Hi, the way c0de has explained it is also the way I have heard it explained for Genesis. Joe

Hi juantoo3, So what we are to discuss here are ideas that are seen as valid but perhaps can be seen in different light. It's the different "shades of light" validated through the eyes of an scholarly expert that can be brought to the table here. So it's more like being taught something in a...

Hi Thomas, So where do you suppose we should start? Use the somewhat non-authoritative words of Scripture or the somewhat non-authoritative words of men? Joe

Hi juantoo3, So ah, if there is no quote from a person with scholarly renown then your pov is discounted or considered false, even though that person (scholar) might exist. So this would be a board for discussing the ideas and opinion of only scholarly folks I guess. Joe

Hi, In my experience I'd have to say that the goal of most scripture in any faith is to raise conscience "up a notch". So I agree with what Nick_A has to say, but maybe not with the wording. ( that is if I actually have an understanding of what Nick_A did say) juantoo3 I think you would also...

Hi juantoo3, I was under the impression that Zargon Theisis was just a small part of that greater body of work we know as Thomasonian Thought. A quick run down Google street and a side trip to Wiki seems to indicate that this is a one man revelation. The actual work itself has never been...

Hi Thomas, The literalist responds: From the NASB Mark 11:22-25 22: And Jesus answered saying to them, "Have faith in God" 23: "Truly I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, 'Be taken up and cast into the sea,' and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that what he says is going to...

Hi Thomas, Well what are you trying to do with your thesis? Create a new religion with your own followers? Just giving answers for some troubling questions? Are you just another crackpot spouting out more "facts" to mislead anyone easily enough to be persuaded by them? With out some kind...

Hi AJA1984

Hi Thomas, Well, well, well there is more to the story! I haven't read anything about this, care to share where you got this info? Joe

Hi Q, Hey Quahom1 I've read this a bunch of times and am still digging it. Thanks for putting it together. Joe

HI Q, Very interesting thought. This spirit of life, do you think it is an individual spirit or a shared spirit for everyone? And as for the afterlife, the same question, the same spirit or a shared spirit? Joe

Hi lunamoth, I have to confess that I don't have any wonderful theology books to quote from, but if you read 1John 1-3 I think he agrees with you. Joe

Hi Thomas, All though I can see the point that you imply here this is an extremely loose association of NT quotes. I would have thought that John 3:5 was taught for a individual that had reached a certain age. I don't think "children" as a group have the mental awareness of a need to be "born...

Hi seattlegal, You guys were right, she is a witch!

Hi Thomas, I agree with most of what you have said. And yes for example, when discussing things Catholic, only things that are part of Catholic doctrine should be part of the discussion here. And for this part of the forum that would be true for any other religion or sect of a religion...

Hi, With all due respect to all who have labored and studied and researched and dug through all the piles of evidence looking for "truth" in their respective theology, when all is said and done, ALL findings, references, documents and revelations are OPINION. Isn't G!D is an experience? You...

Hey I'll be more than happy to have the cake! thanks! Joe

Hi saddha, Can you share more info on this Melchizedek. The Bible does not contain much background on who he was and why he is so important. thanks, Joe

Hi Mr. Tao, This is by far a more eloquent way to express what I was thinking. Thanks Netti-Netti. Joe
