I think your bible with your “haths” hath confused you.Back to modern english:”In the last days the mountain of the LORD's temple will be established…” (NIV, etc)As for the word “must” I know you are trying to make some point, I just have no idea what it is.

I checked out the thread. Extremely little there.I found your second sentence interesting:I think that since many do not know the Gathas, that such articles will give people an idea what Zoroastrianism is about. Yes, I'm guessing that 99.9% of people, give or take half a percent have never heard of this. This is what I meant when I asked if your…[Read more]

Cute picture Kejonn, but not your most flattering. Quote I could ask the same of Yahweh. Have you ever seen him? Talked to him face to face? My point in asking that was that if there is a God, and he has some purpose for his creation, you'd think he'd find a way to make that available to … everyone….through, I don't know, a book that has been…[Read more]

Quote You know David, I'll bet that other Christians felt the same way about the early JWs and Christians feel about homosexuals today. Today, there's some 80 countries where homosexuality is illegal. There's only 30 countries where being a JW is illegal. Homosexuality or the act thereof is very clearly condemned in the Bible.What God does not…[Read more]

I predict in the next 15 years, we'll be having the same discussion about bestiality as we are about homosexuality. Sure, the majority will continue to frown on it for some time, but eventually, it will be politically correct, fine, acceptable. It's the frog in the hot water. It happens so slowly, he doesn't notice the change. And then he's…[Read more]

Quote Yes, they have found much, but not a single bit of evidence that would support the Israelites being in the desert for 40 years.What kind of evidence? Shoes? Clothing?DEUTERONOMY 29:5“‘While I kept guiding YOU forty years in the wilderness, YOUR garments did not wear out upon YOU, and your sandal did not wear out upon your foot.” (comp…[Read more]

Quote Wheter they removed it or not, there is 0% evidence of that the Israelites wandered the desert for 40 years. Zero. Unless you solely use the bible as “evidence”. They left nothing behind, and they were supposed to have numbered over 600k people. –kejonnSo again, my point, which I believe has been made, is that just because the Egyptians…[Read more]

Stu, can't remember which thread, but in the last week, you somewhere said: “I have no sin,” or something to that effect.Just saw this scripture and thought you might find it amusing. I did:PROVERBS 30:12“There is a generation that is pure in its own eyes but that has not been washed from its own excrement.”

Quote Wow! What do you think verse 5 means? Could it mean just what I have been saying, and other's too, that various religions are all worshiping the same God but just with a different name/culture? Quote OR it means that there is no God but him, however, different nations and people call him by a different name. What do other's think? I think…[Read more]

Quote (kejonn @ April 10 2008,10:35)Quote (david @ April 09 2008,16:31)Quote It was all a neat story, but not supported in any other annuls of history. Archeology does not support the Exodus, nor that a large number of Jews were ever in Egypt. –kejonnYes, and Egypt obviously would want to record all the things about itself that are humilitating,…[Read more]

Quote Yahweh is a bad representation of God.–kejonnSo you believe “God” exists?Tell us about him. What is his name? Does he have a name?What do you know about him? If the Bible doesn't represent him accurately, why don't you tell us about him….Or are you not willing to say that God exists? What do you know?

Quote How did the Kiwi get from Mt. Ararat to Auckland after the supposed flood?I'm going to play the “gaps” card. Just as there are tremendous gaps in the fossil record, there are gaps in what we know about this. Perhaps the kiwi was a species with very few members and located in a very small area. And some guy on a boat who loved the little…[Read more]

Quote Throughout the Bible God's prophets and holy men used magic. No, unless my understanding of that word has changed.Ok, let's get specific here. When you say “magic” you mean “majick” or “magick” or “majik.”The Bible does not say in any way that God's prophets used “magic.”

Quote David,Did you read the thread on magic? No, perhaps you could point me to where it is.

Quote It was all a neat story, but not supported in any other annuls of history. Archeology does not support the Exodus, nor that a large number of Jews were ever in Egypt. –kejonnYes, and Egypt obviously would want to record all the things about itself that are humilitating, or would they? Historians of the past who worked for royalty tend to…[Read more]

Quote Ah, when Christians don't have an answer, they use the “you don't believe it” ploy. So transparent.Incorrect again.Does it not seem odd to you that you're arguing that your morality is superior to what you believe is an imaginary person who doesn't exist?Why not just state plainly what you believe. You cannot have it both ways.1. God…[Read more]

Quote Greetings Jodi….Lucifers' handiwork is visible to see throughout the universe…..there are millions of planets that are in the same state earth was before creation,void and without life…. Are you saying there was life on all these planets and Satan did away with this?

The Bible is singularly different from the writings of other ancient people in that its references to uncanny powers and magical arts are all condemnatory. Nowhere does it recommend “white” magic to cancel spells of “black” magic. Rather, it urges faith, prayer, and trust in Jehovah as the protection against unseen “wicked spirit forces” a…[Read more]

Quote Ancient Egyptians even treated women with more respect that the Israelites. In some ancient civilizations that practiced mother-goddess worship, women were honored as symbols of fertility. They appear to have been held in high esteem in Babylonia and Egypt. But elsewhere they fared less well. In ancient Assyria a man could put away his wife…[Read more]

Quote God's ultimate purpose through the plagues was to deliver the Children of Israel out of bondage to Pharaoh. If I am understanding all of this correctly, Pharaoh's hardened heart (stubborness), allowed God to show his power through the plagues so that the people of the nation of Israel would know that it was God who had come to deliver them…[Read more]
