    The earth is flat and we never went to the moon

    Actually, stupidity is a sin. It is God's will that you come to the knowledge of the truth. I Timothy 2:4 God warns people against a lack of knowledge (of His word) in Hosea 4:6, "my people are destroyed for a lack of knowledge" It is God's will and prayer that we know what God wants us to...

    The earth is flat and we never went to the moon

    Are you capable of thinking in three dimensions? Yes you are. Why don't you do it then and find out what God said east from west and not north to south in that verse. Evidently, when confronted with truth logically presented and it contradicts your error, you resort to name calling insults...

    The earth is flat and we never went to the moon

    Dave, Clearly, logical thought is a wonderful learning adventure. Especially as it applies to scripture and how God uses it to illustrate truths. Should you ever venture into it, I am sure you will find it most enlightening. o

    The earth is flat and we never went to the moon

    Oh, I am sorry, I forgot that the clarity of what that verse states or rather implies was not obvious to me, many, many years ago until it was explained to me by a wonderful teacher of God's word. Psalm 103:12 states that as far as the east is from the west so far has he removed our...

    The earth is flat and we never went to the moon

    Most certainly the earth is "flattish" from my perspective and I certainly did not go to the moon. However, God knows that the earth is basically a sphere for He designed and created it. He did not change the design to accommodate our lack of understanding of God's word. Psalm 103:12...

    Are you Going to Heaven?

    Whether or not I did any or all of those things I am still going to heaven. Your list of sins is irrelevant. That Jesus Christ loved me to give himself for me is what is relevant.

    Are you Going to Heaven?

    All sin is sin. Did Jesus come to save sinners or to condemn them? Do saved people go to heaven? Can Jesus save them or not? Who does the saving? The sinner? or Jesus Christ?

    Things that are different are not the same that includes God and Jesus Christ.

    Since God is the Father of the lord Jesus Christ and Jesus Christ is not the Father, they are not the same. Jesus Christ is the son of God The scriptural description of Jesus Christ, "son of God" does not carry the same meaning as "God". No more than "son of David" carry the same meaning as...

    John 2:23-3:7 23 Now when he was in Jerusalem at the passover, in the feast day, many believed in his name, when they saw the miracles which he did. 24 But Jesus did not commit himself unto them, because he knew all men, 25 And needed not that any should testify of man: for he knew what was...

    ECT "God the son" and "son of God"

    Do those two phrases mean the same thing? Has language any value to communicate ideas, concepts, truth? Are they interchangeable in scripture? If they mean the same thing then words/language are become useless tools of communication. I John 3:1-2 Romans 8:14 Job 1:6 Genesis 6:2 Are the...

    ECT Mark 9:23

    All things (all things that God says He will do) are possible to him that believes When we believe a promise, we receive that promise. What promise have you believed recently (not necessarily yesterday) and recognized as God's doing? For me it is a joy when someone sees God's love in me...

    ECT Does scripture teach that God is "sovereign"?

    Well, the word "sovereign" does not appear in scriptures. At least in the KJV. The English word "sovereign", according to my Webster's, means "royal; supreme in power possessing supreme dominion; effectual: n. a king, emperor, or queen. Is God supreme in power? Of course He is. There is...

    The English phrase "free will" is not found in scripture, however, "freewill" is found in scripture. ( All verses will be KJV, unless otherwise specified the KJV is a reasonable version to use as the basis or starting point.) Leviticus 22:21 And whosoever offereth a sacrifice of peace...

    Proverbs 27:5 Open rebuke is better than secret love. How does II Timothy 4:2 fit with it? 2 Timothy 4:1-6 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all long suffering and doctrine. How are we to rebuke people? With all longsuffering and doctrine.

    You have an abundance of opinions, but what can you show from scripture? Jesus Christ was the greatest example of teaching relevant scripture. Matthew 4:4 and similar situations He considered scripture, the word of God to be truth. John 17:17 He did not consider himself to have power or...
