    What is Faith?

    Romans 4:5 But to him who does not work but believes on Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is accounted for righteousness,

    Is there a risk of death from the covid vaccine?

    There isn't any maybe about it. The science exists, easy to find and just as clear as the nose on your face. You want to believe in conspiracy theories and fear mongering and all the science in the world couldn't change your mind.

    What is Faith?

    We seem to be on entirely different wave lengths here. Nothing you said here has anything to do with the point I was making. The point was that biblically speaking, the normal reaction that people have to being witness to a miracle is NOT faith in God but quite the reverse. The more obvious...

    Is there a risk of death from the covid vaccine?

    You're basically in denial. Repeating your position is not a rebuttal but then you aren't interested in being convinced anyway so believe what you want.

    Is there a risk of death from the covid vaccine?

    There is no such risk but I don't think they should be forced to get the shot either. At least not by the government. Has anyone seriously proposed such a policy? Anyone who knowingly spreads a disease is guilty of a crime and upon conviction of that crime should be made to pay eye for eye...

    Is there a risk of death from the covid vaccine?

    I don't think hardly anyone has a good understanding of just how small a number .00003 is. And yes, I typed that number correctly. I simply converted the percentage into a real number. .003% is the same as 3 100,000ths or 0.00003. So, for every 33,333.33 people who got the shot, 1 person died...

    What is Faith?

    That wasn't the point and I suspect you knew that. The point wasn't that it was unfair (it would have been) the point is that it doesn't make any sense. It's a contrivance at best. And it is this exact ability of yours to rationalize it that proves it was not any sort of divine intervention on...

    What does the term "human rights" mean? What rights do humans have and why? Don't misunderstand, I agree that humans have rights, I believe that those rights are innate and I believe in natural law, I'm simply pointing out that not everyone agrees with what those rights ought to be or why. Some...

    What is Faith?

    Her shots are NOT free, they're simply being paid for by someone else and probably without their direct knowledge or consent (i.e. unjust taxes). Why would your / her faith in God make one medication free but stop $33 short of free on the second? Is it not the same God dealing with the same...

    My name is Park, and I am a Christian looking for advice

    Do you do anything here other than whine? I wasn't slamming anything Mrs. Thin Skin! I simply stated facts. What I said is exactly correct. His take on Romans 9 is entirely wrong. The chapter doesn't have anything to do with Calvinist style predestination or as the opening post puts it, "the...

    My name is Park, and I am a Christian looking for advice

    What's complicated about it? Paul is explaining that God had cut off Israel and how He was justified in doing so and made reference to Old Testament passages to make his case. Paul DID NOT begin the chapter by talking about Israel being cut off then abruptly change the subject to...

    My name is Park, and I am a Christian looking for advice

    Greetings and welcome to TheologyOnline! I think I can prove that your understanding of Romans 9 is entirely wrong and that, in fact, you do not get your doctrine from Romans 9 at all but rather bring your doctrine to that text and interpret it through the lens of Calvinist dogma. The reality...

    The time has come...

    I actually called in advanced and found out right away that several stores, including Walmart, Chipotle, Home Depot and others, still have the sign outside but only actually REQUIRE their employees to wear a mask. There were some however (KFC, Taco Bell and a few others) that do require...

    The time has come...

    I love that! For the time being that may be actually better than not wearing one at all. That's very good. I think you and I are almost entirely in agreement. The major difference is that I'd skip the eggs before I'd ever put that mask on, if forced to make the choice. The store owner's right...

    Mass Killer bought his rifles legally.

    A southeastern Wisconsin man strangled his 14-year-old stepson with a legally purchased necktie in a minivan in a Walmart parking lot, telling investigators he wanted to get revenge on his wife and her relatives for interfering in his business. (Nov. 18) Surely it's time to start doing...

    If he thinks that, he's either stupid or a leftist woke mask Nazi. Business owners have the right to be stupid for sure. Whether they have the right to e anti-American is debatable but in either case they do not have the right to expect to exercise such a right without consequence. They do not...

    The time has come...

    I get it. I occasionally find situations where I have no viable option as well but we stand and fight the battle we can win and the enemy does the same. The fact is that the left has very nearly won and it's gotten to the point now where the exercising of our freedom puts our livelihood at risk...

    Of course you have the right but shirt and shoe requirements have mostly to do with keeping weirdos out of the store not fear based politics. Shirt and shoe requirements aren't about virtue signaling and political correctness while mask wearing policies are ONLY about that at this point.

    The time has come...

    My advice. Don't even keep the stupid mask in your pocket. They do not work anyway and chances are you've gotten vaccinated and don't need it at all anyhow. Do not do business with any company that forces you to wear the woke mask. At this point it can have nothing to do with anything related...
