Re: Why Couldn't Satan be Literally Imprisoned Now?
Paidion, I don't understand how you can think that the same God would give such two contradictory messages as the Bible and the Koran. It's clear to me that one is genuine and one is counterfeit. It's not the same as two groups of people coming to different conclusions about the same message (meanin...

Re: Why Couldn't Satan be Literally Imprisoned Now?
Paidion, I don't know how familiar you are with the Koran. I read it through twice a few years ago and my first impression was that it contained several stories also found in the Bible, but poorly written and filled with obvious inaccuracies. On that basis alone, I don't see how it could be consider...

Re: God's commands in Jesus Christ.
John 6:27 "Do not work for the food which perishes, but for the food which endures to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give to you, for on Him the Father, God, has set His seal." 28 Therefore they said to Him, "What shall we do, so that we may work the works of God?" 29 Jesus answered and sai...

Re: Theosis
Your topic reminds me of the teaching of Norman Grubb, who helped to found Intervarsity Fellowship (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norman_Grubb). His emphasis was on what he called "Union Life", which centered around Galatians 2:20 and Romans 6-8. Also I believe the teaching of Major Ian Thomas had a...

Re: Church fathers view on hell
Hi Alex, maybe this will help answer your question. Here's several quotes I found from some of the Church fathers. Are they accurate? The authenticity of some may be debatable. Take a look, you can decide for yourself what view they held: Ignatius of Antioch Corrupters of families will not inherit t...

Re: Evidence for Evolution - Final video and new website des
Did you notice how the list of scientists I posted have their titles and institutions nicely listed next to their names? Not too shabby of a group of skeptics if I do say so. I'm sorry, but I cannot believe that all the millions of complex and diverse life forms, animal, plant, etc. came to be throu...

Are you talking about macro or micro evolution? Big difference.

Re: Evidence for Evolution - Final video and new website des
The statement below was issued back in 2001 in response to a PBS series on evolution. Why do all these highly educated people essentially disagree with Jon? One glaring problem with your talking points is that you fail to point out the huge distinction between macro evolution and micro evolution. Yo...

Re: Miller-Urey and the origin of life
Hi Jon, here's a quote from Jerry Bergman that comes to mind in regard to your hypothesis of natural selection: "Natural selection would not evolve upward, for example, bacteria into humans, but at best would evolve simple bacteria into better adapted bacteria, or flies into better adapted flies. Th...
