    Apparitions of the Virgin Mary

    What you are talking about is something you believe. Nothing in the Bible or history.

    Apparitions of the Virgin Mary

    Yes I understand. Hades is Greek. As I said it is a Greek god. The apostles had the task of writing Christian scriptures into a Pagan language. It is for certain that the Apostles were not thinking of a Greek god or his realm. Translating Christ words into a Pagan language had its inherit issues...

    I'm a Christian and I support the legality of same-sex marriage

    The whole NT is based on imminent urgency! That is one of the reasons that there was not a focus on the family. So no, you are wrong. They did not know when it was going to occur but it was all based on the belief that the time was short....never that the time would be millenniums.

    Apparitions of the Virgin Mary

    To make the leap that every baby born on this earth is born with sin.....!!!! It is going to take much more than that for me. People have beliefs that are outside the scriptures and you know I cannot criticize that! lol But in my beliefs, when a baby dies, angels escort its soul to heaven...no...

    Apparitions of the Virgin Mary

    You know that might be right. lol David was a character. If my mom and dad were not married, whether I was really conceived in sin is one thing and actually is another, but it could be said. David's mom might have been married to another....you know how David is a fan of adultery. Maybe his mom...

    I'm a Christian and I support the legality of same-sex marriage

    Now this will do you good. Comb through the entire NT and list all scriptures that refer to the last days, last times, the time is short, the time has been shortened, and Christ's return is to occur quickly. You will never find that even months or years are mentioned, much less centuries or...

    Apparitions of the Virgin Mary

    If you talking about the fact that the sin of Eden would cause the death of Adam and Eve and their descendants...that is pretty much the storyline. God said ~~ On the day you eat of it, you shall surely die....well it is apparent that He meant that on that day he would start to die. But that is...

    Apparitions of the Virgin Mary

    You are going to have to study a little deeper. For one, how do you think Hades got into the KJV? lol Hades is a Geek god...that presides over a realm called Hades. The Hades does not appear in the OT or the NT....Find the reason why the KJV wanted to use it. The reasoning will be close to the...

    King James Version Only...?

    This is a short list to go along with the others. Mostly verses that appear in the King James Version that are not in scriptures or in the older manuscripts. The NIV Bibles do not include them and the NASB puts them in brackets and notes the discrepancy. Of course the Comma Johanneum Addition...

    Apparitions of the Virgin Mary

    Not picking on you but you brought up some interesting topics….and we should think of making a thread on it. All souls Went to Hell, Before Jesus arrived on Earth…..@Taken No, all souls went to Shoal before Christ arrived on Earth. Enoch, Elijah, Moses, Mary or any other Earthly man of Dust...

    Apparitions of the Virgin Mary

    I am not saying she does not appear to "outsiders" just the rule. There are times she appears to hundreds and there are mixed religions. The war torn areas is good example.

    Apparitions of the Virgin Mary

    I have said before that the concept of original sin is a lie. You really need to look at the writings of Augustine, he was a nut case. You say....There is no Biblical evidence that Mary was born different to anyone else. That is true there is very little about Mary in the Bible and anyone that...

    Apparitions of the Virgin Mary

    Again I am going to say their belief system saves. The issue is when they climb the fence and start commenting on things that by their own belief system, they are not suppose to believe in. Effectively they could say that anything that happens after the biblical era and then Martin Luther was...

    Apparitions of the Virgin Mary

    That is the point of post 46. The Bible is not going to talk about her divinity....it does not record her death either. Staying inside the scriptures, there is really not much to discuss about Mary. There are thousands of divine events that happened after the biblical era. But that is not...

    Apparitions of the Virgin Mary

    I am surprised that Protestants key on this, Augustine, was the author of the doctrine of original sin. He was a Catholic theologian, philosopher, and the bishop of Hippo Regius in Numidia, Roman North Africa. The man was near to insane. Babies are not born with sin.

    Apparitions of the Virgin Mary

    Ya, don't believe in original sin...it is a lie.

    Apparitions of the Virgin Mary

    The Bible has a description of how Christ will return. That could be a problem. Around 700 BC the prophets were taking about a human messiah...a human warlord king messiah. 700 years later they got a peace loving God messiah, it was so different that they did not accept him and instigated His...

    Apparitions of the Virgin Mary

    Read post 46 I have already covered all this. I do not have a problem with you or your beliefs. So I don't dismiss you. I call it Fundamentalism, is it a loose term at best. You think I do not pay attention to you. Then again if I have missed something, tell something you believe that is not...
