Mike,One more thing. From your earlier post, you say this -Have you learned anything from God, Martian? Are you exactly like Him?

One more thing –When talking about us making decisions based on the same criteria as Christ so that we could develop the same character as him. Mike compares it to 3 Y/O's imitating monkeys. I told this to a pastor friend and he was aghast that anyone claiming to be Christian could say such a thing. This is so totally insulting to the mission and…[Read more]

Lest we forget the caliber of those who post preexistence dogma.On page four I ask mike this.Hey Mike,What process did you go through to determine if your conclusions about this verse were correct? After all it is not an original text from the first century and you are not living in that culture. How did you do it?Your response on page 5?Look, I…[Read more]
