Oh, so you're building your split hair case to support a split end?

Wrong hair. You've tried to assert that the Catholic Church is legitimate and most others illegitimate based on the presence of bishops, not allowing for other churches to call the same office by a different name. And perhaps you're forgetting the Church of England, which is Protestant, but...

You mean like here: Acts 1:20 (KJV) For it is written in the book of Psalm, Let his habitation be desolate, and let no man dwell therein: and his bishoprick let another take. ?

Don't "shepherds" lead flocks? Isn't "pastor" the word we use that's derived from the Greek word for shepherd? And don't most churches that don't have "bishops" at least have pastors, including Anabaptist congregations? You're splitting word hairs to make a useless point.

I think that's more Amish than Mennonite.

Maybe more will leave as they put the clot shot on the kids' vax schedule.

There are a few reasons to think it did, but the flood wiped out the evidence, as well as the corporate memory. Just a speculation on my part.

And? What about charcoal? It's made just from burning wood in a certain way, but it increases the energy value. What about alcohol? It's made by fermenting--a natural process. Both can be used to step toward other fuels that provide the energy density you're looking for, and both could be...

Wood.

Calvinists are right to question the idea that God "looks down the corridors of time" to determine whom Jesus should die for. If the corridors of time are all settled before the people they reflect exist, then someone else must have determined what those people would do with the gospel. Since...

Right now? Or back then?

"Model" is a little weak in this case. They are an extrapolation of measurements, which has been very useful and accurate under controlled conditions, but can't account for the things RD listed.

If "all men" doesn't mean "all men" here: Acts 17:30 (KJV) And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent: Why would "us" mean more than just a small portion of those in Paul's and Titus' circles, maybe even just Paul and Titus, the writer and...

There's a confusion about what "saved" means, too, which shows up in the gotquestions article. I didn't see where they used 1 Tim 4:10, but there God is specifically called the "savior of all men, specially of those that believe." If He's the savior of all men, then Jesus just not have died for...

Yes, that's where YOUR logic takes you, though you won't bother to assess your own logic. It is incredible, but you keep doing it.

I'm sure He did, since it says "taste death for every man." You're working so hard to make it say something it doesn't say, but you aren't willing to allow it to say exactly what it says. Aren't you saying, in effect, "God doesn't know what He's talking about; I know better than God"? It also...

Don't be goaty.

You will be able to tell who Jesus tasted death for by who is resurrected from death. Since everybody will be resurrected, Jesus' death applies to everyone. However, only those who submit to His lordship will enter His kingdom.

Agreed. We've created coal and oil in the laboratory...why couldn't they?

No wonder, since you don't have an answer.
