    Christians and the Law of Moses

    Okay, fine. Tell us how they fit into your life. What part, if any, do they play in the context of your relationship with Jesus?

    How is your rejection of God's commandments taken care of?

    Edward Fudge: Hero Or Heretic?

    Earlier on I expressed my antipathy against the concept of eternal torment based on God's character. No-one has answered this, nor attempted to. I'm not surprised at this, because everything we know of God or have been informed of Him in His word cries out in objection and loathing to the idea...

    If You Believe Your Denomination Is...

    I only have to go back 130 odd years to Pope Pius and his syllabus of errors to confirm the mind and heart of Catholicism toward true religious liberty. Freedom to become Catholic, and a curse upon anyone who didn't, and an implied promise that laws would be enacted to prevent such a thing if...

    I wasn't actually meaning the ten commandments in that context no. The change to the priesthood with regarding law is related to the law of Moses... Those laws associated with the services of the sanctuary. As explained in Hebrews, Jesus was not born of the tribe of Levi, therefore by law could...

    Actually not quite. For reasons I won't go into here, they measure it from Thursday night... From the garden. Being in the heart of the earth doesn't mean dead necessarily.

    Edward Fudge: Hero Or Heretic?

    You are still equating life and death as similes instead of opposites. That second death... What is it... KJV Revelation 20 9 And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them.

    Edward Fudge: Hero Or Heretic?

    KJV Ezekiel 33 11 Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord GOD, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel? So what is it. How do we understand what God is saying...

    Are you sure we're not agreeing?

    Indeed, the law was changed. But how, and why? For the priesthood being changed, there is of necessity a change made in the law. What was the change in the priesthood that necessitated a change in the law...and what was that change???

    Edward Fudge: Hero Or Heretic?

    You still haven't yet shown from scripture that humans are immortal...and to separate soul from body is unbiblical...even Greek paganism. And in any other context semantics would be "proof text". Maybe we won't agree. I feel sorry for you that the God you believe in is capable of what you are...

    Edward Fudge: Hero Or Heretic?

    And an ongoing mindset inherited from the dark ages when those who believed such things thought it appropriate to give heretics a "taste" in order to deter them from continuing in their "apostasy". Tis a scary thing when we consider that the christ they believe in is the one whom they seek to...

    Edward Fudge: Hero Or Heretic?

    My greatest objection to eternal torment as a concept is the picture it provides as to the character of God. And it offends me greatly that Christians who would in any other context promote God as loving and gracious, merciful and just, in this particular context cast Him off as a tyrant with a...

    Edward Fudge: Hero Or Heretic?

    I'm not much of a wordsmith or English grammatical expert, but I think what you have posted above would be called a false equivalence. Allow me to demonstrate... I drove my car into the wreckers, with spluttering and belching smoke and grinding of parts....there to abide forever. It doesn't mean...

    Edward Fudge: Hero Or Heretic?

    Except you cannot prove this from scripture. Scripture does not show the lake of fire as being eternal at all. Scripture says it can't be put out. Well, the fires here in Victoria couldn't be put out either. Many of them went out by themselves because they ran out of fuel. Not being able to put...

    Stop being so combative and follow the conversation. You may learn something. The "no" I offered as a reply was to a question put to me by @BOWnQUIVER , as it seems to misunderstand my earlier response. So first, you've butted in on a conversation that was interpersonal, and second, your...
