    Daring Death - a Sin?

    You have used an Appeal to Mockery Logical Fallacy here. We cannot have a logical discussion when you engage in erroneous reasoning. Bye, bye, :eek: Oz

    Daring Death - a Sin?

    Gehenna on earth is bbyrd009's unsupported opinion. You say, 'Hades mythology has no concept of punishment after death, or "hell" like we understand that term'. Mate, don't you understand what mythology is and that Jesus used Hades as a symbol of what happens after death. Mark 9:47 (NLT)...

    Daring Death - a Sin?

    aspen, Are you saying that if someone commits suicide that it is God who is choosing how they die? Oz

    Daring Death - a Sin?

    bb, You do not give one Scripture to support your case for Gehenna on earth. Yes, in the OT it was a burning rubbish dump outside Jerusalem, but Jesus used it symbolically in Mark 9:47 for hell/Gehenna. That does not mean the future place for the damned is on earth. 'And if your eye causes you...

    Daring Death - a Sin?

    John, I recommend a read of this short article, "Do we have an appointed time of death?" (Got Questions?) It addresses some of the issues you raised regarding suicide and other ways to shorten life. I asked you: '4 In spite of your disability, have you continued to trust God for your life and...

    Daring Death - a Sin?

    John, What is your relationship with Jesus? Was there a point in your life where you responded in faith to the Gospel message and you were born again? Have you continued living in that relationship with God? Are you receiving fellowship and assistance through a local church. In spite of your...

    Daring Death - a Sin?

    bb, That is false and you don't asknowledge it is false teaching. Unfortunately the KJV translated the Greek words of Hades, Gehenna and Tartarus in the NT all as 'hell'. They are unfortunate mistranslations. Greek words for the KJV’s ‘hell’ in the New Testament J Gibbons provided the...

    Is an all-loving God better?

    This is part of Dr Craig's reasoning against Allah and his covert comparison with the God of Christianity: So the question in this case is whether it is better to give unconditional love rather than demand that one’s love be earned. Here I fear that your moral intuitions have been distorted...

    Is an all-loving God better?

    A Muslim from Jordan asked Christian apologist, Dr William Lane Craig, this question. Is the all-loving God of Christianity 'better' than Allah who is not all loving? I found Dr Craig's short response enlightening. See it on the Reasonable Faith website , Is an all-loving God better? How do...

    The gift of tongues

    That's only by a small number of heretical groups who require tongues as an indication of regeneration. In Australia, a group such as the Revival Centres of Australia believe that. The small group of Oneness Pentecostals (anti-Trinitarian) also believes in tongues for salvation. See also...

    The Godhead, Diversified Oneness

    This is an Appeal to Ignorance Fallacy. We cannot have a logical conversation when you carry on like this and treat me as an idiot. Bye, Oz

    The Godhead, Diversified Oneness

    I have a very high view of Scripture, believing in the inerrancy of Scripture in the original documents. I do not struggle with the word of God. That's a false allegation. I will stand up and be counted when false teaching is being perpetrated. That's what you've been doing in some of your...

    The gift of tongues

    Frank, are you supportive or not of the gift of tongues for today in the church? I'm speaking of tongues as a genuine gift of the Spirit given to some and not to all. We know from 1 Cor 12:30 and the Greek construction that the answer to the question, 'Do all speak in tongues?' that the answer...

    The gift of tongues

    So what are your issues with the gift of tongues in 1 Cor 12-14? Please list them and I'll respond one at a time as I have time.

    The Godhead, Diversified Oneness

    So you are using an Appeal to Emotion Fallacy instead of using reason to 'win your argument. So is your :) meant to indicate you really won't use 'fun' in your reply to me and that you will be serious with the Scriptures? Oz

    The Godhead, Diversified Oneness

    It has zero to do with 'you educated guys'. It has to do with my knowing the Word of God and interpreting in context. Any other time you use LOL, I will not reply to you because it is an Appeal to Ridicule Fallacy.

    I know that SIT is an acronym for System Integration Testing. For what is SiT an acronym?

    The Godhead, Diversified Oneness

    This is what happens when you cherry pick single verses and come up with your strange doctrine. There is NOTHING in Lk 2:11 or Isa 43:11 that destroys my Trinitarian belief system. Lk 2:11 speaks of Jesus the Saviour. Isa 43:11 is in the midst of a prophecy and deals with the Lord God who is...
