    Boyfriend thinks everything I wear is sleazy?

    I have only skimmed through half of the comments on here so sorry if someone has already said this but... My first thought on this is to talk to him about this. If he wants you to make changes in how you dress then he should be ready to make changes on his social media. Do you have any wise...

    Did Trophimus enter the temple in Acts 21

    You're right. I had read an article from someone who read his own ideas into the text and I let it influence me. I think I'm learning how not to do that slowly.

    Boyfriend thinks everything I wear is sleazy?

    I don't know either of you but coming from a man, if he doesn't like you wearing revealing clothing it doesn't mean he doesn't find you attractive, it could mean the exact opposite. There is a possibility that it makes it harder on him to control his own thoughts about you. Modest clothing is...

    Messianics who preach circumcision

    Thanks for the response CherubRam This is interesting that you say that, Can you present any more examples of this happening in Scripture. Usually when I read that something is to be observed forever, then I interpret it that the party that is to keep or observe it forever must do so and can...

    MS-13 Arguments Generally Miss the Point

    They obviously are human beings, but they behave like animals, or better yet "brute beasts". probably about 50 years ago I doubt anyone would have disagreed with his comment. I believe they should get a fair trial though.

    Messianics who preach circumcision

    I've ran into a few teachings on this sunject recently, and it has left me wondering how this is justified by someone who believes the New Testament. They say that Christians actually should get circumcised as an act of obedience, yet I am not convinced that this is what the New Testament...

    Did Trophimus enter the temple in Acts 21

    In Acts 21:28-29 , The Jews accuse Paul of brining a Gentile into the temple In v. 29, the Bible says that they"supposed" that Paul had brought him into the temple. Was Trophimus in the temple, or was this just a false assumption?

    Was the rooster that crowed really a rooster?

    Another part to add to the theory of a rooster being actually outside the city walls; if you've ever been to Hawaii or the Cayman or somewhere else that has "wild" chickens running around, you know that there could have been many roosters living under a bush around the perimeter of the wall...

    Was the rooster that crowed really a rooster?

    I also believe that anti-missionaries have pointed to the ruling in the Mishna as a way of throwing doubt on the NT. Maybe the anti-rooster belief is just a way of answering the anti-missionaries.

    Was the rooster that crowed really a rooster?

    I might be wrong but I believe that the anti-rooster group believes that the gospels were either written in Hebrew or Aramaic and then translated to Greek, causing an error.

    Was the rooster that crowed really a rooster?

    I found this site that had some interesting information. Was the NT wrong about roosters being allowed in Jerusalem I checked 3 out of 4 of the references and they were all legit. The English translation of the Mishna on this site refers to a rooster crowing at least 3 times. Mishnah | Sefaria...

    Was the rooster that crowed really a rooster?

    If someone has not heard this debate before, here it goes. Some say that the rooster that crowed when Peter denied the Lord was not really a rooster, but a man. I don't know all the facets to this debate but the anti rooster crowd usually makes the claim that such a thing was impossible because...

    Dark matter

    I know hardly anything about dark matter but if that is true I find it suspect. Kind of like the parallel universe theory.

    A difference in extremes...?

    I think when He talks about cutting off your hand or plucking out an eye it can be assumed that this won't have to happen since neither your eye nor your hand make you sin. Sometimes in the OT God would say things in a way that were really sort of figures of speech like " For I did not speak to...
