Hi Oz, You have me a bit confused on your belief of this topic. You agree with Thayer's etymology of adelphos which is a brother, whether born of the same two parents or only of the same father or the same mother, but you then go on to suggest that Jesus had brothers that were born from Mary's...

To be honest....I laughed. If you hadn't clarified I would have wondered. Blessings

Can you put that in common English. Please? Mary

Hi, We are discussing Perpetual Virginity.

Dear GG, I believe you are the one who started the water baptism subject when you said, I understand the arguments for the water being the water of baptism, I just cannot accept it. I only responded to it. :) Some Protestants practice and accept the same baptism that Catholics do: Baptism...

Thank you. I usually do three strikes and your out. I gave you five. Love Mary

Hi GG, I do apologize. Here is the definition of allegedly: used to convey that something is claimed to be the case or have taken place, although there is no proof. I should accept your word as proof. However, proof is something that is visible. Your words aren't. The reason I say...

Hi twinc, To whom does the Holy Spirit speak thru? Mary

Dear dodging Stranger, Slavery is illegal, in this country. Not in all countries. If one can not obtain a slave, then HOW is their still slavery? I have done the research. I have presented my evidence. I think I understand why you won't answer my questions. When you sit down and really think...

Hi Oz, I am not disagreeing with your conclusion that Mary "could have had children with Joseph". The question at hand is did she. Since scripture only names Jesus as her child, I choose to agree with scripture. The ONLY evidence from historical writings is that she DID NOT have any other...

Hi, Where did I say you were against baptism? Mary

Hi dodging Stranger, God doesn't condemn slavery? God is ok with pre-teen boys and girls being sex slaves. Interesting! Slavery is not the evil that I and others make it out to be? Really? I wonder if the 13 year old sex slave agrees with you? Or the 13 year old girl who is forced into a...

My dear, Dear Oz, Why don't you answer the question? Because it would reveal your hypocrisy? Curious Mary

Hi Oz, That is a non-answer. I will answer for you: No, Marymog, I can not find anywhere in the NT that gives the names of Mary's other children. I, and greater theologians than you and, have presented evidence for the biblical AND non biblical (historical writings) evidence that they were not...

Hi Oz, If Augustine doesn't matter in this conversation then why does he matter when you use him (or any CF) to back up your beliefs on your website? Since I want to use him, he doesn't matter? Curious Mary

Hi GG, If we rely on "theologians" to help determine our beliefs then we have to decide WHICH ones. Do we just go with majority rules? Example: 51% of theologians believe the Real Presence doctrine therefor I have to believe it? What gives that 51% authority to determine what doctrine effects...

Hello Stranger, I get it. You don't have to tell me again. You are ok with slavery because the bible doesn't condemn it. But your only ok with slavery as long as your not the slave. Your a hypocrite. How does one obtain a slave? Which slave industry are you ok with? Human trafficking, forced...

Dear GG, I respect your wishes to end this conversation. However, I also think you misunderstood me and in all fairness I should have one more chance to clarify. I am agreeing with you that Nicodemus was referring to being born again (re-entering the womb)? That is why I said, "Nicodemus...

Dear bbyrd, Confess your sins to one another does not negate "if you forgive mans sins they are forgiven". One is a confession, the other is forgiveness. Therefor I agree with your statement: "that is nowhere near confess your sins, one to another"........So exactly what is your point? Yes...

Hi GG, If we look at the fullness of scripture and read what John1 (and Matthew) said about Jesus baptism we see that Jesus was baptized in water and the Spirit came upon Him. Later, in John3:5 , Jesus references his baptism in water and the Spirit descending on Him. Nicodemus seems confused...
