    Would they believe

    So what resurrection Did Jesus partake in? The scripture say he was alive, not resurrected. The story of Lazarus confuses me, because we read in Hebrew Hebrews 9:27 King James Version (KJV) 27 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: So did Lazarus...

    Would they believe

    What was the disciples understanding of "Resurrection"? While it is clear that they didn't understand that the Messiah or Jesus Christ was to be killed and resurrected, what was there basic understanding of the resurrection? Jesus described the resurrection prior to his alleged crucifixion...

    Christian Doctrine

    When it says God created the heavens and the earth what do you imagine that to mean. I would say it was an image in his mind and he willed that it be and it was. Then he started to make different things from His creation such as man. The scripture reads God made man. Using the dust of the...

    Is Satan actually the good guy?

    I ask did God order Satan to do harm to job in which you answer In a very real sense, yes. Then proceed to highlight You(Satan)incited Me(God) against him(Job) to ruin him(Job) without cause. How do you translate that to God ordering Satan to bring harm to Job? It clearly reads that Satan is...

    Islam thread

    More to the point from the Christian standpoint I think by faith in the Messiah is to say the faith that salvation only comes through the blood of the sacrifice of Jesus Christ.

    Christian Doctrine

    How else do you explain the creation? What? Water can be added to water; but water cannot be filled with water. The state of being God is just another way of saying to be God. How is one filled with being God? Who said he did? Apparently I missed the verse that says the words "God the...

    Is Satan actually the good guy?

    Point being? I thought I was addressing the O.P. who is the bad guy according to the bible God or Satan. My question stands who did the harm to Job?

    Is Satan actually the good guy?

    Maybe your definition or concept of words differs from mine. A game can be won or loss. If there is no chance that one can loose then there is no game Who did the harm to Job?

    Is Satan actually the good guy?

    God had a purpose when bringing Job to Satan's attention, I doubt it was to then tell him to go sharpen his horns. False! He challenged neither, He made a request of God which was denied and he tempted Job and failed. Not at any point so what exactly would be your point? You said it yourself...

    Is Satan actually the good guy?

    Oh you quoted post 10 and replied on post 6 I see it now. O.K. now what I still hold to my example. Yea I'm lost! It is an example of Satan's evil. Are you being sarcastic? Evil... Not so nice are these not a form of a synonym especially when dealing with murder and causing disease?

    Is Satan actually the good guy?

    Maybe you can underline where I used the word accountability? I seem not to be able to find it. Although it is irrelevant to the thread, I thought the O.P. was about how Satan was actually the caring one and God was the deceiver. then you jumped to God being omniscient, Now you are saying that...

    Christian Doctrine

    Through a process, you might speak your thought in the form of a question or an idea, you might right down your thoughts in a form of a statement, or plans. Once your thought has gone through this process it is no longer you, it is no longer just your thought. It has been released into the world...

    Is Satan actually the good guy?

    I still fail to see what this has to do with the actions that only Satan are responsible for? You are comparing the actions of Satan to God and insinuating that Satan was actually showing more love and compassion. Well explain to me how you read compassion and love in the story of Job. You seem...

    Is Satan actually the good guy?

    That in no way makes God accountable for Satan's actions. You were speaking about Satan's actions now your talking about Gods omniscience?

    Is Satan actually the good guy?

    12 And the Lord said unto Satan, Behold, all that he hath is in thy power; only upon himself put not forth thine hand. So Satan went forth from the presence of the Lord I would suggest reading Job 1 and 2 and see just what Satan did when God did give him power over Job and all he had.

    Does anyone really deserve to go to hell?

    I would say if one is to believe in such places as heaven and hell, hell would be a type of fire for purification in order for the soul to rid its flaws. With the always potential to learn and advance forward toward a Heaven, in which case people as you have listed and there are very few would...

    why can't we have a relationship with other men?

    For the believers who think God is condemning homosexuals to hell. This is my question for you. If we are to love our neighbor what happens if our neighbor is a homosexual? If you really think that they are an abomination to God, then wouldn't loving them make you a hypocrite? And give them...

    Does anyone really deserve to go to hell?

    So Allah(God) doesn't punish he tortures? So what happens if he does learn his lesson while still on earth since he didn't loose his life for the life he took? Is he then not tortured? What if we are good people but don't convert to Islam, will we still be tortured for eternity? The good...
