Quote (shimmer @ Aug. 28 2011,12:54)Matt 19:He (Jesus) said to him, “Why do you call me good? No one is good but one, that is, God.  If you want to enter into life, keep the commandments”.Matt 22:(Jesus speaking) “Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind”.

Quote (Ed J @ July 26 2011,12:36)Quote (seekingtruth @ July 21 2011,07:08)Ed J,Personally I like anything that could shed extra light on scripture,  Although I always regard it with some suspicion and disregard it if it conflicts with scripture. However there have been times that I have changed my beliefs on a subject where the additional…[Read more]

Kathi,Genitive, verb, accusative, noun, direct object, dangling participle… WHAT!… Can you translate that into English for me Greek… I still do not have English down. I'm joking of course, it seems I'm misunderstood a lot lately, perhaps I should have paid more attention to grammar in school. Thanks Sis

Ed,You misunderstood me, I agree that 1Corinthians 6:20 is possessive, I agree that the word used in Psalm 82:6 could mean possessive but JESUS SAID “33 The Jews replied, We are not going to stone You for a good act, but for blasphemy, because You, a mere Man, make Yourself God.34 Jesus answered, Is it not written in your Law, I said, You are…[Read more]

Quote Example #1. The Hebrew use of the word “Adam”. (Genesis 5:2)         In modern English we have the collective form of the word man: “Mankind”.         Example #2. The Hebrew use of the word “gods”. (Psalm 82:6)         In modern English we have the possessive form of the word God: “God's”.Ed,While example 1 is a good point, I cannot agr…[Read more]

Happyman, Ed, & TK,You three summed up how I feel, once I have laid out my argument as best I can and an opponent is asking further questions, not to understand, but for ammunition to formulate a response, it has gone far enough. Along that same line; once someone reaches the point that love is no longer his/her motivation and they begin to…[Read more]

My wife is 8 days younger then me.Thanks all for the belated happy birthday.Wm

Keith, My 56th was 12 days ago, but you got me beat on years with Jesus, I'll celebrate 32 in a few weeks.Happy Birthday

Irene,It got down to 36 this morning, she took something and it went up for a little awhile then went back to 36. However she is out of hospital now they got it up over 200 and now she feels fine. Thank you for your prayers.Wm

My Mom had a seizure this morning (blood sugar too low) and they've rushed her to the hospital (she's 750 mile away). I would appreciate your prayers.Wm

Quote radiocarbon dating is done from a calibration curve that uses data from samples of independently known age to account for changes in isotope ratios.Calibration curve, a scientific term for fudge factor implemented using circular reasoning. They confirm the current ratio back a few thousand years (a period not in dispute by either side of the…[Read more]

The process assumes equilibrium through out history. However a major atmospheric disturbance (such as a Biblical flood) could have changed the ratio making items appear older with a higher percentage of carbon 12. Wm

The ratio of C-14 to C-12 as a historical constant.Wm

Stu,Are there assumptions made in radiocarbon dating process?Wm

Posted elsewhere:Do not argue with a fool. He will drag you down to his level and beat you with experience.Just a joke not in reference to anyone here.

Thank you to all who have responded it is appreciated. Truth is obtained only by revelation from the Holy Spirit, we should both seek and share it. I guess if we had all truth and wisdom we would “put our opponents to silence” & “from that day on no one dared to ask him (us) any more questions.” but I'm lacking in both. So the best I can do is lay…[Read more]

Thanks Kathi,I started this poll out of a desire to determine if I was out of line by refusing to carry on arguments. I really do believe it is wrong to argue endlessly on non-essential issues, but others feel its lazy, cowardly, lacking integrity, etc. so I wanted to see if there are any valid arguments to doing so. Good point on fools, I always…[Read more]

Mike,All can review our discussions on page 3 section 7 (the long post), and determine for themselves who has made false accusations. I however will post no further on this topic with you, we are warned by scripture against quarreling over words and the evolution of this discussion has demonstrated why that is good advice. I suppose now you can…[Read more]
