I'm one of those who don't understand why you think the OT and the Bible is boring. It must be the language and the fact that you have to read with understanding. It doesn't seem boring to me when God killed everyone but eight souls. It doesn't seem boring to me when two angels walked into...

There was no angel of death in exodus. That was the Lord doing all of that. He may have had help from the destroyer, but there was no angel of death.

Funny thing is that I don't recall there being an angel of death mentioned in the Bible.... Not the KJV at least..... I see the angel of the Lord killing lots of people, but no "angel of death".

Remember what Jesus said about what a little leaven did?

It seems to me that the number one issue one should have when finding a Church is whether they are preaching the truth, and if they are willing to preach the entire Bible. In other words, are there some subjects in the Bible that they would just stay away from? If so, then that would be a...

I see what you are saying, but I work in the public school system (middle school ) and the kids don't seem to care about Pokemon anymore. Now it's skrawny pale vampires! Just like in 1985! Yea, still the occult, but the real demon is marketing to you.g folks.

Yea, just last week I asked ten people on the street that question. "Did Jesus send anyone to minister evil? " three said yes four said no two asked if I had any spare change and one looked at me like I was an idiot. So yes, 30% of the people ipolled think Jesus did that, and if you believe...

Pokeymon does glorify magic and all that, but I had similar problems with my step brothers over women. Before that, we fought over personal belongings like rock androll shirts. It seems more of a matter of what you percieve is valuable, not necessarily the charm of pokerman. Kids today don't...

The word used is tribute, which doesn't always mean tax. It also calls the person in charge a minister of God. You can't get more clearer then that.

Glad you agree with me Veteran but no Moses wasn't a pagan. He was actually one of the people this chapter talks about.

Romans 13 isn't talking about governments. Its talking about preachers.

Pretty much what I think Jiggyfly.... That's a good point Tim from PA... I would expect most folks here to score high.

I stand corrected about calling you a whiner. Again, Augustine, Polycarp and Lewis as well as many others you may bring up in the future were great thinkers and scholars. I don't ever mean to de emphasize them nor their works. I wish more of them were around in our day. But as I said, they...

We are discussing when the Bible was written and the importance of it in doctrine, Informer... Not the value of scholastic achievement. I know, it's a long thread and it takes some reading to get the whole picture. But you are right... God used commen men to carry his word. Except for that...

Aspen wrote: "Um, Did Moses write the part where God buried him too?" Don't be silly. I am going under the assumption that you know Bible history. It is believed he wrote the first four books and the later parts of the fourth were picked up by someone else. I assume you know that and...

No prism.... I don't have any suggestions. I however, feel your pain. I have loved ones who have walked away from God. It does hurt. It hurts real bad at times!

Where are the originals? I don't know.... Probably destroyed through time. But do we not have transcripts of them? I own a Bible and it contains the books he wrote. Who's going to read them? Well, I am and I did! Moses must've written them down for some reason. It could be and is likely...

I am not claiming they are literal events, but they could've been. Who knows? I'm more apt to believe them than some of the doctrines of Catholism, that's for sure. So we have the parable of a mustard seed in Matthew 13. A man planted it, and it grew into a great tree. It's a small seed...

When did I ever call you a whiner? Yes, I complained about you not using scripture. You don't seem to take them as serious as I do. I believe they have absolute authority when it comes to doctrine. I didn't coplain when you cited a source (and I never said I didn't like it). What I did do...

Who's to say they didn't happen? And if they didn't, does that mean Job didn't happen?
