or that fish should eat all us! :waves: :oops:

Now you are sounding just like a literalist! A literal hermeneutic recognizes that many passages can and do have personal applications. Example JOnah rebelled and got swallowed by a big fish- applcation when we run from God eventually our sin swallows us and in the midst of our sin we repent...

Well Gods word said when god was finished creating, He called it all very good! 31 And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day. Those who believed God designed it to fail deny what god said about Creation. If He...

You are free to think what you wish, but the bible is describing a good woman for a man. Just because in ephesians the church matures to the conformity of Jesus does not make the virtuous woman the church. YOu make good personal applications but that is not the meaning of teh verses. What...

Well I am sorry what you feel about me is so wrong

Sorry but I do not think that. We strongly disagree but I don't think you are a stupid kid. And I was sincerely curious. but if you wish to end it then TTFN.

False analogy. God did not create a flawed system. The bible clearly says that. Satan fell sometime after the creation was complete. God gave Adam and Eve free will to choose to obey or disobey. They chose- not god for them.

Thats too bad. Before I ever picked up a theology book or owned a reference/study bible, I was told I was a dispensational 5 point believer. I had to find out what they meant! If you wish to do a summary list of things you believe dispensationalists believe that are not biblical, maybe we can...

This is what happens when you have multi generational lies about trusting the government to care for you when you retire (Social Security) SSSIU was never designed to be THE retirement fund for individuals but as its name says Social Security Supplemental Income. It was designed to supplement...

Just curious. Why do you spell Gods name as Yahavah.

So do you believe that when a believer dies now, his body goesd to teh ground to rot and his soul and spirit go to be with the Lord?

You are using the wrong word. It was not a temptation, but a test. satan was the one who tempted. Gt your words correct. God knew Adam and Eve would fall, but He did not coerce them to or force them to, He just knew they would. It was all part of His plan and teh counsel of the trinity in...

This is a statement said in ignorance. When one simply goes back to the original we see the perfect man is not plural, but singular. We means all believers and the perfect man refers to christ! Then you have a real problem for verses 10-31 are specifically about a virtuous woman. If it is...

Now do a word study and keep it in its immediate context. peace=salom = completeness, soundness, welfare, peace completeness (in number) safety, soundness (in body) welfare, health, prosperity peace, quiet, tranquillity, contentment peace, friendship of human relationships with God...

Well I was writing about literalists. But an allegorist, in a very brief summation say something like the following: "I know the Bible says this, but it really means this. '" or They will take a true account like Jonah and make it just a story and use what we can apply form the true account of...

They are like the Mormons who tell us that there were massive civilization here in South and Central America with massive buildings, ironclad ships etc. But there is not one scintilla of evidence to support that in archeology or from the preserved writings of the major civilizations. Thousands...

Unfortunately Matthew you do not realize that when Paul was speaking He was speaking in the generic "we". You are inconsistent in applying your hyper literal meaning to the text. If we are going to believe what you are saying about the rapture, then we have to also believe it was only for the...

It is true but you do not understand the grammar. Verse 18 contains no verbs at all in the original. It is because it is part of verse 19 and gains it strength from the verbs there. Also you cannot take this one verse apart from the topic of justification in the rest of the bible. We know...

Well it has to do with etymology and history. Just like we know Lub is Libya, Persia is Iran, Gomer is Turkey. Magog is the term used to describe the Caucasus Mountains. Ma-gogh means Gogs high tower. Magog as the sone of Japheth settled to the North of Israel which is modern Russia. Gog...

Around the same time. but not simultaneously like say 12:01 PM on A THURSDAY. After satan is bond into the abyss, the first resurrection occurs, and with that the giving of where the trib saints will reign. This all takes some time.
