Edited by staff The fact is ONLY Acts 1 talks about the replacement apostle and it follows it with Acts 2 and the word 'they'. You can bring out all the synoptic passages you want but it is OUT of context. Luke was the author in both, and his dealing with the FACTS are chronologically...

All the I's in Roman's 7 relate to Paul in various tenses. Not sure why you see anything else. and exactly what verse in Romans 7 states this assertion of yours? As I said, all the I's refer to Paul. It doesn't say anywhere about being ensalved in sin. Jesus delivers us (ongoing work by...

Break it down between tenses Drew. You're making assertions without any exegesis. Use the words IN the scripture and NOT your own words. STOP trying to insert your doctrine INTO the text.

I apologise. you didn't say guarentee. I didn't take the "all but" into account. No sorry I wasn't, but you sure can be. Shall I point it out every time you are? You want to use Luke to interpret what Acts is saying? WOW! That is definitely way out in left field. Just exactly where in...

Non-responsive. Anyway I was just trying to point out that people who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.

I totally disagree Nick. How do those posts from Danus fit into the OP? Too bad I have to make these kind of posts. Maybe you should get rid of that icon if it's not allowed to be used.

LOL...nice try...I'm not going to get into hypothetical situations so you can ask me if he should submit to her.

Really? What is that word you used in post 98? I'll quote it for you, "I can all but guarantee " You've never heard the old Cajun colloquialism, "I garahntee" ? The feeling of condescension is ALL on you my friend. That's NOT how grammar works. You go back to the last identification of...

This is in the context of a husband/wife relationship, not a corporate setting that forbids women from teaching. I find it amazing that many English translation put a foot note that syas or Husband, but that only 3 use the word Husband. Paul says in a few different scriptures that women pray...

Well if you read the first couple of chapters of Acts, you would see that in 2:1 where it reads "THEY were all together in one place", the word they refers back to the last mention of a group which would be 1:26, "and he was counted with the eleven apostles." I'm pretty sure this is how grammar...

Oh so as someone who calls themselves a Christian, you think that Christians ought to "SHUT-UP" and encourage non-Christians to read the Bible whatever way they want to?

No I don't. Jesus said, in Matthew 22:30, that there will be no giving or taking in marriage at the resurrection. Seems to me, that what a lot of people call soul mates, are nothing more than 2 carnal natures getting along well. To me, FALLING IN LOVE, sends a message of lack of control...

Pretty sure I did. I said Paul is talking about our pre-salvation life, starting at v5 and jumps back and forth from past tenses to present tenses. Then at v14 to v25 he remains in the present tense. I don't see a problem with this chapter like you seem to see.

Well like I said I used to subscribe to the "gap" theory, but for a little while now I subscribe to a "fully mature" type of creation. The style of writing though in the first two chapters of Genesis is a bit repetitive with more details each time. So Moses starts with Gen 1:1, then details...

:biglol OK well you may be a physicist, but you lack a tad on proper hermenuetical exegesis. Hebrews is written by Luke and not Jesus. As an inspired writer, this verse is very clear as to His inspired understanding of how God created the universe and world. I have only ONE philosophy...

Yes I understand that and although it sounds reasonable, the fact that Genesis call them all days without distinction, makes me have to accept them as literal 24 hour days. The angels issue is kinda off topic so I won't address it more. What do you feel the time lengths were befroe God...

Because you are NOT being clear Free and I wonder why you can't answer a very simply constructed question?

continued from last post... I don't recognize what you see in 1 John. Even more, John the Gospel was NOT written by the John of these epistles or Revelation, so there is no carry over from any thoughts you think he may have had in the gospel of John. v19 states; They went out from us but they...

Re: For Stan As I said in my last post, this means the same as Romans 28:29 in that once we sare saved/delight in Him, He roders our steps. This does NOT happen before we are saved/delight in Him. No that's what you READ into the verse. That is called eisegesis. God is talking about His...

I was asking YOU what YOU meant, not what the OP meant, or what is USUALLY meant. Are you saying that believing that creationism is wrong, is NOT essential to being a Christian?
