    Am I saved from the Christian point of view?

    Like falsely accusing someone of trying to get you banned with no evidence whatsoever, is that the sort of graciousness you're looking for? May God bless you, according to your actions.

    Is death just another life?

    Matthew 6:24 is hyperbole. "Cannot" does not mean "completely incapable of doing". It's analogous to when Paul states that "all Israel will be saved". "All" does not mean "every single one". In fact, in that context, it just means "a significant portion". It's a common figure of speech that...

    Am I saved from the Christian point of view?

    So, your point is that you know how to translate New Testament Greek better than those who translated every known English bible in existence? Is that really the point you want to try to make? Let me just tell you, no, you do not know New Testament Greek sufficiently to make any such argument...

    Is there any obvious evidence today for the biblical global Flood?

    It isn't scripure's grammer that poor, its yours! You are the one insisting on using what you've been repeatedly and accurately told is a double negative and its been explained to you, in I'd don't know how many ways, why its confusing/misleading/wrong, and yet you stubbornly persist in its use...

    Is death just another life?

    Here's a hint, Hoping... Simply contradicting someone isn't what the word "refuting" means in the context of a debate forum. In the context of debating something, to refute something is to demonstrate (i.e. prove) that something is false. You've refuted nothing. Nothing whatsoever. You've...

    Is there any obvious evidence today for the biblical global Flood?

    Standing ground on poor grammar is stupidity in action.

    Is there any obvious evidence today for the biblical global Flood?

    The premise being here that you're expressing the same concept, which isn't clearly the case. For you to say that there is "No indication that it (the flood) was not global." is grammatically identical to me saying that there is no indication that you're not good person. The construct, when...

    Is death just another life?

    Anyone want to take odds on whether Hoping has redefined the word "sin" to fit his belief that he no longer commits it? Anyone want to bet against the idea that Hoping's "sinlessness" is identical in nature to his "literal death" in Christ? It's the equivalent to how my, now long dead of...

    Is death just another life?

    Brilliantly stated. You should (and probably do) know that he already knew all of that before you wrote it. He knows exactly what he's doing and he's doing it on purpose. He's just a troll. Pure and simple. The alternative is a level of stupidity that would render him incapable of using a...

    Is there any obvious evidence today for the biblical global Flood?

    I didn't suggest otherwise. You're just being stubborn. That is, there's nothing to suggest that you are being something other than stubborn just like there's nothing to suggest that you're abusive to your spouse or that you have dead bodies buried in your back yard or that you were abducted...

    Is there any obvious evidence today for the biblical global Flood?

    The point Right Divider is making here is that stating that there isn't any indication that it wasn't global ignores the fact that it affirmatively states that it was global. Your statement is like standing in a room with the lights on and saying that there's no indication that the light is...

    Is there any obvious evidence today for the biblical global Flood?

    Speculation is terrific. It can really be super useful, even in a purely scientific endeavor. The problem comes when the scientist gets speculation confused with observational science and starts pretending like they're the same thing, which seems to be the basic premise that the Discovery...

    Is death just another life?

    Not according to the context it doesn't mean that at all. According to James, "works" means.... "enduring temptation" (James 1:12) being "swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath" (James 1:19) "laying aside all filthiness and overflow of wickedness" (James 1:21) Meekness (James 1:21) being...

    Fasting thread

    That's what I keep hearing. I guess I'm just not that motivated to do it yet. You may aleady know this but from what I've learned, the reason you stop being hungry is primarily because your body switches fuel. It goes from burning carbs for fuel to burning fat and, as you say, your stomach...

    Fasting thread

    Fasting is about the best way to lose weight that I've ever experienced. I've started restricting my eating to six hours a day (2pm - 8pm) on most days and occasionally (once or twice a week) I'll skip eating that day entirely. I've lost 18 pounds so far and it doesn't just jump right back on...

    Is there any obvious evidence today for the biblical global Flood?

    I'm actually quite surprised to hear that main stream science actually acknowledges the existence of quantized redshift in the first place! I wonder what ad hoc rescue device they'll come up with the keep from having to throw the entire Big Bang theory right in the trash heap of history where...

    Is there any obvious evidence today for the biblical global Flood?

    From the article sited above.... "The groups of redshifts would be distinct from each other only if our viewing location is less than a million light years from the centre." That premise is based on the validity of a previous premise stated three sentences earlier.... "According to Hubble’s...
