Still trying to conflate two different things. The New Covenant was for Israel for the end times. Not the Body of Christ today. We were talking about criminal justice LONG before you jumped in and made an OFF TOPIC post about God's response to sin.

Exactly my point. There's not a drop of water in the baptism of the Holy Spirit. IOW... The Holy Spirit is what we are being baptised into, not water.

It's referring to the ONE baptism of the Holy Spirit. As opposed to the MANY baptisms Israel had.

Liar. I have given you my endorsement of The Plot. What I have not done and refuse to do, is put it on the same level as scripture, or claim that it is somehow authoritative. That would be idolatry. If it's wrong, then demonstrate it. But you won't even read it, so how could you? You...

What's your point? The land belongs to God. We just live on it. The land where all those Balestinians live was given by God to the House of Israel to begin with. It belongs to them. P.S. Yes, the "B" in "Balestinians" was intentional.

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

Then why did you jump into the middle of a conversation ABOUT how modern governments should treat criminals today with a comment on how God did not punish David according to the law? Perhaps you can answer my question: Tambora, to make things clear here, please answer the following question...

I'm reminded of Paul in Acts 17: Now when they had passed through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where there was a synagogue of the Jews. Then Paul, as his custom was, went in to them, and for three Sabbaths reasoned with them from the Scriptures, explaining and...

I recently watched another Open Theist, Realityisnotoptional (Chris Fischer) do a partial response to the above video, here: I enjoyed his breakdown, but felt there was a lot left on the table that needed to be addressed, and since I'm not much of a talker, but I can type up a mean post on a...

Forget me for a moment. If there was a compelling argument that was made by ANYONE that your position is wrong, would you be willing to change your position? This is asking you if you're willing to be intellectually honest enough to admit when you're wrong. Maybe you should consider why I'm...

No, that was Hoping. He's gone now.

It's your job to present a compelling argument, whether someone changes their mind or not. Why are you even here on TOL, again? The Holy Spirit won't override someone's will. Weren't you just going on about how Calvinism is unjust? I'm not going to abandon my position unless and until you...

I don't care. ALL I care about is the truth, and what the Bible says. If you cannot make a valid argument against my position, you will not change my beliefs. Yawn.

Then you should already be aware that the common belief is that there are seven dispensations, and that there are different "house rules" (oikonomia) for each dispensation. The rules for the dispensation of conscience was that there was no law on the earth, that men did according to their own...

If I were making an argument from silence, my argument would be "because there is no scripture saying there was a law in the period between the fall and the leaving of the Ark, therefore there was no law." But that's not the argument I'm making. I'm saying, "because God prohibited the death...

I was referring to your comment regarding how we should treat criminals today. Please do try to follow the conversation. Tambora, to make things clear here, please answer the following question: Do you believe that we (that is, modern human governments; I'm not talking about the Body of...

No, I'm not arguing from silence. Did you miss where I quoted Genesis 4? How God forbade the killing of Cain in punishment for his killing of his brother Abel? How Lamech said that He repaid the man who injured him "seventy-sevenfold" by killing him in retaliation? Here it is again: Now Cain...

What?

Why?
