Quote (david @ April 24 2014,21:02)If they were not to do slave labor I wonder what exactly makes them a slave.  If ownership is the sole requirement then my dog is a slave. And perhaps my child is a slave.Now who's “confused about the difference”?  A slave is a HUMAN BEING who is either forced into slavery, or who SELLS HIMSELF into it.A dog is n…[Read more]

Quote (david @ April 24 2014,20:59)We may call both slaves. But they were not the same. They were treated differently with a different set of rules. I'm sure we agree on this at least.Yep,We agree on that, David. Still not seeing where I spoke “incorrectly”.

Quote (david @ April 24 2014,20:43)Quote (mikeboll64 @ April 25 2014,13:06)Dude, face it……. we are both stubborn.  I will not give you the satisfaction of “admitting” that I spoke incorrectly when I technically DIDN'T.  Notice the word “choice.”  I would argue it's not a great choice and not much of a choice but it is a choice.Yes David,I re…[Read more]

Quote (4Thomas @ April 24 2014,01:15)Quote (mikeboll64 @ April 18 2014,12:24)1.  I want you to recognize that the Apostles of Christ who made the prayer in Acts 4 did NOT consider Jesus to be the one who “made the heavens and the earth and the sea, and everything in them”.Do you recognize that fact?  YES or NO?2.  Are you willing to use the di…[Read more]

Kerwin,If Ed was indeed complimenting t8 for helping him to gain victory over his enemy Satan, who had Ed bound for a few months, then I also apologize to Ed.But I think Ed was referring to t8 as “satan”, and touting his own victory over t8/satan.

Quote (kerwin @ April 26 2014,20:51)Mike,Spiritual flesh is “governed by the Spirit of God” which is 3b. Natural flesh is “governed by breath”Note: naturalNo Kerwin,THE FLESH COUNTS FOR NOTHING.

Quote (Gene Balthrop @ April 27 2014,08:31)Wakeup………I agree with Nick, where did you come up with all this stuff. You seem to just put things together as you see fit brother,  piece milling without  specific scripture backup only furthers confusion here. IMOI agree with Wakeup. He has, for the most part, said it as it is.

Quote (kerwin @ April 26 2014,19:29)Mike,It is the spiritual side of a man that gives life to the flesh.  The Spirit of God is even more powerful.  Jesus is speaking of the Spirit of God, the Spirit God gave to him, it descended and later ascended but his flesh counted for nothing.It is one of the times he chose to speak a little clearer to his a…[Read more]

Charles,Your posts are long, confusing, unscriptural, and often have many insults directed at me.I don't have time for nonsense.If YOU can CLEARLY and DIRECTLY show me why God the Father is ONLY the Father of male human beings, but Jesus is the “Father” of both male and female human beings, do it BRIEFLY.Nick and I have already posted scriptures…[Read more]
