Dr. Stephen Meyer and Dr. John Ankerberg explore the problems with neo-Darwinism, and the suddenness of the Cambrian Explosion. Is it sound argument or otherwise?

I am a non-believer interested in knowing what the good news is. I ask because, in my experience, Christians do not seem to agree on the specifics. One might point to the issue of the scope of Christ's salvific provision as being particularly relevant. If the Gospel isn't clearly defined then...

Exodus 20:14 Thou shalt not commit adultery. Is it definable?

Do you not know, brothers and sisters—for I am speaking to those who know the law—that the law has authority over someone only as long as that person lives? For example, by law a married woman is bound to her husband as long as he is alive, but if her husband dies, she is released from the law...

The doctrine of unconditional election and reprobation would seem to be the most awful case of discrimination we as humans could ever conceive of. God predetermines who will be saved and who will be passed by and Man has absolutely no say in the matter. It's dreadfulness needs no further...

This thread recapitulates those posts that are yet without a response regarding the now closed thread Grace is unconditional not universal: ____________________________________________ Note: In acknowledgement of the rules regarding the 'Exclusively Christian Theology' forum, I declare that I...

Don't know if this is permissible, but here's a cryptic... A notable from the Levi priesthood (4,9,6)

In his letter to the Galatians, Paul is forthright in his warning against the preaching of Gospels other than that which the Galatians accepted: Galatians 1:8-9 But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you, let them be under God’s curse...

There is but one Gospel. 1 Corinthians 15:3-4 is the Gospel. Paul preached the Gospel to unbelievers (Romans 15:20) Therefore Paul declared to unbelievers that, 'Christ died for our sins.' And, hence, Christ died for all men. 1 John 2:2. After all, this is the good news.

A friend of mine admitted that his faith (Christian) amounted to guessing in hope. Is this the de facto reality for all believers or not?

John Piper is a Calvinist but listen to what he tells unbelievers from 4mins 40secs in on this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3psJWtT68WE&t=04m40s (The link takes you to 4.40) "...embrace the gospel that Jesus Christ, the Son of God, the righteous one, died for your sins..." The...

In 1 Corinthians 15:3b-5, Paul gives the Gospel: Paul goes on to say: In Galatians 1:6-9 Paul says: Is your Gospel the same as Paul's?

Is God's sovereignty and man's responsibility an antinomy we humans cannot resolve?

In the Old Testament there are numerous occasions where polygamy occurs and yet there is no explicit reprimand. 1 Kings 15:5 For David had done what was right in the eyes of the Lord and had not failed to keep any of the Lord’s commands all the days of his life—except in the case of Uriah the...

1 Timothy 2:11-14 A woman should learn in quietness and full submission. I do not permit a woman to teach or to assume authority over a man; she must be quiet. For Adam was formed first, then Eve. And Adam was not the one deceived; it was the woman who was deceived and became a sinner. Paul's...

It seems that some (maybe even many) Christians have cast doubt on the details of the Noachian Flood. For example: "...it is hardly conceivable that a simple man like Noah could build an ark of such huge proportions and then gather two of every known living creature – one male and one female –...

Romans 3:25a Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in His blood, That Paul preached such a gospel excludes the possibility that Christ died for less than all. Since 'faith in His blood' equates to 'believing in Jesus' (see Romans 3:25-26) then the condemnation for not...
