    IT'S TIME TO SPEAK UP

    No. Acting homosexually was always bad.

    IT'S TIME TO SPEAK UP

    You got it backwards as usual. SOME ‘differences’ are bad.

    IT'S TIME TO SPEAK UP

    The converse is true. Because they DO BAD, I hate them.

    JESUS, The Prince = Isaiah 9;6

    One way to know this is not prophetic text is the fact that Isaiah is talking present tense, not some 6 centuries in the future.

    Zondervan Publishers presents: Peter Enns: Five Views on Biblical Inerrancy

    You think that is what I was referring?

    IT'S TIME TO SPEAK UP

    LOL. Educating children must begin with what is right and wrong, good and evil. Pretending these are just "different" is not education at all but indoctrination. This is why if I could give one parenting advice to parents of young children, it is to home school. Exposing children to the filth...

    IT'S TIME TO SPEAK UP

    Agh, the generalizing to the point of dishonesty and white washing the whole debate. Some "differences" are bad.

    Zondervan Publishers presents: Peter Enns: Five Views on Biblical Inerrancy

    Nice thesis statement! Rasha has a good vid on this topic also. In short, those in the dark attempt to use a false scientific or semantic standard to conclude error. There are ‘errors’ in the Bible IF you want to interpret it incorrectly.

    IT'S TIME TO SPEAK UP

    Throughout my life, I have observed 2 general pathways of the Adversary. In politics, appeal to coveting via "socialized medicine," which is more deeply tied to fear, obviously seen in global warming, the China virus, etc. In individual morals, appeal to lust via normalization of sexual...

    Literal or Figurative - versus - Concrete or Abstract

    You seem to be taking this personally. With all due respect, you are throwing out the baby with the bath water. I have no idea how you justify dismissing the figurative language of Scripture based on one denomination's doctrine. Furthermore, there is no basis to suppose @FaithWillDo is...

    IT'S TIME TO SPEAK UP

    I am repeatedly disappointed that people in our society, in general, and Christians, in particular, are expected to tolerate all this nonsense (as my wife calls it), all these abnormal people interacting with kids at school. Our resident LGBT advocate constantly demands proof and evidence - as...

    Literal or Figurative - versus - Concrete or Abstract

    Jack, @FaithWillDo has presented compelling Scripture several times of God not speaking literally. Why can't you accept that? I tend to stay away from apocolyptic/tribulation threads. However, this thread is not about that but the different literary devices used by Biblical authors. When I 1st...

    More passive aggressiveness. While your concern for my making effective use of time is touching, is cutting my losses why you mentioned me in post #7?

    Me too. All things to all people so some may be saved.

    Literal or Figurative - versus - Concrete or Abstract

    Passive aggressive. Maybe you are not thinking it through enough - and I mean certainly.

    IT'S TIME TO SPEAK UP

    We all know you disagree with me! God is NOT only love but just. The wrath of God is a fearsome thing. Are you a universalist?

    Literal or Figurative - versus - Concrete or Abstract

    I strongly disagree! It is because of the glorious and beautiful flowering of the Holy Spirit that explains why we have so many denominations. Each attract a different group in need of Christ. Like diets, the ‘drastically different’ beliefs all work when you stick to them in terms of bring...

    IT'S TIME TO SPEAK UP

    A whole lot? More like everyone NEEDS Christ. The next level of detail informs our response. What type of person are you dealing with? One who confesses her sin and admits she needs a lord and savior? One who is in darkness about his need but knows their his life is messed up? One who is lost...

    Not one little bit. Here is a non-theological example of an OP with a thesis statement right off the bat. Thesis statement. Math works. Supporting Evidence. EXAMPLE 1 EXAMPLE 2 EXAMPLE 3 Hook (why people ought to participate in thread). Do you agree? If not what examples show math does...
