    The legitimacy of the sacrifice of Jesus.

    Fair enough Ivy. It is just that so often all I hear are NT quotes. Actually it is not just so often, it is by far the majority of the time. And where I am at right now is trying to find that fluid transition. So certainly NT scripture that doesn't go against OT would and should be...

    The legitimacy of the sacrifice of Jesus.

    A while ago you said you were going to step out of this discussion because you didn't like the way it was going. I said good buy at that time and stopped responding to your posts because they end up being nonsense. I am replying to many people here and I reply to directly what they say. Those...

    The legitimacy of the sacrifice of Jesus.

    Harry, Thank you for sharing this passage. I am going to set some time aside and read it through. Thank you again :)

    So why do you think someone would leave Christianity?

    Yeah, I just saw that, I'll be leaving now.

    The legitimacy of the sacrifice of Jesus.

    Aloha JJ, Thank you for your kind suggestion. I have actually read Hebrews (it's been a few months). It can seem so logical unless you take into account that it is changing everything God says in the OT. "It was that way....but now it's this way" "The old way is obsolete and here's the...

    The legitimacy of the sacrifice of Jesus.

    Harry, thank you again for you time. All you had to say was very moving and lovely. There are definitely things Paul says that are really great and I still carry them with me. However, taking his writings as a whole, he is a conflicted man. I won't go into it, because it seems pointless...

    The legitimacy of the sacrifice of Jesus.

    I totally hear your patience and kindness in sharing with me. I have to ask, are you aware of these issues in the Christian faith? These huge gaps in theology? For me, it all started because my husband felt Jesus taught the law. It chapped my hide to say the least, as Paul teaches otherwise...

    The legitimacy of the sacrifice of Jesus.

    When we narrow things down a bit, it would be easier. Plus, in order to get somewhere, I suggest things get taken a lot slower and points focussed on. At the beginning of this post, I asked some very specific and pointed questions. You have not answered one of them specifically or...

    The legitimacy of the sacrifice of Jesus.

    Forgive me, but I have pm I need to respond to and I guess you have to have at least 15 posts to be able to do that. I am quickly going to try and get my 15, so bare with me

    The legitimacy of the sacrifice of Jesus.

    Thank you for your kind words of encouragement. It is an exciting story of healing regarding your mom. I have a similar one where I recently prayed for my nephew, who was here visiting, and a strong wave hit him in the side of the head and burst his eardrum. The doctor said you could drop a...

    The legitimacy of the sacrifice of Jesus.

    You are an interesting fellow. I have looked and the answers I have found are in the OT. I am just curious how you reconcile all of this, as it seems you remain Christian...

    The legitimacy of the sacrifice of Jesus.

    I need scripture references for these accertations. Otherwise, it is just more Christian retoric. Frustrating. Still looking for answers...

    The legitimacy of the sacrifice of Jesus.

    Let's not indict Anglicanism of full surrender to liberal theology. While not fundamentalist, it has never avoided these "embarrasing questions" because there are no embarrasing questions to avoid. All questions have answers found in Christian orthodoxy that are reasonable and well received in...
