The Neverending Story
An ongoing debate on Scripture, Tradition, History and Interpretation.


Statesmen may plan and speculate for liberty, but it is religion and morality alone which can establish the principles upon which freedom can securely stand. The only foundation of a free constitution is pure virtue. - John Adams

I just like the way the words stand out. What does it mean? Green would have been prettier though (my favorite color:'~)

the statistics aren't not pretty for BigMack's team

There's nothing worse than bad grammar to make a joke go flat.

"When atheists hate God, they hate this Calvinist conception. I was even told it was bad of me to think of God as a friend!"

There are many people of many denominations who would like to tell others how they should relate to God. That is a personal issue.

When I read through the Reform doctrine for the first time I saw nothing that I would disagree with. Quite frankly, what amazes me is this "cold and heartless" accusation in saying God is sovereign and is in control.

This “free will” morass the church has sunk into is nothing more than the Pelagius heresy the church fought since Augustine-apparently not very successfully. Man is in control-not God. It’s no wonder atheists prefer it over the Reform doctrine.

Definitely a right brain approach. Hard for us left-brainers to appreciate...

I find it's best to have people underestimate you. Some still scratching there heads about how Dubya got to the WH :')

I hate to butt in but we were not created for God's love. We were created for God's glory. Please consider:

Isa 43:7 "Everyone who is called by My name, And whom I have created for My glory, Whom I have formed, even whom I have made."

Why did Jesus have to die for man in order to get salvation?

Did you mistype here rest? Or do you really believe what you wrote here?

3588: Either I was unclear in my statement that Jesus was the only individual in the history of the world who could speak for God or you are simply being argumentative.

You were unclear. I had asked for further clarification and was met with "I'm not going to play your Q&A games."

Who's being argumentative here?

All you have to do is provide me with a post or two if you've already been over it and don't want to go through it again.

lol. My 3 y/o granddaughter. I'm in chat with my son . Remember a few weeks ago I was all mad because the navy Dr. put her on Ritlan and a blood pressure med for side effects? Well her mother refused to give it to her and the navy sent her to a specialist who told her to hold off on the meds and put her in a dance class or something to burn off energy. My dil said Sarah an angel and really snowed him and then threw a fit in the parking lot after they were down and was pointing her finger and saying "sit down" lol
