Your avatar looks like something an American native would mimic. But you're going to tell me it's Australian right?

Hahaha, no, I feed all the birds in my back yard so they're all very friendly. Or tending that way.

Ummm. Good question. I think if my memory serves me well it is a Himalayan vulture thingy.

Your quotes of Ignatius merely reveal how quickly the church began to descend into apostasy after the early church apostles died. And Paul warned this would be so. Praise God that elsewhere there were faithful servants willing to carry the torch of truth throughout the world. Relying on man for...

Okay, now I see where you're going with this. Yes, we limit the power of God in our lives by our own unwillingness to trust Him. We don't believe He wants us to live in righteousness, and so we settle for living as defeated victims of our own unbelief. Point being we need to be willing to live...

So far so good. Becoming a little concerned. I always start to worry when people speak of God's sovereignty and power, as if God uses His sovereignty and power in drawing mankind into His kingdom. Jesus revealed the true nature of the Godhead... Of a Father who gave His own precious Son to...

He didn't come only to die methinks. I believe He came for another very important purpose... To reveal the true character of His Father. To this very day, Satan has succeeded in convincing man that God is severe, judgemental, harsh, unyeilding, selfish. And since the garden, man had made God in...

Actually, no, I could never live in the south island... Way to cold. I lived just out of a small town in the Waikato named Putaruru.

I'm not sure what story you are referencing here....

Her work merely fills in gaps, the scriptures themselves remain as they are, but given extra light if you will

@amadeus hi brother, hope all is well with you and your wife. I read through this thread and find it fascinating and can't for the life of me understand how I missed it first time around. It was an interesting conversation you had with @Enoch111 and @bbyrd009 . Some very deep questions... Was...

Lol. Logged off, tried to sign in on new device, but password didn't work. Tried for a couple of weeks, whatever password and whatever combination, nada. The email system doesn't work, so the only way to communicate again with the forum in any way is by opening another account. Starting again...

Then you need to find an explanation for the reaction of all the merchants and priests and temple guards to Jesus. Both in the temple and in the garden. I'm not denying your overall perspective, for indeed Jesus came to show is that we, in our humanity, can do as He did and overcome sin. By...

How can it have been the Father who appeared to men at various stages of history when Jesus Himself said, no one has seen the Father at any time? It was Jesus, the Son of God, who stood upon Mt Sinai and gave the law to Moses. Who allowed Moses to see a small glimpse of His back parts, but not...

Where I came from the winter was characterised by regular -5 frosts. Sometimes two weeks or more non stop. The days were nice though but would seldom rise above 10. Snow about an hour's drive away 4 months of the year. An hours drive from the coast.

Despite phonemans descriptive embellishments, the principle behind the events remain unchanged... That Jesus did have a Divine authority and that at times was on full display. Not for his own benefit, but in defense of righteousness and at times flashed through inadvertently even, maybe, like...

Thank you, although I am at a complete loss as to how the name of my church managed to find it's way in there. Most peculiar. I need to take more care in editing before posting.

Being from NZ I can confidently say you really only have two weeks of winter here. The Autumn here is like NZ summer, as is spring. Summer here, at least in Melbourne, is like a full season of the very hottest days in NZ on steroids.

You use masking tape. Sky divers have the same problem... They use anti fogging stuff they use.

Quote...Your French ancestors (mine went to England) would be rolling over in their graves hearing you deny what so many died knowing. Why is that nutty and a mockery? It isn't difficult to understand. I know all about the French Calvinists called Huguenot. Like I said, my French ancestors went...
