You have GISMYS_7 what Paul says is another gospel....I will have no part of it.

hello Mike

This is dividing the scriptures and splicing into them a view that distorts the message. Peter and Paul had the same message. To Paul its implications were revealed at one time, to Peter at another. 'The mystery' was not about jews and gentiles now having access equally to forgiveness but...

Your post #40 is in error on every point you make. So much for your insistence on context where the scriptures you've sited in #40 are totally out of context.

Your ideas here CL are definitely not gleaned from the scriptures known as the Bible. If you think you can substantiate them from the bible, I would be most curious.

What we need to be mindful of marks, is that we do not make this thing walk on all legs that can be invented or conjured up. Stan's position of deeming the body of an unborn child dead because it does not have the breath in its lungs is clearly short sighted and a...

I have wondered why Jesus never engaged the religious folk in lengthy debate.....I figure he knew it was pointless unless they had a heart for truth......anything else is just yada yada.

Consider how God dealt with Nebuchadnezzer.....consider how he dealt with Job.....consider how he dealt with Jesus In man's wisdom man assumes he is in control yet that assumption is revealed as delusions of grandeur......Nebuchadnezzer gave witness to this after he returned from his insanity...

It sounds confused and contradictory to me justbyfaith, not to mention a precarious juggling act with the scriptures.

'any man who calls his brother a fool is in danger of hell fire'.....Jesus. Why do you think he said that?

Do you use the the fulfilment of ceremonial laws to excuse yourself from obligation to the moral laws, the Ten Commandments?

Are you implying mjrhealth that you cannot keep God's Commandments? May I ask which of the Commandments you cannot keep? I'm sure Ananias had power not to lie as did his wife but they chose to lie by agreement. Would there be a similar situation with yourself where you choose to disregard God's...

God ultimately has the last word. We will all know soon enough who the liar is.

hello Agios...what is the driving force that has motivated you to join this band of ragamuffins?
