Does Jesus have to say it? Yesterday, I did not say 'war is bad' but I still think it is so, agreeing with those who said it in the past.

What are the 2 love commands? And why are you not referring to all the commands Jesus gave? 49 Commands of Christ

Lord Acton's axiom proves true - even for religious folk. Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts, absolutely.

Is English your first language? A reasonable conclusion from this is that John IS the son of Mary. I guess not. John is not the son of Mary. Yet, Jesus tells Mary to look at your son, John. That's weird. Something is both a thing (son) and not a thing (not a son). To your way of thinking...

In another thread talking about second death and going through the lake of fire, I began to wonder about it's purpose. Without quoting a lot of Scripture, it is my understanding that hell is not the final location of the damned. Rather, hell is but a waiting room for the damned that on Judgment...

The human coin? You got to be kidding in your lack of discernment, willfully refusing to acknowledge the divisions the Adversary is creating among us. This thread is not about liars, murderers, and adulterers. If you want to discuss that, feel free to start another thread. Liars, murderers...

Would a date be helpful to you? I say the corruption was shortly after the transformation from being persecuted to becoming the State religion, when they killed unitarians, took their property and exiled them in the 4th century. So, why did the corruption take centuries before the Reformation...

How can your reason it out with your finite mind? John is the son of Mary and Jesus fathered himself, which is why he is called the son ... just because your come up with nonsense does not mean it is true.

Those who never turn to God are prejudged.

Too many today are overly literal. The Left don't hesitate to target their enemies, accepting massive collateral damage. Given that the fact that more Christians vote for the R's than the D's, the D's would be OK with destroying the. Same with White people, men, heterosexuals, patriot's etc.

Strive to become the person the kind of people you want to be friends with want to be friends with. I'll keep you in my prayers.

Wow! I think the very first step to salvation is Matthew 7:21, which reinforces what is said in the OT dozens, if not 100's of times. Submit to and obey the will of God, his command's etc. Too many confuse OSAS with the idea that salvation is OPEN to all while still having a price. In fact, I...

The verse in Matthew directly binds the notion that Jesus will be saved - even by those that receive him.

I know man-hating is all the rave today but a man is a human. Do you deny Scripture calls Jesus a man repeatedly? Do you deny Jesus called himself a man, a prophet, the son of man?

But MUST be bounded by other Scripture, such as Matthew 7:21. The Bible is a remarkably figurative book. “If you tear down this temple, I’ll build it back in 3 days” is just one of many metaphorical verses. Make a blessed day!

I ask you about IDEAS. All you can do is Appeal to Hominem. You’ve abandoned the discussion. I’ve lined up all of Scripture nicely. Thank you. Make a blessed day.

Human nature. Pride. Ego. My doctrine is right. Anyone who doesn't share that is wrong. That about sums it up, doesn't it? I don't agree with the claim that Jesus died for the whole world on 2 grounds: universalism is not supported biblically the Bible is highly metaphorical much of the time...

Your language skills are atrocious. Singular v Plural: disciple v disciples. John is THE beloved disciple, singular. Indefinite v Definite Article, a v THE. John is not one (among many) disciples who are a beloved of Jesus. John is THE beloved disciple. Singular Possessive v Plural Possessive...

Isn't debating that statement what this whole thread is about? If a thread was titled, "Oil is lighter than water" and someone wrote that it isn't, the statement adds nothing - void of detailing the method - at arriving at that conclusion, right?

Philip, brother, you and your family will be in my prayers.
