    What is the gospel?

    Unbiblical implies the concept isn't in scripture. It is there if you do a bit of hermeneutics.

    Declaring Christianity in Application?

    You paint a very bleak picture. Yes, the devils will disobey the employment laws as they have a more important agenda to achieve. But not all companies are run by devils. If it is a small company chances are they employer is conservative, as you can't run a small company successfully without...

    What is the gospel?

    I see, Isaiah 53:8 would show that.

    What is the gospel?

    The first three quoted certainly do refer to Jesus paying the price for our sins. The price is his shed blood.

    Declaring Christianity in Application?

    It really depends on where your applying if it will make a difference or not. To me it would look really good to list involvement in some kind of charity. It would be better than leaving an obvious void, for them to wonder what your interests really are.

    Your view on the US presidential election.

    I don't believe the polls right now, just look what happened with Brexit.

    Your view on the US presidential election.

    A little narrative: Uncle Sam lays in his hospital bed, years of alcohol abuse has destroyed his liver and his days are numbered without a transplant. The doctor comes in and gives him more bad news, he also has cancer and his heart is 90 percent blocked. His advanced age and frailty make any...

    What argument do you personally use to justify the existence of God?

    I would avoid humanist arguments such as, I believe in God because I want him to exist. Our desire is irrelevant to the existence of God, or any truth for that matter. Humanist ideals are the backbone of relativism.

    Predestination, All Things are Determined by God, Even the Outcome of a Roll of a Dice

    Consider jeremiah 20:9 But if I say, “I will not mention his word or speak anymore in his name,” his word is in my heart like a fire, a fire shut up in my bones. I am weary of holding it in; indeed, I cannot. This reveals a spiritual aspect of decision making, jeremiah is a slave to...

    An Opinion about rituals "in religions:"

    Thats the Catholic paraphrased version of John 16:13. I prefer to receive my bread from the Holy Spirit, and not from a third party with a side of abuse.

    Predestination, All Things are Determined by God, Even the Outcome of a Roll of a Dice

    I'm glad to see at least someone believes in the sovereignty of God these days. How do you answer the argument by those who believe God unjust for condemning people when he is the one whom predestined them for destruction?

    Love your enemies

    I can't speak for King David, but we are not to hate any people. John 3:16

    Love your enemies

    It is for God to judge David. He was not given the teachings from Jesus Christ that we now take for granted. God is also permitted to hate who he wants. He knows who will repent and who will not. His anger slowly builds even while he blesses those who hate him.

    Love your enemies

    If you consider the economy of saving souls, it is better to protect your own people first so they have the opertunity to be saved. If we consider personal enemies it makes more sense to turn the other cheek, as they may be turned by your atypical behavior. But never are we to hate any enemy...
