Jesus is not fully God and fully man. This is a mistake many make. The historic position is "He is fully God as far as his Spirit (person). And "he has a fully Divine Nature and a fully Human Nature" If he is as you and many misunderst…

Scripture will not make sense unless you realize Jesus is body (human) soul/mind (human) and Spirit (God). If you try using this formula, you will have an entirely different view of the NT.

The scriptures I've provided revolve around a central theme. That Jesus is God with a human mind and body. The recent "Son of man returning to heaven where he came from" is particularly interesting as it helps solve some trinitarian sq…

Sometimes scriptures giving a different view provide better understanding of those less clear. One of the basics in scripture interpretation is to compare scripture with scripture. This sometimes forces a correct interpretation on vers…

Jesus taught us that it was useless to argue with the Pharisees who saw things the same as BC and WS do. If either cannot grasp the passages already cited, surely the more complex proofs of Christ's deity will also not be received.

I thought Reformed was doing a good job. That's why I didn't want to butt in. If you could show a difference between you and the Pharisees' view of Christ, It might be worth the time looking at your ideas.

“The Jewish leaders replied, “We are not going to stone you for a good deed but for blasphemy, because you, a man, are claiming to be God.”” (John 10:33)
The Jews believed Jesus was only a man, just as you do. And this is why the world is…

Is the US moving away from the military industrial complex into a sort of business industrial complex?

“Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. On these t…

I think Lennox answers well. But churches have a bloody history to overcome that skeptics can draw from. And use against us to find scriptures that otherwise would be understood metaphorically. Given their history, some of the most dangerous peop…

I believe Homosexuals are born that way and others choose to be that way. And they aren't any different from all sinners born in Adam. Each person has a different poison they prefer.
Many churches advocate adultery through divorce and rem…

CM, Israel is Christ and all who belong to him. God broke the unbelieving Jews off from Him (Israel) in Romans 11. And will re-attach any who accept Christ for their father's sakes.

I'm not shifting blame. I'm pinpointing the cause. If you get rolled walking in a seedy neighborhood that you could have avoided, you are still a victim, but the reason was because of your choice.

Keep in mind GaoLu, “Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by faith. Be not highminded, but fear:” (Romans 11:20)
“And they also, if they abide not still in unbelief, shall be graffed in: for God is …

This is true if you fail to understand that most of the world's suffering under terrorism stems from the Jews who did not accept Christ and acclimate into christendom with the rest of the thousands of Jews who did.
Had they acc…

I was commenting on the courage to throw off religious superstition, but you have made them even more courageous bringing to light the persecution they experience in religiously superstitious regimes.
The reason for their coura…

This is true. But I think many Christians develop self-righteous attitudes and become judgmental. It works like this. The Pharisees thought they were good because they did not commit the sins they wanted to. But if they were honestly g…

Great points. I think Christians fall into error when asking WWJD. Because all have a different idea of Jesus. The Catholic Jesus murdered millions. The Protestant Jesus murdered thousands. And the Evangelical or KKK Jesus is capable o…

I think Paul is speaking about himself in the second person. And what I find comforting is that he could not tell whether he was in or out of his body.
“I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago (whether in the body or out of the body…

Thanks for the article. Where he mentions Dietrich Bonhoeffer "who questioned the symbiotic, and problematic, relationship that emerged between Adolf Hitler and 1930s German evangelical churches."

I think Paul outlines employee-employer relationships. Even if slavery does not exist. He doesn't approve of it, but treats it as a fact of life. I worked for a business the State warned about violating anti-slavery laws. They made an agreement a…

I think Muslims evaluating their history would be as easy on themselves as Christians evaluating their own history. Possibly each would discount their violence while focusing on the violence of the other.
But christendom still has the sam…

Thanks for the call for caution. But, I'm not saying all heretics are the source of terrorism. Only the Jews who rejected Christ as YHWH are the source of today's bumper crop of terror. Had they accepted Jesus, they would have acclimat…
