No. I don't have to think. I've thought, studied, and believed the very simple and clear words of scripture. And YOUR lack of understanding is exemplified by your comment about Paul's statement from 1 Cor 1:17 No, I've already thought, studied, and believed the simple, straightforward words of...

Exactly what I did. The bible doesn't contradict itself so scripture must agree with scripture. Did the Ethiopian eunuch repent or believe 1st? Repentance is not mentioned, but he was preached to, he believed which he was told he could be baptized if he believed, he confirmed or confessedvhis...

My response was a rhetorical question, the point being there must be consistency irrespective of the age. If you're old enough to be provided and use a weapon by the government at whatever age is deemed appropriate by it, then that same age should be consistent outside of the government as well...

Do you think people 25 should be allowed to serve in the military, defending and dying for this country, our freedom, and way of life using GUNS that we provide them? Dumb, no-brainer question.

Ephesians 3:21 “Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.” Rev 21:5 “And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful.”
