Expansive time is what Creation denies, Special Creation is what Evolution denies. And I have an MS in Geology from Cal.

At it's very core, macroevolution is just as unobservable as Creation since, by definition, it requires millions of years to accomplish. All the scientist can hope to achieve is a preponderance of circumstantial evidence in support of the theory, but the theory by itself, will forever remain...

I am afraid the two worldviews are diametrically opposed and can not co-exist without one having to suspend logic and reasoning. In a nutshell, the young-earth, special creation worldview has death entering the world after everything is formed (Romans 5:12). Theologically, if death existed...

That is wrong. The Apostles had the Spiritual Gift of healing. That means they could use it at their discretion. They had within themselves the power to heal. What I argue is that innate ability, given by the Holy Spirit at conversion, is no longer extant. ANY and ALL healings are at the...

Adam and Eve were declared to be "very good" (Gen 1:31). They weren't made "perfect". Only God is perfect. They may have been made without flaw or blemish, but they were not perfect.

You are putting words in my mouth I did not speak. I believe miracles happen, they have happened to me personally. However, I reject, based on sound scripture, that any one person has a gift to volitionally work miracles- not withstanding your out of context scripture quotes. Pay attention to...

In all deference to Lux, Selene is making some fairly wild claims. Most of those are Catholic myths that sprung up from kernels of truth. But I'll provide a link for your information. http://www.marypages.com/IncorruptBodies.htm and one less "catholic" in it's treatment...

hahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!

They never went away. Every November 2nd (all Souls Day) 2 plenary indulgences are available (for those in purgatory only). http://catholicism.about.com/od/holydaysandholidays/p/All_Souls_Day.htm

That kind of a relationship, a familial one, is the relationship we look forward to as Christians. When we, as believers, will see Him as one can see any other person walking down the street. There are those who express they enjoy that kind of relationship with Christ now, even some who insist...

Adam and Eve were made flawless (along with every other living thing in the world), right down to their DNA. The history of the fall is a history of DE-evolution, not evolution. Even our genetic structure is breaking down over the short time since our first Father and Mother were cast out of Eden.

Can this be moved to the Christian Entertainment Forum, I don't have the juice in this part of the board.

In which manner are you referring? I think I know, but I don't want to assume.

Then he is arguing Scripture against a TV show??? My goodness, is he a scholar or a TV Guide columnist?

In two ways; first through intellectual assent, secondly through spiritual revelation. One can have the former without the latter, but one can not have the latter without the former (despite what the Oneness Pentecostals and denominational Charismatics may believe).

Ultimately He is unknowable in the same sense we ourselves are ultimately unknowable to each other. I can never think your thoughts after you, even if we were identical twins. What He has revealed is not an exhaustive revelation of Himself. Theogically, the term unknowable is used in a inclusive...

The Bible is His revelation of the portion of Himself that he wants us to have specifically (special revelation), along with the general revelation of Himself through His Creation.

It's scholarly only if you agree with amillennialism. Fair was Dean of Heritage Christian University, part of the Churches of Christ and they are decidedly amillennial. But on to his "scholarship", the very first point he makes in his second list is demonstrably incorrect. The word "rapture" is...

Your initial statement is somewhat flawed. Define time as a measurement of change of what? Well, the only thing I can come up with is "time" itself. That makes the statement circulus in probando. God is wholly other and thus really doesn't enter into this type of comparative discussion. Read...
