Yeah, and I also saw how you were excoriated in that same thread over and over.

YES! That's it! Commonality implies CAUSALITY!!! Since the word for pills is from the same root as witchcraft then all medicine is of the devil!!!! Thank you for clearing that up! (yes, I know you will get some letters HS, but it HAD to be said)

Most of those are Prosperity Gospel Churches (and the mega-sized Churches). Where if you aren't healthy, wealthy, and successful then something is wrong with YOU, spiritually. NOTHING can be further from the truth. God does NOT have a wonderful plan for your life. He has a wonderful plan, but...

I think I found your problem right here: You were simply trying to emulate the wrong person. Everyone on the face of this small blue ball is broken and messed up in some form or another... *gasp* yes, even humble little old me ;) The only person we should strive to want to be like is Christ...

Your first sentence is at odds with the words of the Lord. Jesus uses the occasion of a question about forgiveness to give a teaching about the Kingdom of Heaven (verse 23). He is not giving us instruction on how to receive forgiveness at all, its about how we give forgiveness to others. That...

:rolleyes:

Just sat in on Lesson 3 of the 4 part Advent Conspiracy study. I'll sum it up this way; it was the spiritual equivalent of watching the Home Shopping Channel while eating Chinese fortune cookies. If someone in your congregation or bible study brings this up, try to swallow the little bit of...

Axe, he asked for opinions on how to tithe today, not a critique and insult to his belief. Would you make shipwreck of their faith so you can be right all the time? Quite self centered if that is your goal.

I answered all 8 of your questions in one statement, "You are waaaaaaay over thinking the parable..." All 8 of those questions have nothing to do with what the parable was actually about.

I reject the Arminian view of justification and opt for the Double Predestination teaching of scripture. Man can not reject the forgiveness of God because we are DEAD in our sin.

Bing, you are waaaaaaaay overthinking the parable. Simply, Jesus pre-cross is setting the groudwork for a teaching his disciples will learn post-cross on their own. He is preparing them for the ultimate form of forgiveness, Himself. By telling this parable Jesus is teaching them that...

Ask Pete if I can have the keys, I want to make a beer run ;)

This is too long to reprint but here is the link: http://bit.ly/VRtn8e Clears up what revival is, what it looks like, and how and who works it.

I was thinking exactly those passages myself.

I suppose I don't have that view (watering down the Gospel) being raised near the neighborhood of the Vanka Church Murals... or or See here: http://www.vankamurals.org/

Just because He could doesn't imply that he did. The Genesis account is quite consistent in it's use of the world Earth in the singular and the Heavens in the plural. But, one more time, though I'll ask my question more directly... is it your considered opinion there is sentient life on...

Almost a nice dodge... but it doesn't matter what I believe... I was asking about you since you brought it up. If it was covered in the thread elsewhere I apologize since I haven't followed the thread till now (when something interesting actually happened). ;)

Does it matter one way or another if it is the only planet with sentient life, or are all the other planets just giant jungles like Dagobah?

I don't see the point the author is trying to draw. In these times of hyper-antichristianism (the next step is outright persecution here in the US), we MUST hide the nativity in plain sight in this culture. The incarnation of Christ is taught as fable and fairy tale rather than history, and that...
