Re: Steve Gregg Responds to Jack Hibbs

Shame. Video is no longer available (at least through the link). "Copyright claim by Real Life with Jack Hibbs" would have enjoyed seeing it.

I rarely get time to watch something two hours in length. Home sick with a flu bug today, however, and watched the whole thing. Very persuasive and well done!

Re: Biblical Literacy Quiz

Missed one on Biola test. Wasn't sure which miracle was in all four gospels.
On genesis I knew Leah was first and Rachel was last so my odds were 50/50. Got lucky and guessed right. Didn't remember Dinah or Tamar. Didn't know Joseph's age when he died.

Re: Best postive scientific evidence for an old universe/ earth

Re: Is Homosexuality a birth defect?

Matt, your point is well taken. There is indeed considerable evidence that the brain does respond to behavior. I read a study a while back (sorry, I don't recall the reference) that compared the visual parts of the brain with the auditory areas. Individuals who suffered blindness (not congenital) ha...

Re: Commissioned to heal

I must admit that over the years I have trended towards the idea that "healings" does refer to the actual event and not to the individual providing the miracle, not counting the special commissionings by Jesus mentioned above. I see Paul in Acts 28:8 "healing" Publius' father. A verse later in Acts ...
