    The Two Babylons: A Case Study in Poor Methodology

    Ahhhhh, how is it that so many feel threatened by Hislop's thesis written all those years ago? (1853) Truth has a way of pricking the conscience irrespective of how much time goes by since it was stated.

    Did You Vote?

    You spin off in your own imagination Wrangler ...and feel threatened when it is questioned. What sort of peace and joy....gentleness and self control is that?

    Politicians

    It's a complex metaphor Jack.....and if you had the desire to understand, you would. However, it appears to me you are content to spit out the same ole rhetoric....and in so insisting, it is hidden from you.

    Politicians

    Like I said, it's for you to figure out.....just like the writings of the old and new testament are for you to figure out. Figure it well or you might find yourself unwittingly cheering on, even voting for the opposition. Oils ain't oils, yer know!

    This is golden!!! SNL skit backfires on Kamala...see how it helped Trump

    Those who find fault are aplenty. They found fault with Jesus in their small thinking. There is one known as The Accuser because that's his chosen occupation. He justifies himself and accuses others......and those under his sway follow the same pattern. Who do we align ourselves with?

    Keys to Understanding the True Gospel

    You quoting Ex 22:24 with the highlighting in red, in the context of our conversation f2f, indicates you haven't heard a word I've said.

    Keys to Understanding the True Gospel

    My answers have been given multiple times. So what is the problem? The problem is you only hear what you want to hear....and not what is being communicated. Was Jesus unclear in his communication? I don't think so. So why wasn't he understood? I would say it was because the paradigm of his...

    Keys to Understanding the True Gospel

    I hear you saying that God was then complicit with sinful men by having his Son murdered. This make no sense.....except for those who deem God to be schizophrenic.....one who is both good and evil.

    Keys to Understanding the True Gospel

    You insist on understanding the nature of God through the lens of fallen man including the Prophets. Those who had Jesus killed rationalised from the same base. You dismiss God's revelation of himself in Jesus as 'inconsequential' or secondary. The quotes you choose and the conclusions you draw...

    Keys to Understanding the True Gospel

    Men have always blamed God for disasters. Does that make God responsible? Jesus tells us there is one who is out to steal, kill and destroy. He will gladly do just that when we insistently push away God's protection. Have we forgotten these words, 'while we were yet sinners Christ died for the...

    Keys to Understanding the True Gospel

    Love is not punitive; love allows choices without coercion. Moses wrote and attributed to God the various disasters which fell upon men, including Sodom and Gomorrah and the Great Flood. These are not attributes of the God Jesus came to reveal/ represent. We want to know the true Character of...

    Keys to Understanding the True Gospel

    The wrath of God is not as you imagine it to be, ie punitive. The context of the above verses explains God's wrath. It amounts to God giving them over to the choices men insist on pursuing. It is not punitive, it is consequential. This shifts everything about God's justice as it has been...
