There are three topics I really wish i had time to address on ths forum, and. Rom 3:31. Its such a simple verse yet it confounds some so deeply! I will give the short version: What is the purpose of the third chapter? Verses 1-20 are an extension of Chapter two.they show that both the Jews and...

No problem Mungo.... Enjoy your holiday.

From what I am to understand is that you believe Jesus was saying not to "bid" or "call forth" another on earth as you would God the Father. Is that correct? If so, Let's look at the text in question: Mat 23: 7 And greetings in the markets, and to be called of men, Rabbi, Rabbi. 8But be not...

Sorry to hear you agree with that T1mthy, because its absolutely false. You're woeks only justify you in the eyes of men, not God. Paul and James actually agree on that.

Mungo, my respect for you has increased greatly in the lasy few weeks, but please. I am not buying that. Paul called himself an ambassador of Christ and said he spoke in his stead. What he was saying meant his words had as much weight as if Jesus himself was there saying it himself. I...

Actually I do have to somewhat retract my statement. Not because of what Phoneman said, bu because legion actually did know who Jesus was.

Kelpha31, I haven't read those links, and don't intend to unless it has something useful to add to what I am about to say. I look at the verses you provided and not one of them justifies calling a priest "father". It seems what you have done is used a search engine and e erytime the word...

Actually there isn't a verse that says Satan or any devil believes Jesus offers salvation. They use James 2 and Acts 16 to try to make that point, but reading those verses carefully... They never say that.

Never said it was offered to the gentiles. Look ay Rev 7:4-8. It was offered to the 12 tribes of Israel. Only 1/12 to the tribe of Judah and 1/12 to Benjamin (who were also of the kingdom of Judah).

Probably not.... But I do understand where you are coming from. I hadn't previously looked this deeply into the subject, so I appreciate the conversation. Thanks

That's a very brief summary of what will hapoen, but yes... My studies show me the same thing. Perhaos the only thing I would disagree on is the notion that it will be a Jewish kingdom.. It'll be God's kingdom made up and governed by descendants of the 12 tribes. But only for a thousand years.

Consider my theory that Paul heard of the growth of Christianity in Rome from Prescilla and Acquilla. The Bible documents their being there and their being force out. They were also in Corinth with Paul. So Paul most likely heard about what was going on there from them. So the doctrinal...

Mungo, I'm sorry, but I don't agree based on what I have read in your post, the Bible and other references. Peter was matryed around 67 AD. You claim he returned to Rome around 56 Ad. Ok, fine. For the sake of the discussion I will entertain that notion. Also, that he was expelled in 49...

It really sounds like you are more of a supporter of thr law than i previously thought.

Mungo, I started to write a very detailed timeline of events. Halfway through it, I read what I wrote and found it pretty annoying. So, I'll spare you that annoyance! But my overall conclusion is that Peter being in Rome for 25 years consecutively is impossible. 25 total years is possible...

Kerwin, Yes, we as a society and a dispensation are wishy washy. That doesn't mean all individuals are. I am not and frankly, while i believe many are wrong on this forum, I don't see too many that are reeds shaking in the wind. Wrong? Yes. Wishy washy? No. Even the one I disagree with...

Kerwin, First off, I have never heard of the 7 laws of Noah. I did a quick wikipedia search and will look more into it. But they don't fit what James said in acts 15 (based on what I've read) again... I will look into it more. But in Gal 2.... Paul (according to the KJV) didn't say they...

Kerwin, That's fine. I do believe in "spiritual work" or "good works", and I believe they are thing pertaining to God's works. That even includes obedience which others like to hammer on. The difference is that i believe in obediance to the law of faith, most others speak of obedience to the...

Seriously... You don't know?

Well, I think I already did. Grace through faith doesn't work for everyone. It works for those only who have faith. If you don't know how or where to get faith then nothing Jesus did is going to work for you. It's a moot point, because whether or not you agree with me doesn't change the...
