Very interesting thread so far. What say ye to the following; Daniel 12 10 Many will be purged, purified and refined, but the wicked will act wickedly; and none of the wicked will understand, but those who have insight will understand. 11 From the time that the regular sacrifice is...

Hello savedbygrace. This is what you stated; "In the Eternal Purpose of God, He ordained sin, caused sin and death to enter this world" Do you see the paradox that this theology is presenting savedbygrace. God is love and He creates a person with the express intent of sentencing that person...

Thanks Barbarian for your replies, most interesting.

Hello felix. Thanks for the reply. "The big questions". Is science equipped to tackle the big questions, or is science in fact something else? Historian Jacques Barzun termed science "a faith as fanatical as any in history" and warned against the use of scientific thought to suppress...

So savedbygrace57 you are saying God created billions of people. God created them to suffer under the dominion of evil. After they had suffered they were judged and sentenced to hell. This is pure theology that is why it does not make any sense. How could God sentence anyone to hell when He...

Because Jesus Christ was predestined then God must have created man with an evil disposition. God will judge sin and God could not hold anyone accountable if God was the author? How do hyper Calvinists explain why God would judge anyone? Redeemed from what? It was all God's will, we cannot be...

God set the rainbow in the sky to remind us of His covenant. A rainbow results from the refraction of light through the rain drops. In a rainbow, the arc shows red on the outer part, and violet on the inner side. This rainbow is caused by light being refracted while entering a droplet of...

Stormcrow you stated the following; John was not writing to people living 2,000+ years after the fact! He was writing to the seven churches of Asia (what we now call central Turkey). The vision he has of the Four Horsemen, therefore, is a vision of things that have both happened, are...

Hello stormcrow. You keep using the phrase "apostate Israel". Apostate means to defect from, fall from. Paul states that Israel was of the old covenant. Read the following; Galatians 4 24 This is allegorically speaking, for these women are two covenants: one proceeding from Mount Sinai...

Redemption in your view would be a paradox. Redeemed from the will of God?? I have trouble understanding the lines of logic in Calvinism. Jesus Christ was predestined to die for our sin. Because Jesus Christ was predestined then God must have created man with an evil disposition. God will...

Science is based on assumptions. An assumption is a belief. Science is a belief. All natural phenomena have a natural cause, not according to the Bible. God creates and destroys, never any natural cause for any event.

Identifying the harlot as the RCC is not exclusive to the SDA. I have found the theology of SDA to be seriously erroneous. I am able to see the harlot as both the Roman empire(historical) and the RCC (futurist). I have a number of reasons for this opinion, read the following. Revelations 18...

Reprobation, in Christian theology, is a corollary to the Calvinistic doctrine of unconditional election which derives that some of mankind (the elect) are predestined by God for salvation. Therefore, the remainder are left bound to their fallen nature and certain damnation. This same state of...

Hello Elijah674. You stated; But, 'i' will not sell my soul for a pot of pourage by not giving my answer to that question from the other post.:thumbsup The whore of Rev. 17 is the Catholic church & the daughters are those who are coming back to her, even as we speek. (total pollution/wise...

Hello Elijah674. Whom or what is the harlot?
