Laureate! So good to see you again! :clap:I've thought about you a lot recently. I am not too worried about this bill passing, it seems to be only supported by those two who proposed it. They've had other laws against proselytization before but that won't stop those who the LORD supports to...

They were collecting the temple tax. He probably didn't want to antagonize them since the time of his execution was neigh at hand. It had to be done at the right time. "But so that we may not offend them," The word used here is 'skandalizó' to cause to sin, a stumbling block.

First think about his audience. He was eating with Pharisees along with his disciples. If he were indeed talking about them eating unclean animals there would have been an uproar from both sides. Remember there are many places in the gospels that tell of the Pharisees looking for a way to...

And here I thought you wanted to have a serious discussion about the prayers and incense, silly me. Yes, she was righteousness as well. I have no idea where you got that from, care to share? So I gave you a place which comes way after the resurrection showing in heaven the prayers and the...

Yes, it was because as he says here HE doesn't violate His covenant nor alter the words directly from his lips, Just as he spoke before over a million people in the wilderness His commandments.

An hour and a half by car. I'm sure he was called to Jerusalem for the High Holy Days and feasts as the city would be overflowing and problems could occur. According to historical data he was part of an Auxilary corp stationed there at the Procurators residence. Pontius Pilate lived there in...

Can you please give me a Book, chapter and verse as I've never read that before.

Misquoted. A misquote from the Psalms of David, speaking of fools, ATHEISTS --Here's the whole thing To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David. 14 The fool has said in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt, They have done abominable works, There is none who does good. 2 The Lord...

"My covenant I will not break, Nor alter the word that has gone out of My lips."

5 There was in the days of Herod, the king of Judea, a certain priest named Zacharias, of the division of Abijah. His wife was of the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elizabeth. 6 And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless...

Then answer this: 1. How did Cornelius find out about the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob? 2. If he was praying and giving alms then it most likely had to be at the temple. There was a large area the Gentiles could go to for these things. 3. He learned what was righteous before God by going to...

I'll answer this for now and come back to your other objections later, dinner time soon. Have you ever thought that if the Holy Spirit tells you not to murder and you don't murder that there is still another reason for it to be valid and still for today? What of others that don't believe...

It was not an argument, it was a statement and a question, but you get the gist. Let's go back to the beginning, When there were only two people on earth, living in bliss in a place where they had everything they needed, where the sun shone upon them in a perfect climate, where they could eat...

Trying to understand you here again. You were addressing this: ***"Behold I, Paul, say to you that if you receive circumcision, Christ will be of no benefit to you." You said 'he is differentiating between things he is saying that Jesus did not say on His life versus things He did say.'...

No, I don't that is not saying that don't believe it should be in the bible canon. However when you contrast it to the other writers of the Bible it is clear that Paul puts a lot of himself in his letters. For example, here he is explicit that it is him saying this, not God, not Messiah, his...

Who would want men to NOT keep God's Laws? Think about it. Go back to the Beginning.

Why would he? It was a commemoration of the day he finished creation. That is still very important to recognize and point to him, why can't you see that? I have no idea what that even means. You need to explain that and how it has anything to do with what I said there. Yes, it is...

And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: 5 For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.

After you reword that because I can't make heads or tails from that word salad. You just can't answer the question so you give another question, but that in itself answers it for me. Where does it say he was 'Lord of the Flood'? That's a new one, do tell.

Why would he? It was a commemoration of the day he finished creation. That is still very important to recognize and point to him, why can't you see that? Even among the heathens it is well known that once they (the Kings) made a decree they could not go back on it. Read the book of Ester...
