Paradox: But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die. (Genesis 2:17) And all the days that Adam lived were nine hundred and thirty years: and he died. (Genesis 5:5) Solution: But, beloved, be not...

I'll check it out but I doubt I'll hear anything I haven't heard before. What does Glacier View have to do with the trinity? I once heard audio of GV and I don't remember it coming up at all. Ford stumbled at the Sanctuary doctrine because he'd never had a good Bible Study on it. Plain and...

So sad. I have one sibling, an estranged sister. She's consumed with hate. She can't seem to forgive anyone for anything. It's broken my dad's heart so badly, he gets physically ill over it. She used to idolize me. She's hated me for 11 years now. I can't say I'm entirely blameless. I've prayed...

A little dodgy, eh? You've made yourself very unclear. A copy-and-paste from Wikipedia? Ignatius and Tertullian? Who cares about them? I thought Adventists were "people of the Book." I've never heard any of this stuff in Sabbath School (maybe we skipped over it). :D

That's very clever. What about a Seventh-Day Adventist who doesn't believe in the trinity?

Could we be any more off-topic? What about clean and unclean meats or men wearing long hair?

Sounds a little like commentary.

Restricting the Bride metaphor to ethnic Israel is inconsistent with Paul's reference to the church as spiritual Israel in several places. And dispensationalism has at least somewhat to do with your interpretation. I require nothing; I merely asked if you had any scriptural evidence. If you...

He knew she would object and start talking with him. It's really quite simple.

It was simply his way of drawing her out and suggesting doubt.

This is exactly the kind of thing I was hoping to see. :) Would you have any comments on the verses?

@amadeus It would be amusing if it weren't so sad.

I'm already over it. :)

All I really hoped for was people to contribute their favorite paradoxes. I guess what I should have expected was a Sabbath debate hijack.

I may be taking this too seriously, as I thought you were. If so, I apologize. Nevertheles, for semantics' sake, saying that I can't keep it from becoming debate is not the same as saying it will definitely become debate. Ergo, it has not "become what (I) said it would be." QED-ROTFL

My inability to keep it non-debate has no bearing on my intentions. But I will not argue as to what it is or was or has become. You are free to argue to your heart's content in this thread that was meant to be contributive, mainly. Thank you for your participation. :)

Absolutely not, and you have misrepresented my intentions, if you care to know.

By and large, Americans no longer have the stomach for war. At least, not one that would involve fighting house-to-house on our own soil. We're not as crazy as we are addicted to leisure. No one really believes that things will be so bad if either party prevails that we should engage in...
