    Are UFOS mentioned in the Bible? What are they?

    This is a setup I usually take. Just what are your numbers in this probability? You might have a good idea of the number of stars (less likely the planets) in the universe [to stretch the remotely practical, we should limit this to 'our' galaxy], but what is the likelihood of life developing...

    ...all things to work together...

    You are obviously not going to answer the question asked-- which is a complete thought followed one of these: "?" Actually you can not prove that. Maybe he does, for all we know, have a unique name or number for every individual beetle of every species, and has an order by which each will be...

    Are UFOS mentioned in the Bible? What are they?

    The government does know what? I have an inkling, and you sound like one who would accuse the government of lying if they do tell, for example, "flying saucers" are/have been experimental rotorcraft, or that alleged bodies from a crash or encounter were dummies. Uhny Ufts!

    Are UFOS mentioned in the Bible? What are they?

    Unidentified Flying Objects? I don't think so; as far as I recall, everything flying in the Bible was identified.

    ...all things to work together...

    You're saying it's not true that we [/COLOR]don't have brain nibble of the capacity to understand all things and how they work together for any purpose? restated: Do we don't we? So sin and suffering were his own conception he brought to fruition?

    Raising hands at Church

    No, if any of my hands ask for a raise I refuse...... if I can. Ed. I don't think church is the place to ask for that, anyway.

    ...all things to work together...

    My view seems to be close to yours, but if God steers some event in progress in the direction of being for somebody's good, then he is causing something. If that's the end of his causing, then the question ensues to what fraction of events he does so with, and whether if no one involved loves...

    What is your food weakness?

    What is your food weakness? Not eating it. Once when I went on a complete fast for 3 days I wasn't in too good a shape and had trouble lifting my feet.

    ...all things to work together...

    Romans 8:28 New American Standard Bible (NASB) 28 And we know that [a]God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose. Footnotes: Romans 8:28 One early ms reads all things work together for good ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I...

    Are you a Yankee or a Rebel?

    97% Dixie. I don't know how I've taken other such tests that have said I must be from the Great Lakes, when I've never tasted the water from a one of them. And I like punkin pie, but not sweet tater.

    If You Could Get In A Time Machine

    I would only go back as far as the late 15th century in England, or the 16th century on the east coast of North America, because otherwise the only language would be gibberish. Peabody and Sherman, as well as Time Tunnel and all those others, had it wrong in that way.

    Baptist Pope Fans

    When this new guy is brought up-- and we can't avoid hearing or reading it-- I will always think of him as the "Dairy Queen Pope." I was at my usual spot, the local DQ at that time of day, when their screen had CNN on following all this stuff, especially that the new pope was to be identified...

    Why do drivers speed down the highway?

    Neither the poll nor the discussion has gone as I had thought. I remain the lone answer to the "...ancient instinct..." idea, which I have gradually developed over the years. Of course we know we can almost always get away with speeding 5-10 mph over the posted limit, because one usually has to...

    Honest Question: Why do we place a stigma on certain Sins?

    At least since I Corinthians 5 was read.

    Why do drivers speed down the highway?

    The speed limit for a left lane should be higher than for others? I thought in most states now it is illegal to 'cruise' in the left lane; that lane is for passing. One problem I've seen is a car gets into the left lane to pass, then the vehicle it was passing speeds up, so the passing car would...

    Why do drivers speed down the highway?

    How do you arbitrarily determine that? Are you not saying it's too slow just because a vast majority want to go faster?

    Why do drivers speed down the highway?

    Almost everyone knows that drivers generally speed, ignoring the law because it’s so easy to get away with it in this case. So the answer(s) sought is not “because it’s easy to get away with it,” but why the large majority of drivers wish to speed. Romans 13 also does not have anything directly...

    LIberty University Lifts Hands and Praises God!

    LIberty University Lifts Hands and Praises God! That's better than lifting their feet and praising the devil, ain't it?

    is the Holy Spirit Involved in the "Modern Charasmatic' Movemnent at all?

    Are tongues a sign not for believers but for unbelievers? [14 v. 22] Are tongues limited to 2 or 3? [14 v. 27] Are tongues interpreted by not more nor less than one? [14 v.27] Are speakers of tongues silent if there is not that one interpreter? [14 v.28] Do 2 or 3 prophets speak (not one, not...

    is the Holy Spirit Involved in the "Modern Charasmatic' Movemnent at all?

    What exactly does that mean? Did she have any more headaches or not? (while only she would know, and if she is going around boasting about what great faith she has, there is no way for the listener to know).
