Mia Love just died of brain cancer at 49. Quote from her on The View appearance: “I’m fully vaccinated, I believe that people should get vaccinated,” Love began, clearly about to share a controversial opinion. “I do believe that federal mandates are a slippery slope. But if New York wants to do...

Which means, of course, that arranged marriages might work just as well as the other kind.

That say what? Removed from context of the discussion, I'm unsure of your point. That you sometimes throw in some references to scripture that don't seem to apply? No need to show me that. Thanks, you too!

See, you didn't find "a" verse.

But not a good association with Macron's "demiurge" theology.

The discussion just has no meaning if man doesn't have free will. Even our whole conversation is pure drivel if man doesn't have free will with which to have such a discussion. But if man has anything from being made in God's image, it's that he, and He, have the ability to will things and bring...

I quoted it specifically because it applied to the conversation. Did you miss the point I made about it? Yes, I know that's how you see those, but my point was that none of the disciples of Christmas ever told anyone in the gospels or epistles that Jesus raised Himself from the dead. So why is...

It looks like it was removed.

John didn't say, "Jesus raised Himself from the dead." What he did was quote Jesus and explain it was about His body as opposed to the brick and mortar temple. John had a chance to say it, but he didn't. He said this (John's commentary in blue): John 2:19-22 KJV — Jesus answered and said unto...

And the place where Peter reappears is when he has to be chastised by Paul for hypocrisy.

I know, but afterward, not one of the new testament writers ever said He raised himself from the dead. If they never did, should it be how we declare the gospel?

Not true. We regularly quote scripture that give explanation for the ideas that God changes His mind, in which case, the future wasn't settled before He changed His mind each time. I don't necessarily disagree that Open Theism is free will theism. But that isn't the same as saying that free...

The evidence in the bible (testimony from eyewitnesses) says that God raised Jesus from the dead. The only evidence that Jesus raised Himself from the dead is a statement or two from Himself that it would happen, which have to be interpreted to reach the conclusion Jesus raised Himself from the...

I agree, mostly. But if @Idolater thinks it was already fulfilled, I'm curious what event/events meet the criteria in or around 70ad.

I heard a sermon recently claiming that there are multiple churches, but not a single Church, with a church being a local assembly. I'm not sure I'm on board with it in all instances, but it allows for some clarity. Are they? Then how can a single lampstand be removed? Does another take its...

Do you have an event to propose that fulfills the feast of trumpets? Or are you referring to the 7 trumpets in Revelation? If the latter, then do you have 7 events to propose?

Sometimes works of art provide concepts that aren't healthy to be expressed, too.

Here's how I see it. If your theology says that everything you will ever think and do is known before you exist, then you are really the one thinking and doing. Both options are therefore deterministic. The difference, then, is that White believes God is the determiner, while Wiersbe, though...

The problem is that both believe in determinism, but one is more consistent than the other. James White's view is more internally consistent, because he doesn't allow for man's free will in a universe of God's absolute sovereignty. If I were to describe it to you without naming any characters...

Both mysteries dissolve with an openness construct that denies God knows the future exhaustively. Why should we choose one bad mystery over another? It's like picking your favorite Scooby Doo episode.
