who was declared by the resurrection from the dead, according to the Spirit of holiness, Jesus Christ our Lord, and your point?

On the question of when was it possible for a wife to divorce her husband? It is not entirely about what Christ said. Could they actually do it? I am looking for a historical event before the 1800's If you can provide one, that is what I am looking for. As far as modern divorce...I am of the...

None of them wrote their own book and elevated it above Bible authority. That's a HUGE difference between Mormonism and the denominations started by these men. Yes a "modern" religion that has additional books....still within the spirit of Christianity and produces an application and character...

I have never thought you were completely Calvinist, too independent for that. One of my points is that, all organized religions we know of today were organized by men.....we can blame the men for their errors....not to many women organized religions.

I did not miss it entirely, I get what you saying about the OT. Understanding that the OT was a mess and it is not our religion. But the question is about the NT and if women could divorce....and if it really happened? The question, like I said, can expand to the whole conversion in the...

What organized religions has not been started by men? Some worst then others. Augustine was of such poor character that he thought all humanity was without discipline and as sinful as he. And he wrote theologies based on that. Calvin is the same, but I would mostly describe him as an insane...

a focus on any one scripture, particularly extremes can lead to misinterpretation of the meaning of the scripture or even the spirit of Christianity. Women are not save by child birth and washing feet....if we did not touch women, we would not be here talking....the lilies of the field do not...

Grailhunter, Moses was only a mediator. God allowed for divorce. Sorry, that is not what Christ said, and He indicated that was not what God wanted from the beginning. Now what you take from Christ's words, is up to you. And then we get into much of the Mosaic Law that was suppose to have came...

That is one of the points made. The procedures for divorce was a Mosaic Law. The Israelite were under the assumption that the Mosaic Laws were given by God. Christ casts a certain amount of doubt on that by sayings "Moses allowed you to divorce" and goes on to indicate that God did not like that...

Halloween...just another Christian / Pagan holiday? As many probably know, when Christianity and the Roman Empire "merged" so did our cultures. Today most of our Christian holidays have a Pagan side. Depending on what country you live in, the Pagan side of the holidays are more obvious. Even...

Most probably know the historical evolution of the cross and crucifix in Christianity. There were some that saw the morbid side of a execution device with someone you loved nailed to it. Personally I have not issues with it. I had a neighbor's son tell on me about having a naked man nailed to a...

Ya...radical. It is nearly impossible to count the number of non-denominational churches. Some are denominational churches that bill themselves as non-denominational to appeal to a larger group of people. I think you are right that more and more people are becoming resistant to someone telling...

Giuliano, Just to add a dash of humor. Thousands and thousands of Protestant denominations, what was going through their heads? How many reasons can you have to start a new church?

I think you have said it before....a focus on any one scripture, particularly extremes can lead to misinterpretation of the meaning of the scripture or even the spirit of Christianity. Women are not save by child birth and washing feet....if we did not touch women, we would not be here...

I understand what you are saying and thank you. The whole point that they are selling their wives is mostly about, they are not doing what some might think they are doing. When was it possible for a wife to divorce her husband? In the biblical era and going forward it is not easy to track...

Alot of truth there. What can you say to a controlled mind.....the truth is just static to them.

I have read that correlation. Sir Issac Newton did a little arithmetic on the dimensions of the Temple.

Interesting concept because Christ never said to build a Temple to Him.

Agreed....and a very close study can lead to unique perspective....what "I think" you are talking about is what I believe....that you have to look at the spirit of the Bible.....to close a perspective and you cannot see the forest for the trees.

Ya, but still say it.
