Great Topic and Post! Try examining what God's All-Knowing is — you may discover your answers there… Since He knows All — He can harden whom He will without any violation of justice or trust to them endowed with reason to think. Yes, He could place individuals in the scheme of time because He knows ...

Re: RE:
Amazing as it may seem, I actually agree with puritan lad here. Me too, I'm also suprisingly skeptical of NDEs and other such events. I think it's good to have a healthy dose of skepticism towards alot of so-called 'Christian' experiences because we can often be mislead into believing lies that can...

Let's use the logic of One to mean only One with the inability to divide in order to produce a whole: Zygote. I haven't done maths in a long time, but I do remember that if you divide , you don't end up with a whole . At conception when the human sperm and human egg meet they form a Zygote. If one ...

Thank you BW. The problem with your analogy is that it does not represent the trinity. In the trinity, God is not three parts making up a whole. Each of the three persons are God, yet there is one God You seemed to have missed the point I was making which was: a finger print from God within creatio...

In the same vein — The gospels, in your view, did God just give Jesus certain divine powers “dunamis”, which enabled him — a mere mortal though he was, to perform God like task of healing the sick, forgiving sins? Well yes - Jesus says this himself: Matthew 9: 6 But so that you may know11 that the...

I agree. I'm also open to different titles: Heaven, purgatory, or maybe both, which reconciles with Catholic doctrine as that is exactly what we believe. Some of us are very close to Jesus and God and go to heaven directly (like Mary and the saints). The rest of us are awaiting the resurrection. An...

I received an email from someone reading this forum. The individual asked me a question pertaining to the OT (Old Testament) and the afterlife. The person was afraid to post the question for fear of being made fun of but consented to my answering enquiry on the forum. Please do not feel that you can...

One failure we all have in regarding the Concept of Justice is separating these in singular linear fashion failing to examine the big picture holistically. For example, in the book of I John 4:8 the writer states “God is Love.” We examine the word love, dissect it and apply linear definitions to it...

Fortigurn, Please do not think me rude or trite on this matter but I would like to simply skip the scripture Judo and ask a simple question: Without any scripture — why do you believe that Jesus cannot be God and that the Trinity is not so? Because it is a logical contradiction. What is it about th...
