Evidence for God from Science

In his book, "The Case for the Real Jesus," Lee Strobel interviewed Daniel B. Wallace, PhD, a professor at Dallas Theological Seminary and one of the world's leading scholars in ancient Greek and textual criticism, about Revelation 13:18's reference to the Mark of the Beast as being "...

Doctrine, smoctrine! No, it is not the DOCTRINE of the Trinity one must believe in to be saved. But saving faith comes from and must be in GOD . And so if someone doesn't believe that Jesus is GOD, then they have a faith in a counterfeit Jesus, and thus they do also do not believe that He is Who He ...

I recently had an interesting experience with the father of a long-time friend. This man believed in Jesus, that He was the Son of God, but somehow didn't believe that Jesus was also God. So he rejected the Trinity. This man was passionate for scripture, but selectively so. Also, he had a Christian ...

Was in Toronto one summer (late 1980s), hoping to escape the furnace of the Southern summer. Flew up and hit a freak heat wave - hit 100 degrees in Toronto. Those Canadians thought they were dying - actually, I think a few actually WERE. A 100-degree day is just another walk in the park around my ne...

FYI, I've has less trouble with mosquitos here, than when I lived in Massachusetts.

That's because in TAXachusetts, there's a more relentless pest (politicians)taking a bit out of you. I'm up there a lot, as my wife's family is all across the Northeast.

Precisely why I moved to Florida.

Yes, Rick, and also where the State Bird is the mosquito!

Rick, as for skiing on ice - that's basically what I learned to ski on, in the resorts of the NC mountains. Yes, they do get nice snow there, but they often have daytime temps which warm up enough to make the surface soft, and so when the temp plunges in late afternoon and overnight, the early morni...

Vermont is indeed one of the most beautiful places in the U.S. Especially the Green Mountains area. Have spent some nice summers traveling there and also wonderful days, during the winter, skiing at Killington. Actually had my first "experience" at skiing chest-deep snow there. Killington ...

Yep, I'm guessing Vermont has about as many naked hippies as does CA. Of course, they have a lot more hair on their backs up VT way.

After further review, you are hereby prohibited from posting anymore about politics, since you voted for good ole Jimmy. I knew confessing that would cause me grief, but not near as much as having actually done it. :esurprised: But, at the time, Carter appealed to my youth, just as did Obama to the...

Well, in my first presidential election, I voted for JC - which shows you how political savvy I was at 19. And I STILL can't believe I did that, even young and dumb as I was.

Until either party produces a genuine conservative(fiscally and morally) candidate, I'm afraid I won't be voting.

Rick, please name just ONE presidential candidate, over the last 50 years, that you WOULD have voted for.

Rick, while strongly disagreeing with you, I do respect what you are saying. And I have no reason to believe that you are not being sincere. However, you and I - and everyone, everyday - must make decisions based upon imperfect choices. And we do so, as they are the only choices we have been provide...

The candidate has to 1) have a chance to win in my mind. As it is GOD Who puts people in office, then I'd say you should quit excessive worry over whether or not a candidate can win. And I believe God gives us leaders that reflect our collective personal values. But even in the current election, fo...

1992?!!! Rick, please don't tell me that you haven't seen enough of a contrast between candidates in the elections since 1992 to not vote? I would find that extremely hard to believe.
