on the other hand, He does not tell us that Genesis is an abstract poem. For that matter, what would be the bloody point of Genesis if all it was was a pretty little poem and not true at all? Who said it's just 'abstract' and 'not true at all'? I for one think there is some very important instructi...

Also, about the miracles thing: maybe you noticed? miracles don't really happen today (except for those bleeding heart liberal preachers who pretend to do miracles on TV) That's really sad that you believe that. Miracles absolutely happen today. Completely agreed. By miracles , I mean events that t...

OK, EL, please clarify: You do not believe in consubstantiation, but transsubstantiation. however, you do not believe that the bread literally becomes flesh, it looks and tastes and feels and has the same chemical composition as bread, but is not bread? what? seems to me this gets into metaphysics. ...

Therefore, God would be lying to us if we try to think that God meant something other than what he says in Genesis. If the story of the Good Samaritan never historically happened, was Jesus' use of it a lie? absolutely not because He tells us it is a parable. on the other hand, He does not tell us ...

You say you believe in a God who made the whole world, out of nothing, in six days (but he made it look like 14 billion years for the heck of it). You say he exists outside of time and space. Presumably you believe in the miracle of the loaves and the fishes. But you can't swallow that he could wor...

EL. I do know him very well. he is my father. reguardless, he makes a good point. I showed him this forum because along with being an EG fan, he is more educated than I in theology. Taal: This is why I study Latin, why my father learned Greek: so we could know the scriptures in as pue a form as poss...

Rei: Please continue reading. He clearly referrs to the manna in the desert, also, as His flesh, and therefore, he clearly does not mean His literal flesh and blood, which would be cannibalistic. Also, remember (what is it, Hebrews? Corinthians?) the story of th Final Passover, where Christ took bre...

If I remember correctly, someone here named Luther something... Luther95. He quoted some scripture which were examples of how Christ Himself took the scriptures literally. God never gives us any reason to believe differently than what He said, so all that temple allegory and such is pretty much just...

I think Peter placed himself in the highest position because he was the only one available to do it. He had influence from his Locke persona, which no battle school graduate had. He also did not have an overdeveloped ego like Achilles did. (though he was a bit arrogant at times) Achilles used corrup...

Jotabe: I was taught that according to big bang theory, the universe existed in an infinitesimally small point, which was almost pure energy. that this energy, when it could be contained no longer, shot the universe out into existence, converting to large amounts of matter in the process. If this is...

God created men who were predestined to do evil and go to Hell so that he could be further glorified. Who could know light without dark; who could know God's true holiness without evil? If God really were ABSOLUTELY just, EVERYBODY would go to Hell, no exceptions. According to you, God himself woul...

I have studied TOE and the physics related to it. I have also studied the physics of the Big Bang theory. Correct me if I'm wrong: I thought in the B.B., that there was no matter until the inflation; that everything was purely energy. correct? I do not recall ever studying any theories about anythin...

I could simply point out that life isn't fair, but I suppose that would be deflecting the question.

seems we posted around the same time; see my previous post. If God wished all men to go to heaven, then they would. He is all powerful, and he has no reason to do what he does not wish to do. Unfortunately, he doesn't reveal enough of Himself in nature, it seems, because so many people believe He di...

Oops. My apologies, Jayelle. You're right, it doesn't say anything about Christ collecting people like Abraham and Adam from Hell. I guess, then, that because the content of Faith was different before the time of Christ, that believing that Christ died for their sins was not a requirement for being ...

God is neither good nor evil. well... not much to say to that except how woefully wrong it is. You are right about God having no equal or counterpart, however. Michael is, like you said, probably the closest counterpart to Satan that you can find. In a certain sence, Hell is the absence of God in t...
