Unfortunately I don’t have much time to respond to all you have written right now (which may make some glad :) ) but I do appreciate your comments. I would like to comment real quickly though on your last point here. [snip] Well, as far as I'm concerned it's not a perfect analogy anyway. Then again...

I would be curious to here some of your reasons or views as to why there is a gap but I don’t want to cause you anymore “ugh’s” :) so please don’t feel like you have to respond. Or if you have responded on a previous thread would you be willing to post the link? The reason I said "ugh" was because,...

I think the difference that Steve7150 has isn't that we didn't come from God an intelligent being but with the mechanics of how he went about creating. Does that sound right Steve? I didn't want to misrepresent you. Well, ugh. As far as how Creation happened, I don't think we know all the answers y...

Speaking as one who majored in Physics (and Computer Science) in college, I wouldn't worry about the mechanics of Creation. The mechanics of it don't really matter. If you want a way to resolve the argument over whether the universe is the product of a Creator or not, the answer is quite simple: Int...

As someone who is familiar with the feasts, I'd like to add my two cents on this one. To really understand the feasts of Israel, one needs to look backwards in history, not forwards. (At least, not forwards first .) To begin with, we should understand that God does things at specific times that have...

My understanding of church is to worship together. Learning can take place there, but also outside the weekend service in small groups. But I guess it's another area we'll have to agree to disagree on. Who says I disagree with you? In my particular case, I think I'm best served in a small group set...

That's interesting, Damon. Why are you not a member of a church, or why do you not regularly attend a church? Mainly for two reasons: firstly, because the things I want to learn right now can't be easily taught in a church setting, and secondly, because there are no churches that I know of which fo...

Damon, the Israelites were disobedient. They were not thwarting God's will. Er, go back and read Numbers 14:8-9. That was God's will. But compare that with what actually happened. God's will was thwarted in the short term. Also see Psalm 78:40-41, which tells the story of the Israelites' rebellious...

Whoa, where did all this come from? Let's sort some things out, here. 1. My take on Daniel's 70 weeks' prophecy has changed over the course of the past several weeks based on a study that I had been doing. I was posting the results of my ongoing study to the forum. 2. The issues that you're addressi...
