We are to judge the fruits of the Spirit....do you really need me to provide the verses? As far as eternal Judgement? Of course that's God's job and not mine...nor do I want it.

I call them like I see them. But I'm not retracting. I literally don't see any. That CAN change....and I hope that it does. And calling upon your wife's opinion in contrast to what Paul clearly says in scripture? Ummmmm.....I'm not persuaded in the slightest. Jesus said that this...

@Dan Clarkston , Just reciting the "Sinners Prayer" once and then going out and doing nothing more towards your salvation is nothing more than an emotional moment where you grabbed a sort of "Fire Insurance " policy to protect yourself from Hell. That's not being a child of God. There are...

@Dan Clarkston When Apostle Paul speaks specifically about the sin of Homosexuality and what causes it and the dangers of it specifically....I take Paul extremely seriously. It doesn't matter if you like it, agree with it, or want to argue the point. Paul's words are scripture....meaning a...

Dunno....I haven't run into a church based heavily upon Phillip....

Because being a Christian is an all consuming identity. One that precludes having an identity in a sinful practice. According to Paul, homosexuality is a curse as the result of a sinful lifestyle as well as a sin in and of itself. It's impossible to have moral turpitude and a life inside...

Actually the Coptics in Egypt are descended from Mark, Peter's cousin who wrote the Gospel of Mark.... Mark's Gospel is actually a recounting of the many stories Peter told before he was Crucified upside down. And I personally believe that most of John 8 belongs in Mark where Jesus addresses...

Illiteracy was in large part due to the Church refusing to teach people how to read. (See the preface of the 1611 KJV) The St. Valentines day is a day to venerate the Priest who would marry others in defiance of the church.... This is an ongoing thing....there's a LOT of evidence to not...

I dunno exactly what they mean by blessing either. Used to be those who live sinful lifestyles were out of the church and couldn't receive any blessing whatsoever. This is a huge thing for Catholics....it's crossing lines already established.

The stone was indeed rolled away to let people in....it certainly wasn't to let Jesus out. But I was wondering which of the two official seals the Priest used.

Colossians 2: 21“Do not handle, do not taste, do not touch!”? 22These will all perish with use, because they are based on human commands and teachings. 23Such restrictions indeed have an appearance of wisdom, with their self-prescribed worship, their false humility, and their harsh treatment of...

If only this notion of apostolic succession was true. But the book of Samuel tells a different story...so does the books of Judges, Chronicles, and Kings. The Old Testament is full of the Old Testament Church/Temple leaving behind the Torah for illicit practices and the Levites promoting these...

The priests can now bless those in homosexual marriages....they can't bless the marriage itself but those in it can receive blessings.

Look at the announcement out of the Vatican.... Apparently this pope fears men more than God.

Edification is not really understood by most internet theologians. But basically God created each of us to be an individual and has a unique relationship with each of us that believe. Each of us is uniquely created to perform and behave and grow uniquely. Meaning that each of us must have...

It's what comes out of the heart that makes a man unclean. Especially unforgiveness, self-righteousness, and condemnation. Sure, there are sins of identification that cause a person to be numbered with the heathen but a diet isn't one of those identifying things. A special religious diet...

Pork fat is king.... Ham and cheese is good and a staple....not to mention BACON!. Shrimp cocktails? Shrimp on the barbie? Fettuccine with Shrimp? Shrimp salad? Oysters Rockefeller? Oh I think I have to.....

I would say that their tenant of "Unconditional Election" is the real culprit for hubris, pride, and licensed sin. Since God is the reason for their state of Salvation then there's no possibility of them causing God to remove their state of election. Meaning they get to sin all they wish...

Fore-ordination is not the same thing as predestination. Some people can't imagine a God so smart, big, and sovereign that total free will by his creation is a possibility or a given. For example....Daniel held up a letter to Darius the Mede for Cyrus when he conquered the city Babylon...

I'm not giving up my beliefs for anyone.... But that doesn't mean that I can't work with or along side of those who have different ideas about the Gospel message....(I couldn't go to church if that were the case)
