Eating is getting expensive, period. I mean, give me a break, right? My wife complains more than she ever has about the price of groceries. :(

Inflammation is the likely culprit. Some people are born inflamed (me, for instance). Can you take pineapple or pineapple juice? :)

Amen to all of that, Sister!

Should we understand from Peter's words that God had people stoned to death for breaking rules that were/are impossible to keep? Do you think the unbearable yoke was healthful living? Could it have been partly the thick, additional layer of Pharisaical requirements that were meant to carnally...

All seriousness aside, this has got to be one of your best posts ever! :cool:

I don't know what you mean here. Again, puzzled. I don't think it has anything to do with standards of health, do you? I wouldn't recommend that anyone try to keep themselves ceremonially pure. Christ has fulfilled that requirement. :)

There's always turkey bacon. lol :p

Okay. I'm just a seed sower. :)

Do you think God had people stoned to death for breaking rules that were/are impossible to keep? Do you think if everyone just did what they think is right that God would be pleased and save them? There are many remote tribes and peoples who have almost no sense of right and wrong. Is our duty...

If someone told you that God doesn't really mean what He says and that made you feel better about eating bacon, would you think they were being gracious to you? :)

Ephesians 2:8 For it is by grace you have been saved through faith, and this not from yourselves; it is the gift of God, Romans 3:31 Do we, then, nullify the law by this faith? Certainly not! Instead, we uphold the law.

You've got the wrong guy. I'm scared of mods. :D

How did this turn into a discussion about eternal security?

WADR, I've never encountered an offline Bible discussion situation where Christians were frequently calling into question other Christians' standing with God, intelligence, and even sanity to their face. Except for one individual who was fairly quickly encouraged to fellowship elsewhere...

You completely missed the point of the OP.

I see an awful lot of instances of people telling others they are cultists, not Christians, or that they are lost. An awful lot of it. And it is diametrically opposed to forum rules.

Because we're all on a Christian Forum. There are no churches, homes, schools, or businesses here. It wouldn't bother me at all if this thread were closed. I've completely failed to make my point clear enough, and my intentions are being almost totally misunderstood. I suppose it will fizzle...
