I must say that this definition of immutability fails to account for the fact God is three persona, one substance. Systematic theology teaches that God's substance is immutable, and as these scriptures indicate that is very true. However, does God have emotions? That is the classic way of...

I like your explanation. This is one of enumerable passages in the bible that line up with the fact God desires that none perish.

I couldn't believe this. I saw this on Youtube after I had asked an International House of Prayer Kansas City (IHOPKC) missionary named Josh MacDonald to take it down. After this incident where they convinced me my illnesses were cured, I was told by Josh MacDonald to go to my doctors and...

I actually agree that I should not make much of using logic. The first two points are more a conclusion to be further researched than solid points. That said, there are some points Iconoclast used that need themselves to be proven form the bible instead of given as logical presuppositions...

This goes to a very basic question: Is God still purposing things after the creation? I believe you have a wealth of verses on this Derf. Could you share them again?

I figured you might like this old research of mine. The bible says the following please God: Singing praise to God (Psalm 135:3 and 147:1) The words of our mouth and the meditation of our heart should be aimed to please Him (Psalm 19:14) Those that fear Him (Psalm 147:10-11) Those that hope...

Sir, your points are not logically correct, given my arguments. You say He is bound by His omniscience. That feeds right into my argument. You say He knows all His works, but again you are arguing God's omniscience bounds Him. Your point about God's freedom not being diminished by any of this is...

5. God has elected some people to eternal life. However, not all those who will become a Believer were chosen from eternity. Here is scripture to show it, 2 God has not rejected His people whom He foreknew. Or do you not know what the Scripture says in the passage about Elijah, how he pleads...

I assert with confidence that, 1. God's omniscience allows Him to be the most free and most creative Being, omniscience in no way reduces His transcendence -- Does the LORD have freedom as the greatest creative Being? I ask because does God have to decide from eternity past all He wills to do...

It seems, based on Friel's statement the best way forward is to just teach what the bible says about race and how we are to treat the lowly, not just about blacks.

How am I wrong?

Where I live, schooling is far from equal. Everyone knows the academics and extracurricular activities at majority Black schools cannot compare with other schools in the district. CRT is not needed to see that problem, yet it is a problem. Of course, there are majority white schools in poor...

Interesting, like I said, Marx and his philosophy reacted to poor labor conditions. In America we fixed that with labor reforms and regulations to keep workers safe and happy. I see Now that we did not need Marxism to do that. CRT is to be opposed, and the underlying problems treated without...

I did not mean to be self-righteous, just honest. I assumed (A stupid thing) that you thought your position more just. I'm sorry if I offended you.

Thinking about it, I shouldn't talk about CRT having good points. It's like saying Marx had some good points about labor reform. I'll avoid mentioning my views in reference to CRT. I'll just point out we have to continue fighting racism as the church and I'll make my political point separately...

We do need to continue to call out racism and teach people to repent as scripture says. I agree. I see equal schooling and help for the least among us are political issues. I have a very different view than you. I believe my view is more just, but I'll just have to agree to disagree. I'll make...

Very true, then it seems the best thing to do is help the less fortunate be entrepreneurs, regardless of color. A higher proportion of which will be racial minorities.

Critical Race Theory is wrong on many points. That said, it does point out two real problems. A lack of wealth, and thus start up money, for capital for a number of black families. A sense among many people raised racist, like I was, that black people do not equal white people as creatures of...

I believe you may enjoy the logical concept of middle knowledge, Molinism - Wikipedia It gives a foretaste of how complex the working of God's omniscience may be.

I am not concerned in that, if I get it or not, if I die or not is in God's hands. The same is true of everyone. That said, obey the authorities and think of others concerns more than my own, so I wear a mask, social distance, and follow CDC guidelines. Please RighteousDude, conspiracy theories...
