David,

It is almost post not to have faith since all that can really be proved is the fact that that thinks they exists exists. It is plausible someone has no view about whether reality exists or is just a dream but I have never heard of anyone that takes that viewpoint.

T8,

Yes I bounced it to the top so others can see it again.

Nick,

But nowhere is it advised for gentile converts to reject Christ and become Jews.

I have not claimed it has as the false brethren of that time were teaching Gentiles they must become Jews to be saved and even the Jews do not teach that today.

My point is that is also wrong to teach Jews they must become Gentiles in order to be…[Read more]

AndrewAd,

Kerwin,do you claim to be Jewish or maybe just “messianic”? If so then do you adhere to the Saturday sabbath and keeping the Jewish feasts? are these required to be saved? and also physical circumcision? is this a must to be saved too?

There are so many wacky groups out here nowadays and I’m wondering if you’ve actually succumb…

Nick,

It is a theory as God chose whatever method he did to accomplish the same results. I just presented a few things he does today and applied them to what is described in Scripture.

For all I know he could have formed a whale that had the ability to swallow a human being and then created air for Jonah to breath while he was in the belly of…[Read more]

David,

I realize that but my point is that the definition of a miracle sometimes depends on the interpretation of events.

David,

Why does God allow evil in this world?

There are answers but many do not like them.

1) Because he gives us free choice
2) Because we chose it by sinning.

A woman being raped 24 years is the result of sin and of those who freely choose to sin. It would not have happened in Eden.

God did answer her prayers but why did he wait so long?…[Read more]

Nick,

Hibernation is what we call it but the person looks dead to the naked eye as well as instruments we use today. They wake up.

All Jesus states is that Jonah was in the belly of a fish for three days. He does not say he was dead.

Hibernation would account for him surviving that long with a limited air supply as people have even survived…[Read more]

Nick,

The Great White is the only one that is theoretically capable of swallowing a human whole as they are known to swallow a dusky shark that is a little larger than a human being. It also lives in the Mediterranean as well as other places.

Nick,

Yes, reason is just a tool.

Nick,

God reasoned with Hebrews as well as with Greeks.

Nick,

I did say it was theoretical.

Be careful not to be a fault finder.

Nick,

Those Gentiles were filled with unbelief and so remained ignorant of the truth even as it was being preached to them.

Logical reason is useless when applied to Scripture if you do not first believe what is written.

Nick,

The servants of God use reason with Hebrews as well.

1 Samuel 12:6-8Authorized (King James) Version (AKJV)

6 And Samuel said unto the people, It is the Lord that advanced Moses and Aaron, and that brought your fathers up out of the land of Egypt. 7 Now therefore stand still, that I may reason with you before the Lord of all the righteous…

David,

I have not seen a miracle and I only know of those that claim to have performed them. I am a doubter by nature so the only miracles I know occur at this time are ones that seem random and are not done by a human instrument.

Jonah was swallowed by a white shark and the coldness of the water plunged him into human hibernation mode and when…[Read more]

DavidL,

The Trinity teaches that Jesus is the one true God in the personage of the Son. What teaching do you adhere to if you do not believe that Jesus is the one true God as Trinitarians do?

Jesus and God are one in the Spirit just as those that learn to live by the Spirit are.

DavidL,

Jesus is the one teaches me that Scripture cannot be broken and I choose to believe him but you do not. You instead believe those that tell you logical reasoning is a sin even though Jesus himself uses it. Such unbelief is of the flesh and not of the Spirit.

Jesus also tells us the our Father is his God and yet you have been taught not…[Read more]

Nick,

The Babylonian Trinity is a lie. In my study I have never come accost it. The Greeks had a Trinity of sorts in that Zeus ruled the Heavens, Poseidon ruled the Seas, and Hades ruled the Netherworld. The Romans religion was Grecian in form. Hindus are closer to the Trinity teaching and they were conquered by Alexander, at least in…[Read more]

DavidL,

The only obstacle is logic which causes you to deny the voice of the Spirit.

This is evidence that you adhere to the traditions of men instead of the word of God as nowhere is it written in Scripture that using logic but instead God use logic himself because it is a form of reason and he challenges us to reason with him. Man can use…[Read more]
