    Please go back to this post http://christianforums.net/Fellowship/index.php?threads/apocrypha-books.68498/page-4#post-1305424 You will see that I made three quotes of yours which were placed on the top. Then after I made that statement, I quoted you again I also made an important statement as...

    Harmony of the Gospels

    Your post confuses me, along with your username and avatar. Please if you consider yourself a Christian, or a "seeker" of some sort. If you consider yourself a "seeker" what exactly is it that you seek? You also call yourself an "apologist". Exactly whom or what is your intended audience for...

    Apocrypha Books

    You seem to be arguing against the facts, or else have an incorrect remembrance of what Schaff actually stated. Here it is again, and please look at the highlighted words carefully: In the Western church the canon of both Testaments was closed at the end of the fourth century through the...

    Apocrypha Books

    The Schaff quote demonstrated that number 2 is not fulfilled. they were only partly accepted and by segments of Judaism. Therefore they cannot be canon.

    Questioning Jesus’ Existence

    You asked for 10 words or less. (So I took it literally) BTW do you post on another forum using a user name beginning with e? Your posts seem familiar in wording.

    Harmony of the Gospels

    Seriously, are you attempting to make classifications of Christians? I hope not. I ask because one poster stated very clearly that the "order of the harmonies" is inconsequential, but you are seemingly taking issue with that approach. Therefore as a way to enlighten us about your intentions and...

    Questioning Jesus’ Existence

    John Dean caved like the proverbial deck of cards "house" when pressured by federal investigators about the Watergate break in in 1972, and sang like a canary (Yeah, I like metaphors). So the point Colson made was that "No man will die for a lie, but men will die for the truth.". That there...

    Harmony of the Gospels

    I neglected to state this, due to the fact that my severe allergies sometimes cause my head to spin............ The book Testimony of the Evangelists is a forerunner ofr Josh McDowell's Evidence that Deserves a Verdict, and it was begun with the same premise, prove that the Bible (in this case...

    Harmony of the Gospels

    There will always be those (especially in forms such as this labeled "Apologetics) (NOT TROLLING, MODS!) who have a low view of the gospels, and uniformly, their viewpoint is from the "high skeptic viewpoint". One thing that they seem not to understand is that the reliability of the account of...

    Questioning Jesus’ Existence

    I just heard that on my local Christian radio station! In an article years before his death, Charles Colson used the cave-in of John Dean (of Watergate infamy) to demonstrate the fact that "no one dies willingly to defend a lie" If you like this, you may also like to search what Colson stated...

    Here are two quotes I posted The most eminent of the church fathers speak in the strongest terms of the full inspiration and the infallible authority of the holy Scriptures, and commend the diligent reading of them even to the laity. Especially Chrysostom. The want of general education, however...

    Harmony of the Gospels

    this is "controversial" for some, but each of the Gospel writers had a different 'audience" in mind, so they specifically tailored their versions of the Gospel to reach their audience.

    Harmony of the Gospels

    As I noted, I was not attempting to moderate you, bro. Your post was germane to what she asked.

    Harmony of the Gospels

    Interesting, but I do note that the OP was asking about a harmony of the Gospels. (posted as a fact, and not an attempt to moderate)

    Harmony of the Gospels

    Good catch! Also missing in the BC/AD year designation is the fact that there is no "year zero" and the fact that the date of the exact time (let alone season) of the birth of Jesus has never been accurately stated, anywhere. That is because the times and date of events are stated in...

    Harmony of the Gospels

    Correct me if I have the wrong idea, but it seems as if you are attempting to harmonize the Gospels using a map as your sole resource. At best, any harmony is an educated guess, and is not definitive about the chronology of the life of Jesus. there are many harmonies available. Here is a...

    I grieve for your loss, and for your son's loss. Can you forgive your wife for being human, and being deceived? As I read your account, my mind flashed to Eden, and I was wondering how Adam felt when Satan deceived Eve. It is important for preachers to make sure that they are examples to the...

    Apocrypha Books

    If you are going to quote another poster, it is best to quote something in its entirety, and not snip something that may give a false impression: In the Western church the canon of both Testaments was closed at the end of the fourth century through the authority of Jerome (who wavered, however...
