I have some crazy dreams at times, so I think I got a taste of it!

You wouldn't want to see me in speedos!!!!

And...?

My mother was into UFOs and all that stuff. I think she had "Chariots of the Gods" on her bookshelf. When I was 14, I got sick and was in bed for three weeks. I read many of the books on mum's bookcase, and, believe me, she was into some crazy stuff!

Gnostic teaching says that Jesus wasn't a real person, but some kind of "phantom".

Absolutely! The Scripture says that "All sin and iniquity shall be forgiven of men". The plan of salvation was especially designed for people like Hitler, and others like him. Consider the Apostle Paul. He persecuted the church, imprisoned and murdered innocent people because they had...

Potentially, but not all will accept God's invitation to believe the gospel - unless you believe in universalism.

I appreciate your very interesting post! Mormonism teaches that God the Father is some kind of humanoid rather than the Bible description of Him being a Spirit who has "been seen of no man". It all goes along with the crazy teaching that a man and a woman can have a celestial marriage, go to...

He didn't suffer for Hitler's sins, because God already knew that his name is not written in the Book of Life. The "sins of the whole world" is written to show that the invitation to embrace Christ is open to all with no restriction. Although God knows about all those who will embrace Christ...

Of course it would come up in the official literature of the LDS church. One has to have been converted to Mormanism and has been promoted to higher levels before being introduced into some of the deeper teachings of the church. I think these "deeper" doctrines are part of the central Temple...

It is interesting that in John Bunyan's "Pilgrims Progress", when his main character was undergoing conviction of sin and knowing that he had to get right with God, he was despairing because he couldn't find the way, and Evangelist came along and showed him the way to the Strait Gate that led to...

There are different branches of Mormanism, and there certainly is teaching supporting the Father having sex with Mary. Perhaps you are referring to a branch of Mormanism that doesn't teach that. I can understand that the public "face" of the LDS church wouldn't want prospective "recruits" to...

Given that those who believe the gospel and are saved, are elect through the foreknowledge of God (1 Peter 1:2), God knew right from the start who was going to be saved. Now, I am not supporting predestination here. There is a difference between foreknowledge through the omniscience of God...

Mormon doctrine states that the Father had sex with Mary and impregnated her, resulting in the birth of Jesus. Interesting. According to this doctrine, I would guess that Mormons would reject the virgin birth of Christ, because if the Father had sex with Mary, then she would no longer be a...

That's right. It is all summarised in the New Testament gospels, epistles, and Revelation. Once the last Apostle died, there is no further revelation or added doctrine. All the doctrines that have been instituted after the last Apostle died are not inspired by the Holy Spirit, but are the...

What was Paul's answer to the Philippian jailor when the guy asked the same question: "What must I do to be saved?' Notice that Paul did not say, "Join the true church and obey everything that Pope Peter says."

It is interesting to note that Jesus said this: "He who has My commandments and keeps them, it is he who loves Me. And he who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and manifest Myself to him" (John 14:21). At the time He said this, all they had were Moses and the Prophets...

How do you explain John 1:1? "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was with God in the beginning. 3 Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. 4 In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. 5...

Of course, your response is characterised by subtlety and methological aspects of the central argument that carries with it weight when it is balanced by theories which are either refutable or irrefutable as the case may be. What could have value is the mention of variables that accentuate the...

I wonder if there is a confusion between two people with similar usernames posting on the thread? I don't know whether there is the possibility of changing your username to separate yourself from the other guy who has blinkers on concerning anything that is not supportive of the RCC. There...
