This is where your misunderstanding of scripture is most shown. What was the context of "all who have sinned"? Salvation or government? Are we not to give unto Caesar what is Caesar's? Are we not to be afraid if we do evil, for the ruler beareth not the sword in vain; but is the minister of...

Interesting. As of two minutes ago, the lead story at: CNN.com - Where to bury the body. MSNBC - Where to bury the body. FoxNews.com - Whistleblower report about Benghazi DrudgeReport.com - Gore has $200 million in the bank NPR.org - Online Viagra Sales AP News - Israeli strikes on...

And THAT should be the question that finishes the discussion. In fulfilling the Law, WHAT did Jesus make unnecessary? Answer: fulfillment of the Law for salvation. NOT for civil/government ruling. When we see Jesus rebuking the Pharisees and others, it wasn't related to civil...

Hey, Rev -- I'm amused that you liked that saying enough to make it your tagline; but putting my name to it doesn't seem right. Seems like I'm getting credit for something that someone else said. If I can track down the original author, I'll let you know.

Didn't mean to insult your intelligence; always start with the simple, and work up from there. Knew a guy once that charged someone $75 to fix a printer problem; turned out, all he did was connect the printer cable to the computer. I thought he ripped the guy off; he didn't see a problem with...

My first thought was to clear your cache, empty your temporary internet files, stuff like that. I also did a search and found that you're not the only U-Verse customer to be having this problem. Seems to be something with DNS settings. I found a reference to this...

My wife told me about something she found on Pinterest, or maybe Facebook: when it's a bombing, we blame the bomber, not the bomb; when it's a drunk driving incident, we blame the drunk driver, not the car or the alcohol; but if it's a shooting, we blame the gun....

Really? You and I often disagree? I didn't know that.

Ma'am, Respectfully, that's why there's a section on this message board for ALL Christians. The sections designated "For Baptists Only" are so that those who are Christians by second birth and Baptists by preference can discuss the idiosyncracies of this particular denomination. Many of the...

Especially the "leading of the Spirit." My family was visiting a church for the last four months, but something kept holding me back from outright joining. Last week, they called a meeting to vote out the pastor because some of them don't like his wife. The vote failed, but the situation jolted...

Salty - if you meant it as a jest towards Poncho, well.... I happen to think Poncho is mostly right about a lot of things....

Out of uniform, with no perception that they're representing their particular military branch or the government in some kind of "official capacity" -- they're free to worship, evangelize, attend conferences, etc. At any point, if they use their military status in some way to influence others...

Try showing him 1 Kings 13. Emphasize verses 9 (what the young man of God had been told not to do by God); 11 (the old prophet/man of God); 17 (the young man of God telling the old man of God his restrictions); 18 (the old man of God lying to the young man of God); 24 (what happened because the...

Awaken - on page 1 of this thread, I asked you what was your point; it was because I discerned you had a motive for studying your opening post. You replied that your only motive was to study scripture. Since then, you've proven that your reason for studying your opening post was to support a...

Is there a point?

Exactly how does that analogy apply to the USA?

CTB - somewhere I missed the "satire" tag. Did you forget to put it in there?

Can the unsaved exhibit joy? Peace? Gentleness? Meekness? If so, then one must be cautious when judging by the fruits. Yes, there are counterfeits; and that includes speaking in tongues, doesn't it?

And THAT is the true test, the true measure of where the gifts are coming from. What do they preach about Jesus? Do they preach the gospel, or do they espouse "prosperity"? Tolerance of sin? When you pay attention to what they preach, is it a "feel good" message, or a true message of God's love...

Again, what's your real point here? Scripture also does not say that he *didn't* give credit to God; so just like you're guessing that Simon didn't give credit to God, we can just as easily say he did. You're trying to make an argument from silence; so as you told Yeshua, let's stick to what...
