    Evidently the Bible is the most widely distributed book.

    WOW! (Yes, I’m shouting). What a great example of the life and light that is in the word of God! I like the way Paul talk about not being perfect, Philippians 1:6 "Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ:"...

    WHO IS GOD'S TRUE ISRAEL IN THE NEW COVENANT?

    As posted earlier, I do not use scripture to condemn you. According to the scriptures, we are already condemned by going against the scriptures that are in disagreement with us (see John 3:36; Hebrews 11:6; Matthew 7:21-23; 1 John 2:3-4). If you feel condemned by the scriptures shared with you...

    WHO IS GOD'S TRUE ISRAEL IN THE NEW COVENANT?

    Your response here... Well that is not true. Your question was answered in the very post you were quoting from. If you bothered to read what was posted to you in the scriptures you would know this. Here let me re-post it again for you here. Hope this is helpful. You are better off reading what...

    WHO IS GOD'S TRUE ISRAEL IN THE NEW COVENANT?

    All of that and you do not address the simple question Bthoth said: Where is a single item by jesus that is in disagreement with me?

    WHO IS GOD'S TRUE ISRAEL IN THE NEW COVENANT?

    Scripture is defined in 2 Timothy 3:16 as being inspired by God or God breathed through men. That is God gives His Word to men to give to the world in spoken and written form. That is the bibles definition of what sin is. The new testament scriptures teach that Jesus is God and Gods son and our...

    Jesus - First Born?

    I understand the story of John 10 and I understand the unbelieving religious leaders did not believe Jesus, a man, to be the Messiah. To be IN someone is NOT being that SAME SOMEONE. We are IN Christ but doesn't make us Christ. Jesus never claimed to be equal to God - he did not grasp at...

    Jesus - First Born?

    This is what I said in post #712 The continuing context is that the Jews picked up stones to stone Jesus because He said "I and the Father are one". That is not something that would happen with Jesus just claiming to be in harmony with God. John 10:38 But if I do them, even though you do not...

    Historical Case for the Resurrection of Jesus

    Accepted. I said that. I just didnt take the long way around. Rejected. Irrefutable proof is not a historical standard for accepting that someone lived. Never has been. [ Rejected. Scholars assume conclude that Paul lived because of his writings, references by contemporaries and near...

    There is NO Historical Evidence for Jesus

    Mark is not considered an independent source. It's anonymous, name added late 2nd century and starts with "as told to me by" More examples of Mark's use of Paul from the journal papers Mark 1:1 uses Paul’s phrase “the beginning of the Gospel” verbatim (Philippians 4:15); and “Gospel of...

    More Conservative Censorship

    Hello Metis, Here's hoping that you have a blessed and meaningful Sunday. I may oversimplify things, but here is how I look at it taking an example from the bible in Philippians 1: 15 Some indeed preach Christ even of envy and strife; and some also of good will 16 The one preach Christ of...

    Favorite one liner verse I never noticed before.

    My favorite "one liner" verse is Philippians 1:6: [6] Being confident of this very thing, that he, who hath begun a good work in you, will perfect it unto the day of Christ Jesus. I love this verse because it tells me that God is going to keep working on me and that I am not yet perfect and...

    Did Paul believe his spirit could survive death?I think he did.:)

    Its like this. To live is Christ and to die is gain. Philippians 1:21

    Legitimate reasons not to believe in God

    Again you have no idea of the complexity or the scope of the evidence. It is conclusive. If you want to see how Moses is a literary construct start with Thomas Thompson Historical Narrative of the Patriarchs. Of course ancient history of the Quran you are completely convinced it's conclusive...

    Legitimate reasons not to believe in God

    I'm more of a scientist and mathematician than an historian. I have always observed that history of an event can dramatically change, depending on which party is narrating it. As I've got older, I am more interested in history, but in regards to "evidence", I do not rate it .. particularly...

    Sabbath Issues

    Well, according to the traditions of the Roman Catholic church, the pope, supposedly Peter's heir, is "Christ on earth". As for your referred quotes from the NT, a product of a harlot daughter of Babylon (Rev 17), who sits on the "beast"/Rome (Rev 17:3), Paul (Zech 11:10) is one of the two...

    Sabbath Issues

    Jesus is quoted in the Christian New Testament saying a person can not serve two masters. Christians are servants of Jesus, not servants of Peter. See I Corinthians 4:1-2, Galatians 1:10, Philippians 1:1-2 among other verses.

    What do you think of Philippians 1:24?Paul mentions this in my fist post.:)

    How good is science as a religion?

    One God: TheAlmighty Father, maker of all things

    Jesus is the word of God. Yes, Jesus is the word of God… The word God gave to Jesus is what Jesus speaks… so, yes, Jesus speaks God’s word…. Just as a good emissary speaks the words of the king who gave him the words to speak: ‘The words I speak are not my own, but my Father who lives in me...
