(And quite well; too!!)
Hopefully a typo!
Why.... thank you.....
Abraham had a child through Hagar when married to Sarah.
Was this approved by God?
Who laughed?
Yeah ignoring the Bible qualifies as a dodge.
There is no mention of a Dodge in the Bible.
There are mentions of a Plymouth and a Honda though.
Here's a Biblical question for you:
Who were the shortest people mentioned in the Bible?
Well some are considered secong class Christians (huh?) referred to condescendingly as "separated brethren."
Jesus disagrees.
Pride has interesting results in a person's life.
More tabloid trash linked above.
Priests are bucking Catholic Church leadership to support same-sex marriage in IrelandValid or invalid?
I would hope so, Elsie. But I wanted it clarified for two reasons:
1) For the poster personally, if it’s actually what he believes, because it goes against the Word and would be a dreadful burden to carry; and
2) For any believer not well-versed in the Holy Bible (admitting, by the way, that I have barely begun to scratch the surface and don’t believe that several lifetimes would suffice to plumb all the riches contained therein), but particularly and especially for new believers just starting their journey with Christ and through His Word.
I didn’t want to leave it just hanging out there without refutation in fear that some might walk away with a false belief causing great harm, heartache and discouragement. Seems to be enough of that already.
Blessings, Elsie.
Don't forget the also totally un-Biblical rule that all Christians--in fact ALL people--MUST be in submission to the leader of Catholicism, your Pope.
Christians are in submission to out Saviour, Jesus Christ.
By the way posting that someone is a Catholic when they are not is considering mindreading.
That is, according to the RM, mindreading which is making it personal.
Only God can know a person's heart, not random members here at FR.
.....as are ALL Christians
I suggest you do a study in the NT on how one becomes a Christian.
It may surprise you.
Hint: it isn't a brand (mark) seared into a person at infant or adult "baptism." Quote marks around baptism as infant "baptism" isn't Biblical baptism.
It might be more interesting if you were to say what you think he is saying.
How do you interpret it?
I didn’t understand it all, GBA. Hence, the request for elaboration.
What say you to comment?
I read (KJB) 1 Corinthians 15:18-19: “Then they also which are fallen asleep in Christ are perished.”
Before that, however, verses 13-17: “But if there be no resurrection of the dead, then is Christ not risen. And if Christ be not risen, then is our preaching in vain, and your faith is also in vain. Yea, and we are found false witnesses of God; because we have testified of God that he raised up Christ: whom he raised not up, if so be that the dead rise not. For if the dead rise not, then is not Christ raised: And if Christ be not raised, your faith is vain; ye are yet in your sins.”
Inadvertently left off verse 19. My apologies.
15:19 If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable.
But most importantly:
15:20 But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept.
15:21 For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead.
15:22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.
I say: Thanks for clarifying that for me!
It was my pleasure, GBA. Quoting His word, sharing His promises to those who put their faith in Him, and perhaps blessing a passerby in the process with the assurance He gives to those in Him is always a blessing!
So, thank you!
I asked first. Nice try at dodging.
Do you EVER follow your own suggestions?
As often as you say something intelligent.
Place Mark
You never responded to post 606.
Keep asking if you want.
Although your answer:
I asked first. Nice try at dodging.
Was to my question:
You asked that first?
Priests are bucking Catholic Church leadership to support same-sex marriage in IrelandValid or invalid?
Well, that's good!
Again, your posts contain a preponderance of strawman questions and statements.
I don't bite on bait.
