    Spectral signature reveals possible presence of life on Mars

    If you believe in the Bible, it seems to me that talk of intelligent life elsewhere is ridiculous. After all, the Bible says that Christ died ONCE for ALL

    Is baptism neccesary for salvation?

    Please read Acts 2 in it's entirety. Don't you think that following the first gospel sermon they would have the prayer of faith to be saved ? Well, I guess they didn't know any better back then, did they ? I sure wouldn't want to base my salvation on something I couldn't find in the bible. On...

    When are your sins forgiven?

    You say you want to take the whole Bible. What you mean is that you do not know how to harmonize it, therefore you will take the razor to the various scriptures that associate baptism with being saved. It is your faith and Gods grace coming together when you are baptized. If someone gives you a...

    When are your sins forgiven?

    First of all the retraction: I was ill-advised to try to interject the passage of Jesus preaching while He was dead. So please just ignore that I brought that one up. Now the reply LouisBooth said: Well since they did it AFTER they were saved, that should answer your question. Where...

    Noah's local flood

    A word in the Bible does not have to be translated the same way in each occurrence if the word has several meanings. That's why translators consider CONTEXT. for example: Joe drove to his home (local abode) Joe drove to his home (place of origin or upbringing) Don't worry, it doesn't...

    Noah's local flood

    Wherever we see EARTH in the account of Noah's food, it's supposed to be Region or local land, I don't see why you keep saying that with no evidence to back it up. Especially with so much contextual evidence to the contrary. But then again, Man (or woman) doesn't turn against logic until...

    When are your sins forgiven?

    So how do you explain awaw passages such as Acts 2:38, etc etc. and that all the salvation examples in the NT included baptism immediately after the person decided they wanted to be saved. PS Christ preached to all the souls while he was in the grave for 3 days. I'm not sure where this is found...

    Noah's local flood

    No, eretz (sic) does not mean local area in the flood account. It means the earth. The concordance I used is called Strongs. You may have heard of it. Have you ever heard of reading in context before ????

    When are your sins forgiven?

    You will have to do much better than that ! The thief on the cross lived under the Mosaical law, not the law of Christ. Also, Jesus claimed the power to forgive sins on earth.

    Noah's local flood

    Rage; Looked at your alleged inconsistency link. Most of them are laughable. Some require more study. If I take the time and energy to answer every single one, will you believe the Bible ?

    Noah's local flood

    As promised, I did a little research into the word erets, which is the world most commonly used in the early part of Genesis to describe the earth. There is another word used in the early part of Genesis which means basically the ground. According to Strongs, erets means "from an unused root...

    Noah's local flood

    It doesnt matter what "they" knew. Remember, it was the Holy Spirit who wrote the Bible. I haven't read it yet either, but I will try to get to it before tomorrow.

    Noah's local flood

    If you will read my reply again, I didnt say you were rude for finding an article. I said you were rude for ignoring my apology, which if there was none needed, you should have said so. You came off sounding terse, but I was probably being too sensitive, so once again I apologize. Between today...

    When are your sins forgiven?

    Your sins are forgiven when you are baptized according to Acts 2:38. Your sins will continue to be forgiven as long as you are "walking in the light" (maintaining an attitude of repentance in your life) according to 1 Jn. 1:7. God bless us, every one.

    Noah's local flood

    No offense meant, although you obviously took it. I was just being facetious. But still, your reply was awfully vague. As I am not in a place right this moment where I would have my references handy, I can make more intelligent posts tomorrow (hopefully). But in the meantime I will leave you...
