I may be mistaken but weren't there marriage ceremonies in the NT times akin to what a marriage is now? The bride and bridegroom didn't live together before this ceremony which was considered the two being bound together. If common law marriage is acceptable what about common law divorce?

Was it any good? I know you're not of the reformed persuasion but White is a good author and has written many helpful books beneficial to the body.

That was said in the context of Greeks desiring to speak with Jesus. It was being said in regards to all nations, not literally all men.

I'm fairly certain Geisler was not a Calvinist. I believe he debated James White on the matter.

I can hear someone somewhere saying "judge not."

I'm fairly certain Lutherans hold to vicarious atonement - Catholics do not.

So you don't have any meaningful response?

The reformers didn't fail, the Roman Church refused to accept that they were/are in error - if they "failed" then I guess you should become Roman Catholic. How was Luther despicable? Yes, there is documentation, he was instrumental in making known widespread that salvation is by grace alone...

I have a question for any moderators. Why is a guy who goes around declaring anyone that doesn't believe what he believes to be unsaved, still have an account on the board? He has nothing valuable to contribute and his fallback is to accuse people of not believing the Bible and holding to a...

I guess it doesn't matter how many times those attempts are made, terrorist acts committed, threats made, it's only bad when Israel defends themselves.

My issue with Charlie wasn't his politics, it was his inconsistent application of his worldview to his politics. His politics may have been informed by his faith, but his approach to politics was seemingly to set aside this worldview in favor of a secular one - or maybe what he thought to be a...

1903?

Absolutely not, nor was the bombing of Dresden, or the other war crimes committed by allied soldiers.

Yes sir. 8mm 06 is what some of the vets did wildcatting. I think they even made some Mauser rifles into single shot shotguns.

I miss that guy.

The Catholic church lays claim to all the early church fathers. Have you actually read the early church fathers? I would say it doubtful, since you write Augustine off as the progenitor of Catholicism - which couldn't be further from the truth. I guess by your reasoning the church ceased to...
