There are many who object to DeSantis' bill that prohibits teaching sexuality to K through 3rd grade children. Many folks think the children should be taught sexuality. I wonder how many of these same folks would think it equally OK to teach the Bible to those same kids, especially in light of...

I think I already told you I don't know everything about the scriptures, Matt 11:11 being one such verse. It's just a little unclear to me. However, I do understand 1 Cor 8:6; "But to us [there is but] one God, the Father, of whom [are] all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by...

Yes what? Not sure what you meant. Does Eph 3:9 say God did the work Himself, or did He do it through Jesus? If He did it through Jesus, then Jesus acted as God's agent. I know of no other agent who is the same person as the one who hired the agent.

Then stop debating with me. Problem solved.

Lot's of people are both fathers and sons but nobody is their own father as the trinity claims.

Just because something is an institution does not make it Biblical. We got God's word through various men who God inspired to write (2 Tim 3:16). God did not need an institution to communicate His words any more than your or I need am institution to communicate the words we speak. The Koran...

Well, you yourself said, "2 distinct persons," which I've been saying all along. "The Alpha and the Omega" are titles. The title "Lord" is also applied to both God and Jesus as well as several humans. Then there is this: if you look carefully at Revelation 22 you will see that is was actually...

First of all, I do not mean to disparage Roman Catholics. I wouldn't dare guess who is God's child and who is not. That is up to God. I love all Christians, regardless of denomination. Nobody, Catholic or Protestant, can go beyond what they are taught. That much I understand. An institution is...

Yes, I understand, but any comment on the actual material in the post? Does Ephesians 3:19 say God worked through Jesus, or does it say God did the work Himself? Does 2 Timothy 2:15 tell us to study the Church Fathers and Catechism, or does it say to study the scriptures? Just telling me to...

Wickedness compounds because a dear child of God might make a mistake? Do you know it all? If not, why are you not compounding wickedness? I'm starting to see a lot of un-Christ like behavior here. Not that I'm perfect. The only perfect one is Jesus, but we can and should do better than...

Well, I see that Jesus is Lord of Lords and King of Kings. That's in Rev 17:14. I also see all things created THROUGH Jesus. Eph 3:9, And to make all [men] see what [is] the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus...

Rev 21:4, And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. This tells us exactly what the former things are, i.e., no more tears, death, sorrow, crying...

Sounds like a plan. Let's do it. :)

Any comment on John's stated purpose for writing his Gospel? John 20:31, But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name. Why do you suppose John didn't say, "that ye might believe that Jesus is God"...

Go for it! It's not as though nobody else has ever tried to shut me down, and yet I'm still here. :)

WOW! You might want to consider polishing your diplomacy skills a bit.

The word "Word" is the Greek word logos. Have you done any study on exactly what logos means? If it says Jesus is God, then it directly contradicts John's reason for writing his Gospel. John 20:31, But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that...

Honestly, I'm not sure abut that. Obviously both John and Jesus had a mother. But I do know whatever it says, it can't contradict the many crystal clear verses that would make it quite impossible for Jesus to be God. It certainly does not say in clear cut terms that Jesus is God. Matt...

I have that book myself. It is a good one for sure. There is also "Receiving the Holy Spirit Today" by Victor Paul Wierwille. I know he's controversial, but even the greatest rogues aren't 100% wrong. I knew him personally and despite his shortcomings (not as bad as my own), I think he was a...

Matt 11:11, Verily I say unto you, Among them that are born of women there hath not risen a greater than John the Baptist: notwithstanding he that is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he. Jesus was not referring to himself when he said, "the least in the kingdom of heaven..."...
