This is so ridiculous, that I don't know whether to laugh or just 'PLAIN FEEL SORRY FOR YOU'!, Linear...
Yet your choice of word and punctuation indicated you feel anger rather than humor or pity.
How very "blind" you truly are of the Holy Scriptures! You seem to know {some} verses, and remind me of the Pharisees....
Then we are not to test our prophets? Which part of those scriptures did I get wrong?
You obviously did not read the very first post on this prolonged thread! Also, you must enjoy the 'copy and paste' button, then replying with your ridiculous replies, WITHOUT EVEN ANSWERING THE QUESTIONS THAT SPEAK SPECIFICALLY TO YOU!
I read the post and there were no questions there that were asked specifically of me. The fact that I have commented on Dr. Stanley's opinion should have given you an indication that I had read the post.
CTD has asked you, and so have I, what exactly is the Doctrine of the [so called] Christian Evolutionist????
There is no set "doctrine" for a Christian who accepts the theory of evolution. I happen to follow most of the doctrines of the Assemblies of God so I guess you could say that is my particular doctrine.
You are so much like those prophesied by Isaiah the prophet....I won't entertain you with all the verses, so you can misinterpret God's Holy Word,....'eyes to see but cannot see, ears to hear but cannot hear....'
You are always ready to pronounce me a heretic, misguided or a Pharisee yet provide almost nothing to support those condemnations. What have I done that is like a Pharisee? You say my eyes cannot see but I am not the one who accepts generalized statements about the spiritual status of this country without actually trying to understand the details of the problem. Is the way out of this "backsliding" to legislate the morality of the people or is God asking us, as Christians, to lead by example?
2 Chronicles 7:14
if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land.
God gave this promise to Solomon when He consecrated the temple. Is this a promise to Christians too? Can we legislate humility, prayer or turning from wicked ways? If not, then how can Christians help to heal the land that is our country?
Oh! Knock it off! This one should fit you, "..the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.....not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble are called...
??? You believe my comments are about the flesh? Dr. Stanley seems to indicate that this is a legal (fleshly) battle rather than a spiritual battle. I disagree. However, if it is a legal battle in which we should make gay marriage, homosexuality, adultery, fornication, lust and other things illegal then why not go all the way and make other religions besides Christianity illegal? Why are Christians that want to make American laws out of Biblical laws reluctant to make the first commandment into an American law?
BUT God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty...."
Do you really think you are confounding me?
As an ambassador of Christ, I am saying to you, Linear, "No flesh should glory in his presence."....
And this applies to the discussion...how?
Of course, you will deny this. So what else is new?
I don't deny the statement...just the applicability.
