Barth was a product of the 'Enlightenment era'. He was not a great product of Protestant faith. If the Pope regarded him as great.....that should tell you something. Apparently it does not. The inspired Scripture tells us how to be found right before God and it furnishes us with all we need...

How's that Bible study goin? It's easy when you're the only one stating one view. No need to answer others questions or response. Just dictate what you believe without accountability. Stranger

Gandhi would not say he is a Christian, which he wasn't. But you want to say he is. Who says Gandhi demonstrated a profound understanding of the Sermon on the Mount? You? You who say David was not a good role model? You? Stranger

Pacifists are cowards living off of what others have sacrificed to gain, in my most humble opinion. Stranger

But the cities Joshua conquered were inhabited. The Bible says so. You disagree? Well, Tertullian did not write Scripture. Did he? Christ did not take away the sword. (Luke 22:38) " And they said, Lord, behold, here are two swords. And he said unto them, It is enough." He didn't say...

No, I disassociate myself from being Israel. I do not ignore the teaching of the Apostles. Rom. 9:6-9 ...they are not all Israel, which are of Israel...in Isaac shall thy seed be called..They which are the children of the flesh, these are not the children of God: but the children of promise...

junobet I do believe in the verbal inspiration of the Bible. And I believe it as Christians do and should, not as muslims. You mention the Bible's authors and editors. Who are these editors? You say the Bible is human though divinely inspired and because it is human, it is not all...

Only because you assume there is no rapture. I believe there is a rapture, thus the Church at this time is in Heaven. Yes those who have died as believers are in Heaven. Yes, all who have died in Christ come back with Him at the Second Coming as well as all those who were raptured. Stranger

No, as a Christian I am a Christian. I am a child of God. I am not an Israelite of God. Stranger

I personally don't see it as off topic as it involves both your and my response to the verses we are using. I do see the Bible as one Book. It has one Author, God. It is composed of many books by many human writers, but they were inspired by the Holy Spirit, making the Author God. So a man...

Yes, that is a great song. Thanks. I enjoy the old country music. Lot of Blue Grass. Most of the new I don't listen to unless it's made like the old. The Southern country music comes from the Bible Belt, which we are known as. So it always involves Gospel music as the Southern people...

keras Your verses prove nothing against the rapture. Answer my questions in reply #58 and then I will be interested in answering yours. Stranger

The word 'heaven' is mentioned in Rev. 4:1. And John and others are still there in Rev. 7. And Rev. 7:9-17 is an heavenly scene about the Throne of Christ . So you have people in heaven, the Church who has been raptured, and you have multitudes dying on the earth during the tribulation and...

'Best academics' or 'higher criticism' comes against the Bible. It creates a liberal view whose base is unbelief. It takes away from the Bible. Much like what it's contributed to your view that only the Gospels and Acts are the closest in being historical. I agree. The Bible does not...

"Where the Soul never Dies" by Hank Williams Stranger

Well, I'm always learning. And I do look forward to the time of fulfillment of God's plan to have a people in His land. I just disagree with you on who is the people in that land. That doesn't mean we are not brothers in Christ. We just have different views of end time events. Stranger

I don't conflict with Scripture. All who are in Christ are the Chruch. I've said that before. But the Church is not Israel. I don't confuse the 144,000 who are Israel, with those in Heaven above. Where did I do that? In Rev. 7 John is still in Heaven viewing an earthly scene. That scene...

Yes, the word is there and was not added. Modern translations have 'changed' it. So, as I said, your REB added, not the KJV. What's the context that caused the REB to change the Bible? Nothing is said about the people on earth being Christian in Rev. 7:4-8. They are said to be Israel, from...

Why do I bother with prophecy? Because God gives it to us to know. My assurance of Heaven has nothing to do with it. Stranger

The KJV didn't add 'and'. It is there. What year was your REB translation made? Thus who changed? Yes God can do as He pleases, and it pleased Him to rapture Enoch and Elijah to Heaven. Just as He will the Church. Rev. 7:1-3 may be an earthly scene but John is still in Heaven,with the...
