I tell you what... This thread has gone way way off the original track of Rock, Gates, and Keys with questions on tons of stuff from a very wide variety of scriptures... Yawl have made me stop and think harder than I've had to in a while switching gears to remember the things I've studied. Not...

Only if that is the person's focus... If they wish to get along and understand how we aren't the enemy against all that is holy then there can be peaceful coexistence.

I have never heard that phrase before. It was first 12 and then @72. Both sendings were given completely different missions. And that's also important. Now the gospel accounts actually differ... Pay close attention to Mark's account because it genuinely belongs to Peter...Mark penned it...

Westcott and Hort and Eadie and Lightfoot were definitely all apostolic in nature. Every last one of them had to leave the Catholic Church and join in with other groups. Not a one of them were looking for fame and fortune...none of them tried ernestly to be in the positions they ended up in...

Sorry about that... Too many people all posting at the same time and I miss stuff... There's a cross between the two books of the Gospel accounts. Luke's Gospel is written to people of Greek/Roman society. Matthew's account is written to the rich/elite of Israeli society... Mark's account was...

The SBC (an organization larger than the Catholics in SOME ways) is always had people pointing fingers at the president of the organization. Because they believe that the president of the organization actually has some sort of power to do anything. The only power the president of the SBC has...

Ummmmm if you know the history of these people you really wouldn't say that.

This is absolutely untrue... Rabbi weren't necessarily Levites. They could have come from any of the 12 tribes. You of course are trying to support the Catholic Church's theological position...but misrepresentation of known anthropology and History isn't going to help your case.

One of my favorite lines of a really strange movie really fits this situation. (Cowboys versus Aliens) God don't care who you have been...He cares about who you are. And even though it's a sci fi movie...it's very true.

Well we aren't exactly sure of when John wrote his Revelation...or his precise date of death. I know that they have cut up the poor guy and have his fingers in scepters so overly glorified that they look like street lights... But the problem with John's life end is that it will provide dates...

Ummmm The second you quote Luke (Book of Acts) you are arguing against the line of succession authority. (As well as Paul) And history has shown that there have been greatly appreciated Apostles that have nothing to do with the Catholic Church's position of succession. Where some people like...

Usually when a person has a problem in the home a friend is called...but they had to call the police and ambulance? They should be the last resort...not the first. And that right there is telling me that they have a huge problem. Even during this time of pandemic and quarantine I could easily...

The "Pharisees" looked good...seemed to act right and did all the right things. They didn't self appoint themselves as spiritual leaders of their respective communities. They had verified charity projects and good works. They also knew the Law and were very careful about following it. They were...

Some people simply can't handle the stress. And it sounds like the man is becoming completely unravelled. What does it profit a man who gains the whole world but yet loses his soul?

I wish you were online so we could talk to you a bit more... I got the general idea but there's more to ask you specifically and talk with you about. Such as about faith... About your conversations with God About the things you do for employment Things you and your wife does outside of the...

Flu vaccines are actually fairly effective but the catch is that you need about 10 years in a row of taking them consistently... Then you actually are immune to the flu. There are many strains of them. They are working on a better vaccine that covers all of them...but it's like 7 injections over...

Joshua was a unique leader for them. He wasn't exactly one of the Judges as someone else was put in that role. He also wasn't exactly a prophet either. He was a military commander and led them to many victories. But Moses also was a military commander as taught to him when he was an adopted...

Deuteronomy 18:15-19 That's where Moses says that Jesus will be his successor.

Almost... He proved that the man violated the tenth commandment about coveting. But more importantly... Jesus was seen giving gifts that only God could give to ANYONE who recognized him as the Messiah or God himself... EVERY time... From the blind man who called out "Seed of David" to the...

Yes...I've been here longer than you. ROFL.
