When Paul spoke in the meeting of the Areopagus it was to people who were open to new ideas.(Acts 17:21) They may have been receptive to the gospel. You can tell when people are obstinate in their beliefs, and hostile to the gospel. That is when you should stop trying to convince them...

Test yourself 1 John 4:2 "Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God:"

Nope, these are sins common to mankind. Generational curses are more specific, and inherited. Perhaps Angelina would care to discuss in a new topic.

So then if everyone but you is mistaken about the context of those verses, what about this one? John 6:53-58 53 Jesus said to them, “Very truly I tell you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you. 54 Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has...

I agree. Genetics do not account for the specificity of inherited sins. Genetic mutations also result in a host of other effects that would seem totally unrelated due to the compressed encoding of DNA.

I think it is important to say here that what it isn't possible for man is possible for God. I am sure It is possible for a liar to repent if they are willing. The problem is liars lack discernment, and are not able to see the danger their soul is in. They are in a deadly trap from which only...

So... wheres the hope in your message?

I just got home and was in the process of closing it. It seems no one but Stan is willing to follow my requests.

Your comments have also been vehement and divisive. I think its unhealthy for Christians to be so invested in these worldly political issues that it leads to heated disputes between brothers. <Moderator hat on> To all involved, please refrain from the personal attacks or insults. Regardless...

Is surrendering your parental rights as easy as sending your children away? I think not. They shouldn't have it both ways, abandoning their children and then wanting to be reunited? If the governments weren't so corrupt they would be working to get the parents arrested for child endangerment...

I've been thinking about the legality of this situation. Suppose a child came to a US embassy seeking asylum. Children don't have the right to choose to leave their families until they reach adulthood, or until they claim emancipation at a minimum of age 16 in most states. The asylum request...

It should be easier to fix our immigration system to more readily grant asylum. At least River Jordan poses valid concerns without reverting to straw-man arguments.

Here is a novel idea, let's send the kids back to their parents.

How can you say communion is contrary to what the king taught? Aren't you aware of this command from the King? 1 Corinthians 11:24 I do not place much value on tradition, but sometimes there is a spiritual significance to it.

Welcome Jim! I look forward to reading your contributions.

The historical trends are telling. What is the probability that significant events for the Jewish people would occur as in post 13 during these times as opposed to other times? Pretty slim by my reasoning. The more improbible the coincidence, the more likely God is involved. I'm 80% sure...

Here we are approaching the passover. I wounder if this will mark the end of US support for Israel when they reject the nuclear agreement that has been hashed out with Iran.

I didnt want to draw this into a gun debate, so lets look at violence in general. If people are becoming more immoral violent crime should increase. But I've looked at the statistics and violent crimes have been decreasing since the 90s. What then is the moral decline doing to society?

Rep. Senator Sylvia Allen's off the cuff proposal would help with the declining morals in the US that is leading to increased gun violence. Ironically she hit the nail on the head but all people can see is the compulsory church attendance part.
