Quote (adwolf @ Feb. 17 2006,03:56)What is evil is belief. Knowing is much better wouldn't you agree! The truth is that man is willing to die for his beliefs and convictions. Not take responsibity for his own sins but say that another will free you of your responsiblity or your truth! True salvation is earning it, not by another. God doesn't put…[Read more]

Hey WIT!I think we are saying the same thing for the most part, but I feel the semantics in there somewhere!Quote Semantic? Possibly. But, I take Ezekiel 18 literally. In YHWH's eyes, I am responsible for my own sin and no one else's. “Inherited sin” sounds to me like we are not truly responsible for the sin in our lives.Make sense?As relates…[Read more]

Hello WIT:I understand Ezekiel 18:20 to be different from the foundational sin that took place in Eden which polluted everything and everyone on earth for which all living things  die.  Ezekiel 18:20 is applicable post Eden/Adam.  It applies to what we do now and has effect on who escapes or partakes of the second death.  What happened in Eden was…[Read more]

Coming to think of it, several people have been in government in the scriptures. E.g. Joseph of Egypt being second man to Pharoah. That's government and not even a democracy! Nehemiah and all those guys put in charge by the Babylonians/persians/Medes/Assyrians to oversea the rebuilding of Jerusalem and the temple were government officials, were…[Read more]

Wow, cool lyrics, MrBob. Thanks for sharing it. I was thinking of the word, "sorry." But actually I get tired of the word sometimes; I am thinking of the 180 degree turn that brings about change rather than the same-old, same-old.

Quote You are the first person, that I know of, to say that “Christ inherited sin”.  Either I misunderstand what you mean by that, or you have just disqualified Messiah as the “lamb without spot”, (1 Peter 1:19).  Are you simply saying that Messiah was born into a sinful world where he would be taught sin by sinful people from an early age, or a…[Read more]

Thanks, David, also for the definition on sin which I shall have to rely on to answer WIT.  WIT:  Since we typically think of the law as that given on Sinai, it is important then to note that sin existed before those laws were given so your definition must refer to the command given in the Garden of Eden. I also benefited by Sultan's bringing to t…[Read more]

Hi RR & WIT,With prayer that Jesus bless the little children all over the world, I must say yes.  We are born with sin.  We are born with sin which is why a newborn baby may die having not necessarily “sinned.”  The wages of sin is death.  Death should have no effect on anyone if he/she is truly without sin.  This applied to the sinless Chri…[Read more]

Woutlaw Just found out about this (Thurs night on East Coast) so I shall have to use the link or else catch the program next Wednesday. Looking forward to it and thanks for bringing it to our attention! “”Not by might nor by power but by my spirit,' says the YHWH”

Quote (Bastian @ Dec. 15 2005,14:56)Hello Mr. BobMight I add that because of modern day parents need for “things” both work. Things are more important than children. Therefore they do not nurture and care for the children they birth, but send them off the be raised by strangers.  We subcontract strangers to do what we are called to do as parents,…[Read more]

Hi Woutlaw and everybobdy,Great thread.  I agree with Kenrch and Sultan.  One of Judah's sons was killed when he practiced birth control to avoid getting his wife TAMAR (I) pregnant.  This served as the precept to form my standard on the subject, that God must not like that.When we consider the fertile years of a woman, her monthly menstrual cy…[Read more]

Hi Doc,We're thinking of you, praying for you and missing you.  Hope your tummy is feeling less and less like a rhino played American football with it and more importantly, that you are on the mend.

Eliyah and all, just started reading the discussions in this thread. I am grateful for the exchange and contributions of all. Certainly worth looking into further to see if these things are so and if so, what do we do about it. For one thing, I do not celebrate or acknowledge Halloween. Even the imageries are plain enough in most instances.…[Read more]

I plan to make the time to read your OP.

Quote (liljon @ Aug. 30 2005,13:10)There is not one verse that says he had a God prior. Jesus is Eternal and he existed with the Father always. John 1:1, 8:58It still does not imply a trinity. Two persons are spoken of, and one is always shown to be the God of the other.
