When did Moses see God face to face?

I'd rather not discuss this F. It makes no difference what one believes. There are theologians that believe the Apostle Matthew wrote the gospel. The important point is that it was written and that it's based on reality.

When did the idea of purgatory come about?

I saw a movie about this story. It was very beautiful. Every human just wants peace and to be with family. War is a horror we can't seem to let go. Thanks for posting this!

Right. And it is being done by some ministries. Thanks for reminding us.

Matthew was not written by the Apostle Matthew. It was written much later, and most probably copied from Mark.

Well, SG, here are two comments: 1. We have a some problems with the O.T. because we refuse to believe that it is INSPIRED by God and NOT WRITTEN by God. It's important to understand the difference. The O.T. was written FOUR THOUSAND years ago. Different times, different culture. The men of...

As far as I know, the gospel of John is the only one that was written by an Apostle. Could you state why you don't believe John was the writer? And what about Revelation?

I just read post 1243. Either someone else wrote it and not you OR You just don't like talking to me. Which is fine.

What do you mean E, Dogmas come about without thinking about them?

Of course! Nobody's perfect. You said you're new to Christianity...well, welcome to the club. We're all new...nobody knows everything. It's just important to learn what Jesus taught us about God. And if you hate your neighbor...well, maybe he's the type that's hard to like. If you continue in...

I don't think the results are like magic. I think that we follow the teachings of Christ and that we WILL have a much better life even though it may not seem so....simply because it would have been much worse if we DID NOT know God,,, Also, the result is at the end of life,,,, Do we want to...

Right. As a human we could love them. But, you know, I don't like terrorists. We could pray that they become converted, but that's about it.

By offerings, do you mean to give you solid examples from my life?

3 of 3 There were no other individuals to call except for Adam and Eve! He called BOTH OF THEM and asked what they had done. God wishes ALL to be saved, but not all will be because not all follow God...as you stated at the beginning of this O.P. 2 Peter 3:9 1 timothy 2:4 Romans 1:16 Romans...

2 of 3 Were their eyes opened when they sinned....or did God open their eyes so they could see their sin? Monergism/Synergism Does God have to do everything? Or do we sin on our own? Does God make man sin? Is this part of determinism? If so, how could a just God hold us responsible for our...

Why doesn't Genesis 2:17 say THOU SHALT NOT? God tells Adam YOU SHALL NOT EAT (nasb) that's the same as THOU SHALL NOT. I haven't found this to be true for me. I've strived to understand scripture, and not by my own power but by those that know more than I do. I do believe that anything...

Don't take it with a grain of salt.
