• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Sola Scriptura is overrated, the first christians didn't need it so neither do we.

Paul's experience on Damascus road is recorded twice in Acts. Do you notice the difference there?
There are also 4 Gospels which give 4 eyewitness accounts. Each compliments and completes the picture.

If you have issues with the two accounts in Acts of Paul's conversion, you will issues with Gospel accounts as well.

I asked specifically for the chapters and verses. Please give them if you have a point. I will ask for clarification of your words if I need them.

Part of the conspiracy. Gotcha :swoon:

For a poor tent maker, Paul sure made things happen. ^_^
Control is an agenda / conspiracy without a need for explicit, personal connection to anything but the lust for it.

You asked for conflicting scriptures but had nothing to say about insertion.
Awkward.

We are amazed at the wisdom of God to give us four books of the Gospel as if to understand it from four directions. Such a thing is not seen anywhere else in the entire Bible! In that I give importance to them in this order: John, Matthew, Mark and Luke.

All other writings should complement these books and are secondary.

Can you not do some homework on this on your own? After all, just one book is involved.

No. Not when it is you that is calling Christ's apostle Paul a false teacher.

I asked for the verses and chapters. I'm waiting ......

Huh?

I asked Rightruth for the scriptures he was referring to.

I have no idea what you mean about insertion. It was his statement that I am seeking to verify with scripture. How is that any kind of insertion? Or awkward?

You seeking isn't awkward or insertion.
The last scriptures he quoted allegedly contain an insertion.
That you had no comment on that is what seemed awkward to me.

Can you refer to the post # that you are referring to? I am not following which scripture you are talking about.

Indeed.

As an old Artillerymen, I was responsible for positioning my observers to see a target area.

Amazing how things come together when 6 observers are telling you what they see from their vantage point.
