    Do the blacks have a right to hold a grudge?

    I was using your thread to bounce into a parallel issue, that being exegesis....conclusions drawn from a flawed understanding of prophecy/scripture. Inevitably God looks like the culprit and gets the blame when the view we have is incorrect. It's a prompt to reassess. In the later chapters of...

    Hello HunterB. I hope your time here is encouraging. We are diverse lot. You will find here wheat and tares. Some are towers of strength while others are lost puppies trying to find their feet yet others still are enamoured with zeal to the point of blindness. Be strong, use the word of hope and...

    Do the blacks have a right to hold a grudge?

    ahhh, the art of confusion through fake news, ie miserable exegesis. It has a strong grip if it's believed and double strong if it's defended. .....and Jesus said 'are you still asleep. Pray that ye enter not into temptation' ....but their eyes were heavy.

    Critters, there's more than meats the eye...

    Humans are not animals in spite of sharing a similar biology. This should be obvious to all who call God their Father.

    Critters, there's more than meats the eye...

    You have muddled the scriptures Dave. God made man in his image. It was personal. Man was in God's likeness, not so the animals. God spoke them into existence without the same intimate touch. Your language re souls is skewed. Have you not read it's context at mans creation?? Not even man has a...

    Stranded Whales....

    The planet is in turmoil for all who have eyes to see...nothing is untouched....the air, the land, even space is polluted, the seasons, the animals the people. Breakdown is all around us with an increasing rapidity. To set ones sights on health and life in the real sense of the words and pursue...

    A Common Error

    Creating a division of purpose is what you're doing. The purpose of God has always been the same; to save humanity. Because of human shortsightedness he chose to present his salvation plan in different ways. One might say he revealed the different aspects by unfolding it bit by bit. To Adam he...

    Another Look at "The Origins of Giants After the flood"

    It doesn't address the matter at hand. You quote scriptures with similar language but fail to address the issue assuming that your quotes have the connection but they don't. This is poor exegesis and frankly, it's dishonest.

    How Free Will Destroys the Gospel

    QT said your answer is loose as well Dave. Dave said This is common knowledge in Christian Theology. that doesn't make it credible or valid

    Obedience pays off!!!!

    G God will not ask us to do something that is not in our interest. What we deem as our interest is not necessarily our interest. A child might want to cross the motorway while the parent restrains. I pray for patience, for discernment so the obvious is not missed.

    “And the earth was without form, and void”

    why would he want to do that?

    I'm not persuaded of this either.

    Another Look at "The Origins of Giants After the flood"

    I'm not persuaded angels are male Enoch. Why would they not be neuter? Your position would mean that angels have sperm that is compatible with human females....Nahhhh, that's drawing a long bow.

    How Free Will Destroys the Gospel

    Your statement is loose Dave. You don't like the law? What is you don't like? You must have an awful problem with the pronouncements in Psalms Does fulfilling the law qualify as abolishing it? We are talking about the Ten Commandments aren't we?
