I love this post except for the last sentence. The whole idea needs to be just thrown out. We simply do not exist inside God.

Nice dodge. You need to stop pretending that you're being intellectually honest in your "study" of the scripture. The fact is that you really don't give a damn what anyone might say, do you? You're going to ignore every argument anyone ever makes. You've chosen your doctrines and arguments to...

I was saying similar things in the 1980s and I was just as wrong then as you are now. Every generation of Christians from the Apostle Paul til now has believed they lived in the end times. People tend to figure out ways to see what they want to see.

Sorry, Lon but that is just a bunch of rationalizing. There isn't anything in that text that suggests that it isn't translated correctly and that the thought communicated in English isn't completely in keeping with the thought communicated in Hebrew in both of these passage. What's more is that...

See my previous post above. The only thing that I'll add is that all of this two paragraphs of back breaking philosophical knot tying is 100% motivated by your doctrine and NOT the text! It is just one more example of how you read your doctrine into the text. In fact, it is literally a two...

Rather than simply saying that something needs to be done, why don't you do it? If "to see" isn't correct, then what is? I asked Chat GPT a similar question because I don't have the time it would take to look it up myself. Here's the answer I got.... The phrase "to see" in Genesis 2:19 comes...

Here's how Lon will respond.... (Just having a little fun at your expense, Lon! :) )

Are there studies that demonstrate that the covid shots were effective in most people and therefore saved more lives that it took? Answer: Yes! An Imperial College London study estimated that COVID-19 vaccines prevented nearly 20 million deaths worldwide in 2021 alone. These figures accounted...

Not directly but it was required. If they refused to obey they were cut off. Liar. Last chance. You post one single additional syllable of this sort of thing and I'll simply ignore you. The remnant of Israel, at the time, was Peter, James, John, their fellow apostles and their followers...

And yet you decide to continue living under such a tyrannical government. Why doesn't that surprise me? Plane tickets to America where people are free to speak their mind are cheap by comparison to the cost of giving up control of your life to the thought police. If you think they'll stop at...

I am not interested in debating those articles, Lon. I really do not understand you sometimes (most of the time lately). You understand that you don't get to just cherry pick any particular doctrines you want as though you're in some theological buffet line where beliefs are handed out in an...

There's no telling whether they were even predictive prophecies such as was made about Israel and Christ and the end times.

I agree with the gist of this but what do you do with this.... I Timothy1:18 This charge I entrust to you, Timothy, my child, in accordance with the prophecies previously made about you, that by them you may wage the good warfare,

Here is a brief description with citations included of what Panentheism is and what the opening post argues against..... Panentheism is a theological and philosophical perspective asserting that God is both immanent within the universe and transcendent beyond it. The term derives from Greek...

Only idiots and con-artists even try to convince anyone that pantheism isn't wrong. Which are you? I have absolutely no respect for you whatsoever, so there you go. This is an intentional mischaracterization of my opening post. Intentional, meaning that it is a lie. I am not here sniping at...

Which is precisely the doctrine that the OP addresses and, for my money, proves to be false.

Since we're being snide and rediculous... Yes, it does. I don't care how odd anything is to you. I don't base my doctrine on your state of mind. I base it on the gospel as presented by the apostle to the gentiles. Israel had to do all kinds of things to get and remain saved. The list is quite...

I'm not offended, it's just exacerbating when someone says such things. It demonstrates such a shallow understanding of things that it just make my brain ache! Paul absolutely was not explaining how Israel got saved! They had to do one hell of a lot more than believe and make verbal...

Contradict yourself much? Stupidity. No one has made any such idiotic claim so, tell me again who's being absurd? Utterly supid nonsense. There are those who consider themselves both you slobbering moron! And even if that weren't true, my audience is primarily Christians. You are on an...

I didn't say a word about pantheism until the extreme end of the essay, Lon. Reread it and try again. Panentheism is YOUR term, not mine and it has a very specific definition that I used while researching for this essay. You are NOT the guy who gets to define the term. If it doesn't fit then...
