    1 Cor. 3.18

    This happens in reality all the times. The wise on earth think that humans need evidence to get to a truth. But in reality humans only need faith to get to a truth, even in terms of science. That's how 99% humans who know for a fact that black holes exist don't actually have the evidence. To...

    Essene Influence in Early Christianity

    I think you need to first distinguish between the Written Law and the Oral Law. Sadducees actually limit their acceptance to the Written Law (i.e., only the first 5 books of today's OT Bible). Second, you may need to read more about Jewish history such as written by Josephus. Acts mentioned an...

    Essene Influence in Early Christianity

    Why Essenes are not even mentioned in the Bible. It's because theologically they are irrelevant. Why the Jews never had a Bible (Canon) with only 5 books. it's because theologically the Sadducees are irrelevant. Pharisees are accountable for almost all theological views mentioned in the Bible...

    Salvation and Belief

    That's why the Bible is following a process which is called human witnessing. This same process is employed literally in conveying any kind of truth, including science. We rely on the credibility of an eyewitness account to put faith in order to reach a truth. Our scientists act as an...

    What are we to make of the book of Job?

    It's always a game between God and Satan that it may at any point go out of the comprehension of humans. Job is not a usual person. God revealed Himself to Job. Job is thus a witness. Now 10 out of 11 direct disciples of Jesus martyred themselves. Do they actually know why they have to be...

    God Did Not Write the Bible

    The point is rather what else can be done in your opinion. Do you happen to know how humans keep records of our own history? This is basically the best humans can do, that is, without applying a double standard. No human books can be written in a better way, in terms of human...

    What was the livelyhood of Jesus and his near fellows?

    Jesus didn't lose connection with the rich. His followers are usually the poor though. I forgot the source but I barely remember that the wife of Pilate is a supporter of Jesus.

    Do you know the truth about hell?

    I don't see the difference here. Truth can exist beyond our comprehension, this is a fact. Our reality is a 3D time-space. Quantum physics and string theory suggest that things can exist outside of our reality (our 3D environment). If that's what you want! You are trying to sound as if there's...

    Branches of Judaism

    I am curious. How many Jews, Orthodox or not, are circumcised and still practicing circumcision on the eighth day of birth?

    Do you know the truth about hell?

    Since when black holes are demonstratable and evidenced to humans in stone age? Do you mean that the truth of the existence of black holes doesn't exist in stone age? Truth can be independent of human knowledge. It boils down to how humans reach that truth. Hell (if exists) to today's humans...

    Do you know the truth about hell?

    No, that's not even what the Jewish origin is. The following is for the Jewish historian living around/after Jesus' time. By Flavius Josephus the Pharisee. 2. In this region there is a certain place set apart, as a lake of unquenchable fire, whereinto we suppose no one hath hitherto been...

    Can the Soul die?

    Only God can put a soul to vanish. But God won't do that without a reason.

    Do you know the truth about hell?

    if a human is designed to live an eternity. His body cannot be served as an permanent ID, as when a body decays the continuity of the 'he' will be lost. Only a soul can play the role of an eternal ID. A body is just the image of a human. The soul is the true ID disregarding how many times you...

    If You Were God

    I would try to establish a Kingdom where I would be living with my creations (those with or without intelligence and freewill). It would be a place everyone would feel comfortable to live eternally since I am supposed to be a god of eternity. The special measure will have to be take to tackle...

    The Creation of Evil

    Not necessarily. Isaiah said that the lions in the future won't bite. Presumably every animal may feed on plants. Humans ate plants/vegetables. They started to eat meat after being driven out of Eden and left alone in a world which God no longer maintains. It's the lack of maintenance that thing...
