Quote (mikeboll64 @ Feb. 21 2011,03:25)He was simply calling Jesus “my ruler”, which he is. Keith, did you know there are many who are called “god”, but only ONE “TRUE GOD”?This may be true. But EDJ also has a point IMO.This verse also has 2 definite articles when it only needed one to say “THE Lord and God of me”. But it actually says, “THE Lord…[Read more]

Wrong. Without commas you can prove it either way. But context for the whole of scripture easily shows which interpretation is correct. “For there is one God the Father”. “I pray that they will know the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent”.If something can have multiple meanings, then in context you know the true meaning. If I said…[Read more]

Quote (WorshippingJesus @ Feb. 19 2011,09:05)Is the term “Son of God” antithetical to the term God?Why did the devils tremble because he was the “Son of God”?Why did they equate Jesus claim as the “Son of God” to miraculous powers like coming down off the cross?Why did it take supernatural revelation from the Father that Jesus was the “Son of God…[Read more]

Quote (WorshippingJesus @ Feb. 19 2011,09:05)John himself understood that for a man to claim to be the “Son of God” meant he was claiming equality with God.We are sons of God WJ, so are Angels called by this.You forget too easily that we will become what Jesus is. We will be like him and he calls us brother.Jesus said he was the son of God. So why…[Read more]

Quote (WorshippingJesus @ Feb. 20 2011,03:59)Did you know that “us” created us in his own image yet God says “By himself”, “alone” and with “no other” created all things?Its easy for you guys to reject clear scripture with inferrence when it is put before you.You guys will do anything even to saying the scripture is corrupt if you have to. WJIt…[Read more]

Quote (mikeboll64 @ Feb. 20 2011,10:30)Hey t8,Perhaps you could move the “original sin” thread that Adam started to the Skeptics Section.  We have unanswered questions that he can no longer address.mikeDone If there are anymore topics that need to go to Skeptics Area, then let me know and I will consider moving them too.

As saints, we will be judged on our works. Judgement for the sanctified is not about salvation it is about reward or lack of it. There will be people who are saved but will receive no additional reward as their works will burn up in judgement.Some will receive 100-fold while others less, even nothing. Yes, we will be judged for the things that we…[Read more]

Quote (princess @ Feb. 20 2011,03:31)'Just so are these preachers and scholars holding various views blind and unseeing…. In their ignorance they are by nature quarrelsome, wrangling, and disputatious, each maintaining reality is thus and thus'Even if that were true, it has nothing to do with a Believers Area and a Skeptics Area.Believers have a…[Read more]

Quote (terraricca @ Feb. 19 2011,10:07)allthe problem with people who do not believe in scriptures or only certain parts of it ,is that there is no end to there discussion and it tails back and forth or  in a cercle.PierreI agree.

Quote (Ed J @ Feb. 19 2011,14:49)I believe Adam has no interest in posting in the “Skeptics” section.Would you call this… 'Adam taking it personally' ?Funny thing that. If a person is skeptical about scripture, and Jesus then why should they be offended at being put in the Skeptics Area? I mean if being a skeptic is offensive to them, then…[Read more]

Quote (kerwin @ Feb. 19 2011,15:15)To all,I do not support segregation as Jesus ate with sinners and tax collectors.  Kerwin. Jesus said, “what fellowship does light have with darkness”? Remember that darkness is the lack of light. So what fellowship does a person with the light have with one who does not? Believers who want to fellowship want to…[Read more]

Quote (princess @ Feb. 19 2011,14:19)this forum was at one time was a good place for truth, as of late, it has become nothing but a power struggle to say the least. instead of requesting someone to the skeptics section, how about this, edj, i disagree with your numbers, mike, i disagree with you writing three page post. since this is established,…[Read more]

Yes WJ, feel free to bring up any point that I have not addressed in the past. You can use the Hot Seat or Debate forums too.I will make a post in the Hot Seat on a scripture that I feel that you have not addressed.

You know when WJ is stumped because he has no come back and just ignores your points. Then he moves onto other points that might be vulnerable to attack.I wonder how his conscience deals with all the missing points that he passes over?

Gene your body x spirit = soul doesn't work for those souls under the altar of God, unless they are in their body. But they are dead, so surely their bodies are rotting in the ground or have completely broken down.

To those who think the soul is not us.Rev 6:9 And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held:Rev 6:10 And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on…[Read more]

There were other humans. They might not have been blameless. However, I am sure that Noah still requires the salvation only found in Christ.
