Re: Saying Hello

Welcome to the board.

I also am an OEC in principal but I find the issue somewhat insignificant, really. Looking forward to your posts.

God bless.

Simply amazing how the word of God, i.e. the Bible, is one and is absolute, yet there are so many differing views on the meaning. Only when man looks to man for the answers my friend! When we look to God, His Word and seek Him the Spirit will guide us and teach us. :) Look at the views that poeple ...

I'm not saying that the Law in it self is done away with, but it has been fulfilled in the body of Jesus. Keep in mind that the ceremonial laws such as (tithing, sacrifice offerings, the dietary laws, the sabbath, new moon oberservations...etc) were a SIGN of the coming Christ and his relationship ...

Kurieuo, For centuries church has been teaching the Trinity wrong. They taught that the Holy Trinity is made of of three persons, and that these three persons created the world. These saying by the Father below contradicts the trinity of three persons from eternity, before creation. I am Jehovah, a...

ok... Think of the camel and the llama. We know they are related, they are genetically compatible, they share much of the same genome and they are physically similar. But we don't know the route of devlopment. The route... I'll let it go. In fact, that seems like a fair statement and if science wer...

I'll post the whole thing again looking for a flaw in the logic: 1. Three guys pay $10 each for a $30 hotel room. No problems there. 10*30=30. 3. The room was only $25. The manager gives $5 to the bell hop. No problems there. 30-5=25. 4. The bell hop gives $3 to each man in the room and keeps $2 hi...

The Greeks named the city Byblos because of the multitude of papyruses they found in the city where the Phoenicains were busy inventing the first alphabet. 'Byblos', books, the book, bible. That's the origin of the word. You should have done a little more research, or simply asked. I see the correl...

Actually a renewed fan.

How have you been?
Thanks BGood, I've been busy to say the least. But like JBuza, I've also been lurking in the background.

$25 + $3 + $2 = surprisingly $30. You answer this in your next post. Really what should work is the following: (10*3)=(9*3)+(2) or (What each man paid initially)=(What each man paid after getting reimbursed)+(What the bellhop kept) I'm not going to say that it does work. Obviously it doesn't. But i...

Hmm, you seem to be very fond of the source you site below. You quoted them almost verbatim. Truth is Truth friend. My friend, truth is in the eye of the subjective interpreter, no more and no less. Your truth is different than mine. There's but one absolute truth and you know that's beyond both of...

Now you're putting words in my mouth. Where did I use numbers to indicate superiority? That is simply false. What I said was there are few among many who are misguided. And since there are so many Catholics a few could be a large number. That's what I meant. Sorry Byblos, I messed the quote up, No ...

So are you saying because our Father knows our needs there's no need for prayer at all then? No. In any case, I do not fault you for seeing it the way you do. You are not familiar with the doctrine nor the practice. More to the point, I am not catholic, and the Scriptures do not support this 'doctr...

considering there are more than a billion Catholics Mat 22:14 For many are called, but few are chosen. the practice of praying to the saints, or to Mary for that matter, is in no way an act of worship. It is for the request of intercessory prayers due to the special relationship Mary and the saints...

I agree that Catholics are Christians, and although I come from a Catholic backround, I really havent studied the scriptures enough to really comment upon their beliefs and doctrines... But I believe Catholics are saved, but you dont necessarily have to be one to be saved. Also, Catholics do not pr...
