    Volcanic eruption near Japan creates new island

    Doesn't that give support for creationism? Then God said, “Let the waters under the heavens be gathered together into one place, and let the dry land appear”; and it was so...And the evening and the morning were the third day. (Genesis 1:9-13)

    The Aquarium Argument: Why the universe wasn't created for humans.

    This reminds of the claim that the entire earth was somehow invented entirely for the benefit of the human embryo: a bunch of teeny-tiny cells squirreled away in a teeny-tiny uterus in a corner of a single planet among hundreds of billions of planets. Why is it a dumb argument? Seems reasonable...

    Creationists: How does creation explain the existence of parasites?

    I'm not sure how or why God did it, but it is good of you to acknowledge that He did it. :oldthumbsup:

    The form and shape of organisms are not determined by DNA alone, but also by external electromagnetic forces: The form and shape of matter is not self-organized by the matter, but is imposed upon the matter by external electromagnetic forces:

    God’s faith in us matters more than our faith in God.

    I would say that God’s faith in us is determined by our faith in God. God will not have faith in us unless we first have faith in Him. Abraham stretched out his hand and took the knife to slay his son. But the Angel of the Lord called to him from heaven and said…“Do not lay your hand on the...

    The great commission is false

    How do we define what a relationship with God is? Is it possible for us to have a relationship with Christ without sharing the good news about Him? Would Christ have a relationship with someone who is too ashamed to talk about Him? "For whoever is ashamed of Me and My words in this adulterous...

    The great commission is false

    No need to be curious. In fact, the entire verse supports my point. To "obey all things THAT I HAVE COMMANDED YOU" includes obeying the Great Commission that Jesus commanded the 11 disciples to obey. Curious why you left out that command which we are to obey.

    The great commission is false

    The Great Commission: "Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations...teaching them to obey all things that I have commanded you...even to the end of the age." (Matthew 28:19-20) In the Great Commission, the 11 disciples were commanded to go and make new disciples, teaching them to “obey...

    The great commission is false

    Picking and choosing is fine as long as we choose only what is required within the context of our own time, culture, and location. If we do not pick and choose we may end up following the Pharisees to keep the law of Moses, as you suggested. Yes. I pick and choose from all of them. :)

    The great commission is false

    The GC is a collective work that involves all believers (the church). It is the church scattered throughout the world that fulfills the GC, even to the end of the age. The command to train up a child is a command to everyone who interacts with children, including Sunday school teachers. We are...

    The great commission is false

    What I mean is that there were some who heard the gospel from Jesus and His disciples, but they were not saved because they did not believe what they heard.

    The great commission is false

    To make disciples is a proactive decision, and not merely a response to a question. “Train up a child in the way he should go, And when he is old he will not depart from it.” (Proverbs 22:6) To train up a child in the way they should go is disciple making from a proactive decision, and not...

    The great commission is false

    The Great Commission is not that complicated. While it is true that not all Christians are required to go on worldwide missions to make disciples, we are all required to be involved in local missions. All that is required to make a disciple is to encourage a person to Christ through...

    The great commission is false

    The Great Commission is about making disciples, nothing more: "Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations...teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you...even to the end of the age." (Matthew 28) Disciples are made by teaching them only what is required of them to be...

    The Holy Spirit

    My choice not to capitalize is not a reflection of my belief, but is simply a response to your belief. I am simply using your argument to make my point. If God is three holy spirits, then should not all three spirits be capitalized since all three spirits are the same God who is capitalized? In...
