    Did Jesus Christ Actually Exist?

    Bart Denton Ehrman[a] (born October 5, 1955) is an American New Testament scholar focusing on textual criticism of the New Testament, the historical Jesus, and the origins and development of early Christianity. The main reason why i suggest Bart Erhman...he is an atheist who believes in the...

    Shifting more towards atheism

    are you suggesting that a Christian teaching biblical morals is immoral and that an atheist teaching according to social conditioning is moral? How do you determine what is antisocial? Are you going to claim that we can evolve morality? I would argue that is problematic given that one could...

    Genesis - Big Bang mash-up

    Answer me this...if God can miraculously create from nothing by simply speaking the universe into existence, Why does God need 300,000 years for it to cool down when he could just speak and it would immediately cool? You need to recognise that the bible is written already interpreting Gods...

    Shifting more towards atheism

    So tell me...how do you know what good is? Do you not base it on the results of others doing favourable works? How can you say religion is not fact based when judaism and christianity both promote good works? Are these not actions that have consequences you can study? Are they not actions which...

    Shifting more towards atheism

    I would argue that the problem atheists encounter with the fabricated evidences of qualities such as love, joy, tolerance... The atheist obviously must deny Epistomology. If our existing physical reality is the only evidence, what then do they use to drive discovery, forward thinking, learning...

    Did Jesus Christ Actually Exist?

    This has no contexf. No one has a clue what this even refers too. So given the above...ll respond by adding the context so people know what this is about... I am not saying Bart Erhman doesn't matter...thats a ridiculous inference. I was saying, you can start with any of his books as he is an...

    Understanding the holy scriptures is impossible unless God gives you the interpretation

    Only idiots continue to try to make interpretations that are obviously false. Your interpretation has been shown conclusively it's wrong in the book of Acts...I have already shown from the bible that the Ephesian Church were not rejecting Paul, it was the town silversmith fearful of loosing his...

    The Irony of Creationist belief

    Honestly, your statement is one of stupidity...the text overwhelming states over and over again. GOD MADE, GOD CREATED, GOD SET... One significant problem with your claim is God setting the stars in the expanse...this has nothing to do with the earth doing anything. You are wrong, the text...

    Did Jesus Christ Actually Exist?

    doesnt matter really Or you could simply start out with his Youtube channel https://www.youtube.com/@bartdehrman CAVEAT: please know that Bart does not believe that Christ was anything more than a mere man. He does not believe in Christ as the son of God, the gospel, or salvation.

    Did Jesus Christ Actually Exist?

    Might I suggest that you read what the well known atheist new testament scholar Bart Erhman has to say about Christs existence. Bart says that his own research has proven, yes, Christ really existed. Bart just denies the Jesus was God part of the historical narrative.

    Understanding the holy scriptures is impossible unless God gives you the interpretation

    Yes you have and yet you are incapable of comprehending that tye very history you deny is the same place where you get that history from! Do you not see the stupidity of your claim here? Sorry but your argument is flogging a dead horse...its been categorically and comprehensively refuted by...

    The Irony of Creationist belief

    Omg... Gen 1: 16God made two great lights: 17God set these lights in the expanse of the sky to shine upon the earth, 18to preside over the day and the night, and to separate the light from the darkness 21So God created the great sea creatures and every living thing that moves, with which the...

    Understanding the holy scriptures is impossible unless God gives you the interpretation

    That is nothing more than an argument about the common use of language. Arguing a common use of language requires special interpretation for biblical theology does not support your claim rather, it supports the opposite claim that the bible does interpret itself and Gods revelation to us has...

    Understanding the holy scriptures is impossible unless God gives you the interpretation

    i agree with this. We do not need to interpret scripture...the entire idea of the meaning of the word REVELATION is that the bible writers have already revealed God and his wishes for mankind in the scriptures...that's the entire point!

    Understanding the holy scriptures is impossible unless God gives you the interpretation

    I am a little confused by the purpose of your quoting of statistics re Christian nationalism...are you complaining its on the increase? Because if you are then your history is up the ****ter because it is a resurgence...not an increase (the two have very different meanings and implications)

    Understanding the holy scriptures is impossible unless God gives you the interpretation

    1. The apostle "Luke" tells us in the book of Acts (Luke wrote Acts), that Paul was rejected by the local town silver smith rustling up a riot to attempt to support his business in making idols for worship of pagan Gods (specifically Artemis) then later by the local Jews during his second visit...

    Understanding the holy scriptures is impossible unless God gives you the interpretation

    that love was the gospel. Now to paint the correct historical account of Pauls trials in Ephesus... Part of being a Christian is facing opposition. Just consider what Paul faced in Ephesus. His opposition ranged from minor inconveniences to major trouble. First, he encountered people who had...

    Understanding the holy scriptures is impossible unless God gives you the interpretation

    Why. did you only quote a small part of Revelation 2 regarding the church in Ephesus in your reference back to "fake apostle" Paul? I will address that error first before even getting into what you have talked about above because your reference post is errant and cannot be used as supporting...

    If heaven is a place of perfection, and angels created in perfection, how was their rebellion possible?

    My aim wasnt to backstab... I have done nothing more than let the text explain itself and the meaning is clear if one simply uses a common understanding of language comprehension when reading it. That is the crux of understanding the bible, letting it explain itself. If one is unsure of...
