Re: Can God Tell Time?
Here is the answer friends, they were all correct in speaking that the day was coming soon, but it is a relative "soon" From the book of Peter: 3 Above all, you must understand that in the last days scoffers will come, scoffing and following their own evil desires. 4 They will say, “Where ...

Re: MISSING BOOKS
Pardon me if I seem uneducated in such manners. I was always taught ....... or I always assumed that the current revision of the Bible (authorized KJV) and all the books therein was all there was. Now lately it seems I've been asking tough questions of my mentors and brothers in the faith such as.....

Re: Atheist: "Do I take my child to church?"
Good evening everyone, I hope I'm posting in the correct thread. I'm an atheist in a relationship with a theist. We've been together a little over 2 years and have had serious conversations about marriage and how we would raise our future children. I was raised christian and "lost my faith&quo...

Re: Scientist In Fight With NASA Over Intelligent Design
Now if something has a function in nature, that means it came about because of a need to facilitate a purpose. If there is no intelligent design, then what deems the necessity of the function, or facilitates the purpose it serves? This is intellectual proof of intelligent design. 150+ razor precise ...

Re: Scientist In Fight With NASA Over Intelligent Design
First of all, science is not a court of law, nor does it take "evidence" to mean "somebody says they saw something a long time ago that isn't verifiable." If your only evidence for ID is "because the Bible says so," you're insane to think that it makes for legit scienc...

Re: Scientist In Fight With NASA Over Intelligent Design
Perhaps you could enlighten me as to who "witnessed" Intelligent design and why I've never heard of anybody witnessing miraculous creation of new animals in our lifetime...Your arguments are rather thin...If you wanted to write down an actual piece of "data" instead of just vagu...

Re: Raising the dead
Byblos, you have perfectly expressed my point. Those passages do in fact speak of the spiritual resurrection on the last day according to what Paul wrote in Corinthians and to what Christ promises us in his kingdom (which is not of this world). In Matthew 22 Jesus was telling the Sadducees that they...

Re: Scientist In Fight With NASA Over Intelligent Design
I think he could have a case, but it really has nothing to do with ID. Based on the article, his religious beliefs and how hard he pushed them on the office were bothersome to others. Depending on the nature of the "complaints of harassment" that are referenced in the article, the case co...

Re: Raising the dead
Seems to me it's better to take the stated facts and reasons in Scripture at face value when they're available and not try to overthink or rationalize by inference more than is presented. It's also OK to say, I don't know. I have an opinion. But in the end it's not something I have to worry about b...

Re: Raising the dead
Many people think that there is some kind of physical resurrection at the resurrection. There is not. Corinthians completely explains the spiritual body that we will have. Scripturaly we also will not have to wait for anything. If the human time frame perceives a wait, let me ask you; What does a d...

Re: An objective moral standard outside of God.
Is there one? No I guess I'm a little confused. If God is the source of morality, (God = what's Right) then If God said throw babies off of buildings that would be moral. Of course the natural response is "God wouldn't do that because it's wro-" but then that response points to a morality...

Re: An objective moral standard outside of God.
There were thousands of years of non-Christians who had never heard the word of God who got by just fine without eating babies or murdering the innocent. The vast majority of animal species on Earth outside of humans (none of which are capable of having a Godly objective moral standard) do not part...

Re: Video defending the pre trib rapture
I like how he uses scripture, however the vid doesn't show him using any scripture to back up that we will be taken up prior to tribulation. The bible doesn't back up the conjecture used to announce this teaching either. Pre trib stances are based almost solely on the fact that believers will not su...
