    Why I'm 'Christian'

    He did not teach the law is a curse. He taught that we in our natural states are cursed, or if we, being under law, do not continue to do everything written in the Book of the Law. Deut 27:26 “Cursed is everyone who does not continue to do everything written in the Book of the Law." (quoted in...

    WE (I) BELIEVE IN THE FATHER, SON, AND HOLY.

    You're not interpreting this right. Jesus was not "begotten as a true Son in eternity past before anything was created." That is the pagan conception, of gods begetting gods, which was wrongly adopted by High Trinitarians in their endeavour to reconcile Jewish theology and Greek philosophy...

    Why I'm 'Christian'

    The foundation of Christianity is that the covenant continues. Paul explains the nature of the covenant in Galations and Romans. The christian covenant is one of faith, not bondage to law (Hab 2:4) Gal 4:21 Tell me, you who want to be under the law, are you not aware of what the law says? 22...

    How and why did you reject christ?

    No clue as to what you mean. He was resurrected in the flesh, and ascended in the flesh. The God of the bible mocked gods made out of stone. ??????? You're too preoccupied with science. Science is not part of God, but only part of his creation. You need to grasp the historical gospel facts...

    I have a question about use of niqab and corona face mask.

    Niqab/Burka is not religious-Islamic, but militant-Islamic. Even Morroco has banned it in 2017: “bandits have repeatedly used this garment to perpetrate their crimes” (Morrocan official)

    Why I'm 'Christian'

    May be so. But now one greater than they has appeared. By the prophet John: John 1:26 “I baptize with water,” John replied, “but among you stands One you do not know. He is the One who comes after me, the straps of whose sandals I am not worthy to untie.” Luke 7:28 "I tell you, among those...

    How and why did you reject christ?

    What you are referring to is pantheism, which is paganism. You're not asked to believe in a pagan God. How did you come by that learning? I'll grant that pagan sacrifices are usually in vain. He wasn't embarrassed. He was raised from the dead to sit in judgement on all men.

    Qatari sociologist blames plastic surgery, blasphemy, homosexuals for Beirut blast in expletive-fill

    Not according to Christ, who refined religion somewhat to being inherently personal. Under Baha'i and Islam, it may well have reverted back to being mainly political. It's a fact that they do. The US constitution ensured that you don't have to be any kind of Christian to be a politician. You...

    Man to Man... or Woman

    A medical illness includes a psychological illness, but in any case, all kinds of medical illnesses are imputed as having their origination in evil spirits in the bible. I never said that body and spirit were not two different things. But they are not independent. Few people's conception of...

    Man to Man... or Woman

    I'm not saying subjective experiences are made up. I concede possession by evil spirits is very real, and has influences on the mind and body. This is a fundamental teaching of Christ. There is no attempt by scripture to mitigate the severity of the symptoms, and neither do I. The issue is...

    Qatari sociologist blames plastic surgery, blasphemy, homosexuals for Beirut blast in expletive-fill

    It may ultimately be a fallacy if pushed to far, and I fully concede that I do not agree with all the tenets of Sharia law in Islam, which I obviously do not agree to be the genuine article. Yet on the other hand, to be so opposed to so much religion suggests that you may be mislabelling your...

    Why I'm 'Christian'

    Literally translated, Deu 17:8 ¶If there arise a matter too hard for thee in judgment, between blood and blood, (i.e. shed blood), between plea and plea (i.e. legal causes), and between stroke and stroke (wounds). If there is any extension to the whole of the law, it would be based on the...

    Man to Man... or Woman

    I didn't judge anyone as I was not referring to any poster. I was speaking hypothetically, reponding to allegations being made against me, as to which I am getting rather tired of them. So I shall stop responding. In any case, it's up to every Christian to judge the matter for themselves...

    Why I'm 'Christian'

    Incorrect. The passage you defer to involves primarily judging disputes, and not issues of interpretation of the holiness law (law of justification). As the NIV puts it Deuteronomy 17:8-13 deals with matters of justice in "bloodshed, lawsuits or assaults."

    Man to Man... or Woman

    My definition of a Christian is found in the bible. It is not my own judgement. Romans 8:9 "And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Christ." So I am not guilty of anything.

    Man to Man... or Woman

    I'm not getting into that. The word gender meant only sex, amongst other things, until feminists corrupted the meaning from 1977. See the etymological dictionary. This new meaning became part of pop culture. It is not therefore a serious academic word. I see it as part of a new gnostic religion...

    Man to Man... or Woman

    A Christian is known by whether he has the Spirit of God, not by the denomination he attends, or the label he identifies with.

    Man to Man... or Woman

    It's your word, not mine. I only use it to infer transsexuals, or wannabe transsexuals.
