I believe we must follow the science. It has been revealed by a variety of reliable data bases, and confirmed in all the most highly regarded scientific journals, that 100% of all people in a random sampling of 4 billion respondents to a questionnaire issued by a group with known links to...

Crazy Facts A pig's orgasm lasts 30 minutes. (O.M.G.!!!) A cockroach will live nine days without its head before it starves to death. (Creepy. I'm still not over the pig.) The male praying mantis cannot copulate while its head is attached to its body. The female initiates sex by ripping the...

It's only a promotion in your mind because you are approaching the whole discussion from a preconceived presumption that is not found in scripture. That Michael is a created being.

So humility and submission is a quality you willingly ascribe to Michael, but not Jesus?

Like Father, like Son. My Son is human, because I am human. The Son is God because His Father is God. We see that as true for most human children, but in the perfect heavenly realm, the likeness is perfect... Express image of the Father.

You view scripture through biased opinion. It's why you reject those scriptures that were offered you in other threads.

Lol. If you are serious about how people justify certain doctrines, and you ask the question, and they offer a number of resources and options, they aren't expecting you to read every one. Just pick one and see what is says. We've all been through this previously, all the scriptures have been...

Jesus said the weightier matters of the law are love, mercy and faith. So you are correct. Partly. He also said to the Pharisees and lawyers, that while being merciful, they shouldn't neglect the tithe. So like Jesus, yes, of the neighbors donkey/Toyota has fallen into a ditch, I would give...

Look up any dictionary and you will discover that Savior and Deliverer are synonyms. KJV 2 Samuel 22:2-4 2 And he said, The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; 3 The God of my rock; in him will I trust: he is my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower, and my refuge...

Got a "thus sayeth the Lord" for that?

I agree. See here... christianityboard.com/threads/jesus-is-our-truth-reward-and-faithfulness-so-we-can-lie-steal-and-fornicate.40639/page-9#post-1048309

I love my owl. Focusing on the prize, so close but so...

I would very much like someone explain how they are managing to keep the spirit of the law... For example not lusting... While at the same time unable to keep the letter... which is physical adultery. Perhaps one can murder without hate and be guiltless because they were keeping the spirit of...

The essay you cited said that we are given creative power. We will not be angels. Angels are a completely different form of creation... We shall remain human forever... Just as Christ is also and shall remain so.

Okay. My understanding is a little clearer. You believe in the A pre-existence of humans B universalism C that men can evolve in the after life to be gods in their own right and therefore D have a certain dominion over other life forms or parts of creation according to their worthiness. E...

Can you tell me why not, without any assumptions? In other words, based on scripture alone.

Mmmm. I was told something similar by my wife's cousin who is Mormon. I just assumed it was a genuine belief among Mormons. Now I'm confused that Jane is saying it's wrong. I don't know who's wrong... Us or the Mormons themselves?

Misconceptions by Mormons themselves, or their enemies? What does the LDS church teach then regarding this inheriting or receiving ones own planet, what is the truth of that concept?

That said, Adventists are firm absolute believers in the divinity and deity of Jesus. Without apology, without understating. Nor do we nor are we willing to compromise that stand in any way, and our teaching regarding Michael doesn't do that.

That is on the assumption that the archangel is a created angel. We as Adventists do not find in scripture any evidence that Michael, the archangel, is a created being. We do not reduce the deity or divinity of Christ by affirming His identity as chief of the angels. It is a natural title, Lord...
