So, I'll take that as a, "No, I don't ever answer questions directly." Here's a question that you will answer directly and without qualification before I'd ever be willing to pay any attention to you whatsoever.... Is Jesus Christ THE God?

I've done that repeatedly already and you act like I'm changing the subject, imply that the concept I'm talking about is absent from your bible and then cite the very concept that I'm trying to tell you that your ignoring and then implying that RightDivider and I are the one's who aren't...

You seem to be woefully out of practice. You don't seem to understand how to have a rational discussion! You do understand that this entire discussion is still here and available for everyone to see, right? See posts 222 and 223

So, it just comes naturally then. I mean, are you really that unaware of your own words?

Jesus is God.

So, do you ever actually answer direct questions?

I think I agree but it depends on your intent. If you are here speaking of salvation as the "win" then you've turned Paul's race analogy into a way of turning his entire ministry upside down and backward. Paul was not teaching legalism. Your salvation does NOT depend on how well you run in a...

Are you TRYING to make yourself look like a clown? 🤡

I'm simply saying what I've said all along. You simply don't get to ignore the context of a passage and expect to understand it correctly. The context has direct bearing on the meaning and application of any passage. That's true throughout all of language. Then what were you suggesting, Chrys...

All of them have the concept though. All of them - including the original! The original Greek word is ὀρθοτομέω. Literally is mean to cut straight or to cut correctly. It is an idiomatic expression that mean to make a correct distinction or to handle properly. The words may be different but...

Because you're saying things about scripture that are false. I don't just state that they are false though, I make the argument. Theology isn't about personal opinions. At least that's true the vast majority of the time. Most Christian have no concept at all of building their doctrine, whether...

Well, it is those who have sinned who are spiritually dead, right? Christ's atonement is the cure for a preexisting condition not the catalyst for creating one. That is, perhaps, a semantic point, depending on what your intent was, but it's a point worth making nonetheless.

If you fail to rightly divide, you'll be looking for fulfilled prophecies where they definitely do not exist. You are a text book example of exact that. It is NOT POSSIBLE for a syllable of John's prophecies to have been fulfilled - period.

The Psalmist wasn't being literal. It's hyperbole, which is how I took your comment, by the way. There is no such thing as a baby born evil, as in a screeching newborn baby who already hates God before he's ever suckled from his mother's breast.

The topic of the thread was my entire point! I wasn't changing the subject! Whether one is discussing eschatology or soteriology or any other aspect of doctrine, the issue can only be rightly discussed dispensationally. That's why I said what I said. The errors that compound one upon another...

Which AI gave you that response? Here's what I got when I asked GPT 5.1 Explain ἀνάθεμα” (anathema) as used by Paul in Galatians. BTW: I have it set up to give me a short answer first because it tends to over answer things.

I don't get it. I mean, I really just do not understand that kind of broken minded lunacy. How does a mind that is that dysfunctional keep a person's heart beating and lungs pumping?

"weasel his way out" That's exactly the perfect phrase for what he's doing. He doesn't care whether his doctrine is true or not. He doesn't even care whether it makes any sense. He just believes it and that's that.

Blindness. I don't care what "most people" do or don't do. "Most people" can be wrong. You have two and only two choices. 1. Paul's ministry and gospel was unique and received by direct divine revelation from the risen Jesus Christ. or... 2. Paul was a heretic and his letters aught not ever...

Only what Paul wrote applies directly to the Body of Christ. That does not mean the rest of the Bible has no purpose. It simply means the audience must be respected. You already do this without thinking. When you read Deuteronomy, you do not take what you've read as cause to avoid pepperoni...
