    What does the Bible say about when Jesus Christ would return?

    Matt, Do we need anything further than Matt 24:36 (ESV), "“But concerning that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father only." Oz

    Do you understand what God-breathed Scripture means regarding the nature of Scripture? Oz

    Why I support the inerrancy of Scripture!

    That is true, Jim. But translators are capable of wrongly translating a word, phrase and sentence or adding an incorrect nuance. Oz

    Why I support the inerrancy of Scripture!

    QT, That is not what the Scripture means by "inspiration" and that's why I don't use the word in relation to Scripture. Scripture is GOD-BREATHED (Gk theopneustos) (2 Tim 3:16). Oz

    Why I support the inerrancy of Scripture!

    QT, I don't use the term "inspiration" when discussing the inerrancy/infallibility of the original MSS. For the purposes of this discussion, Scripture is GOD-BREATHED (Gk theopneustos) (2 Tim 3:16). In practical terms it means that every word in the 66 canonical books of the Bible’s original...

    Why I support the inerrancy of Scripture!

    Michael, OT scholar, Gleason L Archer, stated he would not accept the inerrancy of Scripture until he had a solution to the apparent contradictions. His book, Encyclopedia of Bible Difficulties (Zondervan), grew out of his grappling with the difficulties. This link takes you to the public...

    Why I support the inerrancy of Scripture!

    QT, I would need you to define what you means by "inspiration" before I could attempt an answer to your question. In a summary of his chapter addressing the topic of the inerrancy of the original documents, Greg Bahnsen wrote: “While the Bible teaches its own inerrancy, the inscripturation and...

    Why I support the inerrancy of Scripture!

    How are the Christian Scriptures divinely authoritative? Evangelicals like myself have come to the conclusion that both Old and New Testaments are inerrant (without error) in the original manuscripts. How have I reached that decision? It did not come from an a priori assumption. I had to...

    Is Incest Sin or Not?

    Was Eve the mother of Noah, Jeremiah and Amos? Oz

    Is Incest Sin or Not?

    Aunty Jane, I find there is a simple, reasonable answer. The human race had to get started in some way but after the Fall into sin (Gen 2), it fell into the category of promiscuity, e.g. Galatians 5:19–21. Oz

    If

    That's the point of dealing with erroneous logic and logical fallacies. When discussing any issue, we need each other for teaching and reasoning.

    If

    I reach the same conclusion. It is erroneous reasoning to pursue an Appeal to Popularity as we haven't discussed the issues relating to the topic. The erroneous reasoning can be reduced after much discussion, but 100% support is rarely going to be achieved. Oz

    If

    I find it difficult to do it constantly. In fact, I am unable to do it constantly if I'm honest. Oz

    HERESY?

    Keiw, That is fallacious reasoning of a Red Herring logical fallacy. We haven't discussed the pros and cons of the Trinity but you declare it one of "many false gods today." Why don't you start another thread where we can discuss the doctrine of the Trinity - with a scriptural foundation? Oz
