Quote (WorshippingJesus @ Oct. 14 2007,16:50)Could it be Yeshua was saying that unless you are born of water (the flesh) and of the Spirit you cannot enter the Kingdom of God.I believe this is true.  We must be born of the flesh and of the Spirit.  This is why Jesus came in the flesh and the Father gave him the Spirit without measure.  Note th…[Read more]

Quote (Stu @ Oct. 14 2007,18:28)I think there are very many people who are far happier having renounced religion.I beg you to remember that religion is not the same as a relationship with our heavenly Father. For instance, I can live without religion, I cannot, however, live without my God.

Wow!I just got done reading the link you provided. Here is a good example of not believing everything you read! Also, just because it is in the Wikipedia doesn't make it true. Some of their ref's were clearly bias and also their research in various segments was weak. For instance, I raise sheep…….none of them are gay. None.I guess…[Read more]

Have you talked with very many homosexual people, Stu? Perhaps you are a gay man, yourself? I can tell you that there are a great many gay and lesbian people out there who regret their “choices.”

Quote (WorshippingJesus @ Oct. 14 2007,09:34)Besides make up your mind sis. You are trying to say that Jesus was the Father and yet you say Jesus was concieved as a divine man. So if the Father is God and Jesus was the Father then Jesus would be part God (The Father) and part man (Mary), “Godman”. Just like your son is part you and part your…[Read more]

Stuart,Tell me something, how do you know the Bible so well? Were you raised Catholic?When something feels so right, it's hard to believe it's wrong. But as an environmentalist, I can assure you, our sexuality is not different from the animal kingdom. How man gay animals do you know? I have a liberal friend who told me once that 10% of the…[Read more]

So you are here to save us? Stu,What are these “tortuous practices that are contrary to human nature” that we are asked to keep? This sounds like it might be an open window into your soul……Love to you,Mandy

Quote Is not adam called the son of God?Tell me David, will Adam need to be adopted into the Kingdom of God, or does he already belong?  Adam is covered by Jesus, is he not?  The direct and pity answer to your question is yes – Adam is a son of God.  But Jesus is THE Son of God – the only (See John 3:16, 18). In John, Jesus is called the “o…[Read more]

Quote (Stu @ Oct. 14 2007,07:52)You are not only christian, but funadamentalist – you believe things to be literally true that other christians consider to be historical fable, for example the existence of Adam and Eve, which is not supported by fossil evidence and is therefore rejected by many devout christians.So the rule of thumb seems to be,…[Read more]

Hi Pleaseforgiveme – WELCOME!I agree with my brother's and sister's here and will pray for you son. There are so many who are hurting and need the LORD…..Love to you and your son,Mandy

Stu,What is the purpose of your last post? You take an awful lot of time and research in trying to turn people away from their faith. I bet you know some of the scriptures better than some Christians! Why do you study scriptures – you do, you know. Even looking up scriptures that point to God's just anger or punishment/discipline is still…[Read more]

Quote (Stu @ Oct. 13 2007,16:28)If anyone knows for a fact where Jesus' remaining unaccounted-for 23 chromosomes come from then speak up, otherwise the whole thread pretty much is sophistry of the most tedious kind.Well of course they came from our heavenly Father – duh Stu! Hey Stu, how are ya? You are so well spoken I enjoy reading all your…[Read more]

David wrote:What is normal about God's Son being born a human?********************************************************For God to have a human son would not be normal. For a “God” to have a “human” son – that just doesn't jive.However, for a “God” to have conceived with a “Human” and had a “Divine” son – that does seem normal (per se). God…[Read more]

Kevin – interesting observation!

Now…..who is willing to say that Jesus was truly conceived?

I thought it might be nice to include this medical information on conception. It is taken from a well-respected medical site on the web. It gives a point of reference for those wondering what the true conception process is.Here's a primer on conception:Ovulation: Each month, in one of a woman's two ovaries, a group of immature eggs start to…[Read more]

I guess the “New Posts” are wiped clean at a certain time and I must always choose that time to *bump* this topic! Ha! So, I'm bumping it AGAIN. In fact, David, I'll be answering your questions regarding conception HERE instead of in the Preexistence thread. I'll leave a note for you there so you can find me. Thanks.

Oh yes…….the one who “loved much” – this image makes me want to cry, too! Thanks for sharing it.

Cute Avatar “Deborah” Glad to see you,Mandy

Bump!
