Quote FrancisI am going to assume that your desire to not respond to anything else I've written, is tantamount to you agreeing with the rest of my prior post.mikeboll64I'm going to assume that is an incorrect assumption on your part, Francis.  I know it always was when you assumed the same thing in our debate.  Other than that, you are doing a f…[Read more]

I had originally written to t8 saying that God is not the author of confusion.Asana wrote back with this:Quote That's funny you said that God was not the Author of confusion, right?Genesis 11:7″Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another's speech.”Genesis 11:9″Therefore is the name of it…[Read more]

Quote (t8 @ April 18 2012,21:47)I believe that there are other inspired books and writings outside the Bible. I do not consider the Quaran to be one of them. It opposes scriptural truth and that is the problem I have with it.I also have the same problem with the Mormon Bible, for it too introduces heresy.Hello t8…One could argue that all truth…[Read more]

I put a response into the wrong thread, so I took it out and put it in the other thread. Sorry.

Hello Mike…Quote You want to know if I will acknowledge that “elohim” can MEAN “God”.  I have stated for the record that I do NOT  believe “God” to be a NAME of our Creator, but a TITLE.  And I do not believe the English word “God”, as we understand  it, to be a bonafide DEFINITION of the word “elohim”.But I have also clearly said that I can…[Read more]
