Bob, That's because there has been no, or little, discussion of the issues. I've thought about this over lunch. Would you agree that our Western democracies are mostly built on the majority vote, which is erroneous reasoning? This can be modified in the Party Room, where the issues are...

That's the same illogical conclusion. You know what is happening in countries of the West where a large percentage of people promote the LGBTI+ lifestyle. That does not make it correct when the issues surrounding homosexuality have excluded God's view. See my article: Why politicians should...

Bob, Here, Paul used the most comprehensive Greek word for prayer, based on the noun, proseuche, which means that a Christian must not reduce the regular habit of "taking hold on God" in the midst of all circumstances (cf. Rom 12:12; Eph 6:18; Col 4:2) [William Hendricksen commentary, 1...

Bob, That commits The Appeal to Popularity Logical Fallacy. It is fallacious (erroneous) reasoning. Oz

Bob, I sometimes do this, pointing out their use of logical fallacies - using the name of the fallacy (if I know it). Most I meet have little knowledge of logic or illogical tactics. I find a better way to explain the insult is to show how the person has not dealt with the issue at hand but has...

Keiw, God had a single religion/faith in the OT. However, there were many other gods worshipped: 14 “So fear the Lord and serve him wholeheartedly. Put away forever the idols your ancestors worshiped when they lived beyond the Euphrates River and in Egypt. Serve the Lord alone. 15 But if you...

GEN, You are not consistent in your knowledge of the Commandments. You want me to keep the Sabbath but you say nothing about stoning adulterers and homosexuals to death. You commit the law of contradiction. Oz

GEN, Where does the NT state that Christians must worship on the Sabbath? Oz

GEN, I live under the New Covenant. There is NOT A WORD in the NT that says to worship on the Sabbath for "a balanced lifestyle for true Christians." I'm not a SDA member and your attempts to convert me have failed. Bye, Oz

Bob, No! He's the God of all-knowledge, all-power and all-wisdom who is much more capable of directing my life. God's sovereignty is a powerful covering for this weakling. Never would I step into the shoes of fending for myself when God is with me. You don't know my personal difficulties. I've...

Bob, We can't fend for ourselves as we depend on the Lord's sending rain on soil to produce crops. We depend on Him for the air we breathe. Oz

Nancy, you can access the 1611 KJV online HERE. Oz

Bob, Who is your ultimate authority in spiritual matters? Do you rely on the majority of Christians and their views or do you depend on the ultimate will of God the Father as stated in Scripture? Oz

No, he didn't. This is what Jesus taught: "I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing" (John 15:5 NIV). Oz

Bob, I'll need more of a defense than your simply making this statement. Where in the Bible did our Lord teach "us to fend for ourselves"? Oz

The death of Jesus and his resurrection BEGAN the New Covenant. We no longer stone disobedient children to death or require capital punishment for adultery. We live in a new world - thanks to Calvary.

Cassandra, Your citation of Matt 24:20, "Pray that your flight be not in winter nor on the Sabbath day," points to its being more difficult to travel a Sabbath Day's journey in winter. Jesus clearly expects these events to take place under a strict Sabbatical law. This is not for NT believers...

Holy999, Why don't you seek one in your local church in Sweden? I'm not fussed on finding a Christian girl of sound character on a website. Are you hesitant about looking for a girl in church? If so, why? Oz

Cass, This is not exactly true. "The Lord’s day (as distinguished from the day of the Lord) is Sunday. The term Lord’s day is used only once in Scripture. Revelation 1:10 says, “I was in the Spirit on the Lord’s day, and I heard behind me a loud voice like a trumpet.” Since the apostle John...

GEN, What you've said here contradicts Scripture. You are shadow boxing. The law is only a “shadow (skia) of the good things to come instead of the true form of these realities” (Heb. 10:1). The argument is parallel to the argument in Colossians: both contrast elements of the law as a shadow...
