(Luke 17:20-21) "And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation: Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you." (Matt. 12:28) Christ tells the...

No, your complaint here is the broken record. Just because one believes we are no longer under law, doesn't mean we excuse and love our sins with no intent to repent of them. It is a gross assumption on your part. Stranger

Since when do you take unbelieving Jews, and atheists opinion concerning what you believe about Israel...or anything else for that matter? I have no doubt that you must interpret 'Israel', when spoken of in the New Testament, as now being the Church. Do you? If so, why? Stranger

They were righteous before God first, which can only be by faith. Because they were under law, their conduct would be so ordered. Walking and being blameless in the commandments and ordinances of the Lord means their walk was blameless before God. It doesn't mean they didn't break the law...

You do recognize that the Law was still in place in (Luke 1:5-6). During Christ's earthly walk the Law was in place. Much of what Christ said was to a people under the Mosaic Law, as He was. But, that ended with the Cross, death, burial, and resurrection of Christ. Stranger

No it's not. It's a perfect application. The real gift of tongues is a supernatural gift. Where does it say foreigners must understand the gift of tongues? How silly is that. Your last statement, as others, makes no sense. Stranger

If the leaders of the church do not know if there is anyone in the church with the gift of interpretation, then they need to step down as leaders. These things are not done in a vacuum. Paul doesn't say it is prayer time in the church. He says in (1 Cor. 14;28) that the one with the gift...

Interesting reading. What is it suppose to prove? And why does he call Quantrills men, 'jayhawkers'? That is a terrible error. Stranger

Yes, you want the event of Lawrence isolated from what went before that. I pointed out the actions of others because they were the reason for the Lawrence raid. You haven't proved that McCorkle lied. How was my comment of 'original source' misguided. It is an original source. The Fifty...

No, you didn't do anything but go to some link somewhere. When I commented on my source, McCorkle, I gave you the exact quotes from the book and gave you the page number. You give me nothing. Why. Because you don't know what your talking about. Your knowledge is based first of all, on...

Mary, Mary, the condition of yankee Christianity during the time of the war between the states should be of no surprise to you a history teacher. It is not me that is a judge, it is history. And I refer you to post #11. Give me what your man says. Give me the source where it came from...

Well if you think there were bad men on both sides then you must allow the yankee badmen to be revealed for what they were. Cause/affect is very real in war time. Yet you want to isolate the Confederates actions from any thing that went before. And, I didn't dismiss the actions of...

So? Those with the real gift of tongues do not mimic those who falsely exercise the gift of tongues. Again, just because there are false prophets doesn't mean the real prophets don't exist. Stranger

Again, what I said is it is not up to the one with the gift of tongues to provide an interpreter. That is up to God. Stranger

If there is no interpreter then the gift of tongues is not exercised in the assembly. Which means there is no gift of tongues operating in the assembly without an interpreter. The one with the gift of tongues simply keeps it between himself and God. As I said, false prophets does not mean...

I not only read the book, I have the book. Give me the page numbers you are talking about. And what 'historical record' are you talking about from Banzhof? Stranger

Well by all means present what Cordley wrote. You ask who should be more believeable? First of all, yankee churchman were just as bias as anyone else. And the yankee christianity had morphed into a 'social christianity' instead of a Bible believing Christianity. The Jesus Christ of...

I do remember what I wrote, but I want you to be specific as to the post you are addressing. And as you can see, my reply in post #227 was in reply to your statement in #226, where you said, "you prefer to point to other bad behavior instead of acknowledging the behavior of your hero". In...

Just as it says. If there is no one with the gift of interpretation, then the one with the gift of tongues is to be silent in the church. But he can still exercise his gift between himself and God. Stranger

Comparing Scripture with Scripture is good, but ones method of interpretation will determine what you believe that Scripture to be saying. And even though some may have no theological training, they still have a method of interpreting the Scripture. When are verses to be interpreted literally...
