We are not talking about what power I do or do not have. I just stated a fact: I have been purposing a solution in accordance with the word of God (below)...and you are against the very idea. That explains everything. Proverbs 22:6 Train up a child in the way he should go, And when he is old he...

My solution is according to the word of God...and you are against it: Proverbs 22:6 Train up a child in the way he should go, And when he is old he will not depart from it.

This comment sums up the crux of the problem, and where you have it all wrong. The dog analogy was yours. But if we are to use it correctly, then your dog crapping all over and you having to pick up after it, is a good example of letting generations of kids have their way and eventually loosing...

No, you are "tolerating" your dog instead of teaching him, and then blaming the dog for being a dog. But again, even "automatic weapons" have nothing to do with it. The only way that analogy works is if no one were killed anymore by knives or clubs. Then you could say, "See, that was then and...

The use of virgin birth by God is a demonstration or like the saying by Christ, "The kingdom of heaven is like..." The same is true of His use of the term "Son of Man" as opposed to referring to Himself as the Son of God. In fact, the two together, are like bookends wherein lies salvation. The...

You are dodging the issue with your 1-2-3 examples. We could discuss those, but that would help you in not facing the actual problem. And the rule of law comment is a dodge too...the country was also founded on freedom from law. But, continuing with the issue at hand and your question: All you...

The problem is: what makes people resort to gun violence...or knife violence, or club violence, etc., and not the guns, knives, clubs, etc. are not the problem. You are purposing a band aid on the hand or foot of a person with a brain tumor. I am suggesting we leave the hand and foot alone and...

Frightened people would only be a small percentage. But, there again, you have not properly identified the problem and are acting out of prejudice - "frightened people" are not the problem. No, but Joshua and David did, and even Jesus indicated there was a time to take up the sword: Luke 22:36...

No, you're not making sense on any level here. Your logic is all backwards. You don't keep the wolves away by dropping your guard...and there are wolves. Even if the odds are slim to none, you always go with slim as opposed to none. So your argument of surrender without a fight because of the...

You are missing the point. The right is not limited to guns, but to "arms", which would change with the times. But guns are not outdated yet, neither are knives or clubs for that matter. None of which will fix the problem of the mental tipping point that actually causes the problems we are now...

I certainly agree. But it is a good idea to consider the significance of a virgin birth in God's design for salvation, just as it is for considering the significance of referring to Jesus as the "Lamb" of God, or any other parable use of language. It should be a revelation.

Okay, fair enough. So guns are like seat belts, plastic bag warnings, high voltage, etc... But none of those are a defense against tyranny, and yet we have regulations on them all already. The only thing missing is some way of regulating the unstable. The problem is, England would have defined...

"Roofing" and faith seem opposed to one another too. :)

I am okay with that...but I hope you can see how silly this idea is getting. I mean, remove the word "gun" from our last several posts and replace it with say... "roofing", and people with roofs and roofing manufacturers must surely be up to no good - those roofing material manufacturers, are...

Yeah, I could do without the lobby system too. But I am not sure the interest of gun owners would be any different than the gun companies.

I'm H-I-J-A-C-K-I-N-G this dead thread :) Soooo....what would be God's purpose behind the idea of a virgin birth - what would be the point? Lord knows it's not for naught. What say you?

I agree. But the regulations should target the problem and not the general right to keep and bear arms. But therein lies the problem. Regulating the problem means regulating morality which is a tricky prospect. As a society we have done just the opposite. Kids can legally divorce their parents...

Unless you consider this the end of the world with nothing more to be learned, you might want to not just go where you find it comfortable, but do a little less pushing your own agenda and a little more listening with the idea of seeking "all truth" as it was appointed to the Holy Spirit for our...

Sounds like: “Has God indeed said...?"

What GodsGrace has pointed out, is that you are presenting a double standard, being for other books, but against the books of the bible, and sighting the same reason for doing both. It is you who are not being open, but are being biased, and biased for books of your own choosing, but against...
