No translation is perfect. All arguments about translations should be resolved by looking at the original Greek or Ancient Hebrew text. Everyone doesn't need to be a scholar to read the bible, there are many resources at our disposal that expounds upon every verse if there is a concern. It...

I've always had the notion that 2/3 of the population would be condemned on average. It is admittedly baseless.

Actually Jonah was afraid to go to Nineveh, fearing the people would hear him. Then the people would repent and the calamity that would befall them would be averted. Jonah wanted Nineveh to be destroyed.

Its really none of my business if he was or wasn't

I wounder how many false prophets that think they are legit have had some sort of affiliation with the occult. That they are subtly influenced by spirits other than the Lord's and have no idea. I also wounder if the opinions of a legitimate prophet can affect their prophesy.

Giver, To what end are you trying to put into Christians a spirit of fear, that their sins can not be forgiven.

Science is like a small window through which you can catch a glimpse of God's back from a distance. When you think all scientific understanding is within reach your only discover how much there still is to learn. God can only be known through Jesus Christ. As far as other dimensions, it is...

I don't think God is a fault finder, so something is only considered a deliberate sin if the desire to sin comes from your spirit. Any other sin is not attributed to the christian. Could it be that God would rather be silent to someone than risk being ignored, and causing that someone to sin...

It does take faith in science, and even more in the engineering of a plane to be confident that it will not crash.

The only thing you can prove in science is that your wrong. No amount of tests can prove your right.

Romans 14:23 In short you need to follow the leed of the Holy Spirit to avoid sinning. I believe that is the only thing a christian must do to avoid sinning. They don't even need to know a single word of the law. Though it is wise to know all the scriptures so you can test your own discernment.

I would sooner think Joshua 10:12-13 is literal than the Gen. Flood. All that would need to happen is for time to slow around the earth relative to everything else. A global flood would take a whole lot of water.

Welcome!! to you both. :)

The smartest man I know, is also one of the most humble... Guess who that is :D It isn't me :P Seriously, I find wisdom has very little to do with intelligence, so I can't really draw a comparison between a smug Intellectual and God. I believe that the lord being as wise as he is...

FYI: Angelina is in the deliverance ministry and has credibility in these matters. I would believe what she says is.

Paul respected the law of the land, which included slavery. To take a slave from their master would make him a thief. This is why the abolitionists were known to buy slaves in order to free them, as my forefathers did this on at least one occasion. But just because something is the law of the...

We had some snow yesterday, and freezing rain overnight. Tomorrow morning we are having even more snow. But it doesn't really stay around in these parts, usually the snow is gone in a couple of days.

I think this is literal. Jesus appeared to some and not others after his Resurrection. He also came and went mysteriously at that time. Why would it be different for the saints at that time?

Some people enjoy debate, I however don't enjoy an endless back and forth where progress isn't made. By progress I don't necessarily mean your conversion to Christianity, though it is my hope that happens eventually. Progress can also be in at least understanding the truth of what we believe...

I typically copy and paste things into notepad first to remove any strange formatting. Then copy and paste again from notepad. For those who are unaware of notepad it is a basic text editor that comes standard with windows.
