Quote OK, spirit forces. That explains it perfectly! What an idiot I have been not to have thought of that It's so strange that to be correct, you must use sarcasm. Every word above, correct.I feel a little silly explaining extra dimensions to stu, but here goes: Imagine a world that has only two dimensions: Flatworld. On this world, you can…[Read more]

I believe that one sticking to the subject is what is important.If discussing trinity, then an argument against it shouldn't be:'God doesn't exist therefore the trinity is false.'orin the Pre-existence thread,'We shouldn't be discussing Jesus pre-existence but his very existence.'I believe evolution for example should be discussed quite a bit, but…[Read more]

Quote Adam may have been the name of the first person whose name had been passed down. There may have been people before him who knows.God does. Luckily he told us. You truly are a “stranger” and enemy of the Bible.

“He was despised and was avoided by men, a man meant for pains and for having acquaintance with sickness. And there was as if the concealing of one’s face from us. He was despised, and we held him as of no account.” (Isaiah 53:3)Certain that his words will come true, Isaiah writes in the past tense, as if they had already been fulfilled. Was Jesus…[Read more]

I think in the U.S, you guys have it on a different day than in canada. to my surprise, someone on tv today said that in Australia, they don't really celebrate it at all.You know, you can “give thanks” any day, and every day.

Quote Forgetting the Bible for a moment…….Would you consider that “God” (read: a higher power but nevertheless a being), started evolution rolling? Evolution isn't compatible with the Bible. Would you like me to explain?

Quote All of the suffering servant passages in Isaiah are about Israel. Is 53 is not a messianic passage. Well, just as you have been shown wrong (and very obviously wrong I might add) on all of the above statements, you are clearly wrong on this as well.THIS IS A MESSIANIC PROPHECY. And, remarkably, it fits Jesus perfectly.

Quote He was buried in an unused tomb so how could he be be buried with wicked people?Well two robbers were impaled with him. I'm sure they'd be buried somewhere.Since he was impaled between two evildoers, in a sense his burial place was with the wicked ones. (Luke 23:33) However, after Jesus died, Joseph, a wealthy man from Arimathea, mustered…[Read more]

Quote The NWT has got to be the worst translation out there. Actually, a couple years ago, this guy who teaches greek wrote a book on the 9 most widely used Bibles. He counted the NWT as the best. He uses our Interlinear translation to teach Greek to his students. I think his name is Jason debuhn.His credentials if it matters: (He is a Greek…[Read more]

Quote Truly? Part of the Christian bible says Jesus raised himself. No, it says God raised him. It doesn't say “Jesus raised himself.” If it does, please show me.

Quote he was letting himself be afflicted; yet he would not open his mouth.He most certainly opened his mouth. Go back and read the accounts of his trial.–towYou need to study harder. When being accused, he made no attempt to save himself. He remained silent. He didn't open his mouth.EXACTLY AS IT SAYS, HE WAS LETTING HIMSELF BE AFFLICTED, by…[Read more]

Such pains and sicknesses were not his own. Jesus came from heaven into a sick world. He lived amid suffering and pain, but he did not shun those who were ailing, either physically or spiritually. Like a caring physician, he became intimately acquainted with the suffering of those around him. Moreover, he was able to do what no ordinary human…[Read more]

Quote Who despised him? Seems over 2 billion people believe in him.Silly rabbit. Many on here despise you. But does that not mean many more somewhere else do not love you?You are very illogical.
