Sadly, man-hating feminists cannot extend the same curtesy about men feeling good about being masculine. In politics, a week before the election Trump was criticized by feminists for saying in part, ‘even if women don’t want it.’ This was twisted to suggest he’s a sexist. In context, the rest...

This exchange show cases the propensity for people to incorrectly categorize things as a contradiction. A contradiction is when 2 things cannot both be true at the same time and context. In this case, we are talking about 2 things that CAN be true at the same time, which is not a contradiction...

I know you had a well developed answer. ☺️

No. In fact, I read a great section last night that @VictoryinJesus would benefit from on guarding against reading into Scripture what is not there in Demolishing Supposed Bible Contradictions by Ken Ham: Historical narrations should be taken in the normal (literal) way. Poetic passages in the...

You are only considering the eternal consequences of sin. I explained in this post how, in what context, a woman is saved by child birth. Child birth is proof that she was not guilty of the infidelity she was charged with in Numbers 5.

Devotional reading of Numbers 15 today revealed more Biblical inequality. v 11 & 24 specifify male lamb and goat to be sacrificed. V27 specifies a female goat. I don't really understand the difference between a burnt offering, grain offering from an unintentional sin offering but there it is. I...

Great observation! Music has dramatically declined since the 60's in terms of melodic and lyrical variation. One of the greatest books I ever read is the 1920's Oswald Spengler's Decline of the West. In it, he said art is a leading indicator of a society's decline. He marks the release in 1808...

Understood. Recognizing literal consequences, literal accountability certainly involves stress. It is not right to add words to Scripture just to torture the words to fit our doctrine. Rather, we should adjust our doctrine to fit the words. Great question! @Aunty Jane is big on denying the...

So, I've been told. Trouble is, that is NOT what the text says. Inserting the word "spiritually" is not right.

My prayers are with you. I recall when the situation was reversed. In fact, I was thinking just last week about that fateful last night. Getting out of college, I got a job 2,000 miles away. This was my last night living in the Boston area. My mother asked me what I wanted for dinner. My...

This is similar to the apparent contradiction of God saying the day Adam and Even eat the forbidden fruit they will die. Sure enough, 900+ years later, they died. In the original language, the word means begin to die.

Tonight, I'm making chili for the first time this season. For years I did this on Halloween. My community celebrates Halloween the weekend before the actual day to minimize tragic accidents from people coming home from work in the dark. This year was the first year they celebrated on Saturday...

I untwisted your false claim. The Spirit of God is literally given to a person not a womb, as you claim.

Another false dichotomy. Just because something is literal does not mean it is not spiritual. Of course there is a literal and earthly Jerusalem, yes. You know that most words have different senses. In one sense, Jerusalem is a city in Israel. (Call this city a literal or earthly city if it...

False dichotomy. It is simultaneously literal, Spiritual and supernatural. No different than how you are simultaneously a literal daughter, a literal mother and a literal wife or I simultaneously a a literal son, a literal brother, and a literal father and a literal husband.

I'm not exactly sure what the thesis of the OP is. However, Christians are to be wise. We must think what is before us and not focus on the fine feast at the king's table, i.e., what the world would have us do. I gave him a piece of my mind. I told him off. This is "strong" and considered...

Of course our failing to be Godly is literal. Not just your failure sister, but all of us literally fail. We all literally sin. If none of these failings are literally true, there was no reason for Jesus to literally die horribly on a cross and literally be resurrected. That was a good post...

Always. The same is true in politics and recently stated in a vid I watched the other day. The host stated the Democrats CANNOT acknowledge the reason millions of people support Trump. They suffer cognitive dissonance Anyone who supports Trump is garbage. I will unite the American people. I've...

@face2face, this post is so convoluted, which is a departure from your normally well thought out posts. I truly cannot grasp how you are connecting what you are connecting in any of the points you made. This is most obvious in your claim what the whole section is about (shown in red) compared to...

@ Mark 8:20 Jesus says, "It is what comes from inside that defiles you." Within a person's heart comes evil thoughts. Then he lists these: sexual immorality theft murder adultery greed wickedness deceit lustful desires envy slander pride foolishness I color coded them to show the overlap of...
