    Would you support writing a new U.S. Constitution based on the Bible?

    It would be Taliban II. Jesus said His kingdom is not of this world. Look at all the bloodshed caused by the institutional Churches leading up to and during the Reformation. Yikes....

    A question about God

    Here's the way it works. None of the people God chose to save will ever be lost. And, none of the people God didn't choose to save will ever be saved. So striking fear in a person's heart about salvation can only send them into the world where they belong. Or send them to Christ where God...

    The New Covenant Sabbath is still Friday/Saturday

    Scripture proves it wrong. Jeremiah 31 says the New Covenant replaced the Old. And SDAs don't keep the Law anyway. They all cook and heat their houses on Saturday when it's 20-.

    A question about God

    “Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.” Matthew 7:22–23 (KJV 1900)

    What should I pay attention to if I want to know whether a given piece of text is divinely inspired?

    The Problem of Evil/Suffering

    The Problem of Evil/Suffering

    So God doesn't do what scripture says he does? Have you considered this passage that says he leads people into sin? “And he said, Hear thou therefore the word of the LORD: I saw the LORD sitting on his throne, and all the host of heaven standing by him on his right hand and on his left. And...

    The Problem of Evil/Suffering

    God causes you to will and to do of His good pleasure. He gives you the reason you base every choice on. You think you freely choose, and that involves you in the guilt or blessing. But you always choose what He determined you would choose.

    The Problem of Evil/Suffering

    “For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.” Philippians 2:13 (KJV 1900) God fails in controlling the universe if anyone has free will. They control Him.
