That's you, reading your doctrine into the text. She believed what the angels told her. Being a Christian requires one place their faith in Christ for the remission of their sin, which you don't even believe she needed! Yes, if you understood the dispensation of Grace that was given to Paul by...

Saying it doesn't make it so. Make an actual argument - PLEASE!

I have yet to have A.I. do anything that's all that super impressive other than to be able to properly (mostly) interpret and respond to human language. I mean, it's an amazingly useful tool but its nowhere near becoming sentient or even intuitive, so far as I've seen. One thing's for sure, the...

This statement is more true than you're likely willing to admit! Jesus wasn't simply logical, He is Logic! John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing...

I agree that no such right exists but the argument here is incomplete. It isn't immoral because God said so but rather the reverse. God said it is immoral because it is objectively immoral. Why then is it immoral? Simply put, because it leads to death, which is what it means to be immoral...

Yes.

This is an argument for why you aren't a Christian, not why you aren't a dispensationalist. Yeah, many Catholics have simply embraced communism. Yikes! (y) There is actually some significant disagreement amongst dispensationalists about both Communion and water baptism. As for me, I consider...

If that were true, both of those sentences would be irrelevant. Do you mean, "What is important is that we honestly believe that we are representing the word of God and face up to reality when it proves us wrong."? Why? Do the terms "Open theism", "Calvinism" and "Mid-Acts Dispensationalism"...

No it isn't! That's just ridiculous! How on planet Earth could it be a ad hominem to lament the near continuous and almost universal misuse of the term "ad hominem"? People throw the term around exactly as if it is synonymous with calling someone a name. IT ISN'T! That isn't what it means! And...

Just as you cannot prove there there were, is that what you mean? No, of course, that isn't what you meant but perhaps you're a step closer to understanding why people ought never be asked to prove a negative. This point is neither relevant nor in dispute. It doesn't matter if they were. I...

Romans 15:20 And so I have made it my aim to preach the gospel, not where Christ was named, lest I (Paul) should build on another man’s foundation, 21 but as it is written: “To whom He was not announced, they shall see; And those who have not heard shall understand.” 1 Corinthians 3:10...

Is there anything someone want to post on this topic that isn't mindless stupidity or are we finished here?

Calling someone who a hypocrite who is being hypocritical ISN'T an ad hominem! Good Lord please somehow have people figure out what "ad hominem" means before letting them post stupidity like this on the internet!!!!!

That isn't all you did and you know it. Don't destroy what has been at least a somewhat descent discussion by stooping to stupidity and lies. You presented those words in response to my pointing out that Freemasons and Shriners in particular do a great deal of good when it comes to helping sick...

Translation: "I've run completely out of anything substantive to say so I'm going to resort to ad hominems." Hypocrite!

Except that there seems to be no evidence that the Freemasons amount to much of a tare, if any at all. What harm do they do to anyone? I mean, if they're evil, they're simultaneously one of the largest and wealthiest and most totally ineffective forces of evil the world has every seen!

This sort of thing is the main reason I consent to participate in discussions with conspiracy theorists. They are their own best refutation. It's never very long before they begin to just sound completely ridiculous. What Jesus said in Matthew 6 has exactly NOTHING to do with what we're talking...

I dismiss your interpretation of history and I've stated at least once already that I do not hold people responsible for the transgressions of their ancestors. Do you reject the observance of Easter and Christmas because of their history? Do you and your wife have any desire to get rid of...

If you think that love and justice are at odds with each other than you do not know God.

They knew it was wrong after they were told, which was BEFORE they committed the offense or else there would not have been an offense - by definition. Well there's your opinions and then there's God's own word. The whole of Romans 5 is false if what you say is correct. Romans 5:12 Therefore...
