No I meant no insult to you, that is why I tried to choose my words carefully by defining what "blasphemy" is in the simplest form or definition. I know it is a highly offensive word, and I apologize if you took it that way. I tried to explain that IMO, to ask this question, that no one can...

Not at all. The jailer got saved. Why not all the prisoners who saw all the same phenomena, one may ask? This insane question is questioning the sovereignty of God, and therefore an insult to God. You are questioning why God does the things the way He does, as if He does things wrong!! That is...

The RCC is apostate in its teaching. It is misleading in its history. It did not come into existence until the fourth century when a pagan emperor married Christendom to the state. At that time paganism was introduced into Christendom and Catholicism was born. As you can see idols still abound...

We come to know his son through the Word. The J.W.'s also read the Word, and yet Christ is only an angel to them. To the Mormon's he is simply "another god." The Son is defined for and speaks to us through His Word. And yet the RCC has now changed it stance recently on contraception urging...

Yes, I will try to leave the pronoun "you" out in the future. Originally my post was simply meant to answer some simple points and there was absolutely no malice in it whatsoever. It can be seen here...

Are you sure about that? This was Paul's complaint: Romans 10:14 How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher? --This is the essence of a question you asked previously...

Baptist Board is a debate board, a place for exchange and discussion of one another's ideas. Let me quote some of the rules you agreed to: This is a private Baptist board. BaptistBoard.com is run by a group of Administrators and Moderators who have volunteered to help out with the site. 2. Use...

But you live in a nation where the gospel can hardly be avoided. That was not my point, and indeed you just dismissed it completely. I keep repeating it because it is not getting through. The Bible clearly says in Rom.10:17 that the source is the Word of God. Faith comes by hearing and hearing...

Trust has to be earned. I got to know her slowly. That is true of the Bible message as well. Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God. How many people do you hear of that respond to the gospel the very first time they hear it. Probably about as many as marry their spouse the very...

We are on the seventh page of this thread. Instead of going back to the beginning and reading through everything I answered another's post. The reply I got was full of nasty insults and not worth replying back to. However, if you would like to respond to that answer, I would more than welcome it.

You will not find where I have done those things recently unless you do a search. But it seems you are set in your ways.

Faith is simple confidence in the word of another. You can trust the words of that person's need or you can trust the words of God. It is the "words" that is the message, that you are trusting. Faith is "confidence." 1 John 5:14 And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask...

It is speaking of Scripture of course. It plainly says "For the Word of God is..." It is what it says it is. No need to allegorize or make the statement figurative of something else. Take it literally. Compare scripture with scripture: Ephesians 6:17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the...

Are you Icon's cheerleader? Or are you just honing your ability to denigrate others? Your post also doesn't deserve an answer, rather it shows an inability to debate and answer the post that was given.

Again, more ad hominems with no attempt to answer the post. This doesn't deserve an answer.

Let me start off with a personal example. Often I meet others for coffee at a small coffee shop. They also sell "cider" there, a hot apple drink, refreshing in the winter time (certainly non-alcoholic). One time, when traveling through Germany I stopped at a kiosk and saw that they had cider. I...

I agree with Tyndale's response: "a failure to communicate." You have not attempted to address even one point in the post. Your entire post is an attack filled with ad hominems, which according to the rules should not be allowed to stand. Here is a good example: You define "carnal," as an...

"Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God." If you see a person who says he is need of money because he is hungry, and you are walking by. Perhaps you will stop and assess his situation. If you simply give him money, IMO, you are foolish. You first need to develop a relationship...

Yes. 1. I have taken enough Greek to get by. 2. We have enough Greek resources on hand to help us. 3. God promised to preserve his word. 4. Your statement assumes that most of the population, perhaps 99% is unable to read or understand the Word of God, but God wrote the Word of God in a way...

I am a Baptist, (Independent Fundamental Baptist), and as such take the Bible literally and as the inspired Word of God. No, we are all fallible. The Bible urges us all to study praying for guidance from the Holy Spirit. The first requirement is to be born again, that one might be indwelt with...
