Well, to me, the first paragraph does sound angry and judgmental. The second paragraph I like because it's acknolwedging using your gifts for God and to God. The fact that people compromise their gifts doesn't mean they weren't from God. Elvis Presley received a great gift from God -- he...

Good stuff.... I want to focus on the quote I put in bold.... I think this is the main point of your post. It saddens me too, but I say there is nothing wrong with having peace in this world.... It comes for a brief time, so enjoy it. I think you'll be interested in this verse if you read...

Pretty interesting comments. I suppose one error -- or should I say thing you may have done first -- was to ask those on this board what they are looking for. Comfort, safety, assurance, eternal life, glory... All good answers and I can think of at least one verse that says those things are...

Marks says he could not except a few. You should also reread my post more carefully. I did indictate that it could've been he didn't want to. Mark 6:5 And he could there do no mighty work, save that he laid his hands upon a few sick folk, and healed them. Mar 6:6 And he marveled because of...

Going back in the thread, you had said "you can tell how good a doctor is by how many patients he has treated successfully." I simply don't believe that is true, and that's what these verses say. Eilijah and Elisha weren't known for their healings, but they did heal at least one. If you...

I didn't bring up his name. I mentioned scripture, which I assume you read, and you discussed him. Jesus said Elijah healed Naamen. It's there...

Look... I don't Bible jump. I have a copy of the KJV and that's what I go by. In faith I believe that's what God gave me to go by. I am not going to question it. I love breaking down words and studying other Bibles, and other translations, but I'm sticking to one.

Well, your wrong... Anyone can repent. Acceptance of the repentance is God's. The act of repenting should be discussed more on this board.... Repenting doesn't mean you give up sinning. Was Elijah a healer? Yes he was. The fact that you brought up his name tells me that you know he was...

When Paul said 'all things are lawful' he wasnt talking about immorality or murder or the like. Most of the NT is referring to mosaic laws and its regulations because the new congregations were still a little confused as to whether obedience to the mosaic law was a requirement or not. The holy...

To address your first question: Probably not many, and probably none of them are saved. They CAN be (and not by them quitting being a perv). The problem is that many of them are probably too caught up in themselves and serving the desires of the flesh to even THINK of Christ. The key is...

What should we do? We should ignore the sins of the flesh of others, and look at their spiritual side. Problem is, with so many fleshly problems, chances are they aren't very spiritual either.

Well, it could be, but not by verse 27 and 28. Veteran wrote: "You may not want that to be about pagan ideas of history, but that's where the dual sexual attributes for Adam is coming from. It certainly IS NOT coming from God's Holy Writ, that's for certain. I don't think you intend to make...

I cut a lot out of your post simply for the sake of brevity. I disagree with much of the Catholic doctrine and most of it's history. I don't like all their leadership practices nor how they (the Pope's and Cardinals) received such authority. However, one thing I do agree with them on is their...

Been under the weather, Vet, that's why I haven't gotten back to you. Last time I read your last post I said, "huh"? Will get back to this when I can think with a clear head.

Well, that's a good point, but what sins are expressly forbidden when the NT says "All things are lawful unto me", and "Where sin abounded, grace did much more abound"? I understand I'm giving partial quotes to verses, but I've discussed them in the past in full context. In short, we are told...

Not sure who "prev" are....

Yea, there is a reason for that.... A sick man needs a doctor. A well man don't.

Pegg, I don't believe that.... Never have even if I disagree with what Robbie's arguements, tactics and tantrums are. What would you day if we said, "but that is only if the pork chop eater turns away from the practice of eating pork chops. One must stop sinning intentionally if they are to...

I am not familar with pagan religions. However, in the first 5 chapters it is appearent that Adam was first created then Woman from Adam. As for any movements that push confusion between the sexes, it is really not part of this discussion, at least at my end. This is not so according to my...

So Prentis, where do you stand on this doctrine of love? I have a mixed feeling about you. I think you like it, but understand that doctrine and truth guide it. Do you hate that people -- especially preachers -- talk about it so much? I don't like it either, but I think it's an unpleasant...
