No, it wasn't all the Jews. It was some religious leaders who wanted to kill Jesus and it was the Roman gentiles who did the actual killing. Even then there were some religious leaders who were sympathetic toward Jesus such as Nicodemus and Joseph of Arimathea. For what it's worth, tradition has...

I don't think such scripture exists. It's probably a saying we hear repeated all the time in church but isn't actually in the Bible, like "Cleanliness is next to Godliness" or "God helps those who help themselves."

Not real? Someone actually died (not including the shooter).

Question, do gnostics belive we are all gods or part of the divine?

I think you can. Here's an article I wrote several years ago on that very topic:

Yes, time is short, but they've shown they are willing to take that risk when they decided to push Biden out at this stage in the race. I think they are desparate to stop Trump, and desperate people do desparate things. Whatever enthusiasm Harris has will be short-lived. As to who would replace...

The Bible says if you confess with your mouth and believe in your heart that Jesus is Lord and He was raised from the dead, you will be saved (Romans 10:9). Now, I wouldn't necessarily expect a new Christian to change all their ways overnight. Sometimes it happens, but not always. But the desire...

Kamala is not well-liked, has no charisma, and polls even lower than Biden. I'm not even counting the polls post Biden stepping down because that is akin to a dead cat bounce. That is a term used in the stock market to describe a decling stock that has a temporary increase before continuing its...

I recall a forum post along those same lines. My response was that when Jesus was resurrected and appeared to His followers, He still had the crucifixion marks in his hands (John 20:24–29). He could have returned completely whole, but He chose to keep them as a reminder. In the same way, the...

Let's play the substitution game: Would that make sense? A Christian wouldn't excuse adultery or other sexual sins (or at least they shouldn't), yet for some reason, homosexuality is the only sin that some "Christians" feel the need to excuse. There are plenty of verses that would condemn...

It seems strange that you would support your position not with the Bible but with a modern psychological textbook, one that espouses evolution no less. Ironically, psychology used to define homosexuality as a mental illness but has since bowed down to pressure from the LGBT activists. No gay...

You're going to see his dementia get really bad now.

I don't know, that pretty much sums up the left. Hi Jay, I would say that statement is ony true if Biden was fairly elected, which I have doubts about that.

I think everyone goes through this. At times we feel closer to God, and at times it feels like God is more distant. There are seasons in life, and sometimes we go through dry spells.

I like the way you think, but not many sees it the way we do. I do believe there is more going on than we can see. I have an idea what's going on, but I can't prove any of it. No matter how bad it may look, I have faith that our best days are still ahead.

Yes, sin, but would that negate what I wrote? Certainly, there are sins of the heart. But there is also a distinction between sin and temptation, thoughts vs. actions. It's possible to be tempted and not sin. So, again, thoughts alone don't define us or our identity.

Not quite. Absolute immunity only applies to offical acts done within the confines of the Constitution. There is no immunity for unoffical acts. I'd wager there's a lot of unoffical acts Biden has done while in office.

In human form he may not have been, he put his divinity aside briefly. But outside of that, yes.

There's lots of conflicting reports. I think he has too much to lose and will stay in as long as possible. Then his own party will oust him using the 25th. They know he has no chance of beating Trump.

Same-sex attraction is just a feeling, and feelings do not define us; our choices do. Being gay is not who they are; it's what they do. I'll use this analogy. Say a person thinks about robbing a bank. Does merely thinking or desiring to rob a bank make them a thief? No. Only if they actually rob...
