Not only. God guides us whether we can reason or not to go His way. Also, without God, the mind sometimes works impulsively without reason, ordering knee jerk reactions that result in foolishness and sin. Since man is born a slave to sin, his reason is maligned, blind. Blind reason is deadly...

Well, just like the LGBTQ group, they have a loud voice, parading down the streets, clanging their cymbals. Such a small group influenced the SCOTUS to legalize Gay Marriage. These Non-Trinis or Binatarians won't change the nature of Jesus or the Holy Spirit.

Wow, I guess there is just no disagreeing with you then, you are full of the knowledge of Christ and His word. Likely you don't even need the Holy Spirit to teach you? The non-Trinitarian view explains a lot. Well then, no need for my input, so that's all folks!

There has been controversy between scholars concerning whether Paul was speaking about his former life or his present one that struggles with sin as does the Christian. If we were born again and all of a sudden started behaving like perfect Christ-like beings, there would not have been a...

Satan and his demons ( 1/3 of the angels) fell from grace, heaven and changed. They did not have certain abilities they once had. The demons had to occupy a soul, a human it an animal. Besides that, God uses them for a purpose. When His purposenhas been accomplished, what do you think He will...

I know, I don't hold it against him. I just never heard him preaching about the end times, which would be a preterist view. MacArthur just recently admitted to being a Calvinist in front of Sproul- afterI keeping it silent for umteen years. But of course, John is a Pre-Millennailist. And so two...

Sproul is a good teacher of theology. I do not agree with his preterist view, but that does not void the rest of his teaching. At least he doesn't push Replacement Theology. So we will be raptured to Jerusalem? Gullible? You are very judgmental, condemning billions of professed believers? Are...

Yes, verses 6 &7 is a prophecy about the servant, Jesus, whose mission was to come to Israel, a blind nation and bring salvation to them first and then to the world. RC Sproul ministries: "Theologically speaking, on Isaiah 42, the prophet Isaiah has one central message: The children of...

Jesus used the name, Gehenna, the deep ravine used as a perpetually burning garbage dump often used for dead and diseased animals that existed outside of Jerusalem, to describe the penalty of sin, death. Now dead bodies were thrown onto this smoldering fire dump. On the edges of the dump...

The context is about Israel who is blind. 2 Tim. 4:4 "They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths." Jesus said I am the truth. So in this context, people will listen to false teachings who turn them away from Christ towards myths, outside the Christian faith...

They did not have knowledge of good or evil prior to that. So they became aware of morality. God knows, they didn't. God didn't need knowledge of good evil or a lesson. He is omniscient. God, after He finished, said it was good. But Adam and Eve did not know good. The Tree of Knowledge of Good...

I only meant the word logic is grossly insufficient. I think when introducing God as in " In the beginning was the Logos, the Logos was with God and the logos was God" is a profound, deep, meaning. The glory and majesty, the omnipotence, omnipresence and omniscience is expressed on logos. We...

No, there were too many heated discussions. There are non-Trinitarians ( JW's, Unitaritarians) trying to argue their beliefs while the Trinitarians won't have it. 97% of Christianity are Trinitarians so the 3% have to make a loud noise to be noticed.(Aunty Jane is a JW btw). People were getting...

This wasn't a letter to the Jews. It's called Romans. I am sure there were some Jews there, but by now, 30 years after Jesus death and resurrection, people were familiar with why he died, what the Law was, from which we learn what sin is. Here is a much better commentary on the gist of Romans...

Applicable to non-Christians. Non- Christians, all false religions, atheists. God sends a strong delusion to people who are not His sheep. Non- Christians God reveals the truth to His sheep. Everyone else is blind. I agree, this is not true. The Middle East is already warring and will...

@Logikos It doesn't seem like you are getting any traction on your other related thread, "Our Moral God", so I will ask you on this one, Why would you use any knowledge and quotes from an atheist ( Mr. Ayn Rand) to write a " thesis" to describe any aspect of God's nature? There is plenty...

Why would you use any knowledge and quotes from an atheist ( Mr. Ayn Rand) to write a " thesis" to describe any aspect of God's nature? And yes, it is offensive to refer to Jesus as merely logic. Logos is Jesus, Who is the exact "expression" of God. So He od all knowledge, wisdom, love, all...

Ellicott and Barnes got it right. Immediately doesn't mean instantly. That said, their boat could have been tossed around in a storm 100 yards from the shore and prevented them from going to shore. The storm stopped and they were permitted to land after a few minutes

Matthew 24 has presented a complex prophecy that many Christians and scholars have wrestled with. The disciples asked a loaded 3-part question. The answered spans the entire Christian age before His return. His prophecy about the Temple was fulfilled in 70 AD. But the question of His Second...
