    What's the weather like where you are?

    Those tracks on the road are mine from my board. Speed. Never mind your fancy tricks... Just go hard.;)

    Jesus Is God: Part 1

    There is much in your quote I agree with. Yes, Jesus was a man and certainly could empathize and sympathize with our lives and temptations... His temptations as you say were very real. He inherited the very same weaknesses we inherit from our ancestors. He can from a line of prostitutes...

    Jesus Is God: Part 1

    I think it important that we share a true perspective of Father Son relationships from a Godly example... There are many who through a less than ideal and even abusive relationship with their own human fathers cannot envisage a Father God being any better, particularly in light of false theories...

    Why do you feel it is so hard to be good?

    A deeper study of the Sabbath Commandment reveals that it was set aside in love for man to give man the opportunity to use it for the benefit of others. Notice in the commandment it says, KJV Deuteronomy 5:14 14 But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any...

    Victorian Earthquake 5.9 magnitude

    Thought I was back home. Getting homesick now. Although geoservices Oz have downgraded to 4.0 . Be interesting to know if it's related to volcanic activity on Buller.

    Why do you feel it is so hard to be good?

    Yet Jesus found it necessary to explain the deeper meaning of murder when He spoke of hatred. Despite the law everyone knew from birth. And that's aspects of the law that one will never learn from a change of heart or the Spirit. For example, the 4th Commandment which can be obeyed only on the...

    Jesus Is God: Part 1

    It is in line with Orthodox Trinitarianism. But me, being somewhat rebellious throughout my life, have my doubts whether it's actually correct. I believe the Father/Son paradigm is literal ontologically. That the Son is a literal offspring of the Father... It was God Himself who initiated the...

    Jesus Is God: Part 1

    Here a copy of the official SDA belief currently. It isn't a Creed as all our briefs are open to change as we grow in understanding. The Trinity There is one God: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, a unity of three coeternal Persons. God is immortal, all-powerful, all-knowing, above all, and ever...

    Jesus Is God: Part 1

    Does not the above contradict... Which specifically deals with how God is in His nature? This is what cannot be explained... How the persons of the Godhead have their unity together. I have seen certain explanations of the Catholic version of the trinity which state that none of the members can...

    Dear Addy

    I've found it difficult to pop in here because there's no subject... Just when I'm starting to take aim at something the goal posts move. Maybe I should take up Australian Rules Football. You get a point when you miss.

    Jesus Is God: Part 1

    My biggest gripe with trinitarians is to believe that the trinity doctrine is the only way to confess Jesus as deity. Because they presume that all non trinitarians automatically believe Jesus is not God, they miss the depth of understanding that a literal begotten Son of God the Father is the...

    Jesus Is God: Part 1

    Better to burn them all yeah, so they can't contaminate others? Can I ask you to do something for me please? Please explain the Trinity on a simple way that removes all mystery, in a way you can not only understand it well but teach it in a way others can understand it also. I'm not interested...

    Why do you feel it is so hard to be good?

    Not too many people do, no. But the ones who despise others for no reason... Like Christians who despise Muslims, and democrats, and evangelicals, and Adventists, and Catholics, and left wing university professors, and....

    Wisdom

    Done that. "How dare you offend me!!!". Haven't said that ever... Too obvious... But thought it. Pride can even silence us.

    Telling random strangers that Jesus loves them

    There are only two people in my house... My wife and I. I have to wait for the bathroom. But I'm on my own. Can you have lines of 1?

    A False Teaching about the Cross and Jesus being Crucified

    You are defending the theory that Christ took the unfallen nature of Adam. That to take on man's sin nature is akin to Christ sinning. So basically you are suggesting that Christ was never fully human at all. As I suggested above, you are supporting, at least partly, the immaculate conception...

    A False Teaching about the Cross and Jesus being Crucified

    A further issue is the real problem at the heart of all discussions of the human nature of Christ. Does having a sinful nature make one a sinner and in need of a Saviour? If this issue could be resolved, we would have no more disagreements over the humanity of Christ. Richard Taylor put it very...
