False. There is no passage in scripture, nor collection of passages as a whole, that communicates to us that God knows literally everything. In order to arrive at that conclusion, you must intentionally read "omniscience" into the text. Right, because what we're caveating is a pagan concept...

The definition of a miracle (from Oxford Languages, through a quick Google search): "a surprising and welcome event that is not explicable by natural or scientific laws and is therefore considered to be the work of a divine agency." In other words, you will never understand through the study...

We agree on this. No, sorry, what's good for the goose is good for the gander. You can't just apply your reasoning to one passage and not another. If the context is what tells us what "all things" is referring to in one passage, then the context is what tells us what "all things" refers to...

I was mostly referring to the rank and file leftists. They simply don't have the brain capacity for it. The elite, however, are dangerously smart.

Original sin is false because of what the Bible says. Go read Ezekiel 18. Yes, the whole chapter. It puts the entire idea of "original sin" to rest, PERMANENTLY.

Answered by others here, but quite frankly, it's not what someONE determines, but what is allowed by the context. This is simply false. The Bible was written in such a way that it is extremely hard to mistranslate it. It was written as a story, a narrative that follows God and His chosen...

I was being generous.

Leftists don't think more than one step ahead, do they?

I really hope she's among the first 10 people Trump fires.

Throwing a tantrum isn't going to refute my argument. She was already worshipping God. Hearing the gospel allowed her to believe the gospel. Just like hearing a multiple choice question enables you to answer said question. :blabla: Stomping your foot and saying "the debate is over!"...

Paul's speaking came first, then her heart was opened by God. Her heart wasn't opened before Paul spoke. She was worshipping God before Paul arrived. All three of these things refute your beliefs, no matter how you try to spin it. The Lord opened her heart through the preaching of the...

No worries. And I think it would be, even if we didn't have a way to remove an evil king. I'll explain why below. Alright, so, I think I have an answer to the whole conundrum of having a means of removing an evil king. There's a saying that I heard within the last year, most prominently on...

... Through the preaching of Paul. He didn't open her heart until she heard the words from Paul spoken. It wasn't some effectual work on God's part. Her heart was opened through the gospel which Paul preached. The means of her heart being opened was the preaching of the gospel. We attribute...

Anyone can cite or quote a few Bible verses and make them say what they want them to say. Doesn't mean what is being said is rational, or good. Hence...: Matthew 27:5; Luke 10:37, as an extreme example of what NOT to do.

Which, of course, is entire the point @Clete was making.

This is what you want inside the tags. Nothing else. Should look like this:

Yeah, it's been borked for a bit now. Workaround for now is to do the following: 1. Copy the link to the post and paste it somewhere you can edit it, the text input box on TOL works fine. 2. remove everything after and including the "?=si" (it's just tracking information) and everything before...

It's the same word used BOTH TIMES, Lon. PAS. Means "All, the whole, every kind of." Or are you trying to beg the question that it means something different just because it's talking about God? It says "you know all things" in both passages. So, either it means LITERALLY all things, in both...

Who? That comes through the preaching of the gospel. Which, again, is why it's so important to preach, so that ANYONE who hears it CAN come to Christ.
