What an excellent question! If it were, Christ need not have died. The debt is not finite. If it were then God could have simply created another creature of sufficient value to pay the debt. As it is, God's own life is the only coin of sufficient value.

You're so wrong! I reject your reality and substitute my own! Isn't that what people around here do when presented with overwhelming evidence that they've said something that is incorrect? Just tryin' to fit in!

I believe that God would have done so had saving some of Adam's race not been worth the cost. What a cost! Right?! In that light, its really crazy to think about just how incredibly amazing our relationship with God is going to be when this flesh is gone!

Not exactly a stellar start to a burgeoning technology. People will not use it if they cannot reasonably trust it.

Well, "remove from existence" is something of a figure of speech. I meant, "kill them on the spot and send them along with Satan and the rebellious angels to their eternal fate", whatever that would have been had He decided go that route.

"The Lamb slain from the foundation of the World" is simply conveying the idea that God had made the decision to sacrifice Himself to save some of Adam's race, should the need arise, from the very beginning.

There was no other way to deal with man's sin - that kept mankind in existence.

I do not disagree with the gist of your comments here. In fact, I've thought almost the exact same thing about Dr. Peterson. I did want to say, however, that love is not antithetical to the intellect. Indeed, love is an act of the intellect. One cannot love that which he does not choose to love...

My only response to this is to say three things... First of all, I'm sorry about the Phillip/Stephen error. So embarrassing! Second, I agree with, sympathize with and agonize over the confusion created THROUGHOUT the church by Acts 2 Dispensationalism. I simply hate the fact that it is the...

Maybe Phillip was his middle name! :unsure:

Yes! Of course I meant Stephen! This error is actually what woke me up this morning at 4:30 and wouldn't let me go back to sleep. It is also not the first time I've made this exact same mistake! I seem to have a glitch in my brain that wants to call Stephen, Phillip! I even do it when speaking...

I've not delved much at all into ChatGPT and the little bit I have has been rather uninteresting really. This morning, I woke up early and couldn't go back to sleep and so decided to ask ChatGPT what the word Logos meant. Here's the results.... Clete: What is the best English translation for...

Embarrassing.

I've tried. It's an addiction, I think. Yeah, that was sort of heat of the moment thing and should not have been said. Had I been anywhere near a computer, I'd have deleted that half an hour after I posted it. I'll do what I want to do and there's not one damn thing you can do about it...

No Mid-Acts believer would ever desire (rightly) to remove James from the scripture. James wrote a brilliant epistle that is not only profitable now but will be critical when God returns to working directly with and through Israel. Besides, you couldn't remove the book of James without the same...

No it wasn't Derf! You're wrong. Nope! Not one single ad hominem is in any post I've made in the last year. You don't know what you're talking about. You don't know what an argument from silence is and you don't know what an ad hominem is either. Liar. Except that there is evidence and the...

Your questions had no bearing on anything I said or believe or that has anything to do with what any Mid-Acts Dispensationalists teaches. You get out what you put in.

Which is why I made an argument. Ignoring an argument doesn't count as a refutation. I don't care how you meant it. Of course! How would that be relevant? Ever since Socrates introduced the world to an immutable God who controls everything that happens. If God isn't the God of Socrates...

I am so bored with this website! You yourself called it a strawman argument you silly idiot! Repeating your position doesn't make it so either.

I knew it! I KNEW that you'd say something idiotic like this! I mean literally idiotic stupidity! I ALMOST posted it as a prediction but didn't because I didn't want to come off as being a jerk!!! Can you not bother to even do a google search or something to see if maybe you've made a mistake...
