    Is Science The Top Reason People Abandon Spiritual Pursuits?

    Yes, that’s a powerful reason, too. Keep in mind who is controlling this world… 1 John 5:19. John 12:31; 14:30. And there’s always our imperfect human nature leading to selfishness, doing things that we want (or the easiest things), to the exclusion of others’ best interests.

    Adam and his wife died physically after eating the Forbidden Fruit. Genesis 2:17 is Literal.

    I follow what you’re saying. I do. You mention “ambiguous and contradictory scripture “. Yeah, there’s a lot of that between translations, but from the unearthed original-language manuscripts, both Hebrew & Greek, there’s little room for disputing who the Bible’s God is! In fact, trinitariarians...

    Adam and his wife died physically after eating the Forbidden Fruit. Genesis 2:17 is Literal.

    I have, very carefully. I suggest that you need to. Jesus worshipped his Father (John 4:23; John 20:17). As a Christian, ie., follower of Christ, so do I. Yes, you’re right. At Luke 10:21, Jesus said, “ I publicly praise You, Father,… because You have hidden these things from the Wise and...

    Adam and his wife died physically after eating the Forbidden Fruit. Genesis 2:17 is Literal.

    Well, great! Then I ask you: what is God’s Kingdom? Do you mean the Harlot? (Revelation speaks of much.) If it applies to Rome, then how is Rome guilty of the “blood… of all those slain on the Earth”? Revelation 18:24 People were being killed, way before Rome was even an entity. Regarding...

    Jesus is not God

    Adam was God’s son. He wasn’t God. Neither are angels… although they are called God’s sons. The God is unique. None of His progeny, equate to being Him. You take care.

    Adam and his wife died physically after eating the Forbidden Fruit. Genesis 2:17 is Literal.

    You have to look at the context, of course. I agree with what you said to Indigo; I see no “lessons” that are taught, believing it is allegory. But back to your responses to me… the Bible basically calls itself a test to people, at Hebrews 4:12. It says it is “able to discern thoughts and...

    Adam and his wife died physically after eating the Forbidden Fruit. Genesis 2:17 is Literal.

    Did you even read the description the Bible gives of the Prostitute in Revelation chaps.17 & 18? I bet you haven’t. If you had, you’d see how well the description fits religion. Religious thinking which has misrepresented God for eons. Still, you belittle.

    Article, “Internal Proofs of Bible Authenticity”

    Great article, covering many facets! I think it deserves its own thread: https://commentaries.2001translation.org/Authenticity

    Jesus is not God

    Adam is called “son of God”, at Luke 3:38. At Job 38:7, the angels witnessing the Earth’s beauty right after its creation, were called “sons of God [who] shouted in applause.” Indeed, a special honor! But it’s obvious that being called “son of God” doesn’t make you God! Not even another god...

    Is the evolutionary doctrine a racist doctrine?

    Hey, are you back yet? Can we talk in PM?

    Adam and his wife died physically after eating the Forbidden Fruit. Genesis 2:17 is Literal.

    The future — the near future — is that the political element existing now as the United Nations, will turn on religion, all forms of it, and succeed in destroying almost all of it. (Such an event would bring a lot of peace to this world…. governments will get religion’s money, and pay a few...

    Jesus is not God

    BTW, I didn’t arrive at any of this on my own; but after a thorough examination of what I was being taught, and seeing how it harmonized with the rest of Scripture, it helped to convince me. But really, what Jesus said about how to identify His followers, cuts through and beyond any debate on...

    Is there any reason to reject the science of evolution, other than religious beliefs?

    I see evidence that it takes thinking to create informative structures, by which I mean functional performance of these structures’ parts. I see no evidence that thoughtless, unthinking natural mechanisms can create novel parts, and then arrange them to perform novel functions. If you think...

    Jesus is not God

    No, it says demanding a miracle is evil. You’re twisting words, my cousin. They (the Pharisees, common Jews, and his disciples) had seen Jesus perform many signs and miracles. Demanding another, was just unneeded, and revealed their wicked motives.

    Jesus is not God

    Jesus said his Father was “the only true God.” (John 17:3) (And Jesus didn’t include himself.) What does “only” mean to you? (From Dictionary.com): Only —adverb. without others or anything further; alone; solely; exclusively. By adding Jesus as God, you’re breaking the First commandment...

    Jesus is not God

    Christianity was hijacked by apostates, early on. During the Apostles’ time, ie., 1st Century, even tho these first Christians were from different countries they loved each other. They obeyed Christ’s command to love (John 13:34,35; John 15:12; John 15:17); they were “no part of the world” (John...

    Jesus is not God

    Do you understand, that makes no sense? There’s only *ONE* God, the Father. — 1 Corinthians 8:5,6; Deuteronomy 6:4; Exodus 20:2-6. Anything more, is polytheism.
