It's sad they cannot provide straight answers. (This is the nature of dualism) In reviewing Romans 7 that you referenced above, I came across v19. It implies, according to OSAS, that Saint Paul was not saved and born again since he admits living out evil on an ongoing basis. I can determine...

I didn't say anything about feelings.

Did you read the thread on Evidence to Be Seen? Just last month there was a miracle at my church. The month before my wife experience a miracle. A few years ago a coworker experienced a miracle. The evidence is overwhelming. The Bible has a way of describing people like you; you don't have...

Friend, you are side stepping. My question was not about emotions but actions. In the Bible, love is not an emotion but action. Loving God's will mean action, doing his will. Do you think God wants us to live (an action) a life in rebellion to his will? (It is a simple question. And one does...

I don't believe a word you write! There IS evidence to be seen! You just don't want to see it because you'd have responsibility in KNOWING there is more to the universe than this mortal coil and that is too overwhelming to ponder. Just last month there was a miracle at my church. You are...

You are changing the frame of reference, which is being resurrected as a spirit or in a body.

False. I trust Scripture that says to act, to seek and you will find, to knock and the door will be opened, to ask and it will be given.

Not an answer to the question but an implied Appeal to Ignorance/False Alternative. You mean to say one cannot talk to one group about how a 2nd group is made in the image of a 3rd group? Wow! For instance, a POTUS cannot say to an audience of foreigners that Americans today are like...

Christianity isn’t supposed to be practiced alone. You need community. Iron sharpens iron. The ‘perhaps’ in your reply suggests you mostly know it all already. You only admit it is a possibility rather than a scenario approaching highly likely. Is that accurate?

So, only other people have subjective beliefs - that you feel obligated to emphasize - but you have objective beliefs. Wow! Not a lot of spiritual maturity there, my friend. :eek:

I did say there were many wars. In the interest of brevity I did not list the numerous atrocities initiated by the Roman Catholic Church, like the inquisitions, that set off what seemed like an endless cycle of vicious action and reaction, attack and counter attack. The actual history of...

Do you also have subjective beliefs MatthewG?

I quickly perused the other replies as I'm late to the party. I'll provide some direct but concise answers. Let's start at the beginning ... t = 36 - 385 AD While Christianity grew relatively quickly, transportation and communication across the known world was extremely slow. Naturally, local...

And who do you presume God is talking to in these verses?

Facilitators. At work many meetings progress with me functioning as a facilitator. Like Christ, I serve as a natural bridge or gate. Dispassionate about the result, my concern is the be sure there is a logical progression to the discussion and all sides participate. The relationship is more...

You seem pre-occupied with the numbers. I don't know anything about elders but the whole church seems pretty clear. And I would add for practicality, who is there at the time - provided to foul play. For instance, my wife and I split between in person service and watching it on line. We may or...

And the OP is hopelessly wrong. God is one, not 3 in 1.Thst is direct in Deut 6:4

Hmmm. There is a lot of articles on the subject. Certainly, the fertility rate is suicidal in Western Civilization. :-(

You are a poet! Much thanks. :cool:

Naturally, you have to rely on a horrible translation to make your case. (A:vi, S: v) 4 “Sh’ma, Yisra’el! Adonai Eloheinu, Adonai echad [Hear, Isra’el! Adonai our God, Adonai is one]; CJB Listen, Israel: Yahweh is our Elohim. Yahweh is the only God. (NOG) Moses: 4 Listen, Israel! The Eternal is...
