If the White House believes that, why doesn't the president pardon the crime, rather than let the stain of this Biden lawfare stand?

Buit why compare- rather than applaud it wherever it's happening? And my denomination happens to have such a system anyway. It's called Catholic Relief and it's one of the hugest and most efficient relief agencies out there.

As I said before: The Body of Christ does not have the spiritual or material power or authority to make a social justice plan applicable to the world.
Catholic Relief does what it can, but it does not have the spiritual or material power or authority to make a social justice plan applicable to the world.

The whole world is not clothed, housed, and fed.

That is not our mission. It wasn't even Jesus' mission.

Yes it can be reconciled. I believe the internal date of Didascalia, and that it is inspired.
It is so funny you are blinded to your own biases.

Romans 1:22-32​

​

King James Version​

​

22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,

Also what books of the protestant canon do you believe are pseudepigrapha? I believe the internal date of all. This is just to let readers know you likely do not even believe internal dates in the protestant canon. Lets see if you are honest enough to answer. More specifically do you believe the torah is pseudepigrapha? Therefore when Jesus quotes it, and says Moses says, you think Jesus is wrong correct? Also I notice you dodged the question about gospel of Nic.​

​

It won't let me copy paste from chatGPT for some reason. Just tell it to reconcile the internal timeline of Diascalia with the NT, and assume the Diascalia is historical, and not pseudepigrapha, and it will. Tell it to reconcile the Peter rooster event too.

Also, this: "and assume the Diascalia is historical, and not pseudepigrapha" This is why it gave you the answers you wanted.

From ChatGPT:

1. “ChatGPT Supported My View” Usually Means Leading the Question

I don’t have beliefs to defend or theological instincts to privilege. What I do is respond to the shape of the question.

If someone asks:

• “How can the Didascalia be understood as preserving an authentic apostolic tradition?”

Then yes—I will:

• Lay out possible arguments
• Describe minority positions
• Explore harmonizations
• Use charitable language

That is not endorsement. It’s exposition.

But if someone asks:

• “Is the Didascalia Apostolorum written by the apostles?”

The answer—based on evidence—is no, and consistently so.

What often happens in debates like this is that one party conflates:

“ChatGPT can articulate a defense”
with
“ChatGPT agrees this defense is correct.”

Those are not the same thing.

Where I believe those 15 time periods fit into the final 7 years of this Christian era;

Revelation 11:2 & 13:5 - The 42 months from when the AC sits in the Temple, to the Return of Jesus.
Rev 12:14, the same period, the time the faithful peoples will be kept safe far away.
Daniel 7:25 & 12:7; again - the same period, the world under Satanic control for three and a half years.

Daniel 8:14, the 2300 evenings and mornings; actually 1150 days; is past history. It refers to when King Antiochus 4 conquered Judah and placed a pig on the altar, until it was cleansed in 164BC.

Daniel 9:27, After the supernatural destruction of a huge army attacking the people in the Holy Land, led by Gog from Magog, the leader of the rest of the world will make a 7 year peace treaty with the leaders in Jerusalem. He will break it at the halfway and conquer the Holy peoples.

Ezekiel 39:9 & 12, There is no way we can pinpoint this time of the cleansing of the Holy Land. It must start before that 7 year treaty. Probably overlap some.

Revelation 11:3 & 12:6, the final period of 1260 days before Jesus Returns, Same time as the 42 months and the three and a half years.

Revelation 11:11, refers to actual days, Those 2 Witnesses will be raised by Jesus when He Returns, along with all the martyrs killed during the 3 1/2 year time of world Satanic control.

Daniel 12:11 The extra 30 days after Jesus Returns, is for the Atonement of the people and the removal of the abomination.

Revelation 9:10, fits somewhere in the final 3 1/2 years. 5 months of torment by stinging critters, part of the Great Tribulation.

Your question fields at least this theological concern. If a human lived on another planet would Satan have any influence there?
Revelation 12:9 (ESV)
9 And the great dragon was thrown down, that ancient serpent, who is called the devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world—he was thrown down to the earth, and his angels were thrown down with him.

Deceiver of the whole earth, or world? If world does not include other planets, a man not born again would still have a sin nature, but if living in another planet, perhaps there is no demonic involvement at all? It would be an interesting experiment to see if even the space station has demonic involvement.

It seems like man will press the boundaries of earth plus cultivate potential resources from other planets so I think when the tech is there will be visits and maybe occupation of other planets. Of course God could thwart any successful attempts in all kinds of ways.

I think you are missing the point. You used Protzens opinion that the stones may have been polished. You are using my link, the same link you say is not good enough and that I need peer reviewed evidence for.

If my link is good enough for you to use to point out something wrong. Therefore I should be able to use my links to do the same and this should be accepted with the some logic as how you just used my own link to refute me.

Yet if I did the same as I have been doing I am demanded to provide further evidence such as peer review.

All I was looking at was Protzen was one of the experts referred to in my article who was credible as far as experts looking at ancient works. It doesn't matter what his particular findings were. Its that you use one of my own references as evidence. While at the same time dismissing my references as unreliable and lacking credibility.

stevevw said:

You are missing the point. I don't care about what is said and by whom. My point was that you suddenly found credibility in my own links by referencing Protzen. Yet when I reference anyone peer review is demanded. Its a double standard.

If you want to use someone within my references to defeat my point just by referring to them and not going through all the hoops of peer review or whatever it is demanded.

Then by the same logic when I cite others you should accept them without all the hoop jumping. But thats not what is happening. See how the rules are bent for one and not the others. Otherwise it does not matter what Protzen said or what it was about. If we apply the same hoop jumping then any point you are trying to make about Protzen perhaps saying the works may have been poliched is discredited under the same logic.

It does not matter. You are referring to him. If he did say the works were polished. Then you would use that as evidence that perhaps it was not vitrified. Is that correct.

Then you are using my reference and using evidence in the exact same way as I have been doing. So its double standards to then demand peer review as you never applied that to yourself. You were quite happy to use the possibility of Protzens contradiction to refute that the stones were vitrified.

Click to expand...

What? I don't think Protzens writings about the supposed vitrified surfaces are the definitive answer. He performed very little tests, if any to evidence that. I am wondering why you reference him, when it seemingly goes against the position you try to argue.

Thanks for pointing that out. I edited to the message to reflect that. God bless!

I really didn't know if David would be just alright, decent, good, etc. I ended up loving it. It's the best theatrical release this year. Best Christian animated movie since Prince of Egypt. One of the best Christian movies ever made. Stunning animation, great music, sincere, and heartfelt. David is handled so well and I liked how it did more with his family.

I was never taught that December 25 was the birth date of Jesus. I don't see the problem with celebrating his birth just because it's not in the bible.

I don't understand the lecture but I really don't care about it all that much, either.

Celebrate it or don't?

Interesting.

I forget where I read it, but I did read an article somewhere about how most of Israel is not even religious. The younger generations refused to follow the orthodox ways, saying it was just too much.

Maybe there are some similarities here.

It’s going to take a lot more than one divisive speech to convince a majority of Americans the country is on the right path.

Sacred tradition and Sacred Scripture form one sacred deposit of the word of God. One cannot remove either and remain faithful to the teaching of the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ.

So says everyone who promotes a bible + tradition doctrine. History has shown that tradition has fallen short. If you're unwilling to defend a doctrine without extra-biblical support, I must view this as a doctrine that cannot be supported biblically.
