    Does any supernatural god exist?

    Is that all you can say?:laughing: It seems that the only answer you can mumble on any counter claim you get (on any subject) is "your theology is completely incoherent and messed up". If you can not answer valid arguments based on the Bible, you might as well not answer at all, otherwise it's...

    Does any supernatural god exist?

    If we assume that Jesus is the One true creator God, then we run into major problems. 1) He was the one who told the prophets to write the requirements for Messiah, of which the earthly Jesus accomplished none. So in fact he denied being the Messiah. He also told them to write that the Jewish...

    The Holy Fire - Myth or Miracle?

    People don't ask for evidence anymore. From the moment the high priests responsible for the preparation of the light admitted that it is physical light and the Jerusalem Orthodox Patriarchate deleted the word "miracle" from their site and substituted it with "ceremony", I don't think there is...

    What is your opinion of Jesus?

    Thank you. Oxford languages gives this definition of spirit as the non-physical part of a person which is the seat of emotions and character; the soul. I'm sorry but I have no means of accepting it exists and there is no reason of it's existence. Various tests suggest that emotions originate...

    Morality of the Old Testament

    The only other apostle who lived in Ephesus and that is according to tradition was John, but as far as we know nobody charged him as liar and none abandoned him.

    Morality of the Old Testament

    Such as? And even if there are others, does anyone of them combine the biblical evidence that a) Paul stayed in Ephesus b) all his colleagues turned away from him there c) he was accused of lying, d) he was a criminal in the eyes of the first Christians and e) he wasn't a true Apostle in the...

    Morality of the Old Testament

    The text states: " “‘I know your works, your toil and your patient endurance, and how you cannot bear evil men but have tested those who call themselves apostles but are not, and found them to be false;" It is directed to the Church of Ephesus.. Did Constantine ever preach in Ephesus? Did he...

    Employees are not property and they can not be inherited, they cannot be beaten otherwise the boss goes to jail, they work as much as they want and if they want. It is our choice to work, not somebody else's. If the "Elect Saints" :) think like you, I feel sorry for your God.

    Morality of the Old Testament

    ??? Did you read the text? Like whom? Were they any Roman rulers claiming to be Christian Apostles??? And don't forget that Paul's journey brought him to Ephesus where he stayed for 2 years and 3 months. Also he admitted that all who were in Asia turned away from him and had to defend himself by...

    Morality of the Old Testament

    Do we know of anyone else who was in Asia claiming to be an Apostle but was not? I don't think so. Don't forget that Paul teachings differ from what Jesus taught in the gospels.

    Morality of the Old Testament

    The Greek text is the following Ἔστω δέ, ἐγὼ οὐ κατεβάρησα ὑμᾶς, ἀλλ᾿ ὑπάρχων πανοῦργος δόλῳ ὑμᾶς ἔλαβον." The words used are "panourgos" meaning devious/cunning and "dolos" meaning deceit.

    Morality of the Old Testament

    Paul admits that he was abandoned from everyone in Asia and he was called a liar. (2 Tim1:15 " You are aware that all who are in Asia turned away from me" and Tim 2:7 "For this I was appointed a preacher and apostle (I am telling the truth, I am not lying), a teacher of the Gentiles in faith...

    Morality of the Old Testament

    Well, he didn't say he didn't want to offend anyone. He actually said he did it in order to convert as many people as possible. So he pretended that he was under the law to some and not under the law to others. It is from NASB - 2 Cor 12:16 https://biblehub.com/nasb_/2_corinthians/12.htm

    Morality of the Old Testament

    a) It was the disciples who taught him for several days and perhaps Barnabas and immediately started preaching. Jesus taught him nothing. b) He admitted himself, that he does not consider lying a sin if it helps God glorified. Paul knew that God forbids lying in the scriptures (Lev 19:11) c)...

    Morality of the Old Testament

    Paul was a huge liar, megalomaniac and totally unreliable. He claimed that "For neither did I receive it (the gospel) from man, nor was I taught it, but it came to me through revelation of Jesus Christ."(Galatians 1:12). According to Acts 9, the only words that Jesus told him on the road to...
