|| By LEN ANTHONY || In 2012 after a forty-year hiatus from attending church I decided to give it another try. At the beginning of the sermon on my first Sunday back in a pew the pastor said “we here at the Antioch Church (not the real name of the church) believe the Bible is the true, inerrant word of God.” That struck me as odd. Modern physics, anthropology, archeology and DNA mapping, etc. make it clear that portions of the Bible are not true.

If you have listed Pride next to Humility that tells me you don’t have the will to explicate your train of thought.

Sorry, a bag of jelly beans is not an answer.

I’d be happy to engage you on this topic.

But, based on your prior posts I have the impression that you are a Calvinist.

I may be wrong.

Please advise.

Calminian?

A new term for me.

Free will vs. Gods plan.

I know what I’m supposed to do, but I still have a thousand ways to mess things up.

Can I be proud of my humility?

No.

Can I own truth?

Without being proud?

Can I be confident in my beliefs without expressing those beliefs in a way that isn’t obnoxious?

Entertaining my own temptations is not the same as actually committing adultery or being game to a no-fault divorce, but it is still wrong, and should be overcome.

He is citing from Old Testament law on slavery and it does NOT condone slavery...

Yes, the common apologetic is that God was making an allowance for slavery due to the wretchedly sinful nature of the people of the time. I suppose he would do the same today regarding abortion.

Len Anthony: The Bible is wrong on homosexuality,

Then Sodom and Gomorrah's apology will be forth coming from GOD any day now.


Genesis 13:13
Now the men of Sodom were wicked and were sinning greatly against the LORD.

Genesis 18:20-21
20. Then the LORD said, "The outcry against Sodom and Gomorrah is so great and
their sin so grievous
21. that I will go down and see if what they have done is as bad as the outcry that has reached me. If not, I will know."

Genesis 19:4-7
4. Before they had gone to bed, all the men
from every part of the city of Sodom--both young and old--surrounded the house.
5. They called to Lot, "Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us so that we can have sex with them
."
6. Lot went outside to meet them and shut the door behind him
7. and said, "No, my friends. Don't do this wicked thing.

Psalms 12:8 The wicked freely strut about when what is vile is honored among men.

Doonesbury Cartoon for Feb/08/2013

Isaiah 3:9 The look on their faces testifies against them; they parade their sin like Sodom; they do not hide it. Woe to them! They have brought disaster upon themselves.

2 Peter 2:13b Their idea of pleasure is to carouse in broad daylight. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their pleasures while they feast with you.


Ezekiel 16:49-50
49. "`Now this was the sin of your sister Sodom: She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed and unconcerned; they did not help the poor and needy.
50. They were haughty and did detestable things before me. Therefore I did away with them as you have seen.



2 Peter 2

1. But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them--bringing swift destruction on themselves.
2. Many will follow their shameful ways and will bring the way of truth into disrepute.
3. In their greed these teachers will exploit you with stories they have made up. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them, and their destruction has not been sleeping.
4. For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but sent them to hell, putting them into gloomy dungeons to be held for judgment;
5. if he did not spare the ancient world when he brought the flood on its ungodly people, but protected Noah, a preacher of righteousness, and seven others;
6. if he condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah by burning them to ashes, and made them an example of what is going to happen to the ungodly;
7. and if he rescued Lot, a righteous man, who was distressed by the filthy lives of lawless men
8. (for that righteous man, living among them day after day, was tormented in his righteous soul by the lawless deeds he saw and heard)--
9. if this is so, then the Lord knows how to rescue godly men from trials and to hold the unrighteous for the day of judgment, while continuing their punishment.
10. This is especially true of those who follow the corrupt desire of the sinful nature and despise authority. Bold and arrogant, these men are not afraid to slander celestial beings;
11. yet even angels, although they are stronger and more powerful, do not bring slanderous accusations against such beings in the presence of the Lord.
12. But these men blaspheme in matters they do not understand. They are like brute beasts, creatures of instinct, born only to be caught and destroyed, and like beasts they too will perish.
13. They will be paid back with harm for the harm they have done.
Their idea of pleasure is to carouse in broad daylight. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their pleasures while they feast with you.



But there IS hope!!!

1 Corinthians 6:9-11

9. Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived:
Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders
10. nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.
11. And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.


If you could NOT change, you would be in most pitiful shape...

However there are no existing original texts. Right? So there are errors, but God did not cause them.

Hello?

Did you REALLY mean to destroy your own argument?

How can you claim there are no errors with ZERO ways to prove this 'fact'?

a woman in one of my social groups said she quit going to the Baptist church because her niece wanted to be a minister but the church wouldn’t condone it.

I told her that it’s clear in the Bible what roles women have in the Church organization. They have important roles, but preaching isn’t one of them.

She said that if that’s the case, then the Bible is wrong.

I told her that God is probably kicking himself for not consulting with her before putting It all together. Maybe He will next time.

I plant little seeds of doubt with my libinlaws whenever “scientists” change their minds about reality.

So... if they can be wrong, they can be wrong now, and about other things as well, right?

That really is something sheeperals are not willing to admit because they always refer to “science” as their source authority.

Why’d you address this post to me? I started to reread the article, and I didn’t finish. The author’s a complete idiot. In the beginning, when he says physics, et al, have shown the Torah/Bible’s wrong about lots, I don’t know that’s true. Just wondering: do you know?
