Re: Jesus is God
But the fact that the scripture says that the Father raised Jesus, Jesus raised Himself, and the Holy Spirit raised Jesus, should cause a non-Trinitarian to reconsider his position. It is plainly written that the Father raised Jesus from the dead.(Acts 2:4, 3:15, 4:10, 5:30. 13:30,33, and several o...

Re: Jesus is God
Well explained, Darin!
But for a Trinitarian, the Trinity raised Jesus from the dead, as Otherness seems to say.

Re: Jesus is God
Matthew 15:31 - "So the crowd marveled as they saw the mute speaking, the crippled restored, and the lame walking, and the blind seeing; AND THEY GLORIFIED THE GOD OF ISRAEL." If this is not referring to Jesus, then I'll eat my hat. He was the One visible, doing the marvelous healings, all eyes wer...

Did Jesus Raise Himself?
Ac 13:30 But God raised him from the dead, Ac 13:34 And as for the fact that he raised him from the dead, no more to return to corruption, he has spoken in this way, "’I will give you the holy and sure blessings of David.’ Ro 10:9 because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and belie...

Re: The Longest Known English Word
I no longer believe that the "word" consisting of 189,819 characters is a word at all. I suspect it's someone's invention. I searched the internet for the longest known English word and found the following: Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis (45 letters), the meaning of which is: Pneumoco...

Re: Christians and the Covid Vaccine
Quote from Albert Mohler:
“There are third parties—people who cannot take the vaccine or do not yet have access to it that could still be infected by those who refuse to take the vaccine,” he wrote.
They could also still be infected by those who do take the vaccine!

Re: Does belief save?
We all need enabling grace to do the works of God.

Re: Does belief save?
First, I am glad that you understand "being saved" to refer to "being purified of our sins". For there are a great number of people who think it means "being saved from going to hell because of our sins". You are right also in understanding that belief alone does not save us from our sins (or purify...

Re: Use of Aborted Fetal Tissue
To those who believe it is okay to use aborted fetal tissue: Suppose your father or brother had been murdered. Do you think it would be all right, to remove his heart and transplant it into the body of a living person whose heart has failed, and who is being kept alive by artificial equipment? If yo...
