The law as you may know it is not eternal. The spirit of the Law is. How do you murder if there is no death? Only by hating. How do you commit adultery without marriage? It is likened to idolatry. How do you practice idolatry without idols? By putting something before God. How do you not...

It depends on what the meaning of the word 'lie' is.

I forgot some: Truth? Believe whatever you want. Deceive others to believe as you do. Faith? Trust in biased humans, consider God powerless. Discipline? Raise your kids to do whatever they want. Report strangers when you see them spank their kids.

If the lies of those Christians promoting sinless perfection lead that guy to kill himself I wouldn't want to be them on the day of judgement. This may also explain why you so strongly teach grace, even going too far as condemning anything you perceive as works.

Jesus answered the tree, in that translation. You take that to mean that the tree spoke. I disagree with that, and believe it is the more archaic use of answer meaning to respond to some event. like when you answer the door when someone knocks on it. One could just as easily argue rocks...

The article I read said a Mercedes veered into oncoming traffic and hit putin's driver. It also sad there is a traffic cam video of the collision.

Hmm... Seems like a big vulnerability on BMWs. With electric power steering tied to the computer, and the ability to update your car's systems automatically. I believe it may be possible for a virus to be installed that would cause an accident. However in this case it was another driver that...

Better to die in nuclear fire than live under the Antichrist. Not that Trump would cause nuclear holocaust, he is too smart to initiate that. I'm sure he would retaliate, and this makes an effective nuclear deterrent. I don't think Hillary would have the nerve to retaliate using our nuclear...

1 Corinthians 1:10 "I appeal to you, brothers and sisters, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree with one another in what you say and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfectly united in mind and thought." So where would these fall? any others to...

Everyone here is intransigent concerning the RCC. That said, I don't see that this discussion is at all edifying and am locking it.

Until someone else sinned... It would take Satan tempting someone else.

1 Corinthians 13:12 is also relevant. I take it to mean what you described above.

Intelligence isn't the problem. The self hating liberals wouldn't be any happier, and ignorance would only increase. Even if people were more knowledgeable, the more you know the more there is to know. People need wisdom, then they wouldn't be so easily deceived by the devil and his agents.

There is a requirement for leaders to be above reproach (1 Timothy 3:2). Indulging in a sin, such as homosexuality, should disqualify them for leadership. The prohibition there would be that they are not above reproach, Where the prohibition for women to teach or lead is that they are women...

True. You may still feel resentment after someone betrays you. It is important to forgive even while you still feel that way. The way you feel in your heart will catch up with your actions eventually.

I take it as figurative language, since the Church is the body of Christ he has power to expel them from himself.

That article proves a few things. 1. She does have a witch spiritual advisor. 2. That person has sense to lie about their client's divinations. 3. You are gullible. I'm sure many people could tell you about personal encounters they have had with demons and Holy angels. I also doubt you would...

So if you started gnawing on Jesus' arm it would taste like wheat bread(unleavened of course). Your teaching Jesus was equally God, man, and bread.

Yes, a major issue with the Church is biblical illiteracy. Then there are those that know the bible and lack decernment. Also the unrighteousness, Sunday morning pew warmers that forget God when they walk out the door. As for hot and cold my opinion differs. Jesus would rather they be cold...

That's better :)
