Irrelevant to me way down here in Upsidedown land, a world away from the Middle East.

Sorry. It's all over. When you kick the player instead of the ball, you get a red card and are sent off!

If you go to the woods and see bear tracks heading away from you, don't be certain that he is heading that way. He could be walking backwards and is behind you ready to pounce and have you for lunch!

Some asked the Lord, "What are the works of God?" He answered: "The work of God is to believe on Him whom He has sent."

But the Scripture doesn't say that at all. You are reading things into the verse that are not there. Believing in Christ is putting full trust in His finished work on Calvary and acting on His promise, "Come unto Me all who are weary and heavy laden and I will give you rest". And "He who...

You've lost the debate, because you chose to resort to abuse and accusation. You have just shot yourself in the foot!

This is a loaded question because you have your own answer in mind, and it will be just another opportunity to shoot the other guy down.

Use your intellect and tell me.

There is nothing in the passage to say that she was a Gentile. There were plenty of sinful and immoral women in Israel.

I just can't be bothered wasting my time searching for answers to historical questions that are not essential to believing the gospel of Christ. You can use Google just as well as I can if you really want to know the answers.

Oh? So this Scripture is incorrect then? "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life" (John 3:16).

So? Knowing everything there is to know about the nature and character of God is not essential to believing the gospel of Christ, receiving Him as Saviour and receiving eternal life. It is the gospel of Christ that is the mystery made clear to converted believers.

Of course the scientific theories of what might have probably happened look very attractive and plausible with all the pretty pictures and diagrams. Much more attractive than just black print in a book that says, "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth", with no pretty pictures...

Yes.

True. The companion Scripture is: "For the god of this world has blinded the minds of those who believe not, lest they should see the light of the glorious gospel of Christ" (1 Corinthians 4:4). But we are talking about the unconverted here. The Bible is not a mystery to those who are...

How, then do you explain Paul's statement that the mystery that has been kept down through the ages (the sealed book?) has now been fully revealed? (Colossians 1:26).

I don't understand. There are many commentators. Which ones do you think are telling lies?

I looked up 1 Thess 4 and I don't see 1000 years mentioned.

It is not that the natural man cannot understand what the Bible actually says. It is because he doesn't want to accept what it says about him and what he should do about it.

I know because there isn't. That's why it remains a theory and not a solid scientific law.
