No. I'm only suggesting we accept the political reality; our Christian society is giving way to conditions ripe for tribulation.

Exactly. Constitutional restrictions on power have been abandoned since the Lincoln administration.

You are wrong to equate the common man with being ignorant and unstable. Humans are not all knowing and therefore, inherently ignorant to a certain degree.

Your lack of humility is what is shocking. Not once did our Lord insult his opponents as you have in this thread.

I remember watching a perverted video of a sodomite stating there are only 3 unique verses against sodomy (other verses reference these unique 3). The sodomite was portrayed as thoughtfully questioning the moral opposition and made an Appeal to Numbers. There are fewer verses than one would...

Didn't the federal court rule on this?

So, does that mean Jesus was in the ground for 3,000 years before being resurrected?

I agree. justbyfaith is an enthusiast but is unbelievably theologically lost. I will pray for him.

Those who embrace OSAS don't define it. I was using the illogical ex post facto terminology of those I doctrinally differ. I don't know what your testimony is but I think there is a difference between accepting Jesus as your Savior and the ongoing need to repent, ask for strength, pray, etc...

Ad Homenim. Words have meaning, objective meaning. One does not have to have some kind of malady to know that. The double standard is to suppose if the sentence does not contain 'full' it is not a full day but although the sentence does not contain the word 'partial' we ought to take it as...

I explained it this way to a Pastor. It is hard to claim the devil is lying when telling the literal truth but God is figuratively telling the truth while literally lying. He didn't deny it. If you think lying is wrong consider the law of love (John 13:34-35) as it pertains to lying to the...

Seems easier enough to reconcile. Naturally, it is God that saves. He throws us the life preserver. It is up to us to take it.

Wow! Shocking lack of humility.

Searching the New Testament for three partial days and three partial nights is akin to a blind man in a dark room looking for a black cat that isn't there ... I have 4 pets. None of them are partial. It seems to me that there is a default meaning of words, that if you want to deviate from that...

Just like how long Jesus was in the ground, there are multiple meanings for day: Day light Calendar Day 24 hour period of time. In our world today, this is confusing when travel itineraries are put together. Often, there is one more day than night in the itinerary, e.g., 7 day, 6 night...

Did you admit the original language lacks grammar? The original language is not spoken here. It makes no sense for you to keep harping on it. In my forced Spanish class, I learned they put the adjective after the noun. House big whereas we say big house. What you call errors and inconsistencies...

These are horrible translations, not even proper English. You say ‘during’ but the verses don’t even have that.

Great point! And again, I go back to English translators. One pastor put it this way. It is one thing to know OF a world famous person. It is another thing to have a deep, personal relationship with that person. Intellectual v experiential knowledge. That that hard to grasp. Our God is not...

Is that a yes, the Good News message was meant for the common man and not scholars, etc? I think you are confusing the 'common man' with 'the ignorant and unstable.' Love God. Love others. Not too hard to grasp even for intellectuals who, like Pharisee's, sift their mustard seed but miss the...

Didn’t Jesus thank God that his message was meant for the common man and not the scholars, etc?
