I said that in reference to you believing Mary was the mother of the Son of God. No one would say that without some sort of implication of Mary having power with God. What is your reason for associating the deity part of Christ with Mary?

But Walter, Christ was conceived by the Holy Spirit, what part of His deity did Mary have anything to do with? She is blessed of all women, I agree, but she has no more power with God than any other person. Her last recorded words in Scripture are telling! She said, "whatever He (Christ) says...

Yes, you certainly will have denials of that, BF, lots of them! The purpose of the hearing of the Gospel is to break through the depravity of man with the truth of Jesus Christ, enabling him to believe and be saved, or reject it. You've got it backwards, my friend!

It's my opinion they deserve the best that can be produced. I hope the fact that they are making changes is a positive one for those in uniform.

I'm glad you did, Cathode! I would like to hear your general thoughts on the Popes statement.

That is an everyday thing for me. To give you a glimpse of what it has become for me, let me tell you about Christmas '23. My Mom passed away in Feb. '23, Dad has been gone since "11, so my sister an I met at the old home place that Christmas. She was standing over by the china cabinet...

That doesn't surprise me, there have been several things in the past 2 years I've been reminded of and have no memory of it.

I haven't seen a P-38 since the 70's and don't remember what a P-51 was.

The Scripture says, "you were bought with a price." I am bought a paid for by the Blood of Jesus Christ by grace through faith. He took my sin debt from me and took it upon Himself, "the just for the unjust." That is what God demanded of Christ to set me free. I know we disagree that when...

Yes, it would.

Didn't have MRE's when I was beatin' the bush. I was issued a P-38.

Do you see Christ being punished for us on the Cross, "the just for the unjust?" "While we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." "He has made Him to be sin for us, who knew no sin, that we might be made the righteousness of God in Him."

I would like some input from @Cathode. That would be interesting, I thiink.

The Holy Spirit refers to the great apostle Paul as the master Church builder. If Paul gives us no hint of a woman having the qualifications to be a pastor, who is the man who says a woman does have that qualification?

I don't know why you want me to explain, it will make no difference at all! In His foreknowledge He knew the pagans in the Promised Land would never believe in Him, just as He knew Pharaoh would never believe. The Lord destroyed them, all of them in the OT that stood in the way of Israel...

Truth to your interpretation. Most Christians don't see it your way. Most are convinced Christ is the satisfaction for the sins of the whole world, and He desires all men every where to repent. It's the Calvinists that deny it, along with many other things.

I know you're respectful and I don't take it that way from you. Almost everything written in Scripture is seen completely different between the Calvinist and anyone else. They have their own theory of what the Scripture says, and it's by far in the minority of Christianity. Trying to reason...

Just as with Z I totally disagree. We are set on what we believe the Scripture teaches and continuing to argue is senseless.

Well now, we certainly disagree, but arguing will accomplish nothing just make the situation worse.

Christ explains some of the things that will take place, it's the the generation of Jews who are alive at the time the great tribulations begins. It's Israel that takes the full force of the great tribulation.
