    Edward Fudge: Hero Or Heretic?

    KJV Ezekiel 33 11 Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord GOD, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel? So what is it. How do we understand what God is saying...

    Are you sure we're not agreeing?

    Indeed, the law was changed. But how, and why? For the priesthood being changed, there is of necessity a change made in the law. What was the change in the priesthood that necessitated a change in the law...and what was that change???

    Edward Fudge: Hero Or Heretic?

    You still haven't yet shown from scripture that humans are immortal...and to separate soul from body is unbiblical...even Greek paganism. And in any other context semantics would be "proof text". Maybe we won't agree. I feel sorry for you that the God you believe in is capable of what you are...

    Edward Fudge: Hero Or Heretic?

    And an ongoing mindset inherited from the dark ages when those who believed such things thought it appropriate to give heretics a "taste" in order to deter them from continuing in their "apostasy". Tis a scary thing when we consider that the christ they believe in is the one whom they seek to...

    Edward Fudge: Hero Or Heretic?

    My greatest objection to eternal torment as a concept is the picture it provides as to the character of God. And it offends me greatly that Christians who would in any other context promote God as loving and gracious, merciful and just, in this particular context cast Him off as a tyrant with a...

    Edward Fudge: Hero Or Heretic?

    I'm not much of a wordsmith or English grammatical expert, but I think what you have posted above would be called a false equivalence. Allow me to demonstrate... I drove my car into the wreckers, with spluttering and belching smoke and grinding of parts....there to abide forever. It doesn't mean...

    Edward Fudge: Hero Or Heretic?

    Except you cannot prove this from scripture. Scripture does not show the lake of fire as being eternal at all. Scripture says it can't be put out. Well, the fires here in Victoria couldn't be put out either. Many of them went out by themselves because they ran out of fuel. Not being able to put...

    Christians and the Law of Moses

    Stop being so combative and follow the conversation. You may learn something. The "no" I offered as a reply was to a question put to me by @BOWnQUIVER , as it seems to misunderstand my earlier response. So first, you've butted in on a conversation that was interpersonal, and second, your...

    Christians and the Law of Moses

    So in order to be saved in the OT you needed to be obedient to all the commandments? The "age of the law"? But in the NT, you only need Jesus.... grace?

    If You Believe Your Denomination Is...

    Considering those teachings are less than 100 years old and completely contradict her own behaviors for the previous 1500, it probably won't be that much of a sacrifice to ignore them.

    What Keeps Us From Sinning In Heaven?

    This was your first post on this thread. Your first sentence. Makes this one... Look somewhat redundant don't you think?

    Christians and the Law of Moses

    We read that love is the fulfilling of the law. Paul tells us explicitly what law that is... KJV Romans 13 Love One Another 8 Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law. 9 For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou...

    Christians and the Law of Moses

    I agree. Let me ask you a question. How is God going to judge if you have loved or not? By what standard is He going to judge you by?

    If You Believe Your Denomination Is...

    Absolutely... Which you are fully aware of. And before you start going off on some tangent, don't miss the point I am making when I say Catholicism is a different religion than the rest. Catholics themselves admit this. It isn't a controversial statement to make, and it isn't insulting. It is a...

    What Keeps Us From Sinning In Heaven?

    Oh boy. Where is your sense of humor? You seem to be wound up tighter than my vacuum cleaner power cord. One slight touch and it retracts taking your legs out with it from beneath you. Look. None of us hold the Bible in contempt. You can exalt yourself and beef up your formidable education till...
