Weighty.

I repeat:

Yes!

Doesn't that just say that the Houses of Israel and Judah are blinded to see the New Covenant which has already been dedicated? They don't know the New Covenant has commenced, was enacted, and is currently in force. Isn't that all it says in 2nd Corinthians 3? That says that Paul will bring...

No! I'm not surprised because I looked into it. There's easily a factor of ten or even 100 involved in the under-reporting error here. You just don't record non-events. Nothing happened, so there's nothing to report. I personally have used my guns defensively that I can remember, at least...

You hang an awful lot of weight on that peg. Specifically the "My God" peg, when Jesus utters this phrase. You think that this term alone supports your case, which is otherwise just plainly bonkers. Obviously a Man Who said, "30* The Father and I are one.”r " PLUS Who raised the dead, walked...

That's because the accounts are chronicled specifically to demonstrate that even while the Lord Jesus never claimed to be God everybody else knew He was claiming to be God. It was obvious, I think it's very interesting that all the Gospel writers cannot find a single instance in history where...

Eating healthy just means it didn't make you throw up. I've got a low bar.

Granted. Doesn't mean I'm wrong though. I think addictions are what they are within a value system, if a habit is destroying something you value, like your health, your relationships, your faith, your finances, then you can think of that as an addiction. So long as your eating healthy and...

Not how rights work. Absolute rights are not balanced with any other absolute rights, that's what absolute means. And as I said previously if we receive that children have rights, they impose obligations on parents and in this case on the mother. She is morally obligated to take care of her...

Confirmed: Climate ideology is a partisan rather than a non-partisan matter. My evidence? https://apnews.com/article/queen-elizabeth-ii-king-charles-iii-africa-middle-east-d9523bdecc2604eed07d5c85facb88f3

That wasn't your point, otherwise you wouldn't have said what you said. You're the one who introduced the analogy of the safe harbor. Yet you failed to stop at that the child is already in a safe harbor right where he or she (and or neither he-or-she) already is. To safely transport the child...

No, please: By all means, continue. This is the thread for it.

I have that in spades. It'd be nationalism if it were based on race (or ethnicity), but it's not. It's entirely ideological, divorced from race. I'm absolutely an American exceptionalist, but it has nothing to do with white or Black, Latino or Latinx. It's just our framing documents. Like...

It might be a dude posing as a lady, don't forget. Anonymous internet discussion boards and all. It's always a possibility that users aren't exactly what they're appearing to be, and sometimes, this is by design.

Pretty good exegetical analysis, I think. In this context perhaps the OP ought to have said something more particularly along the lines of, that the Church replaced Israel and the Gentiles as they're depicted in the Old Testament. Galatians 3:28 is certainly consistent with this thesis. The...

Go with God.

"Listen to this guy:" Nope. He's an idiot. Comes from upbringing. Parents are probably idiots too.

"I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son, who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified, who has spoken through the prophets." But history reveals just one Christian tradition in the central matters of the bodily nonfiction...
