I'm troubled by the logical absurdity of statements containing expressions that impose upon God the inability or impossibility of any kind of function. The fact that God's "nature," as we've coined it, is resolute in benevolent purpose to a degree we cannot even fathom does not necessitate any...

I think it might have been 2nd-degree murder, forensically speaking. John 10 17 Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again. 18 No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again...

Balaam

Who's gonna save us? :D Most people are just attracted to the (usually) nice preachers—not the doctrine, mostly because it's pretty hard to understand. Nobody bought it at my church 20 years ago. It looks like universalism even to the discerning ones at first, something to be dismissed...

Well, as a brother, I'm telling you I don't remember that, and you're probably right about it, but I got to be a' movin' on from this sandbox. :D:p

Well, I mean, the thing is, what can we do about isolated, 35-year-old cases like this, anyway? We know the stuff's going on and sure, we need to be devoting some effort to prayer that God will protect the innocent, but I think we come too close to glorifying some of this stuff in our efforts to...

I'm basically agreeing with you. Cain didn't seem to need to rely on any sophisticated weaponry to do Abel in.

I don't see what's so hard to believe about these stories. The devil is engaged in a millennia-long campaign of the degradation of the human race. As horrifying as the details are, it's no surprise to me that he has managed to gain some expertise in doing his worst at a substantial level of...

I could be wrong, but it sounds like the "In Christ motif" forensic justification bit to me. Failure to succinctly distinguish common grace from saving grace. I had a Pastor who believed it. Some of the more zealous members tried to oust him. They got disfellowshipped for their trouble. It is...

I doubt Cain had a Sig Sauer handy.

Jeremiah 8 5Why then is this people of Jerusalem slidden back by a perpetual backsliding? they hold fast deceit, they refuse to return. 6I hearkened and heard, but they spake not aright: no man repented him of his wickedness, saying, What have I done? every one turned to his course, as the...

The problem with relying upon what the founding fathers said with regard to arming citizens is that they had no idea how much America, as a whole, would eventually grieve the Spirit of God.

♫ When, by His grace, I shall look on His face... ♫ ♫ That will be glory... be glory for me! ♫

The only and best hope for this world is the second advent of The Lord Jesus Christ!

WE HAVE A WINNNER!!! ..................... .....................

I had that issue!

What I think about them doesn't matter! I could burn John 3:16 into my lawn, but I might get locked up by the local authorities, even though the verse is sublimely beautiful! Perhaps I should just do it anyway since it might function as a witnessing tool or effective conversation-starters or...

A very large segment of Christianity today depends significantly upon the enthusiasm afforded by conspiracy theories to fuel a substantial substitute for true faith. This is a very unfortunate reality. People can fabricate conspiracies faster than Christians can investigate to see whether or not...

That's probably why you copy-and-paste lies about them, I guess, and then run and hide (like you're still doing—you won't even admit your wrongdoing) without apologizing when you're busted.
