I would just ask one question to perhaps show it may not be as black and white, if divorce is sin, and God can't sin, did God sin when He commanded His people to divorce? Then Ezra the priest stood up and said to them, “You have been unfaithful; you have married foreign women, adding to...

G-d hates divorce! Well, unless G-d requires it! Like when G-d told His people to divorce and they were sad because some had children. Because this is a glaring contradiction, we immediately know our understanding isn't correct as the word of God is true. Jesus wasn't asked about divorce, He was...

True. It is not a Biblically defined sin, but anything done against one's own conscience can be sin. The one has to look at the root of what they believe and if it's based on truth, as moral panic, and there has been a lot of it as it's media driven, does influence a lot of people.

Nope, the disciples did it. The Bible clearly says they went around in one Accord.

I read some of those names and can hear "A boy named Sue" in my head. My friend Lynell does as well.

I know right? Doesn't my answer make me seem miffed and like I had all the answers? I was replying in the tone of the quoted post, as noted by my use of your words in the post. Do I have all the answers? No. Do I have some? Probably.

Who knows? That said, anything can be a ufo if you're really bad at identifying stuff. That said, I think there are things on earth that aren't explainable. They may be from God, from the devil, from the sons of God, or just made up, and the Bible isn't clear one way or the other, therefore it's...

Not going to debate this, but often the OT points to Jesus. Johan fled and there was punishment, and he had to throw himself over to stop God's wrath, and he spent three days in a large fish because of it. You'd also note Jonah threw himself into the water, which is the definition of a baptism...

Yes they do. On the other hand, I don't believe in atheists.

Rules of preparing kosher food are found where in the Bible? The fish was kosher, how was it prepared? I think this is a slippery slope to go down, as Jesus came in the fullness of the Jewish law, He only violated additionally imposed laws.

Whereas I don't see any of your suggestions of godly parenting and find that if there were some, it would be laced with truisms and not experience. But I too expected that.

You can repent of a bad turn you made in your car by simply doing a u-turn. Repentance doesn't have to come out of being reborn, we have the law written in our heart and can be remorseful and turn from wrong because of that. Repentance unto salvation is a gift, but to repent from wrong is...

Humans like answers and patterns. Then we think if we can't find one, then it's somehow God's fault. My 17 year old son died a little over 2 years ago. I prayed for him when he was growing up. Maybe I could say what did God allow that to happen but I'd rather just ask how good can come of it...

I think that the prophecies re Trump should have made the Church realize that when people do things like this, fathers of the faith need to judge the word, and be accountable. Some did. And when they were wrong, then the whole team should have come out and said we missed it. In my opinion...

I think it's important to realize we are not to judge prophecies based on the OT, as that line of prophet is done. You may disagree, and that's okay. John was the last of the OT prophets, and will be judged as such. In the NT, we are to judge prophecy as it comes up. My issue with all the...
