Actually studies have shown that growing up without a fathers influence has more to do with a life of crime then what race you are. Unfortunately the welfare system here rewards having children as long as there is no man around. Also unfortunate is that minorities have suffered from this the most. My opinion – Wm

Quote seekingtruth Where in the Bible do you read that the world is being saved now?That is mans teaching; if people would understand that, we would have half the churches, maybe less.Georg I do not believe that the world is saved, I used the word “saved” as a term referring to being born again, do you believe in that?Wm

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Mar. 19 2010,10:05)Hi ST, The body of Christ is one. The groupings of men are irrelevant IMOI agree they are. Do you believe that only you, and those who believe just like you, are saved. And anyone with the least amount of “error” is lost. at least it's what it sounds like.Wm

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Mar. 19 2010,08:59)Hi ST, So you think the body of Christ is divided into many denominations who all hate one another and boast of their superiority?I do not hate others in different denominations, even those who are not true believers. But I do not believe that all, in any denomination, are saved.The body is not divided…[Read more]

I believe that Stu may purposely be obtuse at times just to misdirect from the point being made, because he does not have an answer.My opinion, Wm

Stu,You prove my point, you see the engineering of the pyramids, and that they still exist so you accept them. However a boat that you know nothing about the structures design, or really even the materials available, yet you make definitive statements that it couldn't of worked, while offering no facts to support it. Your allowed your opinion, but…[Read more]

Jerry,I see it more as God allows evil to accomplish a greater good, however I still do not believe that God created anyone evil, only with the freedom to choose evil. In fact you will find on other threads where I postulated that part of the Fathers reasoning for our creation was to demonstrate to the angels the effects that sin would have if…[Read more]

Jerry,I'm not questioning your method and I agree that it is the proper source to establish your case, but what I am questioning is the interpretation of your particular source. I also quoted the definition from a site offering the Hebrew text and the definition of each word. The whole of scripture teaches that God commands us to purge evil so I…[Read more]
