No, it isn't a case of good and bad as in good and evil, as if anything could be both. Whether you hitting your friend's hand is good or evil depends entirely on why you did it. It is was an accident then there is no blame because accidents cannot be evil, by definition. If it wasn't intentional...

It's the motive that makes an action good or bad, Lon! And Jesus gives us the motive anyway. A father gives his kids good gifts because they were in need and asked for a piece of bread or a fish. All men have sinned and have need of a savior. Indeed, we really have no idea just how dispicable we...

Why do you not take Jesus at His word?

You're changing the subject and are basically stating that these single sentence proof texts are, in fact, figures of speech that take some effort to understand beyond the simple surface reading of the out of context sentence. And now, once again, want to pretend like what I've been saying the...

That is an excellent point! Bravo! One of the most excellent and powerful points in favor of Open Theism is that everyone who isn't an open theist has the exact problem that you just described. Immutability and the omni-attributes, as classically understood, are irrational. They cannot be held...

"It doesn't matter to God what humans want to think about sin." Really? Is that what you really believe? And I have denied nothing that God has said about anything. It's what you say that I deny.

I have no good evidence that you are a brother, Marke. Like I said, I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt and presuming, unless and until further evidence comes in, that you are not. I had already explicitly told you multiple times that which you decided needed "clarification". It isn't...

Cool! :cool: Thank you!

Do you even understand the concept of "figures of speech"? Can you blink your eyes without abiding in Christ? Is blinking your eyes sin? How about breathing, is that a sin too? Maybe lifting your right arm over your head, can that be done by those who don't abide in Christ and He in them...

Is that anything like lying through your teeth?

No, I haven't. Well no kidding you drooling idiot! There isn't anything I've said that the most retarded eight year old would have construed to be suggesting any such stupid thing as "any man could become God"! This post is just yet another lie. The truth is that you've gotten caught with...

Thank you Captain Obvious! How many times have I already made these exact points you slobber mouthed moron!

How is it even possible for such a simple thing to be the least bit controversial or difficult to understand?

All nonsensical gibberish that the bible does not teach (but that Plato did teach). God is neither omniscient nor omnipresent and is only omnipotent to the extent that He hasn't delegated power to others. God can do anything that is doable. God CANNOT do the absurd. He cannot stop being God...

What I said or what I was responding too? If the former, then you'll need to explain yourself a bit because there isn't a Calvinist anywhere in the world that would agree with a syllable of what I said in that post.

I've seen other Calvinists post this little tidbit of stupidity. You really are just a big bag of mindless cliche and platitudes. Do you actually believe that it is evil to plow a field? I mean the act of breaking dirt with the intention of planting a crop. Do you think that action is itself...

You are not a Christian and will die in your sin unless you repent. I am not kidding! Understanding that Jesus, the man, is the Creator God HIMSELF, is a necessary doctrine of the Christian faith. To deny it is to deny the faith entirely.

You are flatly wrong. Quite close to blasphemously so. God did not create us in order to put us all to death. We are all going to die, or have someone die in our place, because God is just! It isn't because God is sovereign and He gets to decide by fiat what right and wrong is. Adam rebelled...

Contradict yourself much? How can you state in one sentence that "we don't get to make those valuations" and then do exactly that before you get to the period of the very same sentence? Answer the question Lon. Repeating your assertion doesn't count as a valid response. I am not asking you...

If this were actually so you'd engage the debate instead of relying solely on the emotional impact of what some might think are clever one liners. Just as no two truths can contradict each other, there is no conflict between an honest intellect and any matter of faith. God does not ask us to...
