    Christians: I intend to watch Passion of the Christ tonight for the first time

    So you're saying that you disagree with the message of the Bible. I apologized, "I'm sorry that people are as tactless as Joseph Smith was." How on earth is that overreacting? I wasn't offended. God hates sin and false doctrine. If we are to follow Christ, we too will hate sin and false...

    Christians: I intend to watch Passion of the Christ tonight for the first time

    I responded, "What good is it to recognize His suffering without knowing the purpose of His death or to minimize that purpose?" So are you admitting that you were mistaken when you said, "We LDS are definitely not trying to minimize His actual death by crucifixion, but just to stress that it...

    Christians: I intend to watch Passion of the Christ tonight for the first time

    You can't read another person's mind, can you? What good is it to recognize His suffering without knowing the purpose of His death or to minimize that purpose? I'm sorry that people are as tactless as Joseph Smith was: "I was answered that I must join none of them, for they were all...

    Christians: I intend to watch Passion of the Christ tonight for the first time

    The crucifixion is a very serious topic. I think we ought to discuss the facts about the crucifixion rather than trying to lighten things up.

    Christians: I intend to watch Passion of the Christ tonight for the first time

    I see you are speaking about two separate beings. Our Christ not only suffered many things, but he died for our sins. And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross , having slain the enmity thereby: (Ephesians 2:16) And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him...

    Christians: Did Jesus Command Peter to Deny Him Thrice?

    It is not a command. In King James English, it is simply stating what the future holds. Genesis 2:17 also uses the words "thou shalt" to inform Adam of the future. "...for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die." Genesis 2:17 Other examples: "But charge Joshua, and...

    Christians: I intend to watch Passion of the Christ tonight for the first time

    For the preaching of _______ is to them that perish foolishness, but unto us which are saved it is the power of God. 1 Corinthians 1:18 I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is _______ in vain. Galatians 2:21 1Moreover, brethren, I declare...

    Why Dont Christians Accept the Book of Mormon as Valid?

    Christians don't silence God. Can you explain why there was no scripture between 435 B.C. when Malachi ceased writing and the time that the first of the New Testament writers began writing? Is there scripture and new revelation for all the years of man's existence on earth? The Holy Spirit...

    Why Dont Christians Accept the Book of Mormon as Valid?

    Hebrews 5 1For every high priest taken from among men is ordained for men in things pertaining to God, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins: 2Who can have compassion on the ignorant, and on them that are out of the way; for that he himself also is compassed with infirmity...

    Why Dont Christians Accept the Book of Mormon as Valid?

    As the King of Righteousness, Melchizedek was the image of God’s Spirit. Man is not inherently righteous and cannot be the King of Righteousness: As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one: (Romans 3:10) And yet Christ was without sin: Who is the image of the invisible God...

    So are you suggesting that authority can only be bestowed by another who already has authority? What is the authority you are talking about?

    Why Dont Christians Accept the Book of Mormon as Valid?

    What we do is compare LDS scripture to the Bible. LDS scripture is racist; the Bible is not.

    Why Dont Christians Accept the Book of Mormon as Valid?

    Unless one has the Spirit of Christ, he doesn't belong to Christ. If you belong to Christ, He is your Shepherd and you follow Him. [/FONT] Amen! [SIZE=1] [/FONT] He was speaking to Israel. His other sheep are gentiles. [FONT=Tahoma] The word translated sticks does not mean books or...

    Why Dont Christians Accept the Book of Mormon as Valid?

    :eek: What? The Church didn't end with Jesus and Jesus is still the Head of His Church! Believers are the body. The Holy Spirit guides every believer into all truth. The prophets are those who preach and teach the word of God. If Christians/followers of Christ/Saints/believers are the body...

    Why Dont Christians Accept the Book of Mormon as Valid?

    And who can do the will of God? Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent. (John 6:29) But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name (John 1:12) Either...

    Why Dont Christians Accept the Book of Mormon as Valid?

    No, the unanswered questions are all answered in Jesus Christ! Some men have no interest in Christ. To those men, the preaching of the cross is foolishness. To those who are saved it is the power of God. The saved are complete in Him; they go in and out and find pasture. They have eternal life...

    Why Dont Christians Accept the Book of Mormon as Valid?

    The Shepherd cares for His sheep and they follow Him. Believe me, they are not starving! Therefore, the sheep don't need an LDS chapel. John 10 7Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep. 8All that ever came before me are thieves and...

    Why Dont Christians Accept the Book of Mormon as Valid?

    You use the KJV Bible as far as it is translated correctly believing that your religion has restored the plain and precious things that were supposedly omitted from the KJV and other versions by evil men. What does the Book of Mormon say about the message of the Bible? I've posted the answer...
