    Calvinism and Darwinism

    No reports? Well, I asked Daddy about whether I had a will that made me responsible. I felt responsible, and I talked responsible, but what do I know? He spoke very slowly, after saying "Yes." He said that freedom of choice was the freedom Jesus was talking about when He said that He came to...

    How do you live the Christian life?

    An axiom of life is, "You can't play the game if you don't know the rules." The "Christian Life" rules can be divided into three parts: preparatiom, process, and purpose. (Sorry, I have an incurable case of Baptistitis) Jesus warned that the ill-prepared convert would be unfruitful: preparation...

    [_ Old Earth _] Evolution / Creation / Intelligent design

    Remember that the word "confusion" means "fused with." In the theory of evolution, the idea of an old earth, the idea of adaptation to a niche, and the idea of natural selection are fused together. The first two of these ideas are very probably true, and reflect both God's patience and His...

    Grace or Law?

    Good summary, GodspromisesRyes, The law itself insists that obedience is to the voice of the Lord, as we meditate on the law, day and night. And, as you note, this in response to our dealing with our own wickedness. The Lord commanded to His followers that they "keep all things whatsoever He...

    [_ Old Earth _] Evolution / Creation / Intelligent design

    freeway01 writes, YE creationist give all the credit to God, But what sort of God? The God of the scriptures describes Himself as a loving father, daddy actually, who talks to His children and calls them to live by every word that proceeds (present tense) from His mouth. Who "conceals a...

    Can a Saved man choose to be Lost?

    Dying to self, via taking up your "cross" or implement of crucifixion, daily, is something to ask God about. One's own choice of a means to self-death must be the first to go. But what we can do is what out Lord did, beg to be spared in the hope of at least receiving the peace that passes...

    Can a Saved man choose to be Lost?

    Paul, I confirm with Glorydaz that you are hearing clearly God's heart for these times. I also find intriguing your lack of a response to my search for any righteous ones in the world today. !44,000 you say, but where are they? Can they be righteous, and have their light under a bushel? For...

    Paul, Who can you name that is doing this well, if not best?

    Grace or Law?

    Poohbah, In trying to keep the Lord's command to "be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect." (Matt 5:48), I've remembered Eph 4:12-13 (NKJV) where the ingredients needed are being ministered to by apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, and teachers: equipped. The main work of the...

    Grace or Law?

    Poohbah, Are you looking for Ps 19:7, "The law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul."?

    Grace or Law?

    Paul wrote that "'we know that the law is good if one uses it lawfully" (1 Tim 1:8, NKJV) Also, agreeing with the law, that it is good, is the basis of grace, writing, "...I agree with the law that it is good. But now, it is no longer I who (sin) but sin that dwells in me." (Ro 7:16-17). So...

    [_ Old Earth _] Evolution / Creation / Intelligent design

    Crying rock, You comment, I appreciate your 'spirituality', and I love God with all my heart, but this a science forum. I'm pretty sure there is a theology forum on the board: Actually, I am a professional scientist trying to follow up on William James who in 1902 introduced "Scientific...

    Can a Saved man choose to be Lost?

    Paul, I notice on another of your posts that you recommend Chuck Missler. Is he a good example of holiness? Good fruit? From your post, I get the impression though that you are stressing both the hidden, "within you" part of the kingdom, and the "Christ in you, the hope of glory" idea. That is...

    [_ Old Earth _] Evolution / Creation / Intelligent design

    Crying Rock, Thanks for the leads to those modern bards, reminding us with such inspiration of what God is hoping we'll remember. I'm a disciple, called to be a teacher, but all can prophesy and hear His voice. He says to remind you that the seed cast by the wayside gets eaten up by the birds...

    Can a Saved man choose to be Lost?

    Paul, Yes, these are the fieldmarks all right! But where can this wonderful species be found? ORU? Rose Creek Village? Bill Gothard's ministry? Where have you looked? What have you found? Do you exercise the discernment of Malachi 3:18? You can e-mail me directly, if you want to be preserved by...

    Can a Saved man choose to be Lost?

    Paul, Here's a question for you. Where in the world at the present time is holiness most manifest? What assembly, what nation, what peoples? Who is the most fruitful representative, the brightest light of the world, the saltiest salt? Any insights?

    [_ Old Earth _] Evolution / Creation / Intelligent design

    Barbarian. By the way, I've prayed about your claim that YE creationists are the real cause of the loss of faith of so many learning about evolution, and He said that you were hearing Him correctly. While forgetting God in the teaching of evolution is sin, and pays certain wages of death...

    Physicist askc, [You conduct double-blind experiments of God's influence? How?" Frank Loehr set up trays of germinating seedlings, one of which was watered from a jar of bottled water that had been prayed for previously, the other from an unprayed for bottle. The jars were labelled, but the...

    [_ Old Earth _] Evolution / Creation / Intelligent design

    Barbarian, Given your definition of science, basically inductive, I agree with your conclusions. God, by definition, "Conceals a matter." and says that He is invisible. I have found a science of the invisible, ans asked God whether He would let His presence br explored by that science. He has...
