    Who is the suffering servant in Isaiah 53?

    That was the point. Joh 18:33-37 Pilate went back into the Praetorium, summoned Jesus, and asked Him, “Are You the King of the Jews?” (34) “Are you saying this on your own,” Jesus asked, “or did others tell you about Me?” (35) “Am I a Jew?” Pilate replied. “Your own people and chief...

    You better get busy editing this Wikipedia page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_law#:~:text=Natural%20law%20%28Latin%3A%20ius%20naturale%2C%20lex%20naturalis%29%20is,express%20enacted%20laws%20of%20a%20state%20or%20society%29. Natural law[1] (Latin: ius naturale, lex naturalis) is a...

    Does John 5:24-29 contradict the belief that one must believe in Jesus to avoid eternal death?

    The Bible is absolutely authoritative on no-one coming to the Father except through Christ.

    What makes a doctrine false?

    Can you provide references that support your opinions. Weird how you disagree with things I post and then by what you post restate them. Still no such thing as kametic whatever getting hits. ??? I've heard of karmic law but it's from eastern religion and intrinsically incongruous.

    What makes a doctrine false?

    Can't get a hit on "kametic law" but Natural Law is a system of law based on a close observation of human nature and values intrinsic to human nature that can be deduced and applied independently of positive law (the express enacted laws of a state or society). According to the theory of law...

    Does John 5:24-29 contradict the belief that one must believe in Jesus to avoid eternal death?

    All that God does is moral and right. Job 36:22-24 Behold, God is exalted in His power. Who is a teacher like Him? (23) Who has appointed His way for Him, or told Him, ‘You have done wrong’? (24) Remember to magnify His work, which men have praised in song. God is all-knowing and...

    What do you think is missing . . . that you think should be included in the canon?

    Does John 5:24-29 contradict the belief that one must believe in Jesus to avoid eternal death?

    Not sure what you mean . . . do you question the two Scripture references I posted or what?

    What makes a doctrine false?

    See here: A parable that deals with eternal condemnation is found in Luke 16:19-31. In this parable, Jesus tells a story about a rich man who died and suffered torment in Hades. Jesus shares that this man longed to be able to send a warning to his family members who were still alive that they...

    Does John 5:24-29 contradict the belief that one must believe in Jesus to avoid eternal death?

    Universalism means the exile from Eden, the Great Flood, the issuing & enforcement of the Law, the Babylonian Captivity, and all of God's penal judgments are immoral. Revelation 5:13 depicts all Creation, good or bad, righteous or unrighteous, in heaven or not, as acknowledging and applauding...

    Does John 5:24-29 contradict the belief that one must believe in Jesus to avoid eternal death?

    Rom 10:8-13 But what does it say? “The word is near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart,” that is, the word of faith we are proclaiming: (9) that if you confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. (10) For...

    If perfect, why did Adam sin?

    Pantheism in a chop-shop.

    If perfect, why did Adam sin?

    Not wrong. No mention by names, but Jesus does make reference to them in a general sense. Gen 2:24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh. Mar 10:5-9 And Jesus answered and said unto them, For the hardness of your...

    What makes a doctrine false?

    It becomes a matter of making up one's own mind after due diligence. Doubtful disputes should be dismissed. In Acts 17:11, it is written that Paul and Silas preached at Berea and the inhabitants "received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those...

    What makes a doctrine false?

    The foremost reason for deciding a doctrine is false is that it opposes a fundamental truth contained in the canon of Scripture. I am reluctant to propose a one-size-fits-all way to determine doctrinal issues, but certainly familiarity with the contents of the Bible is important. It is often...
