    How Old Is The Earth

    As horrific as it was, it's exactly what Gods people expected. The world hates Christians, Jesus promised us that we would be hated by the whole world and that they would persecute and kill us. If we look at the whole of history, we see Gods people and His prophets have always been hated and...

    How Old Is The Earth

    Bible scholars have compiled a list of generations going all the way back to Adam. So we do have a reliable estimate, of the age of the earth and the best estimate is somewhere between 6-7000 years old.

    How Old Is The Earth

    I don't think Jeremiah 13:23 is referring to certain traits or characteristics. I believe it's describing the whole person and not just aspects of their character. The reason a sinner sins is because he is a sinner by nature. He's not just a sinner now and then, God describes the natural man...

    How Old Is The Earth

    I should have qualified my statement by adding that indulgences are still sold but they are not called indulgences. I came from a Roman Catholic family, my brother committed suicide, and my family have been paying for mass to be dedicated to my late brother, to get him out of purgatory. The...

    If I was to go along with your suggestion, it would mean that God contradicts Himself. Deut 30:19 does not suggest that man has a free will. All it does is separate the sheep from the goats, a sheep's nature is to obey the shepherds voice but a goats nature is to disobey. You can only do what...

    To suggest that God can choose not to know something, takes away Gods omniscience and brings Him down to the level of a creature. I hope you got away from that pastor.

    How Old Is The Earth

    Are you sure the Holy spirit is teaching you and not some other Spirit. Jesus said His Holy Spirit would teach you all the things He taught. One of the things He taught was that everyone is born with a fallen sin nature (original sin), so if the Spirit doesn't teach what Christ taught then it's...

    How Old Is The Earth

    I'm not interested in the opinions of Joseph Smith or John Calvin. God's Word states, "let God be true and every man a liar", so if anyone preaches a different gospel, let him be an anathema. I'm not sure who taught you theology but they obviously failed to teach you the doctrines of original...

    How Old Is The Earth

    Bingo, David is a perfect example of a believer being overcome by temptation. We know that he was a murderer and adulterer, and it took David over a year to finally repent of his murder and adultery. I believe that God gave him the gift of repentance, because most murderers and adulterers never...

    How Old Is The Earth

    There was only One (non denominational) Christian Church, when Jesus gave His Apostles the "great commission" in Matthew 28:19-20 The commission was to simply go into all the world and proclaim the gospel to everyone. All of the Apostles understood the gospel message, because their lives were...

    How Old Is The Earth

    You're on the right track here and I almost agree with everything you pointed out above. I would like to add that Paul knew that the law was not sufficient to save us, because God looks at the heart. So, even our best works are as filthy rags in Gods sight, because He can see we do those works...

    Those 7 Churches were mentioned 2000 years ago, may I remind you that we are in 2024 now and we actually have 47,300 Christian Denominations. I know it makes your denomination seem small and insignificant and irrelevant in our modern age, but that's the cold harsh reality of it. 47,000 And...

    How Old Is The Earth

    I know you're just quoting the Bible, but you know there are 45,000 Christian denominations, each with their unique way of interpreting the scriptures. I don't believe that I can interpret the scriptures in anyway I want, if i did that then I would be counted among the 45,000 hypocritical...

    How Old Is The Earth

    Thank you for confirming that the man Jesus never existed until He was conceived in Mary's womb. I never mentioned Jehovah Jesus, we were discussing Jesus the man. Nobody is disputing that the man Jesus was fully God and fully man at the same time, but Jesus the man did not come into existence...

    How Old Is The Earth

    Sorry but you're dead wrong as usual, a "theory" is not a fact. A theory is a theory and a fact is a fact, I hope you have the capacity to process this simple fact, but I won't get my hopes up too high as you haven't given me any reason thus far. So as usual you have turned this truth up side...
