An actual socio/psycho path is extremely ray however... and usually all but the most intelligent end up in prison. While I don't believe that all psychological illness is purely biological (any educated psychologist will advocate the bio-psycho-social model), very rarely are such sociopaths...

Just out of curiosity... by what claim do you call Catholicism "Bastardized"? I do believe that Hitler hated Catholics too? And you can't claim that true and orthodox Catholicism is any more anti-semitic than other Christian religions...

Interesting post. Not sure I agree with all of it but very interesting nonetheless. Is it meant to be just a reflection to share, or what?

This reminds me of a scene from a movie called "fireproof". If you haven't seen it you should check it out...

Do you say that because you think God decides whether or not we believe, or because in an ultimate sense you cannot will against God (although in a limited sense we can)?

I'm very sorry to hear about your wife. I have not really had to endure any major suffering, so of course I can never truly know what suffering does to someone's spirit.I do know however that I have suffered at some level. And I know that those times in which I am suffering, I run to Jesus even...

Thank you very much adstar, I had a feeling you were more of a post-trib kind of guy. ;) Thank you also for clarifying. I think you and I will get along well.Peace to allRemember Eph 4:1-6

I'm pretty sure what you're describing is the traditionally accepted view of what the "rapture" is... although i'm not an expert by any means, so correct me if i'm wrong. Lt. "Raptuse" literally means "to be caught up"... which was explained in an earlier post in this thread I believe. Pretty...

First of all Let us PLEASE remember Eph 4:1-6 .2nd) I personally do not believe in the Pre-trib rapture. But I do know that one way or another God will deliver me. If he sees fit to let me struggle first then obviously I deserve it. If he does indeed deliver me before it happens then praise...

Well said. Unfortunately that's the hard part for us as human's even though it is our purpose in life. I spent last summer traveling with a team of people talking about virtue. Obviously, with love being the highest virtue, we talked about what love is a lot, both as a team and with the...

Good to have you here!

I'm gonna say no... but can't think on any biblical basis for it at this point in time.

True... but the term "rapture" itself is incorrect. Rather the terms "parousia" or even "2nd coming" should be used (in my opinion).

Thank you for this thread! This is something that people become more aware of. "Rapture" comes from the Latin "Rapio" which literally means to be"caught up". I believe most people get it from the passage in Matthew where it says one person will be taken up and one will be left behind. In...

Please forgive me... but it seems that the Gospel you preach is one of exclusion and hate...

I'm sorry if i've caused you confusion... I'm merely a relatively uneducated student of the Word who happens to know the greek better than the Hebrew. Forgive me if i'm hard to follow or I "make up" "Words", and please try to have patience with my ignorance.The spelling is correct. However...

Is there really a point to this arguing? Sometimes peace can be better served if we just ignore each other...

A matter of semantics...perhaps...
