    Lack of understanding and compassion is the problem. Love without respect. You can see what it has done. Millions of people feel that they are condemned from an singular obscure scripture. How many souls have been lost because this interpretation of scripture made them feel there was no hope...

    The last thing the Bible is, is a sex manual. There is a lot that goes on with sex that is not condoned or condemned. As Christianity went on all sex, married or not was considered vile. Early writers of Christianity looked at the scriptures and said that married people should be ashamed.

    I am not alone in the observation. It is never a good idea to make a strong belief out of singular scripture. Gossiping and condemning others is a sin, so you better be sure. The OT singles out males. So the NT scripture in Romans stands alone. The concept of making strong beliefs out of...

    of the law and prophets, to love the Lord God and your neighbor, cannot be kept if Christians are respecting persons; meaning that you are not loving the Lord God and your neighbor if you are a respecter of persons. Sounds a lot like…. James 2:8-10 If ye fulfill the royal law according to the...

    Paganism In Christianity!!!..........The Catholics Worship Mary and Idols! Besides experiences, the brain rationalizes things using words and labels and labels work for simple concepts but invariably they are inaccurate when dealing with the details.

    have added to the lists of sins….playing the part of the Jewish leaders of old. The Jewish leaders that were the enemies of Christ. They had no right to play god, they had no right to add to the burden of Christians. Were they doing the work of the Devil to make Christians think that there is no...

    Also there is no clear category for rape because the word does not appear in the NT. Although in my opinion, whatever category it is, I consider it as serious as murder… child molestation is not mentioned in the scriptures either but I consider that worse than murder…not biblical…personal...

    So for me, anyone that adds to this or takes away from this, takes away from their heavenly reward. Still did Christ specifically call anything a sin? Yes He did. Matthew 12:31-32 “Therefore I say to you, any sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven people, but blasphemy against the Spirit shall...

    Man-made sins….Man playing God? What are man-made sins? And what is the difference? I am sure for those that have been on this forum, most have involved in discussions regarding sin in its various forms and severities and the fact that it is impossible to be sinless. The question I am going...

    So the Roman Church had a problem and they handled it as Romans do. It was decreed that if you did not believe in the one substance and one God Trinity doctrine…you would not go to heaven…if you spoke against it or preached another doctrine, you could be excommunicated or executed as a...

    Then again John has other issues, the story line is choppy enough to suggest removal of some sections and as it is additions have been proven. In regard to Gnostic beliefs the conception of Yeshua as Logos was a metaphysical-physical-spiritual conception, in which Yeshua’s spirit descended from...

    **************The Gnostic Side of Christian History********** Gnosticism….the Logos….and the Trinity in the Early Church I cannot take credit for noting that parts of the Gospel of John has some Greek-Gnostic influences….it is a topic discussed by biblical scholars today, but it was noted...

    The same is true of the Godhead, in this case three, but if there would have been a hundred named Gods that talked with each other and did all the above, the Church would have labeled them one in order to get their theology to work. Certainly multiple persons in one God is a difficult concept...

    23. “The My Father verses” are the most prevalent and best examples of Yeshua’s relationship with Yahweh. Over fifty times in the Gospels Yeshua refers to Yahweh as “My Father.” As far as understanding the interconnecting relationship between Yeshua and Yahweh these verses are very important to...
