Was Peter the “rock” on which the church was built?Matt. 16:18, JB: “I now say to you: You are Peter and on this rock I will build my Church. And the gates of the underworld can never hold out against it.” (Notice in the context that the discussion centers on the identity of Jesus.)Whom did the apostles Peter and Paul understand to be the “rock,”…[Read more]

Quote If you ever actually talk to a witch (like I have), or read a little about the Wicca religion (like I have), you will find that their birthdays are the most powerful time for them – not Halloween.–MandySo then, did “Christians” borrow or adopt the birthday custom from pagans?

Quote You see, many believe that Halloween is the most powerful time for witches and spirits, but that is not true. –MandyGood point mandy.It's more so the hundreds of human sacrifices and the Satan worshippers that bother me.I have watched a documentary on halloween recently and I've researched halloween most years around this time. Out of all…[Read more]

2 Samuel 24:1 reads: “And again the anger of Jehovah came to be hot against Israel, when oneincited David against them, saying: ‘Go, take a count of Israel and Judah.’” The “one” who did the inciting is not there identified. 1 Chronicles 21:1: “Satan proceeded to stand up against Israel and to incite David to number Israel.”This rendering agree…[Read more]

Quote the name michael simply makes a statement that there are none like God ,he is not to be compaired too.Wouldn't dream of it Michaels, comparing or trying to equate God with Jesus or Michael..By the way, I would refrain from comparing Jesus to an “ant.”He sits at the right hand of God, having more power and authority than you can conceive. As…[Read more]

Yes, but my question was more this:”If evolution were true all plants, animals and insects would be in a continual state of change. No two creatures would be identical because there would not be separate species. There would be a continual blend of characteristics without a clear definition among the species. Everything would be changing and every…[Read more]

I guess your answer is probably that these things are rare and that we see the evidence of it in the many species we do have.

Stu, I'm wondering what your answer would be for this:”If evolution were true all plants, animals and insects would be in a continual state of change. No two creatures would be identical because there would not be separate species. There would be a continual blend of characteristics without a clear definition among the species. Everything would be…[Read more]

Quote I think I have always “known” the claims of Judeo-Christianity to be false, along with tarot readings, horoscopes, UFOs and tooth fairies.What? We're picking on the tooth fairies now?

Nobel laureate Werner Heisenberg concluded, “What we observe is not nature itself but nature exposed to our method of questioning.” When Columbus arrived in the New World, he had a theory that he was in Asia and proceeded to perceive the New World as such. Cinnamon was a valuable Asian spice, and the first New World shrub that smelled like…[Read more]

Hey Kejonn.Some of my thoughts on this are on page 14. i'm still working on organizing my thoughts here.

Hi t8.I was wondering if it's time to organize this site even more. You could easily have one section on just the trinity, where about 1/4 of all these threads could fit under in subsections.I just find it so frustrating when multiple threads on the same subject are started. Is there any way to organize this site so that all the multiple threads…[Read more]

Here's another one. I don't think this one is the one I was thinking of either. I think there's a massively large thread out there.

Kejonn, here is one such thread. (I don't think this is the one I was referring to though)

Quote David, are you agreeing with meNo I am not. I am just trying to figure out what mandy believes.

Quote For a “God” to have a “human” son – that just doesn't jive.–Mandy.Is not adam called the son of God?Quote Now…..who is willing to say that Jesus was truly conceived?–MandyMandy, I'm really not sure where you're going with this word “conception.”Those who translated the Bible from the original language use that word “conceive.”You go and…[Read more]

T8, please delete this thread and point Kejonn to one of the other 4 threads of the exact same subject.For the record, I refuse to respond in this thread. One is enough. Search “Michael.”I have had these discussions in each of these other threads. Why can't we just use one of those. kejonn, if you would like to know what “they” base these…[Read more]

Quote To All,There is only one type of speaking in tounges, a gift so that the “teacher” may speak in the language to the listener, that the listener will comprehend. It is a gift given to for the only purpose to build up the body of Messiah.Remember the Tower of Babel, Elohim confused the languages to prevent the pererted worship of men and…[Read more]

Quote Basically, Paul was rebuking against the use of tongues for the mere sake of a sign or for drawing attention to one's self. If the gift of tongues was supposed to be a sign of spirituality, Paul is saying these people were using it as a way to show their spiritual superiority. Thus, he tells them that tongues are of no use if there is no one…[Read more]

Quote If you have never been a part of a witnessing team that goes to inner city streets – I encourage you to assemble a group together and GO! Street witnessing is fun in that you get to choose who you want to talk to. Plus, there's often much more interesting people on streets then behind closed doors in houses.
