Listen and LEARN, Luke was called of God also to preach the gospel. so, are you saying God call of our brother Luke was a lie? Acts 16:7 "After they were come to Mysia, they assayed to go into Bithynia: but the Spirit suffered them not." Acts 16:8 "And they passing by Mysia came down to Troas."...
It is an assumption that Acts was written by Luke, who confessed that he was scribe writing down other people's accounts, and not a first-person witness of anything (Luke 1:1-2) According to Acts, Paul was quoted by the author of Acts. You base your "personal opinion" on other people's...
Yes it's biased. Biased towards truth. The vast consensus opinion of Hebrew scholarship says the Hebrew did not say "pierced"among other things and it is not about a crucifixion. That was a later interpretation by Christians looking for ways to prop up their new beliefs. You are welcome to form...

Once again your deflecting, and your words have no truth in them. Lets talk scripture. It is the scriptures that have provided to you that show you are on shaky ground and it is the scriptures alone (not me) that you ignore and refuse to discuss that prove your teachings are not biblical. You...
I'm totally confused. And perhaps I should read more posts in this thread before I respond, but I thought that Jehovah's Witnesses believed that collectively, the clergy class of Christendom was the symbolic man of lawlessness who is described in 2 Thessalonians 2:3. Therefore, I don't...
No you do not. I have made myself clear in many posts to you by providing scripture that is direct disagreement with your words. You have also been provided the context to every bible text you have provided proving that when you cherry pick scripture to promote your teachings of lawlessness you...
According to the scriptures a day is from sunset to sunset. A day in the scripture is not eternal. see Genesis 1:1-31
Lets be honest Kenny. There is no scripture in Romans 14 or the book of Romans that says Romans 14 is talking about Gods 4th commandment.
SOME POINTS TO CONSIDER IN ROMANS...
I agree with, and teach the scriptures.
(1 Corinthians 1:10) Now I urge you, brothers, through the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you should all speak in agreement and that there should be no divisions among you, but that you may be completely united in the same mind and in the same line of...
Since the thread is titled "Truths in Scripture", this is the right thread to discuss whether made up things has any basis at all, as opposed to scripture. Especially if one claims to accept scripture.
What's a fundamentalist to you? I hear that applied to so many things, in the same way people...
I made up the term, but I don't want to derail the thread. I think scripture teaches not to be fundamentalists; but I think discussions about and from the bible scriptures are important ones to have. I also have a grim view of the preacher-congregation model. Its a different topic though.
I'm...
And it would be impossible for God to make physical things like humans and animals unable to suffer, that is simply not part of his powers?
I always find it kind of funny with the limitations that religious people assign to God whenever needed. I honestly think that atheists show more respect...
The reason no one suffers in a physical way, is because those in heaven are not physical.
However, there is was emotional disturbance in heaven. - Revelation 12:10
There was also evil in heaven, before it was removed.
Revelation 12:1-12
That too took time, but it happened.
This is the same...
One of the things that makes studying the sages so interesting is beginning to see how they hide what's really bothering them in the way they exegete the text. The example you point out is a case in point. The word באוצרותי "guarded things in my treasury" is not only interesting in that it seems...
Romans16:20 "The God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet."
Wow.
This is kinda buried in the greetings at the end of the book, but that's a powerful message to sign off with!
And what a contrast.
"The God of peace."
Ok, so he's all Sweetness and light, right?
"Will soon crush...

The four gospel writers combined wrote one gospel good news.
The 'good news gospel' according to Matthew, Mark, Luke and John.
Yes, Christians popularized it with the advent of Jesus - Romans16:25 - which was kept secret until Christ.

Paul claimed he had visions and revelations. We have incredibly good evidence that Mark used the Epistles when creating his narrative so he included Earthly versions of them.
This in no way means they are true.

Where in scripture is that told to you? that Heb 3:1 is about the 144000?
How did the lost sheep of Israel turn into 144000?
How do you know that the small flock of Luke 12:32 is the 144000?
Why is the 144000 being added to now when they are clearly not the first fruits?
