Their response to these verses are case studies in sophistry, if not willful ignorance. I do pity them.

Please forgive me, brother.

Looks great. I'll have to learn how to maneuver quotes around. Thanks for all your hard work! Much appreciated. :Thumbsup:

I had a multi-email exchange wit my Pastor about the 10C and how they apply to New Covenant Chrsitians. I put it this way to him. You cannot believe that Jesus died on a cross so we can violate with impunity the 10C, specifically, and God's will, generally. You cannot believe God's will is that...

I've noticed the co-opting of terms also. When it is convenient, they say they believe in one God. At other times, it is convenient to suppose a number other than one applies to the Creator.

A specific question would help with my fully packed but concise statement. @Matthias, I too would like a clarification of your beliefs. Maybe I asked you this before. Do you consider yourself to be a Messianic Jew? If not, what is your understanding of who Jesus is?

Me too. It's odd cause you seem to be defending trinitarainism but I could be wrong.

Great point! I often say the gates of Heaven will not be breached by lip service. Anyone can claim anything. The action is the thing. And the first righteous thing is faith. I believe the divine standard is deliberately set beyond human capacity. I believe this is because he does not want us...

If this is true, 2 things: Jesus died in vain for death (total, not partial) is the penalty for sin. Jesus is not the firstfruits of the resurrection. 1 Cor 25:23

LOL. You are putting words in John’s mouth. Saying John understood that Jesus is God is at odds with him writing the most anti-trinitarian book of the entire Bible.

So, what you are calling a democracy is actually a republic. A democracy is tyranny by numbers. Therefore, what the Buddha said remains valid, the beginning of wisdom is to call things by their proper name. You are in a dark place. Your mind, twisted by the penetrating depth of the evil of this...

We’re you? Sad that you have to pretend that Jesus was ever known as YHWH.

Rule by majority. Not rule by majority. See the difference? Examples of anti-trinitarian ruling mechanisms: Veto Electoral Collage Jury requiring unanimous vote 3/4 for Amendment 1/5 to record votes on a bill (non-verbal ascension.) 18: Age Voting duty applies 25: Age for Representative 30...

I already have. To simplify further, it comes down to RULING MECHANISM. Monarchy - Rule By Fiat or Proclamation by the Sovereign of Absolute power. Democracy - Rule by Majority. Republic - - Rule By Law. The Founding Father’s wrote about the detestable drawbacks to a democracy. They...

BINGO! Me too. The highest question is WHY. Without it, history is mindless.

Wrong. Words are literally WHAT’s not WHO’s.

Most people hate history in general. Oswald Spengler said that nothing is more quintessentially philosophy than history. To have a fully developed word view that integrates all known facts takes a lot of work. For most people, ‘in the beginning’ starts in their lifetime. Anything earlier than...

I recall others but not their screen name. (I try to block it from my memory. :-)

Yea. Check out some of ScottA’s posts.

Sure there is! And I’ve demonstrated an example numerous times.
