    I have a question that remains unanswered:

    The problem is that 1+1+1 do not equal 1 in human logic. Is God limited to our human logic? o_O

    Hungering And Thirsting After Righteousness... Are We Doing It???

    It is with the knowledge that it creates the most profound paradox that I say: Yes, we should, at least to the point where the most souls can be saved!

    I have a question that remains unanswered:

    @Robert Gwin This link might be helpful, as well: Exodus 3:14 Parallel: And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you. God appears to be calling Himself "I AM" in this verse, does He not? "I AM hath sent me...

    I have a question that remains unanswered:

    Why wouldn't I care? My translator? I don't have any translators. I refer to roughly 45 different English translations. See link here: John 8:58 - Parallel I wouldn't contend that it is, but I have no quarrel with people who say it is. Why do I get the feeling that you're not saying what you...

    Jesus Is God: Part 1

    Good post. I don't think pointing out fallacious categories avails much, to be honest. It usually comes off as intellectualist brow-beating to most people. It's also a tactic favored highly among avowed skeptics, as I'm sure you realize. Plain talk is preferable to me. Meeting people where they...

    The Myth of saying that Jesus Christ died for all men without exception !

    No, I think it is because of this "shred of evidence": The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world. (John 1:29) You see, there's this thing called "common grace." It's not the same as "saving grace." If God were...

    Jesus Is God: Part 1

    But I say unto you, Swear not at all; neither by heaven; for it is God's throne: (Matthew 5:34) Get it? I used the "throne" thing. That's an interesting coincidence, no? :)

    Jesus Is God: Part 1

    Perhaps you should teach a class here on CB. :) That's not my understanding of a straw man at all. The Straw Man Fallacy This fallacy occurs when your opponent over-simplifies or misrepresents your argument (i.e., setting up a "straw man") to make it easier to attack or refute. Instead of...

    Me, too. :) Not sure why you're making the distinction, but okay. :)

    Jesus Is God: Part 1

    Perhaps the question we should be asking ourselves and each other is not so much "can we rightly say 'they' are not Christian" as "should we say 'they' are not Christian?" All things are lawful for me, but all things are not helpful. All things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under...

    Jesus Is God: Part 1

    New International Version But about the Son he says, “Your throne, O God, will last for ever and ever; a scepter of justice will be the scepter of your kingdom. New Living Translation But to the Son he says, “Your throne, O God, endures forever and ever. You rule with a scepter of justice...

    Jesus Is God: Part 1

    This kind of talk is exactly why these discussions never get anywhere. :mad:

    Here is what it all comes down to—- and you’d better get it right!

    Ephesians 6 13Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. 14Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness, 15and having shod your feet with the preparation of...

    Hungering And Thirsting After Righteousness... Are We Doing It???

    Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled. (Matthew 5:6) Let me be the first to confess: I am not doing this to the extent that I believe I should be. It troubles me greatly. I want Jesus to come back for His church as soon as possible. But I...

    I have a question that remains unanswered:

    Only one of the roughly 30 English translations on Biblehub.com capitalizes the word "spirit" in this verse, and it is not worded as you have quoted it. Aramaic Bible in Plain English But Yeshua cried again with a loud voice, and his Spirit departed. It seems likely that you provided the...
