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 ...

Planning to make a game?

I really have no clue. To learn something like that, get the Enderverse Companion. I don't have it, but it should give you the answers you need.

I say it sounds like consubstantiation because (Lutherans?) believe that Christ is present in, on, and around the elements. this is what that sounded like, that's all

I'm losing best noobie. darn. I suppose that makes sense, though considering how many people I antagonize on Religion and Moral philosophy.

Crazy Tom: C Toon

Ok, i'm back.

God forbids us to deceive; it is one of the Ten commandments. To deceive is to say one thing, but mean another (without distinguishing the two). Therefore, God would be lying to us if we try to think that God meant something other than what he says in Genesis.

OK, I get all that. did nobody watch that movie that I posted? I think he does a pretty good job of explaining things.

You keep saying that to interpret literally is to make God a liar. I think that to interpret it any way other than literally makes Him an even worse liar.

ill post later

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...

Well if I say "That is stupid", thats three words too, right? and If I say, "Anyone can make stuff like this up" that's 7 words!! wow! I must be divinely inspired! That movie is so ludicrous. It was good until he got to the numerology, then it got ridiculous. to answer, here is K...

Luke 22, 1 Corinthians 11, Hebrews 9. All mention the passage of the Final Pasover, where Christ specifically says that he took bread saying "THIS IS MY BODY, WHICH I GIVE TO YOU, do this in rememberance of me," etc. etc. Christ took his literal body into heaven when he resurrected; how co...

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.

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...

Please clarify.

Crazy Tom: C Toon

From all your talk about my "interpretations" as you call them, you clearly did not go and read Ephesians like I requested. Paul is very clear and precise on this subject. Also, EL, please point out the part where it says that only Christ's literal flesh and blood is capable of removing sin.

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...

about Peter, see my reply in your thread, petra. As to the rest, just because the adults were stupid doesn't mean he has to kill them. Peter managed without killing the preceeding Hegemon or their rulers. he did it the good way. If Peter had done the "dirty work" as you say, he would have ...

Crazy Tom: C Toon

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...

Meaning you do not believe in Creation as God Himself told it? if so, then yes, you apparently don't truly believe in Him because if you did, you would believe and defend what He told us.

I wasn't sure if you understod me because you started talking about how all mankind was His "children" again. I see why you look upon my view with disfavor, but that it the way the Bible says that it works, and as long as you view us (mankind) as God's totally unable creation rather than a...

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?

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.

Nice Paradise Lost quote. very fitting. This also brings to Mind Marlowe's Dr. Faustus : "Why, this is Hell, nor am I out of it." ~ Mephastopholes (spelling?) to Faustus concerning how Mephastopholes got out of Hell to help Faustus. I wonder what the "Holy and good" God was think...

I don't actually fear death, and I discovered this when I actually thought I had died. (I suspected so before, but I had no way to prove it until I died in my dream.)

Death doesn't worry me, and I don't really think about it except when I recall these dreams.

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...

It is wrong because He is perfectly Holy and good.

Yes, they do feel his damnation and not his grace.

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...

That point is also straight from the Bible. Just because I disagree with Catholics doesn't mean they don't have some points of truth, like this and the Doctrine of the Trinity, etc.
