OOPS! Sorry! I hadn't noted that this was a Catholic sub. I thought it was a general thread, so, I deleted my stuff. I'm just leaving this here in case somebody read any of my post.

No problem at all. First of all, look at Occam's Razor. The simplest choice is generally the correct one. The Bible is written in a language that people can understand: a vulgate if you will. If it were not for people to understand, God would have sealed it with a Holy Seal, such that only real...

The KJV says 'corruption', rather than "the Pit". If 'corruption' is the correct word, which I believe it is (I think that my crew and I checked out this theory in the 70s) it could very fairly be understood that Jonah died. I mean, let's be real, a. As you pointed out, there's not enough...

I've heard of two different chronologies. The latest I heard threw me for a loop, as I had only believed the 'accepted' one. I'm going from memory here but, IIRC, the accepted date of the Exodus took place about 1440. The 'revised' date puts it about 1250 + or -. I don't think that there were...

It's easy to be glib about what Paul knew, and historical context, but, well, Paul said what he said. We, as Christians, believe that the Bible is God's Word, and, as Jesus said "The Scripture cannot be broken." > "What do you mean by "usurp" and how do women do this?" Good question. I use it...

In the mid-70s, there was quite a revival in Oklahoma City. The people involved were EXTREMELY joyous and spiritual, praising the Lord with every other breath. They were almost manic! Almost. Point being, a few years ago, I picked up one of his books...the timber was EXACTLY like the revival...

I believe it COULD have happened, and I believe that it possibly happened in this case. That's as far as I can go. Evangelist RW Schambach said that it happened during his ministry-albeit, it was a foot, and in increments. I rather believe him. "According to thy faith, so be it unto thee."

Paul didn't just throw this in-it was, as pointed out, one of Paul's reasons for not permitting a woman to teach, or usurp...Neither did our sister. Can't help you out in re the dogs.

Word. (of Faith)

Not an easy question. My own father committed suicide, and it troubled me for 10 years after I got saved. I had no clear answer to this question, but, a quote from Abraham gave me peace: That be far from thee to do after this manner, to slay the righteous with the wicked: and that the righteous...

Glad for your friend, but, we know that the authors of the Bible were inspired of God; can't guarantee anything about your friend.

IMHO, Faith levels would be the same; however, we have much more teaching against healing, so, it's harder to get healed. Every Christian preacher in America will tell you that God wants you saved, but, a small minority will say that God wants you healed. AAMOF, most will tell you that it's...

Matthew 17:20 (KJV) – And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you. I can give you a 100%...

Really, you DO need to go back and read what I wrote, both times.

A. If you think that scientists aren't evil, you need to read your Bible. "ALL have sinned..." B. Just because scientists, all, are evil, doesn't mean that science is evil. B.1. I never said that science was evil. C. You need to go back and reread my post. D. I'm not sensing any Biblical...

Easy, pardner!

After this I looked, and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and before the Lamb. They were wearing white robes and were holding palm branches in their hands. This works for me. Also, just...

LOL, I disagree with a LOT that you wrote. 1. Bankruptcy DOES change your bills. That's what it's all about! 2. It doesn't mean a lot to employers. Many employers don't give a hang about bankruptcy. The only employer that did a credit check on me was in 2013. I had gone bankrupt in 2012, and I...
