    Is "Cruelty" Ever Justified?

    I don't think it will happen, so we probably agree. Or do you think it's likely to happen? I know that it happened among true Christians. none of them carry, use, make, or work with guns. Not sure I agree that's what I am saying. Willful ignorance is not an honest mistake, far as we know. The...

    Do the authors of the NT consider Genesis a literal book of the Bible?

    Philo was a Jewish philosopher and contemporary of Jesus, and never mentioned the existence of Jesus Christ. Philo was NOT a Church Father, and his views never reflected the beliefs of the Roman and Protestant Churches. Seperate topic of many repetitive threads. Absolutely NO they are...

    Do the authors of the NT consider Genesis a literal book of the Bible?

    Just because you don't understand, doesn't mean it didn't happen. Either Philo is a church father who appeared after NT authors as you claim, or he was a Jewish contemporary of Jesus and Paul as multiple people have pointed out to you. The answer is here, wonder who was right.... Philo -...

    Do the authors of the NT consider Genesis a literal book of the Bible?

    First of all, Matthew does not hold up well as being literal on its own. I won't go into it again in this post, but Matthew calls imitation 'Fulfillment', plainly modifies Jesus geneology to be 42 from Adam, and he gives many indications that this is a story not a literal account. So that is...

    Do the authors of the NT consider Genesis a literal book of the Bible?

    The literalness has everything to do with when the gospels material is first made. It is a mistake to presume that the fall of the temple and destruction of Jerusalem (in 33AD) is not the all distracting event of the time, and when Jesus says anything about the temple it is in the shadow of the...

    Do the authors of the NT consider Genesis a literal book of the Bible?

    Those are the verses that I think of when asked the questions in the OP. So, yes, I do think that the authors of the New Testament interpreted Genesis literally. That does not affect my beliefs at all.

    Do the authors of the NT consider Genesis a literal book of the Bible?

    Use as non-literal reference does not negate the prevalent belief reflected in the NT text that the stories of Creation, Adam and Eve, the Fall, and Noah and the Ark Flood are believed to be real history. These citation acknowledge allegorical and symbolic meaning as well as an endorsement of...

    What would it mean to your religious beliefs if evolution were true?

    So what do we do when the evidence of reality conflicts with your literal interpretation of the Bible? I don't know .. the same creator who created this bloody, cruel world we live in, where kids die from cancer?

    What would it mean to your religious beliefs if evolution were true?

    Hi SkepticThinker. Good afternoon. Well it's quite simple really. Whether people realize it or not, what we believe can either destroy our faith in the Bible, or strengthen it. As the scriptures state: "Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see. 2 This is...

    Yahshua My Saviour

    It’s been a little while since I started a thread and I’ve covered a variety of subjects, but I don’t think I have done justice to – or ever will be able to do justice to – Yahshua my Savior. The question in my mind is, why are there so many religious hobbyists today? Why has religion become a...

    Are Baha’u’llah’s prophecies coming true?

    To say that nobody was or is thinking about God is a gross exaggeration. And let's take a look at the 2300 evenings and mornings prophecy... Daniel 8:9 Out of one of them came another horn, which started small but grew in power to the south and to the east and toward the Beautiful Land. 10 It...

    Are Baha’u’llah’s prophecies coming true?

    37For as were the days of Noah, so will be the coming of the Son of Man. 38For as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day when Noah entered the ark, 39and they were unaware until the flood came and swept them all away, so will...

    Clear Challenges to the Trinity Doctrine

    Drinking isn’t sexuality. Sexuality is a big part of one’s identity and psychological makeup/personality. People don’t need to “recover” from who they are. See above. Self-medication is a recognized, medical disorder. Human sexuality is not. Why would one avoid one’s sexuality? That, in...

    Clear Challenges to the Trinity Doctrine

    So what if anything do you believe in the Bible? It says God is love. What about the following, how do you see it? Jesus said, "But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, f but only the Father. 37As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming...

    Jesus' Four Failed Prophecies About Him Returning In The Lifetimes Of His Apostles

    Jesus speaks of One to come after Him. After the Sun of His religion becomes darkened with superstition and fails to give spiritual light anymore, the stars of the heaven of His faith will fall upon the earth, that is, the leaders of His faith will become primarily materialistic involving...

    Why I believe in Christ

    But where does the bible say that Moses & Noah & Abraham & David repented and believed in Jesus, given that John 3:13 says that they didn't go to heaven? Doesn't change the fact that Psalm 2:6-7 says that David was his god's begotten son as well as the Jewish king, even though he never went to...

    Why I believe in Christ

    Matthew 24:38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, Matthew 17:3 And, behold, there appeared unto them Moses and Elias talking with Him. John 8:56 Your father Abraham rejoiced to...

    Overwhelming Guilt

    I ignore nothing. I see what actually exists. In order to fix the world, you have to know how it works. Clearly you do not. Hell does not exist except in the stories and the mind of mankind. After you die, the only one who will judge you is Yourself. It has never ever been about Good verses...

    Overwhelming Guilt

    Considering we've already proven that is me, and I've been sent from Heaven before the things prophesied take place; the idea you want to ignore all the negatives down here near Hell, isn't a logical choice. Of course I can see better paths: The Gospel of John is purposely made up, the...
