But if any creature of this world sins, then sin has come into the world, has it not? Or was it because Adam had been given resposibility/dominion over the world? Or was it that Satan was not part of this world, but was merely performing a task in this world for a short time? idk No, peas and...

I see what you mean. But was Sheol, "realm of the dead" something that applied to Satan at all?

It makes sense to me, but I struggle with the verse --Romans 5:12 KJV — Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:-- if "sin" entered the world by Adam, how could Satan have sinned before Adam? Did Bob offer...

Good video, Nick. Some of that stuff I'd heard before, but a lot of it was new to me.

I forgot to check the link first. I can't access, as I don't have nor want a Facebook account.

Once more I let a good conversation go stale. There are 3 passages using the phrase, all in Matthew. This normally would trigger comments about it being only for Jews. Matthew especially seems geared for Jews, and I've heard some suggest it was written in Hebrew and translated into Greek...

You are assuming we know everything about Sandy Hook, but there are many events from older times we don't know everything about. Some we find out more about as time goes on. Some fade to obscurity without full understanding. You said he deserved what he got. Part of that was the loss of his...

Maybe "physical" and "spiritual" are not the only things to consider. "Emotional" comes to mind. I guess I'm not too sure what one means when applying the term "spiritual" to humans. If God is spirit, then what is He that we are also? Are we being as His image a 3d representation of a 4d (or...

Not sure what this means. And love CAN be measured by physical beings, though the metrics are somewhat subjective. Christ told us about the man who might die saving a good man. That's a measure of love.

Just like we knew 11 years after JFK was killed exactly who did it and why. Right. And therefore he deserves to be silenced? Hear that TOL Moderators? Arthur Brain just justified his own banning! And therefore he needs to be silenced? Your reasoning is seriously flawed. If only the most...

How could anybody be an actor in something that didn't happen? A false flag operation is not one that doesn't happen, but one that happens for surreptitious reasons. I don't know if the original event was in any way surreptitious, but it was used to silence someone who wasn't liked by certain...

"Effectively"? Meaning that he acknowledged something happened, but that there were intentions to create a situation that could be used for other nefarious purposes. These are valid questions to ask, especially in light of other governmental activities, like the Gretchen Whitmer kidnapping plot...

But it doesn't say whose sin, and it doesn't say the wages of guilt is death. Adam started something--not sin, but death: Romans 5:12-14 KJV — Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so DEATH passed upon all men, (not sin) for that all have sinned: (For until...

Who says? Except if you are "in your father's (or earlier ancestor's) loins" when they sin, then the death they merit is applied to you, because death is final (before Christ, that is), and if a dead man has a child, he can't have a live child. Adam was guaranteed death when he ate the fruit...
