For many years I was a part of the UPC. They believed that. While I must respectfully disagree, I won't say more on this point. Of course it is not my job to prove my situation to you. I have said what I have said. For you or for me, only God gives the increase and often He does use people...

Say that guy in the picture looks alot like my older brother at that age. Could it be? Nahhh. He was born too long ago.

Actually we do in our own bodies, but someone who was likely pretty much unfeeling at the time decided a numerical measurement was needed.

Some people really remember the Resurrection every day rather than just once a year. Easter was one mass my parents at least considered attending when I was growing up. The other one was Christmas. Do you suppose that people who only attend a service commemorating the birth or the resurrection...

All I did was quote a scripture with precisely zero commentary. Talk about making a mountain out of a molehill. Smile! :):D You don't want to discuss anyway. All you want to do is expound and much of what you put forth is not even yours.

The 60 F is on the cool side especially if the wind is blowing [stiff breeze now] and/or it is also wet [it is not], but indeed no complaint from me for as late as last night they were predicting a high of about 84 [on the warm side]. Actually it barely made it above 60. Have to wonder about...

If I remember correctly 5/9 of one degree on the Fahrenheit scale is equal to one degree in Celsius (Centigrade). For Celsius water freezes at zero degrees and boils at 100 degrees. For Fahrenheit water freezes at 32 degrees and boils at 212 degrees. To convert you need to add or subract 32 as...

@Rev20 I am not going into the detail of your response to me on post #119. Thank you for your consideration. We seem to be miles apart. Hopefully both of us will continue to progress toward God and thus closer to each other. Give God the glory!

Also praying for those involved in or affected by this tragedy.

Sorry about the fonts, I try to make them different from the other person's to make it is easier for my old eyes of flesh to distinguish between my writings and the other guy's. Naturally on longer more complex posts I am more likely to make mistakes. Again, sorry about that. I will try to do...

I have been reading my Bibles daily in three languages for going on 40 years. I now read the entirety of each of the three Bibles in a little less than 2 years. This is a seven day a week work for me. I am not bragging. That is simply what I do. That does not count the Bible study times spent...

Except that your point of view makes it more difficult to understand the following words: "Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be." James 3:10 It ought not to be, but it very often is: "Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to...

@Rev20 Philosophy it is not. Jesus or anyone who speaks for God as led by the Holy Spirit with spoken words is speaking words that are Alive. When you or I quote what is written in the Bible AND we are filled with the Holy Spirit and being led by the Holy Spirit, the words we speak are...

@Rev20 He was speaking of the law God gave to Moses, but he was also letting us know that there was a new and better way than following the black and white letters of any book. The Jews had a written book given to them by God which is part of our Bible today, but they could not accomplish the...

@Rev20 The oracles were as you say given already as per Apostle Paul to the Jews. This was a necessary and important thing because the Holy Spirit was not yet poured out and available to whosoever will, be they Jew or Gentile in the flesh. a Book was needed because the priests, the natural...

Of course I was as many have been [and still are]. For me that was long ago. Jesus was indeed dead for 3 days, but that is no new thing. It has simply been hidden from people by others who have often been blind themselves. We, all of us, are the ones to whom Jesus preached. We are the ones...

Thanks for the invitation, but I looked and it is too long for me. I asked a few questions and you give me your whole theology. There are too many whole theologies for me to read them all in the remainder of my natural life. I spend my time reading and studying scripture and some time discussing...

If God believes your heart is right on it? But in any case remember what Jesus said about idle words and be careful for yourself.

Some few teachers in public schools really do believe in God. There is not a lot they can do, but when they can they do give something good [from God] to hungry hearts that they meet in the classrooms. Would you remove even that by man's law?

@theQuestion His body died on the cross. He was resurrected by the Spirit of God. The spirits in prison to which he preached were the men and women on planet earth who had only the death [the prison of sin]. Jesus came to bring Life to the those dead. "The thief cometh not, but for to...
