It's here for all to see RD.

Of course it does. It comports with John 3:16 for one thing, but also with later on in the letter, 1st Corinthians 15:3, viz. "Christ died for our sins" In the same way that He is our Passover Lamb, He "died for our sins." It's the same thing. And not even Dispensationalism denies that 1st...

idk about that. Seems to me that without demons "whispering" to Eve, that she could have obeyed God and avoided that tree. Certainly the Serpent is an important character in the story's plot. I said already this is important for theology but it's just as important for theism generally. Why...

Do you think any of this bears on Luke 10? "17 The seventy-two returned with joy, saying, “Lord, even the demons are subject to us in your name!” 18 And he said to them, “I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven." One could argue the number 666 represents 2/3 (666 being roughly 2/3 of 1000)...

OK. I guess that does avoid the problem of why God would give the World to Adam and Eve, with demons included then. Because there were no demons until Satan fell /rebelled, right there in Genesis. That would also explain why God would call His creation "Very Good," because at that point, it...

Thank you. So that's why he was in the Garden? is what you're saying? Because he got kicked out of Heaven? So the only realm left was Earth? Why couldn't God have just killed him? This is why I'm saying it's very important for theology to deal with this Scriptural fact of the Accuser's...

You stand corrected by me, not by JR. Whether it's rendered "Passover" or "Lamb," either way you lost the argument. It's here for everyone to see. And by you I mean Dispensationalists.

Test the spirits. When we're reading Scripture, we're reading the Holy Spirit (that's what Catholics believe), so whatever spiritual proposal we're considering, if it conflicts with Scripture that's one test. It might not test out, in which case, you can ignore that idea, forever, permanently...

Here are two Catholic treasures, Father Mike Schmitz, and Father Casey Cole. Note the second video was just before Fr. Casey was ordained (so he was not "Father" yet).

The other one's getting a little long in the tooth and otherwise. https://theologyonline.com/threads/answering-old-threads-thread.58428/ This is a good old thread: I don't disagree with anything Lon says here, but it's important to note that demons don't only want us to sin, in fact, they're...

Have you two ever thought about how Satan the Evil One had access to Eve's mind even before she or Adam ever actually, objectively sinned? That means God's perfect creation for man, was a World with demons. How does this square with God being just, and with God not being the author of all sin...

It's interesting, right? Priests. It doesn't matter which deity they serve, priests are doing two things for people, they are mediating between the people and the deity, and they are offering sacrifices on altars to that deity (on behalf of the people). Even though we know almost nothing...

Genesis 14 (18) And Melchizedek king of Salem brought out bread and wine. (He was priest of God Most High.) John 6 (55) For my flesh is true food, and my blood is true drink. Does verse 26 imply that the Corinthians should take Communion as much as possible? (18) Consider the people of...

It means, this is very serious; we should take this seriously.

Meaning, they actually were Catholics to begin with (which meant, in the 13th century, they were Christians, and not Eastern Orthodox (no other options, in the 13th century). Explains the hatred. Do you know why it was particularly the stone masons? Why not some other guild? The pope just...

Wow. Now there's anti-Catholic, and then there's the Freemasons lol. I had no idea, about Copeland. Most if not all public intellectual Protestant pastors are anti-Catholic, so that part of his shtick wouldn't have caught my attention with Copeland, but Freemasons have a history of warring...

The Greek word there is where we get the word "Eucharist," which is what Catholics (and Orthodoxy) call the Lord's Supper or Communion. It means giving thanks, or thanksgiving. That word "participation" can also be rendered "Communion." Amen. Along with "Alleluia" and "Hosanna," these are...

Our Lord spent time with whores. Doesn't mean He was pro-prostitution.
