I would just like to point out that at the council of Nicaea there is no evidence that a Biblical Canon was even discussed. And it definitely was not formed for the Church. If fact the first coucil that we know had Biblical Canon on its agenda was almost 50 years after this and the real stamp on...

That is sad about your friend... I grew up in a Church that would of done the same thing... To the original question that was purposed on this thread though. I would consider myself a 5 point Calvinist, but most other Calvinist might not consider me that... and here is why. I believe that the...

Could this possibly be proof that it is not 195 Million years old?

Speaking of things I would love to Lift up my Brothers and Sisters over in the Catholic Faith on... Standing Firm to God's design on Marriage. Sincerely Ashamed Protestant when it comes to this topic.

1st John 3:1 See how great a love the Father has bestowed on us, that we would be called children of God; and such we are. For this reason the world does not know us, because it did not know Him. This is a verse that I think would be good for you to know. My first question is are you a follower...

And the difference is what does it mean to place under law. I would argue that every time Paul refers to the Law in such a regard it is in regards to Salvation. But this debate is not one on salvation. There are people who hold my position that would say things like "She is obviously going to...

So by your definition is my Theological view one that takes Grace from Women? And if so do you mind if I ask why you believe that?

See and its there that the problem lies for "ME". I grew up in a super conservative Church. And I can see that now being out of it for 5 years. But the problem is for the most part I still agree with the doctrine of the Church I grew up in just not the practice. And that has lead me to some...

Thanks. I am not against hearing arguments one way or the other on Woman in roles of Pastorship. I just dont want to Hijack the topic that is already being debated in this same forum. I dont think people realize that in a lot of cases these can and are two different topics. The Church that this...

I think this is a very valid question. And often times on this subject I feel Grace on both sides is lost. I believe the Bible gives enough evidence to show that Men and Women have different roles in the Church. And that Women are not to usurp Spiritual Authority over men. But I will also...

To give you more context I designed this dinner for non-believers. Our biggest advertising for it is with our local soup kitchen. So these are people we assume are non-believers. There are definitely believers present but for they are there to help serve. We open up with Worship (when we can...

Hey Zaida something glitched and your post posted 3 times. You might want to delete 2 of them.

First off this is not an attempt to start another Woman Pastors Thread. So if that is the point you are trying to make (on either side) please head over to Womans Pastors Part 2 and I am following that thread so I will see your point. Last Night my wife taught the gospel to a mixed group of...

I knew when I realized her heart for the Lord. We met online and our first conversations were about our testimonies. As the next year went by we came to know eachother from afar and saw eachother serving in our perspective churches. When I moved near her and we were serving in the same church...

Ok first I want to apologize I have read maybe 5 pages so far and seeing how there are a total of 76 at this point if I am repeating something that has already been covered again I am sorry. I do not believe Woman Pastors are biblical. Obviously I could quote 1 Timothy chapter 2 and 3, but I am...

Wow, I think this is the first time I have seen for myself John Wesleys argument of selective predestination. I would try and point out the flaws in your thinking but honestly... I am more concerned these days with the Gospel and the need for it. (Which clearly is a concern in this thread)

I think his point was more we can not look at a random guy on the street and say "well he is elect and will recieve Gods word, but that guy over there is not". Where as you are right the Bible very clearly tells us how we can now we are saved through our fruits.

Something that was very powerful for me was not that it was someone's daughter but that it was someones future property and so was I. In 1 Corinthians 7 Paul states in regards to Sex that a Husband owns his Wife, and a Wife owns her Husband. This means that if you are to have pre-marital sex...

The problem however is you are trying to put human constraints on God. First off God is infinitely Just as well as Infinitely Love. Those are not in contradiction. When Adam and Eve sinned against a Perfect and Holy God the punishment was and is death. If God were to forgive us willy nilly...

Well in 1st John we are told that God is Love. So no you can not Love better than Love itself. Now you are making the assumption that because someone is not elect. Thus going to Hell and going to suffer the Wrath of God that God does not Love them. And I get this in Romans 9 it states for Jacob...
