Except the ability to communicate and use your mind, which you cannot do without borrowing from the Christian worldview. Yes, I said that correctly. Every intelligible syllable you utter tacitly borrows from the Christian worldview. Your ability to read this sentence borrows from the Christian...

I don't think God has the ability to do that either.

Okay, first of all, I want to acknowledge the time you spent writing this very long post and I want to make clear that my brief response is not about me blowing off anything you've said but only my attempt to focus the discussion and to sort of reset the length of the posts so that the responses...

No question, there are indeed groups of people who are "elect". The Calvinist interpretation of this would make God unjust and is therefore clearly false and simply ridiculous really. Well, yes, but not in the way the Calvinists mean it. One becomes one of the elect if and when you believe...

The cited verse doesn't teach the doctrine he espouses here. Hebrews 9:14 doesn't speak about the blood of Christ doing something to us as though it were some sort of magic spell cast on us against our will or absent our knowledge and consent. It, just like everything else b57 has presented, is...

Why would I ever want to represent Catholicism? I am not a Catholic nor would I ever want to be accidentally thought of as being Catholic. Catholics believe one unbiblical and contradictory doctrine after another. There are very definitely a great many Catholics who are saved Christians but they...

Saying it doesn't make it so. No, it isn't. The sky is blue, not red. The clouds can reflect red light during sunrise and sunset but the clouds aren't the sky. Except that it's true and the others aren't. You flatly don't know what you're talking about. Christianity, that is actually biblical...

I just saw a link to the thread on the home page and started reading. I saw Keypurr's post and just reacted. I didn't notice how old it was until after I had already hit the post button. At least the guy made an argument, though! I wish I had seen the post back then. Maybe I could have...

You are not a christian!

It has nothing to do with my imagination. It has nothing to do with my opinions. It has nothing to do with anyone's opinions because it isn't a matter of opinion. People have their opinions but they're no more a reflection of the truth than if someone had the opinion that the sky was red. In...

Nobody cares, nor should they care what being saved is to you. It very simply is not a matter of opinion. John 3:16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. 17 For God did not send His Son into the...

Liar. I did answer the question and you know it. What a buffoonish clown you are.

Not once single syllable of even the yanked out of context verses that b57 cited here say anything whatsoever about the flatly idiotic doctrine of Regeneration! If you want to know how a cultist is able to pull the nut job wacko doctrines they teach out of the bible, all you have to do is read...

You are such a hypocrite! How many hundreds of times have you failed to even respond at all to direct questions? You routinely ignore practically every word that is said to you! As I said before, you don't know how to ask questions that aren't loaded. Why focus such a question on just one...

No, the tree we're talking about is Israel. (See Luke 16:3-9) Try to keep up.

As evidenced by the number of times you agreed with me, there really isn't a dime's worth of difference between what we are saying. It's literally the difference between talking about the color red vs. talking about a red car. If the Barren Fig Tree had born fruit after being fertilized, what...

Well, I'm not convinced but you might be able to convince me. Let's say you're right and that it's used in Gal. 5:22 is a noun. How would it have been written differently in the original language had Paul intended it to be an adjective? Also, I'm not at all sure that it matters because there...

You say out of one side of your mouth that "they weren't forced" and out of the other will state that you believe in "irresistible grace". What's more is that you will twist any concept relating to their "choice" into meaningless gibberish in order to preserve the plain meaning of "irresistible...

No, I'm not kidding you. I quoted the scripture directly. The list of things in Galatians 5 are adjectives not nouns. As I said in my post, I'm not suggesting that it an entirely different thing and explained the difference in my post, which you promptly and predictably ignored. I'm perfectly...

I directly answered that question. Will you or will you not define what faith is? No, just as I predicted, you will not define it because you know that the question is loaded! You don't even know how to ask a question that isn't loaded. If you were to accidently ask a question that wasn't...
