Why are you convinced that Paul necessarily means baptize meaning water baptism, instead of baptize by the Holy Spirit only, and with no water? Is it because of something outside Scripture, or something internal to the Bible?

Its audience is Timothy. A Gentile sure, but a bishop, or overseer, or elder. I am not one of those. The Church, the Body of Christ. The Body of Christ and to those who might believe in Jesus.

One of my favorite parts of fasting is knowing that basically my insulin secretion system is on vacation all week. It doesn't have any reason to secrete insulin (even if all you eat is pure protein, you're still going to secrete some insulin) when you eat nothing. My body can recalibrate or...

Over eight percent. But remember a ton of water comes off at the start and then the weight loss calms down in the middle of the week. That water is easy to gain back as it is easy to lose. I did consume creatine each day to minimize the weight loss due to water.

He acknowledged the earliest Church had hierarchy of some form. If you mean "rightly divide" then no, that wasn't written to me, that was written to Bishop Timothy. If you don't like the translation then call him Elder Timothy or Overseer Timothy but the point is as STP acknowledged, there is...

It's not "in the way that [I Idolater] think that the Catechism is authoritative," the Catechism is authoritative by any measure of that word. It is authoritative Catholicism. What I'm looking for is authoritative Mid Acts Dispensationalism. I'm not looking for authoritative Bob Enyart...

(I pulled this post over from the exclusive fasting thread.) I've just completed the hardest 156-hour c. water fast, and it was a fast I lifted weights during. Yesterday was the hardest day of any fast I've ever had, and even after a decent night's sleep last night, I still feel relatively...

Everybody vote Republican.

Si vis pacem parabellum doesn't register with Hoping. He thinks preparing for war is evil. Even though, as you're pointing out, it would have prevented war in this case. It's not the same as saying the West is responsible for Putin the Great Fool invading though. It is a reason to scrutinize...

(Link) pravda-dot-com? What is that?

Mr. Miagi manipulated Danielsan into learning karate with "wax on, wax off."

I am concerned that Crimea was akin to Chamberlain's appeasement, but to under this analogy not call Hitler (Putin) also insane, and only Chamberlain, is insane. None of this would have happened without Putin (Hitler). It's 100% realistic.

Don't you think war could have been prevented had Putin the Insane Idiot simply not invaded Ukraine? For "them?" What about Putin the Immense Loser? Is there still time for him to save face? And this is because of "Biden and his gang of thugs," but not Putin the Mediocre Moron?

OK. Some descriptions I forget to include of Israetel are "obscene" and "crass." He's all those things. I know you know what you're getting into, I just want to make sure anybody else does too. I like Berg and Israetel because their content is short and sweet. Like a 20-30 minute television...

(And I know that you already know this but just to spell it out even more obviously: ) Including Gentiles, which is made clear in Matthew 12:15-21 https://theologyonline.com/threads/why-didnt-jesus-want-his-disciples-to-make-him-known-before-the-dbr.58300/ It's because the cross needed to...

OK. So how much of the carbonates were formed underground? 99%? So are you meaning to say that it's closer to 10 billion megatons TNT worth of energy released during the geologic column's formation, rather than 1 trillion? I guess so, but even if 99.99% of the carbonates were formed before...

Word of caution, word of warning, beware, be wary: "Israetel" is a guy, his name is Michael Israetel PhD and he's got a potty mouth, a sailor's mouth. He is vulgar, very much so at times. So I'll not be posting any links to his content, unless it's the very rare one where he doesn't use any...

Pertinent threads: https://theologyonline.com/threads/lifting-thread.58394/ https://theologyonline.com/threads/fasting-thread.59096/ Purpose here is to discuss lifting weights and fasting in one thread. Reason being the other threads really focus on one or the other and not both, and we're...
