    Not by works - but by faith

    We know he went to paradise. There is a debate exactly as to what was meant by that. Nothing you and I are going to resolve. Still, belief and faith are a powerful thing. Christ knows the heart...so He will be the judge. I am not saying that a person that believes will not go to heaven if he or...

    Not by works - but by faith

    1. Define the "commandments of God" and the Commandments that Christ was referring to. 2 I will argue that the Paul was talking about the works of the Law, that was not required and James was presenting the need to applying Christian works as helping one another.

    Heresy within Christianity

    Again and again....you are the instrument of destruction of Christianity...and you have obviously worked hard at it. What is your goal? You alienate the youth of the world with your weird science. None of the legitimate branches of science will endorse what you have presented. What your...

    Heresy within Christianity

    As I said, I understand the arguments....It is all head in the sand stuff. Paleontology, paleoanthropology, genetics, geology, zooarchaeology, evolutionary biology geochronologistsbotany, and ecology. All sciences of evolution. And again it does not matter what you and I believe. It matters...

    Heresy within Christianity

    Are we talking about the science of evolution or creation. God created....and evolution was guided by God. Third rock from the sun was a rock....after billions of years of living and dying it was covered with dirt....dirt, clay, and oil are all the biologics that have lived and died. Evolution...

    Heresy within Christianity

    I could explain it to you....but since you think evolution is one science....it would benefit you to go study it. There is a lot to learn in that process.

    Heresy within Christianity

    Understand the observation thing and those that are opposed to evolution and the various agreements, but struggling against evolution as a science is waste of time....cats out the bag. The point is, if things keep going as the are the youth will loose interest. It does not matter to you or...

    Heresy within Christianity

    No of course not.....it means that he was really strong or the tree was symbolic.

    Heresy within Christianity

    I understand the concept and so did the Apostles. They also understood that world was flat and diseases were caused by demons, and Christ would return soon. Even so, because they were wrong, that does not make the entire Bible wrong. But since He did not return soon, Christianity marched on, for...

    Heresy within Christianity

    Never said....something created out of nothing..... God the Father created everything. The atom looks like a solar system....solar system looks like a galaxy.....galaxy looks like a universe. Things created and made by God.....just a little more complex than zap. And making people think is a...

    Heresy within Christianity

    Science...some see it as the fly in the ointment. First I need to remind some that we are on a worldwide internet forum...communicating through satellites over 20,000 miles in space. Some maybe using smart phones and tablets that have a thousand times the computing power than the computers used...

    Not by works - but by faith

    That is the point....I think you know that....a discussion. A discussion about the abundance of beliefs when salvation is short and sweet. I do intent to start a thread. Thank you

    Not by works - but by faith

    Communion….Eucharist….Lord’s Supper a. Not a sacrament- does nothing. Public display no miracle and no spiritual meaning, an act of obedience, not a requirement for salvation. Crackers and Kool-aid. b. Symbolic as a religious ritual, a form of worship, obedience, commemoration of Christ’s...

    Not by works - but by faith

    Salvation Salvation…what is the process? A very simple process described in the NT, but made complex and confusing by men. I firmly believe you could write all you Needed to know for Christian salvation and the application of it on a 3 by 5 cards and drop them on one island and drop a bunch of...

    Virgin Mary Had Other Children After Jesus

    This is actually a good topic if someone would like to start a thread on it. The Apostle Paul does refer to people as saints. 1. What constitutes being a saint? 2. Were there saints in the Old Testament? 3. Were there saints after 65 AD? 4. Are there saints today? 5. Who determines if someone...

    Virgin Mary Had Other Children After Jesus

    Really? So you believe God literally reproduced and had a Baby? Yeap. Do you have another definition for son? for conceive? Begotten? But I do believe He had a "Holy Thing"

    Virgin Mary Had Other Children After Jesus

    And thank you for the scriptures. Christianity is about beliefs and if you want to believe this....I am ok with that. But this is not between you and me. This is one of the oldest debates out there.... The Greek definition of it in a Lexicon or in the strong's, or in the Oxford dictionary of...
