Very plainly, "No you don't." If there is even ONE other option (and there always is) then you are not constrained to do what someone else tells you that you have to do because of the way THEY have decided God's word reads.

No! A woman has to remain the subservient, sub-human the organization that YOU yourself have chosen to place yourself under the subjection of, says they must remain. Don't try to lay the blame on any organism YOU have chosen to remain a part of. You knew who and what they were before you...

Before we look at specific belief systems and teachings about the Bible, we must consider the difference between the two most prominent subcultures within the larger Christian culture—academic Christianity and popular Christianity. From an anthropological standpoint, all cultures contain two...

The apostle Paul said, “Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable — if anything is excellent or praiseworthy — think about such things and the God of peace will be with you” (Philippians...

For those of you with little or no knowledge of the book, here is one passage that demonstrates why I like it so... Jesus and Mack are just lying by the dock, looking up at the stars: Stillness had fallen like a blanket, and all Mack was really aware of was the sound of water lapping up...

You already have both of her comments in the email I sent you. Messing with more on this forum is just too much of a hassle since only a few of us seem to care about this anyway.

No one really knows, but if they do....... all problems solved.

I almost forgot I had this. Interesting, no? The Universality of the Golden Rule in the World Religions Christianity All things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye so to them; for this is the law and the prophets. Matthew 7:1 Confucianism Do not do to others what you...

Because they have been told to by the media they watch.

I just tried to post Crystal's comments (a VERY small portion of the stuff I gathered) and this forum rejected it as "too many words."

First, its not my blog. I don't have one. And if you don't have time to click a page ( not that I ever suggested that) then you would never have the time to wade through the 39 pages I have..... and it would probably be more like 380 pages if I put my answers to them. So don't sweat it. This...

Is being a liar a sin? Every president (in fact every politician in the world) has lied.

I found this theory interesting...… except that they seem to have forgotten that everything else would also be traveling just as fast...… in effect, negating any relative differences in speeds, compared one with another.

I don't do "The Cloud." Sorry. It falls in the same category as FB and Ancestory.com, to me..... and I avoid them all.

Thank you Guys. One thing I think we all tend to miss is that this is not the Bible, and it was never intended that we focused Bible-Birddogs would run here to get our Theology. I have something from a blog that I wish more people than just Butterfly had asked to look at. This woman, Crystal...

Now, the "freewill" part. If the most vile creature that ever lived is confronted by God, is not His first statement going to be "You are forgiven.... do you want to accept my sacrifice for that?" Or is it going to be judgement based on the guy's past? We are not talking about any scene of...

So you didn't see the initial and ongoing theme of Mack having to learn to forgive? That was what Papa started out telling him the whole weekend was about, was it not?

Well, if you come up with a solution, I'll mail it to anywhere you say.

Focusing on just one part, what did you think of the cave scene?

It was about a hundred and fifty mile trip (one-way) from Northern Galilee to Jerusalem. And those God-fearing Jews made that hot, dusty, dangerous trip (about 10 days of steady walking) for one purpose, only. Because they loved God and were doing as they understood Him to have commanded. I...
