I didn't ask you to rephrase your belief in different words. I asked you to explain WHY you believe it. Is it just an assumption or has someone presented an actual argument that supports it? Further, as I pointed out in my previous post, we know without any question whatsoever that Israel had...

He didn't miss it. He doesn't care. He thinks he is a New Testament Jew or the equivalent of one. No biblical argument can touch his doctrine because he doesn't get his doctrine from the bible. The bible is only there to lend support to his dogma, when such support is both needed AND wanted...

My question remains. On what grounds do you associate the events of 70 AD with when the change happened rather than the biblical events that occurred a generation (or so) earlier?

This, I'm quite sure, was an intentional lie! That is NOT all that the church is saying and you KNOW that this isn't all they're saying! We are all monsters Idolater! Some very clearly worse than others but it's only a matter of degree. The fact is that none of us really have any firm...

What are you talking about? I believe it! This again is an argument from silence. It is a very revealing argument from silence in that it exposes a whole list of false doctrines you hold but that's a discussion for another time. So, first of all, public profession of faith is not what saves...

Textbook argument from silence. Romans 4:5 But to him who does not work but believes on Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is accounted for righteousness, Your unreasonable focus on specific English words is reminiscent of how cults do their doctrine. It isn't the word that's important...

70 AD had nothing to do with it. Salvation was available to both Jew and Gentile "by grace through faith in Christ alone believing that he died and Rose from the dead, shedding his blood as the sacrifice for their sins", as you put it, well before 70 AD. The events of 70 AD were an effect of...

Psalm 14:3 They have all turned aside, They have together become corrupt; There is none who does good, No, not one. Psalm 53:3 Every one of them has turned aside; They have together become corrupt; There is none who does good, No, not one. Romans 3:10 As it is written: “There is none...

I see! Sorry that was lost on me! :( I've had him on ignore for a week or so now. All I've seen from him mostly is stuff I catch when someone I don't have on ignore quotes him. I used to be able to tolerate his sort but I now I have to take people like him in small dozes. Otherwise, I tend to...

The write ups?

He is literally a lunatic. He simply does not care if what he believes and says has any relationship with documented history, actual reality or anything related to rationality or even common sense. Discussing religion with Serpent1 is the intellectual equivalent to discussing biology with Jack...

There is a particular kind of ignorance that parades itself as insight, especially when it comes wrapped in conspiracy theories about Bible corruption. Our resident One Pentecostal asserts that “Catholicism altered the Bible in the 4th century to fit their false council teachings,” and that the...

Posting the OP was premature. It was incomplete. Here is a revised version that more completely makes the argument... What is morality? Morality is a code of values to guide one’s choices and actions, the choices and actions that determine the purpose and the course of his life. To speak...

Lie Lie Intentional lie Three trikes and you're out. Good bye!

Goofy stupidity. We still have the text in its original language and it's been translated hundreds of times in hundreds of different languages by scores of different sets of people for as many different reasons. It has been preserved - by God - in such a way as the corruption you suggest...

Liar.

Your Oneness Pentecostalism is showing, and it’s not a good look. This kind of hyper-suspicious, revisionist nonsense is textbook cult mentality. The idea that true Christianity vanished after the apostles and magically re-emerged with your group isn’t just arrogant, it’s embarrassingly idiotic...

Yes it is. The first three sentences are true. The rest is more or less made up nonsense that ignores whole swaths of scripture. The solitary fact anyone needs to know to explode what you've said here into dust is simply that the Body of Christ and Israel are not the same thing. Entirely...

This is a false - and quite Catholic - manner of INTERPRETING this passage. The fact of the matter is that it is not even possible to read without interpreting what you've read. That's how language works. The very act of reading it is the act of interpreting the text. Peter is not saying that...

Your counter argument is literal blasphemy, Idolater! Jesus' death had first person witnesses that people actually interacted with and knew the character of. Both Jesus' death and resurrection were attested to, not merely by those who stood to benefit from it, but from many who had no direct...
