    EOC and the Fall

    Even though it's too late to help you out, while the fall is certainly a bad thing, I believe that God's love and grace shine through in the punishment. Imagine being stuck here on this sin cursed world for all eternity, living with people like Hitler for all eternity and most of importantly of...

    Paul VS Jesus

    It seems, Anti Existance, that you have not read all the Scriptures. Jesus reveals to John (his most beloved follower) in Revelation that those who are sexually immoral (e.g. homosexuality) will not receive eternal life. They will be outside the Kingom of God. Paul's message is directly from...

    My Beliefs..agree/disagree?

    Christian 1stBaptist2nd: I like your name, it's cool and so true! :) Agree! Woohoo, that's two we agree on! Once again, we're on a roll. I agree with this. Christ is the head of the Christian church (i.e. the Body of Christ), even though different denominations may have their leaders...

    Converting other christians

    Gods Revenger LOL! I thought the thread had something to do with non-Christians being converted. He, he, he. I'm going crazy... I think it's pointless. If you're saved, you know Jesus and have a relationship with Him, then good on you. Continue doing what you're doing. It isn't going to...

    Creation: Six Days or not?

    Hey Quijote! God said it and according to 2 Timothy 3:16 it is true so I believe it! Even if I didn't have a lot of proof for what I believe, I trust Almighty God who was there and who doesn't lie and who does know everything over sinful limited and fallible men who were not there and who...

    What will be the basis of Jesus's judgement.

    Hi Autumnleaf! Here is my understanding of the whole Judgment thing. You will be essentially asked two things by God: 1. "What have you done with my Son?" The answer to this question will decide where you spend eternity. 2. "What have you done with the things I gave you?" The answer to this...

    Was Mary Sinless? (Words Of Augustine, Clement Of Alexandria, Pope Innocent The Third

    How can Mary be sinless when Paul tells us that all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God (Romans 3:23). Mary is included in this "all". If you're a human then you have sinned "in Adam" or in the likeness of Adam. Edit: I should say that if [you and] your father are human then you're a...

    So these are the people you uphold?

    I wasn't referring to science. I said that I bet that Hinduism is taught in Indian schools in some degree.

    Christian suicide --> hell?

    Are people who kill themselves in their right mind? I would argue that most of them are not and thus, I believe that God will show them mercy. Assuming they are though, isn't it kind of saying to God that the situation is that overwhelming that not even He could help out? That is, the person is...

    Answer this because I am stuck

    We are still sin-cursed fallen human beings, and until we reach glory and are glorified (i.e. purged of the presence of sin) we will still fail from time to time. When we become Christians, sin looses its power over us as the Holy Spirit starts working sanctification in our lives. It isn't until...

    John 5:7

    saladin1970, Others have already dealt quite impressively with this point. Why was the extended part of 1 John 5:7 removed? Because it wasn't in the Bible to begin with! The fact, that the extended part of 1 John 5:7 does not appear in the earliest and most reliable (best) manuscripts has...

    I've got a question, what is the prophecy (referred to in Episode I, II, and III) about and who is it a reference to? :D

    Why Should I forgive him?

    Hey NoName12, I'm really sorry about your dad and what he did to your family. I can see why you hate him. I guess, to be totally honest with you, I would too. You asked, "Why should I forgive him"? You're right, he doesn't deserve you to forgive him. But then again, we don't deserve Christ to...

    Dinosours

    Hey follower1, According to the Bible, dinosuars such as the T.rex, like all other land animals and man were made on day six of the creation week about six thousand years ago. We get the approximate date of creation by adding up the years in the genealogies that are found in the Bible, such as...

    the death penalty

    Dear themodfather, I agree with your view. I am totally against the death penalty in all circumstances, no matter what the convicted has allegedly done. Yes, the concept of "an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth" is from the Old Testament (see Exodus 21:24, Lev. 24:20 and Deut. 19:21, for...
