Assyrian Church of the East is still Nestorian. These people believe Christ is divine, but that He has two natures. Not so for Islam.

I'm this year banned from all the major platforms. For what? Who can say. The trick is to keep your joints moving. They don't have a blood supply, so YOU have to do the "pumping" (of joint synovial fluid) that your heart does for your blood. Strengthening them while you're at it—also not a...

Isn't it Creedmore? idk, I've never shot it. I think Nick says he's got an AR chambered in it. Anyway, totally agree with the meme, just shoot 7.62 NATO. Endless supply = economical.

The term is re-present, not re-offer. Re-offer necessitates a different sacrifice.

Can speak with some authority on what the main point of contention is, having struggled with it myself. Acts 9ers are not antinomian, Acts 9erism absolutely believes we are gravely obligated to avoid grave sin, just like Catholics.

I think the Lord's teaching on divorce and marrying another, actually closes the discussion on polygamy. $$ Mr 10:11 And he saith unto them, Whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry another, committeth adultery against her. $$ Mr 10:12 And if a woman shall put away her husband, and be...

This part is interesting, I've mused about it before and can't remember if I've commented on it publicly, but it's interesting that Paul's using this word "house rules" especially since as all Acts 9ers remind us, the New Covenant was to be with the HOUSE of Israel and the HOUSE of Judah...

Just following you guys's convo got me thinking from a Catholic perspective: There are arguably three really major apostasies in Church history, the Nicaean rupture, the East-West Schism, and then the Protestant Reformation. The Arians broke off and kind of melted away into the East. Both...

It's not decisive but it's really persuasive to see the Septuagint's usage of Greek words that are also used in the New Testament, because it's literally the lexicon used by most of Paul's Gentile converts, since the Septuagint (ancient Greek translation of the largely Hebrew Old Testament) was...

Do you get this lol? I don't think so. Islam IS Arianism lol.

I don't remember anybody saying that it was. I remember the opposite. Paul calls it a spiritual body. But it obv still had wounds or scars from the crucifixion, so there is obv also some sort of mapping to His old body in His new body as well. A chameleon can change its appearance to hide...

Might just depend on the situation, who knows. Maybe we want to present as an old man, maybe as a young man, maybe as even a child sometimes, again, who can say. It's certainly plausible that He could, no? I'm not convinced that scars, especially from martyrdom, aren't permanently in both...

$$ Ro 13:8 Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law. $$ Ro 13:9 For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if [there be] any other...

Atlanta just tied the game against New England—except they didn't—the kicker missed the extra point. You really hate to see a team lose like that, as a football fan, but I'm a NE fan, so I just have to live with it. But now, Atlanta just got the ball back (after a three-and-out by NE) with...
