Can you try that again? I can't see any parallel to the two threads. It seems you were saying that Abe being told to move to a new neighborhood was an end times prophecy.... and I was asking if things God said back then still carried any weight today.

I am curious if anyone here disagrees with this concept: (For simplicity it is wrapped up in the final sentence.) Obviously there are some kinds of discontinuity between Bible-time provisions and our own day. We should stop to analyze them. Some of these discontinuities are redemptively...

Most Divinity students have a goal in mind of being hired by a church affiliated with the school they attend. Despite any high-sounding ideals, they are pursuing the same strategy any other college student seeks.... making themselves qualified to attain a successful position within a desired...

Unfortunately, in the "church system" we have cultivated, a young man cannot feed even himself, let alone a wife and future children unless he accepts selling ,to some degree, to that system.

I think we first have to accept that "ordained" also means indoctrinated into a particular system of belief through which the usually fairly young and impressionable man has been both taught and hired as a representative of that particular denomination. In other words, "You have been hired and...

Now, that is going to take one heckuva lot more explaining.

I suspected you were a bit weird, but sitting around conversing with your food??? LOL

At least you seem to have a beginning of understanding what "faith" is.

Papayas and/or papaya juice. Several articles here: https://www.google.com/search?sourceid=navclient&ie=UTF-8&rlz=1T4GGHP_enUS810US810&q=Papayas+for+stress&gws_rd=ssl

"No", you specifically used "The Gospel." And that was not the subject of the passages. Either you said what you meant, or you didn't.

Yet, you quote "scientists" at every turn to validate your beliefs of what they have told you is so. LOL If you are going to object, at least be real about it.

I'm pretty sure "The Gospel" was never mentioned in those verses you listed.

Obviously, to you, they are going to be whatever you choose to decide they are. But the answer to your question was plainly stated by CoreIssue in post #2.

He is asking you, not for an answer, but to consider the ridiculousness of even considering such an notion. Of course God would not do that.

And...………. It may surprise you, but a lot of that hassle will come — not from God — but very definitely, from "the church."

If I ever thought I had to limit myself to listening to nothing but "authorized" Christian music, I think I would go nuts.

Here is the link: Defending Homosexuality

It has always been so laughable to me when people try their best to sound "Holy" by claiming they "only read the Bible Literally", when we all know that is just a sad attempt at a smoke screen. Even an eight-year old child can name plenty of places in the Bible that all of us know we do not...

"No", it simply means you are not reading (and are not applying) the words literally.

In using the example of a camel being unable to go through the eye of a needle, a literal reading of the Bible confirms that no one who is rich will go to Heaven. So, the only conclusion a Literalist could reach is that Abraham (a rich man) and many others also, are not in Heaven, and never...
