According to Wickipedia.com, “Syncretism is the attempt to reconcile disparate, even opposing, beliefs and to meld practices of various schools of thought. It is especially associated with the attempt to merge and analogize several originally discrete traditions, especially in the theology and mythology of religion, and thus assert an underlying…[Read more]

Before you said that syncretism is “pure folly.” Maybe I misunderstood you.

This is not meat that has once been offered to idols.Do these questions seem grey to you?What harmony is there between Christ and Belial? (What level of mixing is allowed between Christ and Satan?)Or what portion does a faithful person have with an unbeliever? And what agreement does God’s temple have with idols?What fellowship do righteousness a…[Read more]

Quote Where ?Your post above and most every post where you have the word “moralism.”As I've said before, why do you keep speaking of seeking our own righteousness?The topic of this thread is: “Is observing Christmas and Easter ok,” as in, Ok for a Christian who follows Bible standards.If you think the question is irrelevant, why do you keep…[Read more]

Yes, seek first his kingdom and his righteousness. Doesn't that include coming to know what he considers to be “right” and following suit. You keep speaking of seaking your own righteousness. I keep discussing what the Bible indicates God considers to be right.

Does not learning who God Almighty is including learning what he hates?If you don't know whether he hates …we'll use WIT's “rape” example….if you don't know that he hates rape or not, then you really don't know God at all.You may be able to distinguish that he is not his own grandpa or his son, but do you really know his personality, his…[Read more]

on the trinity doctrine, in your words, “Do you not trust the sons of God to be able to discern these things for themselves?”

Quote Do you not trust the sons of God to be able to discern these things for themselves?Of course I trust the sons of God to already know these things. But what does that have to do with what I am saying?

Quote Is it important to you to make pronouncements for others as to what is evil and what is not? Do you not trust the sons of God to be able to discern these things for themselves? We are to call no man father but you would make yourself a father to others? How is your telling others that the trinity is false and from Babylon any different than…[Read more]

It is clear, beyond a shadow, that the Father, “Jehovah is God.” (Ps 100:3)Expressions we find in the Bible:Jehovah God–50 timesthe God Jehovah–4 timesJehovah their God–39 timesJehovah the God–8 times.Jehovah is in truth God–1 timeJehovah is God–1 timeJehovah is my God–1 timeJehovah is our God–1 timeJehovah your God–455 timesJehovah our…[Read more]

Eliyah's opening question:Quote Is observing christmas and easter ok? What's your views?Do you hide bunny eggs so your kids can search for them?Does St.Nick come down your chimney ? Does he leave you and your children gifts in the dead of winter? Nick's responce:Quote Hi eliyah,Surely you know these are of the whore of Babylon? Surely, by Nick's…[Read more]

Romans 6:9: “Christ, now that he has been raised up from the dead, dies no more; death is master over him no more.” (Compare Re 1:17, 18.)

Quote I have no idea what you believe. That's why I ask you such straightforward questions, but as usual, you have not answered even the most simple questions about your beliefs. I really don't know why Nick is so evasive and unclear. Maybe he just has trouble expressing himself. Maybe he feels he has to “play it safe,” as one of the moderators…[Read more]

Why does no one want to comment on these scriptures:1 CORINTHIANS 10:20-22“I say that the things which the nations sacrifice they sacrifice to demons, and not to God, and I do not want you to become sharers with the demons. You cannot be drinking the cup of Jehovah and the cup of demons; you cannot be partaking of ‘the table of Jehovah’ and the t…[Read more]

Quote Interesting. So calling rape evil is useless “moralism”? Has your “teacher” told you that rape is good? You seem offended at the prospect of calling it evil.The less Nick says, the less he can be wrong.I have several times asked him if he could be certain that he would never kill his spiritual brother T8 if he was in another country and…[Read more]

Quote Notice its says Jesus will deliver up the Kingdom, and he will be subject to the Father. Yes. I noticed that. It was the point I was making. When you are subject to someone you are not really equal with that one. At least, not equal in rank or position. I guess you and others argue that they are equal in essence or being, whatever that…[Read more]

Apparently, Nick can't or doesn't want to answer my questions.

Why is Nick the only one who comments on this? Does not the world celebrate Christmas. Is not everyone overwhelmed by Christmas for a couple winter months? Is it not everywhere and on everyone's mind? I'm going to say this one more time:”It started with false gods. It is still celebrated by neo pagans today. The customs and the date are the…[Read more]

Quote Hi WIT,The Spirit will not teach beyond what is written.What is written is love.What is writtin is “love.” I think I am beginning to understand why a couple people have accused you of being a new ager.A lot of things are written Nick. HEre are some of them:1 CORINTHIANS 10:20-22“I say that the things which the nations sacrifice they s…[Read more]

Quote Sorry I disagree with you. If the Father set Jesus at his right hand and gave him “ALL Power and authority”, that would mean he is equal to God in power and authority because the Father gave him that right. Jesus is at the right hand of God, which means hes not above neither is he below. The only difference is in rank. Ok, so we agree that…[Read more]
