I've rarely seen his equal. No redeeming qualities.

....and that God the Son chose to offer Himself, to intentionally lay down His own life and Who took it up again by the Holy Spirit. Sort of total team effort, you might say, especially when one considered the fact the the Three are all One.

You were saying that if Paul had authored Hebrews it would cause confusion. I agree.

Do you really think so? It seems like it would just be one piece of trivia that wouldn't be true as it is currently. Why would a variation of greeting style cause confusion?

Every epistle (letter) THAT WE HAVE that Paul wrote happens to begin with his name, yes, but that isn't a determinative piece of evidence because it isn't impossible for him to have written a letter that started with something other than his name. It is the context of the the book of Hebrews...

He doesn't. The only thing he thought about when he wrote that stupidity was how bad it would make Open Theism sound. If you think that accusation was the result of some sort of rational thought process, you'd better think again. He doesn't ever think analytically about anything. His entire...

This is blasphemous stupidity that you knew was false when you wrote it. This was an outright, intentional lie! I will never understand why you're permitted to post such things. The proof being that you WILL NOT ever even attempt to establish such an obviously asinine accusation. You yourself...

Omniscience is not mentioned in Isaiah 46:10. That's you and others who, for whatever reason, what to ascribe the attributes of pagan false gods to the real God, read into that text. Isaiah 46:10 Declaring the end from the beginning, And from ancient times things that are not yet done, Saying...

There is no reason to believe that Paul wrote Hebrews.

Attributing to God fake miracles is to lie and give God the credit for it. That sounds like a sin to me, Gary! (For those who don't know, Gary claims, not only to experience miracles on a daily basis, but to be a prophet and to never commit any sin.)

This thread proves that Gary has no idea what a miracle is.

He connects it with Christ's resurrection! Last time I checked that happened at some point in the past. And why do you ignore Jesus' response to Nicodemus in John 3? 5 Jesus answered, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of...

You are on ignore and will remain there (i.e. meaning that I will not read most of your posts). However.... Once again, I feel as though I'm having a discussion with a lawyer. I did not say that I have no major disagreements with other Open Theists. That's you drawing yet another caricature of...

When you're reading the passage, it reads as though God is actually asking the question. There is no indication, either contextually or grammatically, that He is asking it rhetorically. It does not explain any such thing. It's almost sneaky how one's a priori doctrines get read into a passage...

You pushed me about a mile past it. So long! Have a nice life!

I do not understand how one can live with such double mindedness. Acknowledging that there are things about God that we have no means to know or understand cannot be applied to whatever cherry picked doctrine that we decide we want to leave as irrational and self-contradictory. It is not...

You just couldn't go without making one more stab at pointing out "commonalities", could you? I'm literally at the end of my patience with it, Lon. This right here is your very last warning. If you say one single addition syllable anywhere along these lines, I'll put you on ignore and be done...

No one is ever free to do that, particularly if they have no free will. I do not believe that you have anything other than your doctrine to lend weight to that side of the interpretation scale. I have the plain reading of the text and there is no implication of that plain reading that in anyway...

That is a brilliant point! I'm going to use that one in the future!

So nothing of God can be known. Is that really what you believe? If so, how did you come to believe that? If not, by what means can anything be know about God that doesn't fly in the face of what you said here? I do not deny that "Adam, quit trying to hide." may be what is meant in that...
