OK F,,,,but I don't know who Nikki is! It may not be here...it's probably a series maybe.

Right. I meant that the N.T. was canonized and put together as a whole book by these men that were called the Early Church Fathers. (not that they wrote it)

You sound very knowledgeable about kids. I just wonder if you teach... No need to reply.

Of course you're right. Nothing trumps the N.T. or what Jesus stated. But was Calvin led by the Holy Spirit? He penned a lot of stuff that this theology goes by. His writings are referred to more than the bible,,,although this is starting to change. Are you aware that it was the Early Church...

Thanks for confirming. I have the Life and Times of Jesus the Messiah but I read it many many years ago. It's a wonderful book and maybe I should read it again. This is also for @Grailhunter Was Hebrews written in Greek ORIGINALLY or was it written with a Greek style? I can't remember and Stan...

You'd be right if you agreed with scripture...but you do not. First of all, only God knows who is saved and not you. Secondly, if calvinist theology is correct, could you explain to me The Lord' Prayer? Matthew 6:13 And do not lead us in to temptation, but deliver us from evil... Jesus...

Some Christian knowledge is not a matter of opinion. We know how the bible was put together.. We know how it was written.... it's not a matter for debate. Just as abortion being murder is not a matter for debate. Just as @Grailhunter does not write the bible YOU also do not write the bible. HE...

I disagree with what you say. I've never heard a Christian person say anything so wrong as you are right now. What God says is this: THOU SHALT NOT KILL. Life is in an embryo from the moment of conception. It's up to God to decide if that embryo goes to term or not. When God worked in...

At some point in the beginning, the O.T. was also translated into Greek. I believe it's the septuagent...

We are the building... They are the builders. I've debated this ad nauseum.... Some believe as you do, and some as I do. Not worth discussing since, yes, we are to build each other up. Agreed on this.

This is also for @Stan B ... Not everything is speculation. (as per him). Biblical scholars are agreed that the N.T. is written in Koine Greek (simple Greek) with a smattering of Aramaic..I don't remember where, but very little. GH, the above is a terrific post. Have some thought on it...

Only the most extreme scientists do not agree that a fetus is a living being. Did you know that there's a spark of light when life begins? This is so interesting and reminds me of Genesis...Let there be light. Do you agree with partial birth abortion? And when would YOU say that live begins...

Not to you.

When we were slaves to satan we were evil. Don't call yourself evil now.... call yourself a child of God that sins. And don't listen to satan.

Most won't read the Early Church Fathers. Unfortunately. Why read those who came right after the Apostles and learned from them? Why read those that PUT TOGETHER THE NEW TESTAMENT? I hear the Holy Spirit did this. All by his lonesome? God works through MEN... These men should be read.

Well, actually I don't agree with your interpretation... 1 Cor 3:9-15 is speaking about Paul and Apollos...NOT US. It's speaking about the teachers and those that WILL grow the church of Christ. Jesus started The the Apostles Then the Early Church Fathers Then all the rest. You don't have to...

I agree. Thanks for writing so much....

No bb..I don't think they have a way to be sure. Someone asked Piper this and he replied that the spirit speaks to the spirit. Yeah, well, sometimes we hear what we want to hear and not what really is. Only those of us that CHOSE GOD can be sure that WE CHOSE HIM. John 3:16

You cannot know for sure, GE,,,as you well know,,,until your time to die comes. Will you be one of those that persevere? ONLY THEY are the chosen. Now think of this... IF I choose God,,,I can know for sure that I am saved.

It's OK Taken....I used to think like this. I'm not trying to convince you, as I said.
