Churches without pastors.

I am posting the following for a friend who attends the same church as I. Our church is small and has had declining attendance. The church members may no longer be able to support the pastor.

The present problems I am aware of are: 1. Some users cannot log in and/or new accounts cannot be created. 2. Some pos...

Re: Is it rational to believe in IC?

3. If they WERE inspired by God to select the contents of the Canon, then there IS inspiration outside the Canon, and IC is therefore false. Taking the definition of IC exactly you have defined it, I agree that you found a valid proof the IC is false. However, I think one could take the position th...

Steve, Thanks very much for taking the time to answer. It is a much more well thought out answer than I realized the first time I read through it. I am at the disadvantage of not knowing any Hebrew.
