You missed the point, you stupid, slobbering moron! First of all, what you said here isn't how language works but, more importantly, my point had to do with the highlighted portion, "ALL THAT IS IN THEM". Whether God "created" them or "made" them, as if there's a difference, the point is that...

This made no sense whatsoever.

No. You've now gone pretty much totally unresponsive. Way to go, Derf! You managed to run out of substance the moment you clicked "Post reply" on one singular post! Since then, you've called into question the effectiveness of the Holy Spirit, the devoutness, ability and competence of the...

It isn't someone "deciding" anything, Derf! It's the biblical record!

What? Is this a real question? If so, it demonstrates that you and I are speaking different languages. I can find no mental path to that question. That isn't what the bible teaches, as I have already established. Your stating an opposing opinion doesn't count as a rebuttal to a biblical...

This is isogetical rationalizing at its worst. If this is how you do doctrine, anything goes! You could start yourself a cult and move into a compound in Waco, TX and then use just this sort of "reasoning" to justify forcing parents to allow their fourteen year old daughters to spend the night...

No, it isn't. There were Jews all over that area of the world and they continued to minister to those groups throughout their lives. Not only was Matthias chosen in accordance with the qualification spelled out by Peter but the Eleven had been given broad authority to act in Christ's absence...

Exodus 20:11a For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day. Exodus 31:17 It is a sign between Me and the children of Israel forever; for in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, and on the seventh day He rested...

Excellent question! The fact that you're asking an intentionally irrational crazy person to make sense just means you won't get an answer.

That's my line! The fact is that they had been doing so but then stopped following it at all, and intentionally so, in response to Paul's divinely directed trip to Jerusalem to explain "his gospel" to them. (Gal. 2:6-9) Unresponsive. The sentence this was in response to was that he did NOT go...

It isn't quite what the English reading of Jesus' words would seem to suggest in regards to the love of money being the root of all kinds of evil. First of all, almost everyone leaves out the word "kinds" and turns it into much more of a blanket statement than it was ever intended to be in the...

So there was a time before light existed, then God spoke and then it did exist but that isn't "creating light", according to you. You are an idiot! I see that there's still good reason to leave you on ignore.

Okay, so first of all I want to say a very heart felt thank you for actually making a real argument! Imagine how much more interesting and engaging and edifying this website would be if everyone did what you've done here. Not that every single post someone makes has to be a fleshed out argument...

More conspiracy theories? Let me guess, the Freemasons founded the CIA, right?

Then what's the point?

I submit that this is a policy that you cannot follow. Why? By what logic? Who is being harmed by an honest use of such terms? How is it more honest to avoid the use of accurate labels?

Yes, I am more often than not. On the contrary! I find it amusingly flattering that you think I'm the genesis of that teaching! Do you read anything that isn't written by a Catholic? "John 1:1 In the beginning was Logic, and Logic was with God, and Logic was God. 2 He was in the beginning...

I was big fan of Spock when I was a teen but now, as an adult, I notice constantly how illogical the character was. As for my avatar, I like using any form of triquetra. Until I just now looked it up, I had no idea there was anything that was called a "Triskelion", never mind that the avatar I...

No, it isn't. Yeah, well since He never said that, you're point is sort of lost, isn't it? Nope! Still not a ad hominem. The term "ad hominem" IS NOT synonymous with "insult"! It just isn't what it means. If you refuse to figure it out or find that you cannot figure it out then the term...

You missed the point. It was a rhetorical question. The point was that "honestly representing God's word" cannot be separated from what we believe. Baptists and Catholics disagree on a great many biblical issues. Do you think that one (or both) of them are being dishonest or isn't it true that...
