Evidence for God from Science

The last church I attended was an Assembly of God church here in Illinois. tounges weren't outwardly a big issue and i rarely ever heard anyone doing this. when i did, it was usually a series of repeated sylables like " lalalala, dededede tatatata etetet" or someone trying to say somethin...

hi Tpatt :) I see. that does make more sense as I know Luther was brought up Catholic, everyone pretty much was at that time, and he was trying to reform a church that had been stuck in its ways for nearly 13 centuries. The reason i did this little study was because the friend i mentioned was totall...

I'm not sure this really belongs in abberant christianity, but i recently started a study on the Lutheran church for a friend and found some things that just don't add up to me. Most of my info comes from a modern English trasnlation of the small catechism written by Martin Luther himself. All doctr...

its been a long time since ive posted here. I'm glad to see some folks i recognize. anyway I've always understood that it was the early Catholic church that formed and perpetuated the idea of a flat earth, as well as the earth being the center of the universe and all things revolving around it. I al...

LOL BW. it sounds like one of those "when pigs fly" statements. I would never have thought I'd see something like that in the Bible. Who was saying that? what was going on at the time?

secretfire6, Sorry...I'm still new here and maybe my computer is slow or I clicked on the wrong thing but I was not replying to your post. y#-o Actually, I don't disagree with you. About the days: My thinking is that a timeless God can see things from a timeless perspective and can show us the vide...

We believe and it is evident from reading the bible that the God of creation is a God of order and not chaos. Therefore His account of creation in Genesis should be ordered and not confused as your idea suggests. If the genesis "days" are literal 24 hour periods, then why "call"...

sorry i never got back to finish my study/debate, but kmr nailed it better and more efficient than i could. I don't think ive ever truly been atheist, but i went through a time when i was just all about science and logic and very anti religion. where im at now is seeing that the sciences, logic, rea...

2 reasons it isn't unquestionable and in-your-face factual. first, God wont overthrow our free will to choose him and return to his ways. He wants us to turn back to him, not have to lasso us and drag us back kicking and screaming. Second, If we honestly want to know the truth, we will seek it out a...

or it could be a reference to those who "pray in tongues" as a sign of salvation and believe they have some special relationship with God that others don't. That would be heresy. salvation isn't about what you say or do or don't say and don't do. It's about what's in your heart and if you ...

2 Corinthians 4:4 "The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God. ""? Ok, it sounds like you're not getting the point. The JWs have their own Bible, which has an altered verse ...

right, agreed and understanding that they all exist simultaneuosly is the last piece. I just read some more from the parent website of this forum and its just continuing to open my eyes to how badly our english Bibles are iterpreted and translated. I praise God for bringing people like those who mad...

hey Paul. thanks for the info and yeah its kinda what i was trying to say..don't know if it came across right though. I have not yet found the NWT to be purposely tweaked or changed to fit a doctrine as I have found other Bibles to be and i have found that their explainations for the translations th...

i studied part of Galations for the first time about 2 weeks ago. I didnt read the whole thing, but did read the verses in question here and i instantly could tell Paul was defending himself from accusations that he had lied to his congregation. I could also tell that the accusations came from somwh...
