Ya, I've broken the K.I.S.S. rule a few times. (Keep It Simple Saints)

I fully realize fellowship, original sin, total depravity, and Sacraments are minority views in Christianity. Does that mean those who deny these things are damned? Certainly not (Mark 16:16). We...

2. Mello sucks. He is the definition of a 'volume shooter'. He can really shoot though...
3. Yes, God gives us in Scripture enough to understand (certainly not all)...

oops

For the tenth time, exegesis between us is impossible, we are from different planets. I don't mean this as a personal attack, just a statement of facts. You believe man has the right, ability, and...

I thought you said you posted your last. Hmmm.

I thought you said you agreed with my points 1,2, and 3. Hmmm

It will be impossible for anyone standing on the earth to miss Christ's second coming:

Is 40:5, And the glory of the LORD will be revealed, and all mankind together will see it.

This Scripture interprets itself principle(vs. man interprets) isn't complicated at all:
BTW, what did Christ use to defend Himself when He was tempted 3 times in the desert? Satan even used (cited)...

Don't buy the "last domino to fall is the Gospel" comment? Listen to the liberal/progressive/heterodox churches. Plenty online. They choose to reinterpret Scripture. What you will hear in their...

Christians are simultaneously saint and sinner. Yes, Christians have a new spiritual heart given to them by God (Ezekiel 36:26) yet they die (result of sin). "Wages of sin is death" Rom 6:23a (Law)....

Now I'm more confused--that's saying something. Are you doing a John Kerry, "I voted for it before I voted against it."?

Once again, I should have been more precise: original texts. 1. That's why its good to have a parallel bible and compare translations (unless a person speaks fluent Hebrew and ancient Greek--most of...

Dodging again.
1. Scripture is divinely inspired and therefore inerrant and infallible (T/F).
2. Divinely inspired is a long way from inspired. (Only divinely inspired used in spiritual matters)...

Here's the crux. The basis for any discussion must be common language. If we are not in agreement/fellowship then we define terms/principles differently (some or all). Ok, let's talk about John...

"Trinity" is not mentioned in Scripture either. Yet, we're all Trinitartians--I think. The principle(s) for the Trinity are laid down in Scripture, as is Sola Scriptura. The Reformation didn't just...

Sola Scriptura is not a man made principle. Ezk 13:1-3, 1Cor4:6, 2Pet1:20-21,Ps 119:105, Pr 6:23, Jn 8:31-32, 14:15, 17:17, Eph 2:20, 2Jn1:9

Scripture is divinely inspired, it must be infallible...

Well, I'm back. I'm an amillenialist. Hope that's spelled right. Christ will show up and that will be that. No one will miss it. Everyone will be judged. I use future tense because if He returned...

Joesephus was not divinely inspired.

I'll back up my comments about "Last Days" on Monday with Scripture. Got to go.

"Sanctify (make holy) them by the truth; Your word is truth." John 17:17

I should have been more precise. The last days started over 2000 years ago--and we're still in them.

When Christ returns for the Second Coming, no one will miss it. Even the guy in the deepest...

The 'last days' started about 2000 years ago.

2 Pet 3:8b, "With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years like a day."

v10 "but the day of the Lord will come like a thief."...

Libs and government are fully capable of obfuscating the truth and/or hiding their intentions. Example:

Libs (in and out of government), "We don't want to take away your guns." John Paul Stevens...

The church in North America (the only one I'm familiar with) tends to go light on the Law--tough on attendance. Focusing on the Law makes the Gospel all the sweeter. Punting the Law suggests no need...
