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...

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...

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.

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...

“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...

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...

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...

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...

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

21 excluding the “g” and 23 including the “g”.

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

Personally, I look at the context ... Corinth was the church that had "jumped the shark". So Paul was adressing a church where women were exercising their freedom in Christ to stand up in the middle of a service where someone that KNEW something was talking, and not allow their ignorance on...

True, yet this is NOT how you chose to refute BFs error is it? Or my challenge to your position: YOU chose to counter "We are 100% saved before believing" with "We get the Spirit (that BF claims allows belief) after we believe." Within the narrow confines of "belief and Spirit" I accurately...

Are all your women silent in church? [Just testing consistency of hermeneutics.] :)

Have you ever noticed the diversity of TRANSLATIONS of the verses in Isaiah 53? Such things are critically important to people like me that know NOTHING significant of Greek or Hebrew grammar and must trust the translations for subtlety of meaning (thus we look to many translations for critical...

Just for the record, it was more of a commentary on the entire exchange ... [paraphrasing the arguments behind your pages of repeated exchanges] ... BF: We are 100% saved before believing because 'God gives faith as a gift'. ... SH: The Holy Spirit sits quietly on the sidelines until we are...

30 Common Logical Fallacies–A Study Starter 11.False Dilemma Also sometimes referred to as a “false dichotomy,” this is a fallacy in which one incorrectly places limitations on one’s possible options in a given scenario. This fallacy rests on the false premise that one is faced with a binary...

Are these true “denominations” or are they simple “associations”? How are they different from a Baptist Church (not a denomination) being part of the SBC?

Lutherans have the Book of Concord and the various Synods. Methodists have SOMETHING (because the local congregation split from the powers that be over some liberal issue and had to leave the church building that belonged to the POWERS THAT BE). Anglicans have a near “Catholic” hierarchy. I am...

Baptists are diverse because they are sort of an "anti-demnomination" (the opposite of a denomination). The central idea of a "denomination" is Everyone believes what the CENTRAL AUTHORITY believes [Rome, Lutheran Synod, Anglican Bishop ... whatever]. Baptists hold that the only "hierarchy" is...
