The PP may be compared to Paul's reasoning with the Athenians in Acts 17:24-34: “The God who made the world and everything in it is the Lord of heaven and earth and does not live in temples built by human hands. 25 And he is not served by human hands, as if he needed anything. Rather, he...

Okay, here goes: MT 5:44-45, But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, 45 that you may be children of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. MT 5:48, Be perfect, therefore, as...

The NT is mainly concerned with how to be saved and behave, but are there any teachings that are relevant for social policy? Jesus once stated that “the poor you will always have with you” (MT 26:11). However, He also taught us to “give to the poor” (MT 19:21). These verses suggest that we...

Since it is so easy I will just let y'all do it, but thanks. (My eyes glazed over at "formats" and I have no idea where those posts are.)

Okay, what do you want me to do exactly?

Regarding the Easter story, per Luke two angels appeared to the women as they visited Jesus' open tomb (LK 24:4&23), but the HS (who had made Mary pregnant in 1:35 and revealed Jesus was Messiah to Simeon in 2:25-27) was not manifested until the day of Pentecost (ACTS 2:4). (Angels announced...

It is ruder of you to ask for Scripture you should know by heart by now and know they mean God loves everyone even His enemies, chief of whom would be Satan.

I have been sharing GW about GL ad nauseum, but here are some again: MT 5:44&48, 22:37-40, JN 3:16, RM 5:6-8, 1TM 2:3-4, 1JN 4:7-21. I know, I know, they aren't in blue and they don't say exactly "God's love is unconditional", so sue me. You really ought to be going the second mile by now...

All lives matter, and all tenses matter. (Not sure about when we get to heaven :^)

Okay, close enough to "eternal life in heaven", so I don't know why you made an issue of the exact phrase as though you were a Sadducee.

Another thread about Apologetics explains why Christian theism is the best belief or most logical answer to truthseekers’ questions concerning ultimate reality, because the New Testament (NT) God provides the only credible hope for attaining heaven and justice, the “duo of desirables” (DOD). The...

Perhaps that analogy is comparable to that of the one set of footprints in the sand: I dreamed I was walking along the beach with the Lord, and when I looked back at the footprints in the sand, I noticed that at the lowest and saddest times in my life, there was only one set of footprints, and...

Okay, so adding what you just said to my previous understanding, you believe the saved will be resurrected physically to rule with Christ on this new unheavenly earth for 1,000 years and then have access to the tree of life so they will continue to live on the new earth, which is a different...

This work is described in John as reproving the world of sin by exposing evil to the light of righteousness and judgment (JN 16:8, 3:20). And this light signifies the words of God’s Spirit, which give life (JN 6:63); the Spirit of truth, which testifies that Jesus is Messiah (JN 15:26) or...

On the contrary, the unique universe theory is one of the main evidences being used/cited in arguments by Christian apologists. Atheists hoped scientific evidence would support an oscillating universe, but they have failed to prove that is the fact.

Yes, and everyone listened to the Top 40 on KOMA, but the world fractured during the LBJ fiasco following the end of Camelot. I hope God is working through MAGA to restore the good old days for the next generation.

So, I understand you to believe that those who are saved will be resurrected physically to rule with Christ on this new unheavenly earth for 1,000 years and then die. Correct?

Well, I doubt there are any Sadducee Christians!

I thought you were a Christian! What is your belief--for the third time?

Also see MT 25:46, 22:29-32, 1PT 1:4, HB 9:15, COL 3:1-4-- but why am I bothering to list anything more than 1CR 15:19? You are a Sadducee?!
