You [we] have got to respect the right of people to be wrong and not create a big dissension over the differences.
Opps, Wrong thread. Maybe it applies here too?
Sorry. Carry on
P.S.Interesting, I'd like to know more?Quote:
Yes, the Creator made them male and female but that apple-eating episode queered the deal.
I Had planned on doing a study that involved: The Apple (food aspect) being the Catalyst of sin (so to speak).
Remember- God didn't curse man.
If I may?
If I remember Correctly: Adam Did have Authority over Eve. (I'm not Sure if he knew it or not). Adam Declared his Authoritative position when He named Eve (just as he had done with the Animals), By naming her Eve, he recognized his Authority. If I'm not mistaken he named his Wife (Eve) after Sin had already entered into the World?
Sorry, Not sure where you were going with this binary thing, along with the "eating of the Apple."
I understand having to *Accept LGBQT Community. Jesus didn't hate anybody as far as I know?
There might be a problem when a country "Promotes" such business?
*Accept it sure, but why Promote it?
***(Acknowledge Sin. Be it- as in my life- as in yours)
You and Athos are in the same boat. You can believe what Jesus said or not. You have rather clearly decided not to. Why? Because it does not agree with your political philosophy. If you are going about, as I'm sure you are, telling homosexuals that their lifestyle is just fine with God on the basis of a silly reading of Genesis 3, and in complete denial of what Jesus said, and not to mention Paul's reference to the same passage in Eph. 5, then I fear for you.Quote:

LOL. It never fails.Quote:

Gen. 3:20: And Adam called his wife's name Eve; because she was the mother of all living.Quote:

And you've studied bible hermeneutics???Quote:

Of course you are. Everyone is a literalist. You can't live without being a literalist. When you order a hamburger, you expect to get...a hamburger.
Incidentally, I have never, nor shall I ever, bash "Bibles on people's heads." On the other hand, I will not intentionally misrepresent the clear teaching of the Bible simply to preserve a person's temporary happiness. Much better to accept the joy that comes from serving Jesus than to walk in temporary pleasure.
No, I'm not. Neither is Arby's. If they are literalists, why did we order a roast beef sandwich, a gyro, and a beef 'n cheddar sandwich for supper and, after getting home, noticed they had put a fish sandwich into the bag too? If we are literalists, why did we eat the unordered fish sandwich?Quote:

You constantly misrepresent what the Bible says!Quote:

That has nothing to do with being non-literal.Quote:

You know better than that. A verse or two or three can be cherry picking, but when you start speaking of multiples of ten, and especially when you have no scriptures that contradict them, then talking about cherry picking is just evasion.Quote:

Give an example.Quote:

WG, you know better. You know full well that you are not following the Bible. You honestly seem to not really know the Bible.
You used a hamburger as an example.Quote:

Right.Quote:

It's all binary. The beauty of binary is that there is no wiggle room. Nothing is fuzzy or unclear.Quote:
Once Adam and Eve ate that apple, the universe became open to unlimited possibilities. No more binary.
It's a Binary Gospel.
Not any more! Humans, animals (both land and sea creatures), and plants are binary as well as non-binary.Quote:

How so? Please explain.Quote:

The beauty of binary is that there is no wiggle room. Nothing is fuzzy or unclear. In binary computer code, ones are not zeros, and zeros are not ones. This binary nature is what makes the true Gospel clear in contrast to religion.
Here you have two binary opposites. You have either passed from death to life and will escape judgment, or you haven’t.Quote:
“Very truly I tell you, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life and will not be judged but has crossed over from death to life” (John 5:24).
Binary again. You either have the life in the Son or you don’t.Quote:
“Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life” (1 John 5:24).
You have been rescued or you haven’t. You are in the Kingdom or you are not.Quote:
“For he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves,” (Colossians 1:13).
The Scriptures are clear; it’s all of Jesus, or none of Him. IT’S BINARY.
Well said, Walter.
