I do not have to, Christ and the Apostles did it.

I understand. A person that has insight into the spiritual....what do call that? Most would call that a mystic. As far as people not believing you....you might be surprised that although people believe in the Bible, they do not expect anything to happen outside the Bible. I have had several...

You so funny. Ignorance is bliss. I say that with humor. Hopefully you are not real old and are new to the Bible. Let's look at the other side of the coin....what is going on with the Israelites with their women being considered as property, is very similar with other cultures of the time...

God is real, the physical is real, and the spiritual is real and man is real....so the Bible is real....That is clear right? The point is that it all has a spiritual connection. There is enough with that to keep us busy.

I disagree. I will give you a happy face for every person you find on this forum that thinks that "works"...or Good Deeds will save them or are required to get to heaven. I will give you a most, most of the time when people say this they are preaching to choir.

Are you thinking on taking in some Pagans for slaves any time soon? Planning on selling your daughter as a sex slave? Ahhhh! What will Christ think? You think that God made a comment on that? Nope! Wives and concubines were treated as property, but concubine were purchased as sex...

Transubstantiation and Consubstantiation and trying to figure the substance of God are not extremes or middle or anything. They are man speculating on things that they cannot not prove or maybe comprehend. Christ said to do it....I did it.

@stunnedbygrace @Randy Kluth We have gotten of a little off topic....which is alright. Good topics, if you would like to start a thread I would be happy to join you in a discussion. I do not get into sins of the heart because we do not have a meter for that. And ultimately it becomes a double...

Sins of the heart is a topic in itself. But it is not hate to be intolerant of sin. Yes that is all we can do and it is the correct thing to do. Christ will judge the inside of the cup on Judgment Day. Homosexuals are the outside of the cup...really do not care about their hearts. We condemn...

I said the average Christian is not a murderer and also... Your average Christian is not going to make a life out of drugs. Your average Christian is not going to be an abortion doctor or staff. Your average Christian is not going to be a serial killer. Your average Christian is not gong to be a...

I call this circle talk. Think about what you say....will it lead people down the wrong path?....will you be standing in front of Christ on Judgment Day having to answer for damned souls? See I do not have to worry about this. I say if you are a Christian and want to go to heaven, Beeee Goood...

The problem is that this is a relatively large body of scriptures that are very clear that also described the reaction of those that heard Christ words. Those that he was talking to did not continue the conversation. His own Apostles reacted to it negatively. His disciples that followed Him...

So how many Mosaic Law regulated Hebrew and Pagan slaves? There are things permitted with in the Mosaic Law that are considered immoral by Christian standards. The Mosaic Law permitted a father to sell his daughter as a sex slave....concubinage....and the Mosaic Law never condemned polygamy in...

As with these two scriptures here... Roman 8:1 There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. Galatians 5:21 “Now the deeds of the flesh are evident, which are: immorality, impurity, sensuality, idolatry, sorcery, enmities, strife, jealousy, outbursts of anger...

Well it is a new topic. You can go through and look at each person and see that they speak to both ends of the spectrum. So you can see what I am saying is there. You can watch the debates here and see that a lot of people have picked one end of the spectrum or the other. And because they have...

They are not at war. They are two ends of the spectrum, spoken by the same person and this happens throughout the New Testament on the most important topics by almost all that are writing l You should read the opening statements to understand what this is about. This whole thing here looks...

No I do not. His beliefs he had no problem expressing. The Mosaic Law was not abolished because the Jews are still in that covenant. But still obsolete for those in the New Covenant. Hebrew 8:13 In that he saith, A new covenant, he hath made the first old. Now that which decayeth and waxeth...

If you can find an example of sprinkling baptism in the Bible, you would take us all to school. You do not have to do that. (mysticism) All you have to do is take Christ at His word. Baptism is important but Christ did not back baptism as much as He did communion.

James was a Jewish Christian and Paul was a Gentile Christian, even though He was Jewish, and He had special instruction from Christ. Christ Laws are vastly superior to anything the Old Covenant could offer. Remember polygamy and selling your daughter as a sex slave was covered by the 613...

If you can find sprinkle baptisms in the Bible, you will help us all out. As far as the bread and wine ritual goes and the spiritual aspects of it...I doubt it we can comprehend it. Christ thought it was important enough to risk His ministry. Also explained what would happen if you did not...
