Now if they'd just ban all the porn accounts on Twitter...

Can you present any evidence to the contrary? Which kingdom? That's the overarching Kingdom of God. The Kingdom of Israel is a kingdom of it's own, that falls under the umbrella of the Kingdom of God.

False. It's more Christian than the churchianity (hi @Right Divider!) that most people adhere to these days. Saying it doesn't make it so. Saying it doesn't make it so. It's apathy to not care about whether someone is sinning. Good. Because you're not even talking about the same...

Since Clete already addressed this, I'll just say again that there is no evidence that indicates that he should be, only evidence that Matthias took over Judas's office, and in agreement with Clete, the only reason to think Paul was the twelfth is to satisfy the needs of one's doctrines. Clete...

Which just means that we've passed the litmus test for accurately preaching Paul's gospel, because He was accused of teaching the same thing. You prefer lies. Fix your post. As Derf said, you've made it extremely difficult for anyone to respond to it. Because the Bible shows that they...

As I alluded to in one of my posts above, I've not been entirely sure on a closely related issue, that being when God stopped accepting people into the New Covenant. Maybe you know?

Yawn. Saying it doesn't make it so. Appeal to popularity. Try an actual argument. As I said to Anna, apathy is a form of hatred, and it's a sin. If you hate your neighbor, you let them continue to harm themselves. If you love your neighbor, you warn them that what they're doing is...

This is what happens when you make broad accusations. I think you're nit-picking. Saying it doesn't make it so. The only authority is the Bible. But for non-authoritative guides, the book I have now mentioned twice, along with Bob Enyart's The Plot (the 2nd Edition will be available soon...

As mentioned previously, Things That Differ: The Fundamentals of Dispensationalism by C. R. Stam is an excellent place to start.

Will Duffy preached a series related to this very topic:

I don't really recommend learning what Mid-Acts Dispensationalists believe from a Catholic, but rather from MADs themselves. Supra, as per my previous post. Except that that's what it shows, whether they went outside of Jerusalem or not. Not that the Bible is wrong, just that such missions...

Liar. I remember the very discussion you and I were having a while back where I acknowledged that some of the Twelve had gone on mission trips to other parts of the world, and that I specifically pointed out that even though they did go, the Bible mentions it hardly at all, and for a reason. It...

No worries! Good! Acts 2 dispensationalism. Not good. Also consider Things That Differ: The Fundamentals of Dispensationalism by Cornelius R. Stam. Excellent! Consider this: God went to a gentile, and out of the gentiles, separated for Himself a man whose descendants would...

What you said completely dismissed literally everything I had just said. What are you talking about? I asked you first. Ok. You'd think that if they were divvying up the world, the majority of it would go to the Twelve, and Paul would get a small portion to go to. But the complete...

As if that means anything at all other than "but I'm right and just going to ignore everything you just said." Why do you assume I am? What if you're not paying enough attention to the Scripture? What I'm the Berean, and you're just you're typical "random Bible verse in the morning" kind of...

Except when it's among only women...

@Derf have you even considered the possibility that you're letting your doctrine interpret scripture, rather than letting scripture inform/mold your doctrine? Because stuff like this: ...requires some pretty serious cognitive dissonance to be able to continue to insist that scripture doesn't...

Not what I said. Please pay attention. And then later, Judas killed himself, and so his office was empty. Thus, in Acts 1, almost immediately after Jesus' ascension, they chose someone to fill that role. You'd think if Jesus didn't want Matthias as the one to fill the role, He would have made...

No one should be putting women in the pulpit to begin with. As you said, no church should have to change their leadership because a few members dislike their gender or race.

Begging the question. Homosexuals do not have the right to be homosexual. No, that's the government's job. I have an obligation to judge with righteous judgement. Prejudism IS discrimination, Me personally, no, but the Government does. Fair. I promote and advocate for the government...
