    Syncretism.....Can Mixing Religious Ideas Lead to the Truth?

    It is historically accurate by naming places, people in power, and events that are confirmed by history. Having said that, past events in which nations came off second best to Israel's God, were not known for reporting their defeats.....only their victories. So there will be gaps in the...

    Syncretism.....Can Mixing Religious Ideas Lead to the Truth?

    I don’t believe that Jesus was concerned with the sectarianism of the Jews, and is not concerned with sectarianism in Christianity. History is merely repeating. Humans will do what humans have always done....embellish and add to and subtract from what is given to them. Christendom is a mish-mash...

    What religion is the one true religion?

    By finding the ones who are doing what Christ instructed his followers to do. These would be identified by the love they have among themselves, (John 13:34-35) and the fact that they would love their enemies and refuse to do harm to them. (Matthew 5:43-44) They would also be hated for remaining...

    And traffic lights...don't forget the traffic lights!!! :eek:

    What religion is the one true religion?

    No, I actually think that true Christians know who they are.....but the Bible indicates that many would be following a delusion because of not having a love for the truth, preferring instead unrighteous things. (2 Thessalonians 2:9-12) There is a difference I believe, in knowing that one is a...

    What religion is the one true religion?

    Don't post things when you are in a hurry....:p (fixed, thank you) Jesus was to return and gather his anointed at "the end of the age", so when exactly was that to be expected? The prophesies in Daniel point to our time....."the time of the end". Only at this time was God going to 'cleanse...

    Syncretism.....Can Mixing Religious Ideas Lead to the Truth?

    Jesus only mentioned the Pharisees and the Sadducees. So not many 'clubs', was it?....nothing close to Christendom. Nothing? We need to do nothing in order to be part of God's spiritual family? Where did you get that idea? Luke 13:24.... “Exert every effort to enter through the narrow door...

    What religion is the one true religion?

    LOL....the debate has raged for centuries.....no one has been able to ascertain what true religion is anyway....what is true for one is not true for others. Some can call themselves member of a certain religion and then shoot it down with everything they say. :rolleyes: Doubts seems to hover...

    Syncretism.....Can Mixing Religious Ideas Lead to the Truth?

    Taking other scripture into consideration, we can see that there was no “club” at the time when this incident took place. Jesus said that at that stage, just getting the message out was the important thing...not who did it because they were all Jews. Whoever therefore was “for” him among his...

    Syncretism.....Can Mixing Religious Ideas Lead to the Truth?

    The letters, teachings and recommendations from the apostles were circulated throughout the brotherhood after Jesus' death and return to heaven. He continued to direct the apostles and holy spirit was operative on all of them, Paul included. That being the case, nothing rested on any one man's...

    Syncretism.....Can Mixing Religious Ideas Lead to the Truth?

    I mean the real deal. In view of Jesus’ parable of “the wheat and the weeds” we already know that a counterfeit form of Christianity was to be sown by the devil in order to draw the disciples away from the truth that Jesus taught. (Matthew 13:24-30; 36-42) A counterfeit is hard to spot unless...

    Was Paul a legitimate apostle?

    The 12 were the chosen ones to be the foundation of God's Kingdom (Revelation 21:14).....but Paul was a unique choice, also chosen by the resurrected Jesus and educated by him; Paul was not educated by the other apostles. By the time he met the other apostles, he was accepted as their "brother"...

    How do you define evolution?

    The *conclusions* are an *assumption* based on what is *believed* to have occurred.....there is no way to *prove* that evolution ever happened on the scale that science *suggests* that it must have. That is really difficult for the science buffs to admit, isn't it? I can see you...

    Theological Depth

    Well put Adrian....just one of those is off putting for me.....#4. My beliefs do not need to harmonize with man altered or assumed science or history. Humans have taken license with both IMO. But the rest is spot on....:)

    How do you define evolution?

    And isn’t that what is demonstrated? “Belief” needs no “proof”....science demonstrates that as much as we do. Scientists have their own concocted interpretation of “evidence”...and we have our interpretation of that same evidence without the jargon and assumptions of science, but in realisation...

    How do you define evolution?

    I have already mentioned them.....amoebas to dinosaurs.....there is no real evidence whatsoever to demonstrate that it happened as science suggests it must have. The ‘chain’ of evolution (like the whole theory) is assumed, but to us the appearance of new lifeforms has an equally reasonable...

    Covid and Vitamin D

    I am talking about mainstream media. We are bombarded with Covid and vaccines all day long on our TV screens......but little to no mention of the things that increase the risk of this virus gaining ground....such as low Vitamin D levels poor vitamin and mineral intake, and obesity being...

    Covid and Vitamin D

    Never take health advice from a vain orange chimp....though he seemed to recover very well from the malady he didn’t think was real, or needed a mask for......:oops:

    Covid and Vitamin D

    Then you are getting better advice than Aussies are.....I have not heard any mention of vitamin D for help in building immunity to C19.....except in passing from the family doctor, and he never mentioned Covid except to encourage vaccination.
