Him the authority? Consider, Genesis 19:24 ( KJV...

    Where does Scripture teach that sin is a "Debt"?

    How Will It Be In Gods New Kingdom ?

    Your pulling stuff together that is unrelated. How do you tie that lengthened day of Joshua to morning and evening the first day? Where does Scripture teach us of the "Night of the Lord"?

    The Holy Trinity

    I could go into a long discussion of why but actually it is the translation. Modern English translations are translated from Hebrew Texts that were rather late in time. A more accurate translation is that of the Old Testament Greek called the Septuagint. Here is the same passage in the...

    Election The Chosing Of God

    You are correct in that God must make the first move, and He does. John 1:5-9 ( KJV ) And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not. There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men...

    How Will It Be In Gods New Kingdom ?

    Then there was morning and evening the first day. Yes, a day with the Lord is as a thousand years and a thousand years as a day., however, Peter didn't say anything about the morning and evening.
