Ah the Romans, those never ending fount of schism and confusion. You for to love them, but only because we’re commanded to….

Thanks for the testimony, @Joleneakamama. Looking at the uses of the word abomination throughout Proverbs is quite insightful. During our Bible reading time in Proverbs this morning I highlighted the severity of the condemnation on those engaged...

You and I both brother!!!

I love Gods Word. The entire thing. I am taken by the sheer practicality of the Proverbs and the praise of the Psalms, the dejection of the Lamentations, the warnings of the Prophets, the poetry and desperation of the Songs, the societal...

I am doubtful that you will get a tax write off, but yes! Do donate to this ministry as the Lord lays it on your heart to do so!

Thanks again all for your wisdom and Biblical version references. I swear I don't know why I'm giving contributions to the church. I should be sending you guys and gals the money instead. I'm getting more Biblical teaching here than anywhere...

I don't have an NIV myself, but if someone does can they check Mark 9:29? It says almost exactly the same thing and doesn't have any questions of authenticity. Its actually a major reason they decided to keep 17:21 in the KJV (its a parallel...

The moment translators move away from trying to do a word-for-word translation, the truth suffers. Those that intentionally go down the dynamic equivalence road are substituting their personal interpretation for what stands written, in reality...

The burden of proof is on the one making the assertion. I am always willing to challenge someone to show me where it says that polygyny is wrong, but when they come back with a verse that does not say so, I glady point i tout to them. The fallacy...

Okay, let’s end this. A number of men think that I am a terrible moderator and a worse person. They are partially right, but you get the moderator you deserve. We had a thoughtful, empathetic moderator and he was so stressed out that he had lead...

Yes, most of us understand practicality. I certainly do. But, the problem becomes when it goes beyond practicality and seeps into supremacy.

I’m not sure who this is in reference to but you’re still missing the point. Neither the moderators nor the owners are explicitly calling anyone a heretic. It’s the inevitable course that certain topics will take that is of concern. If those...

If the Word of God speaks to the person's heart, so be it. I didn't say anything.
