This reminds me of one of my favorite Bible passages where Moses boldly asks God to allow him to see His glory... and God replies that no man can see His glory and live, but He instead compromises with Moses and hides him in a crevice of a rock and causes the "back" of His glory to pass Moses by...

Yes, excellent question and choice of Bible verse!!! Funny, but after I wrote my response above ^^ to Haich (at 2:45 am no less I really hope he appreciates my lost beauty sleep sacrificed to sincerely answer his question!).....I went to bed and this exact verse from Romans was running through...

Hi, Sorry, but these ongoing topics can be overwhelming in their sheer volume, so sometimes I have to take a break for a day or two and walk around in the sunshine instead of sitting at my computer or on my phone typing away. Anyway, to answer your questions above: If a person TRULY accepts...

OK, even though I’m “a newbie“ I have seen enough of your posts to know that you are sufficiently intelligent. I have to finish my work day here, but I know you understand just because we believe on Christ and our sins are forgiven that doesn’t mean that the rebellious nature we were born with...

First off, I thought that you said I was “a troll” and you asked me to stop engaging with you, LOL. Perhaps you have “forgiven“ me and we can move past that. Please go back and reread my post above. I clearly said that upon acceptance of Christ you unfortunately don’t stop sinning... Why would...

Well, you are right and you are wrong. You are oversimplifying and over-exaggerating in this example. However, I will assume your question is sincere and so I will address it: Over and over in the Bible there are many verses which make it clear that God does not look at the outside of a person...

Sorry, this is wrong ^^^ Jacob did indeed wrestle with God Himself...likely the "angel of The LORD" mentioned throughout the OT (which most Biblical scholars agree is another name for Christ....and no, not Dave from Skipton). IsraEL does mean "wrestles with God", and it means it literally. In...

Wow, "Mr Aspiring Soul" is sooooo angry. What in the world is he aspiring to, I wonder?? (Strictly rhetorical question here, so please don't bother answering, A.S.) Just a small sampling of the type of nasty and childish posts this person specializes in (as seen above). I have read and...

Thanks for this insightful post. I joined these discussions with a genuine interest in sharing my Christian faith (without being condescending or insulting) and also to be able to ask questions to understand others' points of view....particularly Muslims. Despite studying the Bible in depth for...

Okey dokey, then!! I can assure you I'm no troll....and I took the time to answer several of your posts and a couple questions on earlier threads with RESPECTFUL and logical answers...my bad, I sincerely thought the point of your posts was for all to engage, even when we disagree. You asked...

Yes, without question ^^ opiates are a biiiig gateway to demonic influence, as is immoral sex. Not just homosexual, but ANY immoral sex, and the more deviant it is, the more it is "in tune" with demonic influences. Which is why we see so much of it glorified and now poisoning popular culture...

"Everyone did that which was right in his own eyes..." Judges 21:25 Not a good place to be in!!

Ok, fair enough. If that's where you are stuck, then that's your choice. I didn't address the question about Satan or the prophets, because they are secondary to the question of "what about my sin??" I did answer your resurrection question: no one gets resurrected or can stand in the...

ADDED: Because God is both LOVING and JUST, He requires a just penalty for our sins. This is true in the human world - when you break a law, there is a penalty associated with that, otherwise, it would b chaos. Unlike mankind's laws, which have different penalties associated with various...

The problem with this thinking is that it is dependent upon ME and MY ability. I am no doubt a sinner who calls on God for forgiveness, grace and mercy daily. I also have the peace of knowing that Jesus has paid my sin debt - one I am too morally bankrupt to pay - once, and for all. My...

Jesus WAS born, and he did in fact die, then rose again on the third day. I don't know how much you know of the Bible, but it teaches that Jesus was fully God and fully man, which was necessary because only a man could offer the pay the sin debt of mankind, yet only God Himself, sinless and...

OK, sorry if you find my response unclear: let me try again: The water reference is just a simple alliteration for discussion sake, not meant to be taken literally. Again, the key word is "eternal". The eternal Father has always existed with the eternal Son, and the eternal Holy Spirit, as...

Please see my reference to the eternal Father begetting the eternal Son, who begets the eternal Holy Spirit, to understand that all three forms exist simultaneously, not one after the other. Key word in sentence = eternal, meaning always has/will exist, none were "created". The water reference...

No, not necessarily "issues" with your resources, I just can't take the time to watch a 30 minute video, PLUS the time to respond here.... As it were, you have certainly studied your Qu'ran, as I have studied my Bible. Therefore, let us simply share what the texts state regarding topics that...

OK, I appreciate your willingness to respond, but may I ask that you don't simply look up others' material and then just cut and paste it here? Number one, it is too long to read (I do have a job and a life outside this forum), and number two, it makes it much harder for "you and I" to just...
