Hi Mayflower, If you really wanted to have a Woman's Forum, you'd have to get the administration involved and the program adjusted so that males could not participate. I've seen this on other Forums and it might not work since there aren't too many topics to talk about. I also saw your other...

Oh stop being so nice. It might become a habit.

Hi Aspen, I checked the CCC. I must say that it's rather confusing at times. You noticed how it says "sometimes" it could mean a separation between the soul and spirit. This is why I asked you to ask someone and not get the info from the CCC... I was told that they're teaching the triune...

Are you bothering the girls again? Don't scare them!

You wouldn't want to escape Rollo's harem. He does bible studies, He tells stories, He makes up names for you, He gives you compliments every now and then to keep you interested, He likes music, etc etc It's not so bad.

She looks Scotish... Didn't see this either! Time to sign off.

Hi LC, The total depravity of man is an important aspect of your theology so I wanted to spend some time on it. After the fall, man did become depraved. I don't like using that word, but for the sake of conversation, let's just say that he did not become TOTALLY depraved. He DID acquire a...

Yes. Under the sun could also mean doing the things that the living do. The dead no longer do the things the living do. I also do not believe in soul sleep. We're either alive always, or we die completely. Jesus made it clear that we go to heaven at death...Paul also spoke to this. No time...

If salvation were based on our performance, we'd all go to the hot place. Later. Company for lunch. I want to write re the condition of man. We are depraved, but not totally depraved as you believe...

LC! IF is a VERY BIG WORD!! IF changes everything! But, believe what you will, as long as you believe I guess. I do wish you'd come to know the real God of the bible, but your decision. YES. You're decision. You DO have free will. Try reading the bible again with this in mind and you'll see...

You're not following Plato. And we understand a lot more about the body and soul today than hundreds of years ago. Also, The body and soul do NOT make up the spirit because only born again believers have a spirit which is connected to God. Non-believers do not have a spirit, or some will say...

Aspen, The Catholic church believes in the trichotomy of man. Man has three parts: Body Soul Spirit Check this out with your priest or somebody that knows. Not all priests remember their theology... This is what the CC believes:

I know you have to believe that God saved you with absolutely no input from you or He would just completely lose His sovereignty, but names that are written in the book of Life can also be blotted out. I gave you two scriptures. You can only blot out something that was written in the first...

That's all good. But how about exegeting the verse I gave you? Again... Colossians 1:22-23 22yet He has now reconciled you in His fleshly body through death, in order to present you before Him holy and blameless and beyond reproach— 23 if indeed you continue in the faith firmly established and...

If you can tell me about this mystery of yours, cloaked in secretspeak,. I'll provide you with some scripture.

Who can understand humans? They're a silly bunch. I think he experienced some envy. That's why it's so great to know the creator of the universe! He loves His greatest creation and stays a friend for as long as we want Him!!

Hi soulspark... Hey, it's those gut wrenching, twisted stories that we so love!! JK. Welcome to the forum. We have all types here. Friends are available... Be seeing you around. P.S. I can't decide on an avatar,,, so I change it every now and then. Some have had theirs for YEARS. Dontcha...

Everything you've said is correct and accepted theology by the mainstream. I just would like to add that the verses the other posts speaks about regarding the dead knowing nothing; their emotions are perished; etc... go back to the O.T. Some in the O.T. times did not believe in life after...

I do see a lot of twisting of scripture. But, of course, this is because I believe I've learned from those that are correct in their theology! Those that disagree with me feel exactly the same way. But, yes, I do feel the NT is taken much too lightly these days. I wonder if this is what...

Interesting question. In Mathew 28 Jesus sent the APOSTLES out to teach and preach and baptize. It does require a gift to witness properly; the same method does not apply to everyone, for example. But the bible also tells us to be ready to give an explanation of our faith in 1 Peter 3:15, but...
