Why do I keep giving this fool my time?!! Nothing anyone ever says penetrates. He's not responding, he's just repeating himself and pretending not to understand that points we are making. I'm done wasting my time chasing this jerk around in circles. He's a liar anyway. Who cares what he thinks...

Bull. You didn't answer because you knew the implications of the answer. No, David. IT WAS NOT RHETORICAL!!!! Being righteous is not a work of the flesh, following the law IS!!!

Since you seem to like dictionaries... Impunity: Exemption from punishment, penalty, or harm. Romans 5:8 But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. 1 Corinthians 5:7 Therefore purge out the old leaven, that you may be a new lump...

I don't need the dictionary, Dave. I wanted the answer. It wasn't a mistake. I wanted the answer. There is no question there so I don't understand what you are asking me to answer but I would say that Romans 8 is precisely the passage of scripture which you are here advocating against! Perhaps...

It flat out was NOT rhetorical! You made a point about how we still sin in a discussion about whether we should follow the Ten Commandments. The fact that Adam sinned centuries before anyone ever heard of the Ten Commandments, is proof that the two points are not mutually exclusive. That is to...

You are in unresponsive mode, Dave. Conversations are supposed to be two way responsive interactions, not repeated opportunity to simply put forward your doctrine and ignore everything anyone says to you in response. PLEASE answer the question... Did Adam sin? It isn't a trick question. It's...

There is no doubt - it is not disputed - that Jesus and the Twelve taught faith plus works. That is just reading the bible, not a book about Mid-Acts Dispensationalism. HA! No, Calvinism is fundamentally incompatible with any form of Dispensationalism. They are literally on opposite ends of...

It's simply stunning to me how people can read a passage that says one thing and think it means it's opposite! Let me ask you a question..... The Law was given through Moses, some 2500 years after Adam died. Did Adam ever sin?

Then your abstinence from murder will profit you nothing. Better! No, they are not the same! The law has a ministry of death. The right thing leads to life. The law kills, Dave. It is the Spirit (capital S) that gives life. They couldn't be more different. There is one and only one other...

I know what you're asking. The answer is, NO! No we absolutely should NOT. It would be better for the Christian to forget that they exist. You are ignoring the context and he never once said that we ought to follow the Ten Commandments. I'm curious to see how long it will go before you catch...

No, certainly not. No Christian should place themselves under the law, including the Ten Commandments or any portion of them.

How I wish this were the truth. It's all water that went under the bridge many years ago and which I am no longer upset about in the least, but saying that you never said that you believed in flat Earth is just not accurate. I begged you to see reason all those years ago. I did so repeatedly to...

You and I would get along! :cool:

I have no problem with historical curiosities but this particular theory is on much shakier ground than it think you're willing to see at the moment. The paper's author stating, “we have added the assumption that the sages… were trying to make each patriarch the ruler of a zodiac sign”, is the...

Paul was not commanding his followers to perform the rituals of the Jewish Passover feast. That would contradict his entire ministry. To be clear, my comments were confined to the rituals of Passover, not the symbolism of it. We who are in Christ partake of the substance all day every day. In...

I think Bullinger makes a good argument and that the preponderance of the evidence is heavily on the side of his thesis being true. Not all truth has to come out of the bible but there is no such actual thing as a contradiction. The bible is truth and so any truth claim, particularly a...

Anyone can say anything. Saying it doesn't make it so. Further, I don't think your claim here is accurate. There is tons of substantive difference between post and premillennial doctrine that has dramatic doctrinal implications. Indeed, the two are born out of fundamentally different...

No, I do not agree. That is, I don't agree with what you seem to mean. The bible is fundamentally theological. Every single syllable of it is, by definition, theological. Insignificant ones that do not effect anything at all. I do not dispute that there may be some very minor details that have...

Well, leaving the doctrinal and hermaneutical difficulties of this theory to the side, I don't think this theory can be made to work in any case. The ages in Genesis 5 and 11 (e.g., Adam 130, Seth 105, etc.) are irregular numbers. That is to say that they don't follow any regular pattern where...

You understand that doing what you claim to have done here is against your own doctrine, right? I genuinely cannot fathom how it is possible for a person to be so internally conflicted that such a flagrant contradiction can exist within their mind while being so invisible to them that they are...
