Hello ToT. I hope you are well. My post does not say that my interpretations are the correct ones, it says that there is a correct way to interpret all of scriptures!! I am confident I am interpreting certain scriptures correctly, but at the same time I keep an open mind in case someone...

Hello Chopper. I will try and reply in a manner which will not be interpreted as an affront to anyone. Forgive my previous post if you felt they were insulting in any manner, but I tend to get very excited about scripture interpretations since, in my heart, I know there's a correct way to do...

Ephesians 1:4 - God does chose people to do His work, and that is what Ephesians 1:4 is saying. He does elect some folks to do His work. How, I don't know

I'll tell you a little bit about "people's ability to, through the Holy Spirit, to interpret Scriptures." My brother-in-law is a minister. He says the Holy Spirit is the one that leads him to scripture interpretations. Yet he says the Holy Spirit tells him we can lose our salvation, we need...

I will never question God on why he does certain things. I imagine, that even though the Bible doesn't say so specifically, people like the Amalakites had their chance to accept the ways of God. They didn't so God destroyed a perverse society. I guarantee you, that if God new of any...

First of all, I didn't insult you. I made a statement that simply says, I don't know why you would interpret scripture that way. I don't know you and you don't know me, that is true, but we are all Christians, even though we don't agree. So, please, don't take my comments the wrong way. Why...

It always amazes me how people interpret Biblical scripture. I have read Matthew 13:10-15 from my interlinear bible which is a direct translation from the Hebrew Masoretic text and that is not what it says. Matthew 13:10-15 - And coming near, the disciples said to Him. Why do you speak in...

Never mind then, considering this thread is about missing link and evolution, why wouldn't I assume that's what you were talking about. :D

What do you mean by "with their own kinds." Evolution does not say animals of different "kinds" mate together, or animals give birth to different kinds. This is where I see how little you understand what "evolving" is. Animals will always mate with their own kinds. "Microevolution" is...

TheBeardedDude. I've always loved Paleontology. There was a time in my life when I wanted to study the fossil record, but then life happened. Good to have you on board.

A misconception it truly is. I don't believe in a "missing link." Unlike what some people believe, animals do not all of the sudden change into a "missing link" species. Microevolution events occur within species, causing perhaps a small, undetectable change in a species. However, over a...

Truly, until we stop with these labels - pretrib, postrib, midtrib, 3/4trib, no-trib, whatever-trib - we are not going to understand what the Bible is really saying. You will continue to read under the umbrella of whatever "trib" you believe in, instead of investigating what Revelations is...

Quick question for those who believe in 6 day creation. How long was the 7th day?

Going back to original theme of topic - there has never been dinosaur fossils discovered with human fossils in the same strata. Dinosaurs lived 65 million years ago. They went extinct. Mammoths and other large mammals are not dinosaurs. There really is no way around this. This is what God...

Hello to all. I have been following this conversation quite closely and if I may interject something. 1 Peter 1:5 - by the power of God, having been guarded through faith to a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time. This verse tells me that we are not in this alone folks...

Mondar, by the way I don't HATE the Calvinist , I just feel it's wrong to read the Bible and interpret it to fit a label. Believe what you read, don't read what you believe into statements. God bless.

I apologize if you were offended by the statement about needing to learn to read the bible. I admit it was unnecessary and not very nice. But you have now asked me to raise the bar of evidence and I feel that I have given you enough evidence, but you refuse to comment on it. The bottom line...

Mondar - I provided contextual evidence, which you have ignored so far. You need to learn to read the Bible. When you look at a phrase such as "the whole world" you don't look for the possible meanings of whole. Whole is whole. You look at the possible meanings of world. What is meant by...

Mondar says - I will address the 3 out of context passages quoted. Two of the three passages are based upon the single word "all." Most people who quote such passages as Narwhalist did assume that the only possible meaning of the word "all" in each passage must be interpreted as "all men...

Hello and blessings to all. True salvation can never be lost - look at the following 3 scriptures. 1 Peter 1:5 - by the power of God, having been guarded through faith to a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time. This scripture lets you know that through your faith in God, your...
