Different people have different commitments to different beliefs. That's how. What you believe can affect how you translate something.

No. They don't. Also, You need to read the edit to my post. No argument. No, not "time" (singular). TIMES (plural)! "CHRONON" not "CHRONOS." False. Flatly. "Began, ensued, started, perpetuated" are all verbs. AIONION is NOT a verb. It has never BEEN a verb. It never WILL BE a verb...

The Bible says yes: The Lord is gracious and full of compassion, Slow to anger and great in mercy. The Lord is good to all, And His tender mercies are over all His works. - Psalm 145:8-9 http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Psalm145:8-9&version=NKJV For the grace of God that brings...

And I almost forgot... "let Us make":

I'll let these three screenshots speak for themselves. Verse: "In Our image": "and in Our likeness": Note that while "image" and "likeness" are singular, part of the words indicate a plurality in ownership. "Our," not "My." And your point is? So? At least for me, I believe that the...

Cognitive dissonance.

Motion. One is moving faster than the other. But it's not affecting time. It's affecting the clock. You could even place the two clocks at different altitudes with the amount of gravity being the same (the earth's mass isn't distributed evenly throughout, so some places have higher gravity...

My question is about your, the author's, beliefs. You did not address what will happen to those who do not believe, only atheists and believers, which are not the only two groups that exist.

The new earth WILL BE a heaven, a paradise, no? Jerusalem (tied to Israel) comes down upon the NEW Earth, not the current one, which is, as I'm sure you would agree, NOT a heaven. On the other hand, believers in the Body of Christ will reside in the New Heaven, not on the New Earth (not to say...

Cognitive dissonance.

Because the Jews are under different House rules (oikonomia) than the Body of Christ. Things that are different are not the same... Of course it's important. All of them are important, as Jesus said in Matthew 5:19. OIKONOMIA Romans 6:1

How about those who do not believe?

Which one?

Where there's life, there's hope.

Well for starters, just reading the verse immediately prior to verse 2, the issue is resolved. Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, To the pilgrims of the Dispersion in Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia, - 1 Peter 1:1...

You can't be an open theist because of your own error. Who cares about whether you're an open theist. What matters is whether you actually acknowledge what scripture says, and not presume it says something that it DOES NOT SAY, because of your a priori beliefs, AND not simply use a poor English...

Not "needs." "Concludes." John saw a vision, "in the Spirit." He didn't interact with the future. He interacted with the vision. Well, no. Jesus said: "Before Abraham was, I AM," saying that He was God before Abraham existed. It was a statement of His deity, not a statement about his...

Because it's not in the future that the point exists. It's the present. Indeed I am. Time flows into the past from the present. The future doesn't exist yet, never will. Never said he did. But He DOES exist in the present. <------------------------------------------------------*...

No, you did not. You answered a question about something that isn't in dispute, but not what I asked you. When does a man die spiritually, since he is not dead from the womb? It has nothing to do with whether I accept it, because "it" hasn't been provided yet, "it" being the answer to my...

No, you didn't answer the question. WHEN does a man die spiritually? Because man is not dead at birth, so he must be alive at least for a little bit after birth, no? "In Adam" is not "when." It's "where," it means "in the flesh."
