Since the conversation is spinning a little from the main topic, I am willing to talk a little more about the age of the world. I think we've sorted out that since the creation of the world (on day one), it went six normal 24-hour days, and that Adam was created on the sixth day. This of course...

I think talking and reading in the Bible would be good enough for a proper conversion therapy today, and all methods would of course have to be cleared with the patient first. If would be impossible to convert someone who doesn't want to get converted (in my opinion). If someone uses the methods...

Girls - look for a partner with good looks and much money. Christian dudes are not cool, because they will not join on all the fun stuff:geek:

True, and still Jesus also gives this command: Mark 16,16: He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. The ones who "believeth on Jesus", will then also let themselves be baptized in the church of God - will they not?

Yes, I am aware that God "gives them up", and therefore it would not be appropriate to "convert" them from their sins, if they weren't asking for it - but say one of them comes back and asks to get rid of this temptation - should it be illegal to help them? Should we send our priests to jail...

You say "there are no perfect churches" - but if we read the three chapters you are referring to, you see that God corrects only five of them: - Ephesus, Pergamos, Thyatira, Sardis and Laodicea. Smyrna and Philadelphia is doing the right thing, and is accepted by God. The five who are corrected...

Currently there is a debate in the Norwegian government, whether it will be prohibited or still allowed to run conversion therapy in the country. The suggestion is 3-6 years of jail time for those who run such a conversion therapy, when they are trying to save gay people from going to Hell. This...

Watch the telly all day long, and don't open your Bible.

Can you prove these statements with citations from the Bible? Just to take the first one - I know of places in the Bible that says you should go get baptized. Where does the Bible tell about Salvation outside of the baptism?

In my opinion the real question here is not whether it is sin to divorce or not - but rather if it is allowed for a man today to find himself a new wife, when the old one still lives. The answer is no. If he parts from his current wife, he lives in sin if he finds himself a new one. But when she...

God does not want us to divorce. He wants man and woman to live together - and since the new testament, the rule is this: If they do divorce, they are doing a sin. Proof: Matt 19,6: Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put...

Blik - God does (since Moses) allow divorce in The Old Testament. Deu 24,1: When a man hath taken a wife, and married her, and it come to pass that she find no favour in his eyes, because he hath found some uncleanness in her: then let him write her a bill of divorcement, and give it in her...
