Sounds like new age heresy.

There are gun owners in California?

No, Beloved57, it does not. You are presupposing your beliefs into the text. It means that where the Jews had hardened their hearts against the gospel, the Gentiles were more disposed to listen. Nope, nowhere is that stated in the verse. You're ignoring the context of the verse in order...

You're putting the cart before the horse, and twisting scripture to fit your narrative. Here's what scripture ACTUALLY says: that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.For with the heart one believes...

Now lets see the full chart.

Congrats @Clete! You are awarded my post of the day! REMINDER: This is not a discussion thread. This thread is only for congratulating the member for making an outstanding post. If you want to discuss this post, do so on the thread it was posted in originally.

Another straw man. No one is making that argument.

Except that it IS true, because Jesus, a man, IS IN FACT GOD.

Just answer the question, Hawkins. I even made it easy and posted the answer above! But I ask because I want to hear your reasoning. 1) Is something (like humility) good because God recognizes it as good? Or, 2) Is something good because God commands that it is good (as Socrates put it, because...

Missing the point. The fact of the matter is that a man, Jesus Christ, is God. Straw man and red herring. Focus, Mark.

Wrong. And your answer leads to moral relativism. The above is Euthyphro's Dilemma (as presented to the Christian) Here is the correct answer: Is something good because God commands it so (i.e., because He decides that a certain trait, like honesty, will be good rather than bad)? No...

There's a difference between actions that are good, even by evil people, and a "being" that is good. What Jesus said was correct, and what Clete said was correct. There is only one [being] who is good, that's God. And yet, even evil people can do good things, as Clete described above.

Yes it does. Jesus became "a man." Jesus is God. Therefore, "a man" is God. You're trying to have it both ways, Marke, and it's not going to work. A = A. A != !A Jesus, a man, is God. Therefore, a man is God. See Clete's post addressing this above. Supra. Saying it doesn't make...

That's not even what the verse says! All you have to do is READ THE VERSE WITHOUT YOUR CALVINIST GLASSES ON! Your premise is wrong, and therefore your conclusion is invalid, and your bias causes you to believe scripture says what you assume, without thinking for yourself. Justification is...

God the Son, Jesus, who is God, became a man. God = a Man. The Man, Christ Jesus, is God. A Man = God. Yes, that checks out. No, Mark, it's not. A = B, therefore B = A. The Man, Jesus, IS IN FACT GOD!

1) Is something (like humility) good because God recognizes it as good? Or, 2) Is something good because God commands that it is good (as Socrates put it, because God loves it)?

What I said is COMPLETELY related! You: "What God gives its received because God gives it." Scripture: Jesus is the Light, who was given by the Father to the World, and the world rejected Him who the Father gave!: Exactly the OPPOSITE of what you say!

Still waiting for you to answer my question, B57.

No. It's not.
