    Why Didn't God Give Scriptures To The Nations During The First 4 Millennium Of Human History

    Actually, it did ... ... you simply rejected my answer (which is your right). 1. face to face verbal communication. 2. written rules for men to follow. 3. a living example to draw men to himself. God revealed progressively stronger "medicine" to prove that nothing less than CHRIST nailed to...

    Catholic Apologist claims Catholics and Muslims worship

    "And there is salvation in no one else; for there is no other name under heaven that has been given among mankind by which we must be saved." - Acts 4:12 [NASB] … it is either TRUE or it is NOT TRUE.

    Catholic Apologist claims Catholics and Muslims worship

    … and whether what they offer to THE ONLY GOD is indeed “worship”. When an ancient Israelite sacrificed their child to the fires of Molech, was that “worship” to the one True God? There is only one God and the child was an act of worship. Likewise, when a devout Muslim embraces the command to...

    Catholic Apologist claims Catholics and Muslims worship

    Joe is being a little dishonest. If I say “No, Christians and Muslims do not worship the same God.” … then that would suggest that Christians and Muslims worship DIFFERENT Gods. Are there really multiple Gods? No, there is only one God (supreme creator). So, when a Muslim or Hindu...

    Why Didn't God Give Scriptures To The Nations During The First 4 Millennium Of Human History

    The early part of Genesis, which is the history of what God DID DO during that time period, is a story of the offer of a RELATIONSHIP between God and men (talking face to face and built on trust). The period of the LAW (starting with Moses) is the story of an offer of RULES to guide men to God...

    DOD Fires Female flag officer

    That is a strange title given the breath of scope of those articles. There are a lot of positions shuffled including a transfer to Pentagon and the forced retirement of an admiral. There were even men fired and women that historically would have been forced to retire getting special...

    Whats up with Dave Ramsey?

    Yes. It is for a court and jury to decide if the case has merit. You can sue Dave Ramsey for the Russian invasion of Ukraine. It is YOUR burden to prove that he is responsible, but you have a right to claim that he is responsible and state your case in court.

    Whats up with Dave Ramsey?

    According to the articles on the first few posts, Dave Ramsey endorsed a company that advertised it could get them out of their timeshares, they gave thousands of dollars to this company based on Ramsey’s endorsement, the company was fined for fraud and went bankrupt, and Dave Ramsey continued...

    Whats up with Dave Ramsey?

    “There Is No Such Thing As A Free Lunch” (somebody likely paid). AI Overview (so use with caution and verify the facts if it is important to you, I merely present as a point of reference to support that my empirical experience was different from that of ‘your church’) Dave Ramsey's Financial...

    Whats up with Dave Ramsey?

    Dave is well paid for his “ministry” for God. As a Baptist, we oppose Church and State climbing in bed together because of the risk of corrupting both. As Christians, we were warned that no man can serve both God and money. The fact that every time I hear Dave speak, he is offering me a chance...

    Our primary evidence of our risen Christ.

    How would one explain the conversion of Saul (setting aside the miraculous account) if Jesus was just a man and had not risen? What would compel a high official to go from zealously crushing a “heresy” to abandoning his lifestyle, position and faith in order to become an evangelical proponent...

    Latest U.S. National Debt Amount

    A balanced budget is easily within reach, we just need to either: 1. reduce Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid and Veterans benefits by 50% or 2. reduce everything else (like Defense and Highway spending) to ZERO. Then spending and revenue will balance. So, who is volunteering to have their...

    What are your thoughts on Islam ?

    2,4,5 … 10 would be nice, but I think that is more in God’s hands than ours (His will be done).

    May A Woman Pastor?

    I can demonstrate it by a “preponderance of the evidence” if required to do so, however … What “Law” forbids a woman to speak?
