It makes sense to me. :) For someone who does not believe the gospel and therefore has not received revelation from the Holy Spirit, anything we try to say will be a strawman argument with him. Now that I know that you are doing a PhD in those areas of science, you will get the drop on me every...

Of course it doesn't make sense to you, because the things of the Spirit of God come by revelation from God Himself to those who choose to believe the gospel. As long as you remain agnostic, you won't receive that revelation, because you have to choose to believe the gospel first. That's just...

Well, that's what many people in the US are saying, so it is not just me. But the slowness of really appreciating the seriousness of the virus is not limited to the US. Italy and Spain are suffering the consequences of not taking immediate action as well. Due to the prompt action that our NZ...

The first step to a clear understanding is to believe that the literal text of the Bible is totally true and that it is God's communication to mankind. Until you do that, you are not even in the ball park concerning truly understanding the Christian faith, let alone getting to first base. You...

You say you are not judging my friend, and at the same time say that he is naive and ignorant. If that is not judging I don't know what is! You got egg on your face with your contradiction.

I'm just referring to the old guy in a US hospital letting people know that he received a $100,000 bill for his hospital treatment after getting the coronavirus.

I understand that, and I am not judging you, but merely repeating what the Bible says about those who choose not to believe the gospel. You are identifying as agnostic, and this is saying that you know what the gospel says but you don't believe it. This is why you can't find satisfactory...

It is not what I meant at all. I was quoting Paul. He said that if anyone sought to be justified by keeping the law, then grace would be no more grace for him and that Christ would be of no effect for him. Paul said that no one will be justified by keeping the law. He said that it is by...

Well, you are pretty well convinced of your position on this, so that ends any input from me.

I don't know what version of the Bible you are using. It must be the Reversed Version! :-)

I said to Gerhard that observance of the law means that grace is no more grace. His response was vitriolic and right over the top with his accusative rant at me. It seemed to come out of nowhere and quite unexpected. I found it shocking that a guy can change his mood from friendly to totally...

What Marcion missed was that the God of the Old Testament was actually the pre-incarnate Jesus, the Second Person of the trinity. The Father is an invisible Spirit and no man has seen Him at any time, therefore, Jesus was the YHWH of the Old Testament. Marcion did not see that the Old...

The demons know the Bible from cover to cover, more than we do. They believe every literal word of it, and it makes them tremble because they know they can never be saved. This is because saving faith is a work of the Holy Spirit in us. A demon can decide to profess Christianity like many...

This is old news buddy! There were guy going into the Galatian churches teaching the same things you are telling us here, and Paul said they were false apostles teaching another gospel. He said anyone preaching a gospel other what he preached (grace through faith in Christ) let him be cursed...

Are you ok?

Did you see what he said to me? Totally off the wall - a shocking response.

Yep. I got it

Did you know that Paul says the police are the servants of God and they don't carry their weapons in vain?

I'm not SDA. I am a Reformed Puritan Presbyterian Bible believing Christian.
