Bible stories don't have it be as dry as dust; they can be fun too. Lighten up, waltero!

Do you really know the correct name of that tree? You called it something else in Post #80. It makes a big...

The Christmas tree? Oh, you mean the tree that Adam and Eve picked the fruit from and ate? Please tell me its name. The apple tree? Granny Smith or maybe Red Delicious?

The presence of our glorious God among us, making our new home far more wonderful than anything we can ever imagine! Heaven will be the MOST Glorious, MOST wonderful, most COMPLETELY perfect, and...

By a perfect Earth, I mean the landscapes -- lakes, oceans, mountains, prairies, forests -- that we enjoy now plus the wild animals that will all be tame. No disease, death, trash thrown around. AND...

My understanding of heaven is that it will be a perfect Earth with life much as we know it now.

My singing will be done privately in my spiritual shower.

WG: Do you want to know how much time will be spent singing in the heavenly choir? In heaven, it will be always Now. No measurement of time passing.

JL: So frequently it's the conditional,...

Do you want to know how much time will be spent singing in the heavenly choir? In heaven, it will be always Now. No measurement of time passing.

Jesus lives in us and we live in Him. His love for us prompts us to share that love with others.

Asked and answered!!!

So how much singing do you think will take place? Will you not desire to praise Him endlessly, the one who gave His life for you?"
"Every moment with Him, every second!"
...

Every moment with Him, every second! that we spend giving to and sharing with others (yes, in heaven!!!) will be a song of praise to Him!

And this begins at the moment of death --

"The topic of...

Huh? That makes no sense. There is no equivalency at all.

Direct question? Praising God through service is much more than just singing. Service to God is unselfish giving of money and your own abilities to Him and to others, empathy, kind actions toward...

And "service to God" is NOT singing. As I said, "Giving praise to God does not involve only singing."

I have absolutely no idea what you mean. Body and soul will be reunited on the Last Day.
...

Giving praise to God does not involve only singing.

I totally disagree. God has bigger and less egotistical plans for us than us just standing as a choir and singing His praises forever.

Nope, I'm not saying that.

BUT, the word "homosexual" was added to the Bible by translators centuries later. For instance, Leviticus 18:22 originally condemned pederasty/pedophilia (not...

Not at all! The Bible has been translated many times. The translators have not always been true to their calling. Plus, the Bible is full of poetry, history, allegories, parables, prophecies -- all...

Always for money and power.

You are subject to sin. You have no free will to do good?

You misread my comment. "...challenge others to consider and post their own views and then support them [ i.e., THOSE VIEWS] with cogent arguments." I don't see many cogent arguments.

It was called the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil, not the tree of good and evil. Big difference!

waltero, your post is full of contradictions. You don't even agree with yourself.

waltero...

In the past, when AMHD was roaring with activity, I rarely commented on Politics -- was preoccupied with the Christianity thread and Member threads. Now, one of the few active boards is Current...

I comment (now that Athos is gone) only because I get so bored playing Solitaire and watching Dr. Phil and Jeopardy on tv. Sometimes I watch the youtube videos of Marcel the Shell with Shoes On or...

Oh, we happily sparred!

Because that parent loves his/her child and wants to teach that child the correct and loving way to speak to others.

I very rarely comment on political threads. Not my thing. It used to be fun...

Who will the child ask for an explanation? His school friends? His teen neighbor? His foul-mouthed uncle? And he'll learn a few more expletives during the conversation -- and feel free to use them...

I agree -- not use them. But their children should get a calm explanation of what those words mean and why they're used.

Nope. I'm the only sane Republican here.

And loving parents must then explain to their children what those words mean and why they were used.

I'm a Republican.

That expletive is very common on tv, in videos, in ordinary conversation. If a child doesn't know what it means, it will fly right past him.

I'm betting if you ask Trump, "What happened in Ulvade,...

It wasn't "a contrary position" by an audience member; it was derision, major disrespect of cruelly murdered children and two teachers.

Nitpicker! Always looking a gift horse in the mouth!

Maybe in August the inflation rate will soar so you can bi+ch even more.

For JULY!!!!

"Thursday’s report from the Labor Department showed that the producer price index — which measures inflation before it reaches consumers — declined 0.5% in July. It was the first...

God created Adam and Eve, then gave them free will. He asked them not to do one simple thing. They decided to do that forbidden thing and thus they disobeyed God. Sin entered the world.

Are we on...

What are my contradictory views? I don't see any.

What's your definition of free will?

Thus, your comment says you are not free to do good. Everything you do is negative at one level or another. You have no choice (free will) in the matter.

In Christ, you do have the freedom (free...

What's the difference between this and what happened on January 6, 2021?

1. You have the free will to always do good things. Why don't you do good things all the time?

2. You have the free will to always do bad things. Why don't you do bad things all the time?

It was UNDER the rule of law. No problem. TrUmp was the one breaking the law, going outside the rule of law.

Do you do bad things each day?

Do you do good things each day?

We are all bound by sin, the condition called sin; we are subject to sinful actions, temptations to do wrong things. We have the inclination, a choice, free will, to do a sin, a bad thing. Or we can...

If I were Trump, I would have destroyed or rehomed anything that was incriminating.

Evasive? Any one of us can make the choice to do a bad thing or make the choice to do a good thing. Each of us has done bad things AND good things today.

You're a member of mankind. Do you ever do mean or bad things, break a commandment, i.e., sin? By choice? Do you ever choose to do good?

Read Genesis 3.

Please stop mixing up your reasoning points, your metaphors!

It's the whole ball of wax.

What does that have to do with this thread?

Plus, releasing the dominion of sin...

Like I've been saying, God gave mankind free will to do good or to do evil in this world. Every day we see evidence that that's going on -- the newspapers are full of mankind's cruelty to mankind...

Why is this? -- "Black students do not perform as well in academic areas as other students do, so any grading system or system of admittance will invariably result in lower performance on their part."

Good night! Husband is doing well. Thanks for asking.

I agree.

And for Oath Keepers and other Trump followers.
