The book of Revelation opens and closes with statements saying the events described in its revelation were going to happen quickly because the time was then at hand. Do you read those words literally, as written, with the ordinary meaning of those words in normal usage? Or do you make them...

No, just drawing attention to the fact you're off-topic and trolling. Happens A LOT in this board. You are on record making self-contradictory claims. You're on record abusing scripture. You're on record hijacking your brothers op, and apparently for the sole purpose of making someone look...

What's the topic of this op?

My response to that, as a monergist, is to say those particular Calvinists who believe the second question is answerable in the affirmative do not correctly and adequately understand Calvinism. BUT I also think there is a problem of ambiguity contained in the question. What, exactly, is meant by...

Does not appear to be so in this New York case. If it were otherwise, then we'd have an indictment.

Curious response. It implies ill intent on the part of others, and does so presumptively, AND in spite of acknowledging the question is interesting. Ironic since you're one of the most dismissive posters I've engaged in CARM. Even when I agree with you! Evidence to that effect can be found...

Well, aside from the fact you've just contradicted yourself.... God is a God of reason. Not only is God a God of reason, He invites us to reason with Him, and He does so in the books of the prophets (Isa. 1:18). Both Moses and Paul (both prophets) implicitly and explicitly spoke about false...

Absurdly so. I wonder if Trump's prediction of arrest wasn't intended. Was he trying to get ahead of any indictment, highlight the ideological foolishness of the persecutor (er, I mean, prosecutor), and draw attention to himself (again)? Let's face it, whether you like the guy or not, he's a...

LOL! Now you know why I rarely visit this board. 😵‍💫 None of this prosecutor's efforts will have any substantive or long-term effect unless a felony conviction is obtained (a misdemeanor conviction) will be meaningless) and that is unlikely. Millions of tax-payer dollars will be spent in a...

Josheb said: The first mention of the covenant with Abraham we have is in Genesis 15. Your own post proves you wrong. There is no mention of "covenant" in Genesis 12. The existence of a covenant is being inferred because of God tells Abram to leave so God can show him some land and Abram...

No, there's no logic to that goal-post moving abuse of Luke. Jesus fulfilled the prophet's prophecies, even those of the prophets who lived after Calvary and one of them plainly stated anyone preaching a different gospel was cursed. Galatians 1:8-9 But even if we, or an angel from heaven...

Do you have any clue what is the one single point in dispute? I ask because it looks like you're making my case and if so then this post should have been directed to Leatherneck. Yep. Yep. Change of topic. That statement is also incorrect but I'm not going to collaborate with a change of...

There is no covenant mentioned in Genesis 12. It is a presumption on your part that the covenant existed in Genesis 12. That assumption is added absent any statement in the text supporting that position. There are no "terms" mentioned in Genesis 12. Leave Ur and go to a land I'll show you...

The evidence of scripture proves otherwise. Let the record show no proof the covenant was a two-way obligation was provided and in the end the refusal to do so was attributed to... I stuck to scripture. No "labels." You were the guy appealing to secular definitions of terms, adding and...

False dichotomy. An attempt does not preclude failure. Both are simultaneously possible Red herring. Which necessarily implies you don't subscribe to any method of understanding scripture. Even if you say, "I subscribe to my own," that would be a system. The odd reality is the precepts of...

I've already covered every bit of that post. Why are you still arguing? Why is what was posted being ignored? Why are you inserting the word "confirmed" in opposition to the facts of scripture when the scripture plainly states the covenant was made in Genesis 15? Why are you trying to find a way...

Hmmm.... So your belief in God is speculation.

false cause fallacy false cause fallacy factually false statement factually false statement only true statement so far, but because not all do it any generalization from "some" to "all" is a construction error, a composition fallacy. Then why are you here? Given the abundance of errors...

Got scripture for that? Or is it that saved people are the one repenting? The only folks in scripture I see even trying to change their ways are those in whom God is working and NOT those attempting to do so in their flesh.

None. There were no denominations when Acts was written. There were the seeds of secatarianism and what we now call "denominations" existing in the NT era, but they did not look like what we now possess. We see these seeds, or origins, first in Paul's commentary about thos who claimed to...
