AndrewAD,
I believe that each temptation is common to all human beings but that some find certain ones so unclean that they simply resist the temptation before they are even aware of it. At that point I am not sure that is can even be called temptation.

AndrewAD,
It is best to think of the words “God handed them over to their sins” as an addiction. In a case of homosexuality it would be a lust addiction. In the case of homosexual God hands the individual which they put before him which is the sin of homosexual actions. Not every homosexual is handed over and I do not know why one is and…[Read more]

AndrewAD,
If we are born slaves to sin then how are our wills free?
We are not born with the Spirit and therefore we cannot choose to walk according to its ways. In other words we are have no choice but to walk according to the flesh which is imperfect at best. We may struggle to do what is right and even succeed at times but without the…[Read more]

AndrewAD,
But it’s certainly not always true.I do believe that some people are born that way due to hormones/dna/genetic abnormalities etc., but many become that way for various external reasons also.
Are you talking about being tempted by homosexuality or performing homosexual acts?

Are you denying that it is Jesus’ sacrifice that saves those that believe?

I did not answer to this question. Could you please answer?

Nick,
Hi KW,
Like Paul Jesus uses all possible means to reach out to the lost.
But he did not do it to glorify the ways of men.
Logic is not a desire of the flesh instead it is a gift of God for humanity was gifted with reason and logic is just one way to express reason.
I admit reason is a gift that can and is often misused by men but in…[Read more]

Terrarica,
I do read Scripture and what t8 claims disagrees with other passages. I know that Scripture cannot be broken and I know either it is or t8 is wrong.

t8,
Don’t you find verse 12 strange as the angel does not literally say that the baby is the Savior, who is Christ the Lord but rather calls him a sign instead?
A strange way of speech but perhaps normal for an angel at that time and place.
The context I spoke of is the prophecy of the Christ that existed throughout the Jewish society at that time.

If the question is that the angel is stating Jesus was born the prophesied Savior then the answer is yes.
If the question is that the angel is stating Jesus was born the foretold Christ then the answer is also yes.If the question is that the angel is not stating that Jesus is the present Christ as opposed to predestined one then the answer…[Read more]

In trying to hold to a false view about one scripture you falsely accuse me of being dishonest and fail to test your own motives and ideas.
Jesus is the Anointed that was promised to the Jews in Scripture and predestined by God for that role by the time he was born but he may not have been anointed until after he performed the act that…[Read more]

Nick,
I am not the one that condemns it; you are.
Jesus uses it so he must be one of those children whose ideas you so condemn.
Are you one of those that feel that anything Jesus does is sanctified because he does it and not so sanctified for others to do?
That which is not from reason is by definition nonsense.
Just as Jesus stated,…[Read more]

AndrewAD,
Jesus is not answering the Jews but rather continuing with his own teaching. He is going off at an angel using there words to continue. He also did it with the Samaritan woman at the well and probably other places. He could be speaking as he was with her but I favor the idea of his being in prophesy since he states that Abraham “saw”…[Read more]

You may be correct but it only seems to affect that video. I have also checked news sites and it works but I have not checked other videos on this site.

I understand it is difficult to slow down and format in certain circumstances. Just it is hard for me to sort one thought from another in my own head and so it makes it helps when I have guidelines.

The videos I watched directly on YouTube have sound but this one does not. Is my only sound system having trouble with it or is it yours as well?

Why are you repeating words that are not in Philippians 2:1-11 as if they were. You have no argument because of it.
