Re: Slavery in the Bible
Outlaw, while you think you are being clever, linking articles by people who are largely ignorant of what God's word says about slavery, and what slavery was IN ANCIENT ISRAEL - which stood in enormous contrast to that of the heathen nations around them - then go get a copy of this book: http://www...

Re: What would have happened had Adam never sinned?
To answer the original question, there would be no such thing as Christianity. There would be no need for jesus. Is anyone picking up the pattern here? We have a god that could of created things anyway it wanted a god that can't tolerate sin but yet it creates a system where sin is inevitable, it's ...

Slavery in the Bible
Is the bible a good moral guide? Was god/jesus ok with slavery? Some light reading with regards to slavery in the bible. http://www.patheos.com/blogs/crossexamined/2012/06/old-testament-slavery-not-so-bad/ http://www.religioustolerance.org/imm_bibl.htm http://www.huffingtonpost.com/greg-carey/slaver...

Re: Young Earth Creationism believer is my teacher in Church
And you think we are foolish for believing in the bible, yet you take what this bloke says as gospel??? You do realise don't you that the bible does not say that men have one less rib, it says God used one of Adams ribs to create Eve. Nowhere does it say that therefore men for centuries to come wou...

Re: Young Earth Creationism believer is my teacher in Church
Um this might sound crazy but if you want to know about the age of the earth the bible probably isn't the best place to look. If it can't tell you when Jesus was born or died and if it tells you men have one less rib than women then I wouldn't be relying on it knowing the age of the earth. You migh...

Re: Who made the rule that death is the punishment for sin?
Maybe I missed something... Yes, you missed something. You missed what the Bible says about atheists: -Atheists have a hatred of God, Ro 8:7, Col 1:21, James 4:4. Now, ask yourself, is a man with hatred likely to listen to reasoned answers to his questions? -Atheists are too blind to see, too sinfu...

I am patient and optimistic with people especially concerning faith. What I do not like, which is why I dis...

Re: Who made the rule that death is the punishment for sin?
Maybe I missed something, but why do the admins and mods here seem to get angry at questions posed and/or arguments for disbelief and right away the ban button gets ready to be pushed? I don't get it., why are we as Christians so intolerant? It is not as if outlaw is cussing us out., the man seeks ...
