That's the best exchange I've seen in a long time.

256? Binary? Humor is good; we all need a hearty laugh now and then. Would you apply the same principle to the other nine commandments? Perhaps if I were ever angry toward my neighbor without just cause, you might have me run over there and just shoot him between the eyes, since I'd already...

This is the praise forum. Should I turn to you the other cheek also? Whether you choose to cherish the Sabbath or trample it underfoot I hope you have a blessed one. :)

Sun's about to set here in an hour or so, and I'm excited about ushering in the Sabbath of the LORD. It's like having Christmas every week without the commercial junk. Hallelujah!!!

Always comfort before you encourage. ;) :D

Back in the good ol' days (for some people, right?). I'm really sorry you had to bear that, Zig. Is it true that whatever doesn't kill you makes you stronger? (I've had to deal with some pretty awful stuff, but there's awful, and then there's awful... You know I mean.) I suppose that's some...

An opinion agreed upon by many is not a fact, however forcefully and brashly stated.

My daddy's paternal aunt had a child out of wedlock and was never married. She was a Southern Baptist and at the time, I think a gal was just expected to suffer the shame for-ever. Period. Jesus forgives, but people, not so much.

I don't recall ever having heard that put any better, Sister Chris!!

Not according to me—you didn't address any of the points I made in my refutation of the standard, superficial interpretation of 2nd Corinthians, chapter 3. And we weren't discussing the OP. The topic of the Sabbath eventually forays into an attack on the ten commandments as a whole, which you...

This is so beautiful, John!

It took me so long to find my Jesus (that's what my Grandma Bryant called Him, rest her soul), but when I finally did, I fell head over heels. I can remember crying as I sasked my pastor back in 1991, "Why is Jesus not real to me?" I knew so much about Him, but I didn't know Him. I finally met...

Friend, I'm not in the least bit afraid of going to hell because I know that if God judged me worthy of it, it would be the best place for me. But I believe hell is a place where people get exactly what they deserve—no more, no less. :)

I confess that human psychology fascinates me in light of our duty to have the mind which was also in Christ Jesus (Philippians 2:5). There doesn't seem to be that much to analyze here. I am sorry that I made trouble and caused you to insult and slander me by daring to question your remarks...

Was it also a grievous, unreasonable yoke to abstain from idol worship, murder, theft, adultery, or covetousness? The rest of grace in Hebrews 4 is not the rest of the 4th commandment.

Most believers actually do not reject how Jesus counted days referring to His death and resurrection,. Otherwise, we wouldn't have Good Friday and Resurrection Sunday. :)

The law of sin and death referred to in Romans 8:2 is described in Romans 6:23.

Please refrain from responding with a refutation devoid of thoughtful research and preparation. I have done you the courtesy of replying to your pointed objection in a straightforward, honest, and sincere manner. In the spirit of Christian charity, please reciprocate appropriately. Let the...

I've never understood the contention that exists in Christology. The objection always seems to be that if Christ was born with an unfallen nature, then He couldn't be tempted as we are. If His human nature was that of Adam before the fall, would this give Him an advantage that would amount to...
