    When a believer dies, will he be with God as a sentient being right away?

    SO in your Theology, Paul LIED when he taught "Absent from the Body is PRESENT with the lord"???

    The Paraclete appeared on the Pentecost

    Inaccurate. The "Paraclete" as Jesus said: "Ye KNOW Him, for he's been WITH you, and shall be IN YOU (John 14:17). THAT happened at John 20:22, the effects of which are recorded in Luke 24:45 - Their Understanding was OPENED, since they were now Born Again. Pentecost (Acts 2:4) is the Holy...

    There is no spiritual gift called "the gift of tongues".

    BINGO!!! MOST "Prophetic Messages" (Particularly on the Internet) are as phony as a $3 bill. When I hear a "Prophetic Word", I file it in "Pending" and wait for confirmation, as Paul instructs in 1 Cor 14:29.

    Drinking Alcohol, should a Christian do it?

    BINGO!!! The Bible DOES NOT condemn drinking Alcoholic beverages (i.e. present them as a SINFUL ACT). What the Bible DOES DO, is warn of the debilitating effects of alcohol consumption. The Bible Cautions against the use of alcohol (Or drugs), where the effects of alcohol may result in sinful...

    What is speaking in tongues?

    This is the "Priming the pump" stupidity. You CAN'T LEARN "tongues". When the Holy Spirit puts "Tongues" (or prophesy, or "Word of wisdom / Knowledge, or interpretation of tongues) into your mind, then you JUST SPEAK IT, without adding to, or subtracting from what HE gives you.

    Christianity : is not a Denomination.

    Nope - truth only comes ONE WAY: From the Holy Spirit. I have no assurance that you even KNOW the truth. (1 John 2:27)

    How did Paganism get into the church?

    They "died out" when they were incorporated into the heretical Roman Catholic religious system as part of their "Holy (Lying) Tradition". Roman Catholic "Theology" is a web of heresies and LIES.

    There is no spiritual gift called "the gift of tongues".

    Chuckle!!! Nothing but "Word games", and silly "Hair splitting".

    Does it matter which version of the Bible you read?

    Nope - not really. Bibles all say the same stuff, and reading them will get you to the same place. "Theologians" howl, and beat their breasts when somebody INTERPRETS something in the Bible differently than they do. but it's only "Theology, after all. Jesus promised the HOLY SPIRIT to Born...

    Where does the Pope get his authority?

    From the Roman Catholic Religious Corporation as it's "CEO", of course.

    The Pre-Trib Rapture

    Biblically, even though there's ALL SORTS of Prophesy in the Scriptures, there almost NO EVIDENCE Scripturally, that Anybody understood any of it /got it right UNTIL AFTER THE FACT. Jesus is a prime example - and the JEWS STILL HAVEN'T GOTTEN IT 2000 years later.

    Why the advertisements???

    All of a sudden his site is displaying intrusive advertisements on all the forums. is this a new "Feature"???

    The Pre-Trib Rapture

    Nope - I never paid any attention to any of 'em (I used to hang the big charts for the "End Times Teachers" that used to travel around trying to scare folks into getting saved). Eschatology, as I said, is really NOTHING BUT RANK SPECULATION. Some folks get off on it, I pretty much IGNORE IT...

    The Pre-Trib Rapture

    Simple fact is that "Eschatology" at BEST, is nothing but a religious word for "Rank Speculation". The "Professional Theologians" are all over the map, and every one of them has "Convincing evidence" that their "precious concepts" are accurate. I still have my copy of "88 reasons", proving...

    Who would you hire?

    False hypothetical. There will always be practical differences, so I'd hire the one that I THOUGHT would be a better "Fit". Personally I've interviewed a lot of folks, and the question of "Religious belief" hasn't come up. If I'm programming Allen Bradley equipment, and one is Allen Bradley...

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    You might want to read your Bible, and see what it says the "Public reaction" to God's TRUTH will be among the unregenerates. Whether you like it of not, REAL CHRISTIANITY, as the spiritual darkness gathers, will not only look "ODD" - pretty soon it'll look "DANGEROUS" (as it already has in...

    Is Sunday the "New Covenant Sabbath"?

    The SDA is morbidly afraid, that they'll be FORCED by the Government to "worship on Sunday" which will be the "End of the world" for them. They FEAR the "Sunday laws" to come. I'd say that it's pretty unlikely that "the Government" will ever even give a hairy rat's posterior for which day a...

    Is Sunday the "New Covenant Sabbath"?

    Nope. The "Sabbath" day, as Biblically defined, is STILL sundown Friday, until Sundown Saturday. However, the new Covenant is that JESUS is the one in whom we rest from our labors, and Romans 14 indicates the UNIMPORTANCE of observing a certain day. Around here the "Cowboy CHurch" (Texas...

    God kills Hypocrites and Takes them Home. He will not be Mocked.

    Boy HOWDY!!!! - It's been a LONG time since I've heard that one. Back in '63, the Southern Baptist Church (Greenwood Baptist in Pasadena Texas) I was initially propagandized in (New Convert's Class) taught that - i.e. God will KILL YOU, if that's what it takes to get you into Heaven before...
