    Berserk NDE Thread

    "Vince: "Recorded only means written down." Are you actually claiming that face-to-face interviews with countless eyewitnesses, including physicians, nurses, and Dr. Moody himself don't count as evidence? Are you claiming that ADC evidence like Telly Savalas's phone number note from the ghost...

    Berserk NDE Thread

    Vince: "If you keep accusing me of not watching the videos when I know I have then why should I continue? Look at the facts and what I am saying and have a conversation." Raymond Moody and Paul Perry are both medical doctors who have documented their interviews with physicians, nurses, and...

    Berserk NDE Thread

    Vince: "This is not the way this works. You are making a claim, the burden of proof is on you to show that god of the bible is the cause of these miracles. Why is it not the Muslim god? How can I tell the difference?" Yes,"this is the way this works!" You pass yourself off as an atheist...

    Berserk NDE Thread

    Vince: "The fact that this convinces you does not mean that it will convince others." It apparently convinced the other online Vince. He renounced his skepticism and became a born again Christian. Vince: "I listened to the videos and had some questions that you are unwilling to answer I...

    Berserk NDE Thread

    You have not explored my thread on "My Journey through the Lens of Paranormal Experiences" in the site's Testimonial section. Vince: "These videos are just claims with no supporting evidence. The only way we can know any of this happened is by a person telling us they had some kind of...

    From Berserk from the Right Prayer Partner in the Prayer Forum

    Vince: "Are these x-rays available to look at? Are the doctors available to talk to? How do you know that the healing was from the god of the Bible?" Dave is a good friend and a member of my weekly Monday prayer group. His word is good enough for me. Also, his mother-in-law was healed of...

    For Vince: Progressive Revelation on Slavery, Violence and War, Eternal Damnaton, etc.

    Vince: "This site does not let me post in those sections." That's a lame excuse for not at least reading the threads and watching the videos. You could start new threads where you can post that react to my threads that confirm God's exisitence. V

    For Vince: Progressive Revelation on Slavery, Violence and War, Eternal Damnaton, etc.

    Vince: "I am not against god. I don't believe he exists. You believe that the bible is the word of god in some fashion," So why haven't you read and responded to my threads that demonstrate that God DOES exist? Start with my thread on "My Life Journey" in the Testimonial section. Then read...

    Plausible denial

    JellyJam. You ducked my question and have not read my threads that I posted that just might convince you that there is an interventionist God. I therefore reissue my challenge to check out those threads and the videos posted in them to see whether they convince you. Are you for real? Or you...

    The Gift of Tongues: its General Availability, Purpose, and Power

    It us useless to try to share Scripture with Dave because he neatly fits the first and 2nd church's criterion for blasphemy against the Holy Spirit, and so, his heart is now hardened to the Spirit's promptings. This is most clearly evident in his desperate reaction to biblically grounded...

    What IS "sound doctrine".

    Now as is typical of heretics, you are putting words in my mouth. Prophecy has a predictive element, but so does apocalyptic. But unlike apocalyptic, the future is not fixed for prophecy. That is why, for example, several OT prophetic predictions are revoked because the warnings prompted the...

    What IS "sound doctrine".

    1stCenturyLady: "The Book of Revelation is PROPHECY. The prophetic aspect of the letters to the seven churches could not be seen until it truly became history and could be seen in the exact order they were written. For you to think that the letters are one dimensional and have no bearing on us...

    My church? Right!!!

    I am a retired UMC pastor and ex-theology professor at a Catholic university. I suggest that in your church hopping your criterion should be: Which church satisfies Paul's criterion for manifesting the kingdom of God on earth. Consider 1 Corinthians 4:19-20, the most neglected of the crucial...

    What IS "sound doctrine".

    This post is exhibit A of "unsound doctrine." Harvest assumes without evidence that the letters to the 7 churches are prophetic types of churches throughout history. No academic commentary on Revelation accepts this heresy! In fact, the letters reflect concrete historical situations in the...

    Plausible denial

    JellyJam, I'm sorry that I just discovered this thread. Jelly, I am a retired pastor and Theology professor and nothing would please me more than to see you have a profound conversion experience. To serve you best, though, I need to know whatever you would care to share about your life...

    Atheist objections to evidence for God's existence

    Vince: "there are no contemporary eyewitness accounts to the resurrection. I would not believe anyone walked on the moon without supporting evidence." Where did you get that idea? Would if make a difference to your faith quest, if a solid connection between Jesus' resurrection and eyewitness...

    The Gift of Tongues: its General Availability, Purpose, and Power

    Dave L: "You interpret scripture according to what you've been trained to see." You pontificate again without even knowing me! I always consider the possibility that the standard interpretation of Scripture is wrong and then ask, "What would I need to find in Scripture to confim that...

    The Gift of Tongues: its General Availability, Purpose, and Power

    Dave L: ""The bible says the gifts expired as scripture replaced them. And history confirms this." You keep pontificating this nonsense, but never consider the fact that no academic commentary on Acts and 1 Corinthians supports your cultic interpretation of 1 Corinthians 1:8 and 13:8-12. And...

    The Gift of Tongues: its General Availability, Purpose, and Power

    What makes Dave L's responses so reprehensible is not his cessationist view of tongues, but his unwillingness to analyze the basis for the interpretation of the various relevant texts and, worse, his unwillingness to watch posted videos documenting eyewitness testimony about how the Azusa Street...

    Romans 1:19-20

    Vince, Sir Francis Collins is the head of the Human Genome Project, which has produced perhaps the greatest scientific breakthrough in the last hundred years. In this video he lays out his journey from atheism to a devout Christian in a way that effectively responds to your question about...
