I have similar ideas about why God confused the languages. God's plan was for the people to spread out as the population grew. The people had a different idea. They wanted to always have contact. This was why they planned for the tower to be very tall. It was their thoughts for it to rise above...

My post above was an attempt to explain God's plan of salvation. It was not meant to explain HOW WE ARE SAVED... that answer is: Through the works of Christ on our behalf. We must accept him as our Lord and Savior ... by faith. Jesus said we should repent - IOW go and sin no more. Now, we all...

I can think of a list that can be added. Still mulling over the names that would be on it.

My post just above is not about any coding system ... nor about the meaning of a particular number ... but is about patterns and the use of symbolism in scripture. Such as: The meaning of the ROCK at Horeb. The meaning when Moses struck the ROCK twice and said, "Must WE provide the WATER?" I...

God used many things to preview the future for mankind. He used the prophets of course. He used dreams... but he also used types and shadows for things. Sometimes these types and shadows were lived out in the lives of chosen people as with Abraham and Isaac. Other times these types and shadows...

True ... but I didn't say that believing that we have ONE God was the last of my beliefs ... I said it was foundational... and other things much build upon that truth. I believe the trinity is for real ... and only God can accomplish such a feat. I do worship My Lord Jesus as my Savior... for...

Well, someone needs to tell a lot of Catholics the truth about abortion and the Democratic Party. I know Catholics that are very pro-life and know some who are very pro-abortion. Personally, I think the pro-life Catholics have a better chance of Heaven than the others, but I always admit that...

rainee, I wish you were still around. I've been back to visit TOL a number of times just to find you and have a conversation. I don't know where you are, but I pray God has bless you mightily. I didn't make any of those lists either. I also think that is a good thing.

I remember ... rainee. We had some nice conversations. She was low key and a willing listener... a free thinker ... a seeker.

Idolater, I may be a modalist by your definition ... if this is what you mean: I believe there is ONE God and I worship Him. I believe that this truth is foundational to my faith and all other truths about him must build upon it. Is this belief some sort of sin in your opinion? How would you...

I happen to believe there is ONE invisible spiritual God. I happen to believe HE created a visible image for himself for his purposes and GE used it. I believe this statement in Ps 82: Arise, O God, judge the Earth: for you shalt inherit all nations. I see that verse like this: Arise (from...

Who can find the verses that tell us our Risen Lord Jesus introduces the one and only potentate, the KING of kings and the Lord of lords ...and who only has immortality and dwells in unapproachable light. Now, the Lord Jesus, being the one who is doing the introduction, is not the one being...

Sorry I changed a few words above ... it did not change my meaning ... just made things a little clearer.

Here is a starting point for a fun exploration of what our Risen Lord's physical appearance will be when we see him in his kingdom. I'm sure lots of us have our ideas. Mine begins with a prayer prayed by Jesus to The Father in the presence of his followers. John 17:1,4,5 (the whole prayer is...

The point has been made that I write too many words and although I enjoy writing them ... not so many others take the time to read them; so, following that wise comment I will keep things short about the trinity. I hope my fellow believers believe there is ONE God. I say he is an invisible...
