@ Marcus: Perhaps I misunderstood your post. The OP doesn't argue that the Jews won't rebuild the temple, but that such a temple wouldn't be "the temple of God" as referred to in 2 Thess. Also, I would have to take issue with the idea that the law still stands. @ StanJ: I want to make sure I...

@ Marcus: While Jesus did not destroy the law, he fulfilled it. "Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil." (Matthew 5:17) Remember that Jesus himself claimed to be the temple (John 2:19-21) and we are later called the Body of...

It seems to me that you are being a bit cynical on this point. I am a creationist, a young earth creationist at that matter (though I am not dogmatic on this point), and I would never do such a thing deliberately. On the other hand, I am always making mistakes. You will have to do a little...

Food for thought: "Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ." (Galatians 3:16) What does this say of the land promise to Abraham?

Just a quick note on Matthew 24:29. The word translated as "tribulation" in the KJV is "thlipsis" and literally means pressure. This is the same word used in Matthew 24:21 when Jesus describes the "great tribulation": "For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning...

I do not know if I want to enter this debate or not, but I would like to point something out. There are two very different views that are often lumped together as "replacement theology". There is true replacement theology which views a dramatic break between the old and new covenant and...

Even if God leads us into all truth, it doesn't mean we always follow.

I though this was what you were referring to but your comment on comparing genomes through me for a loop so I needed to be sure. I do not know if I can give a very good definition for information. I can't even find a very good dictionary definition of it. The best I can say is that it is what...

I am afraid I do not quite understand the purpose of your challenge. Why do we need to determine which genome has more information? I will need you to expand on this thought. When you say "no one" do you mean no one here or no one in general. Also, to you, what does the term "by chance" mean...

I can certainly see how you could come to this conclusion I must disagree for a couple of reasons. 1 Corinthians 7:10-15: (10) And unto the married I command, yet not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife depart from her husband: (11) But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be...

I fail to see how these statements qualify as "pseudoscientific nonsense" as all that is being done is pointing out the shortcomings of true pseudo-science to explain things that are at the core of a naturalistic explanation for the development and diversification of life on earth. Along with...

Do you know her spiritual condition?

I wonder where I fit into this article. I have no problems with science (in fact I enjoy learning about it) but I also take the Bible literally(or as I like to put it, literarily [after all, poetry and parable cannot be taken literally]). Science and the Bible do not oppose each other...

This is my understanding of this issue: Divorce is allowable in two situations; adultery (Matthew 19:9) and when one in the marriage is not a Christian and they desire a divorce (I Cor. 7:15). In both of these cases, remarriage is an option as, in Matthew 19:9, remarriage after divorce for...

Howdy, I just thought I'd introduce myself. I am the song leader at a small, county church that enjoys good fellowship and frank discourse. From what I've seen so far, this looks like the place for me. God bless.
