Hi, I'm Alsharad...
Works come as a result of faith, not in conjunction with them immediately. The faith is the necessary component. For by grace we have...
It is certain that Catholocism (both Roman and Eastern Orthodox) are Christian. I really don't know that much about EO Catholocism, but I can...
By that I meant that you must adress the character of the historical Christ. I believe the question was why Christians have the "my way/highway"...
Christians believe that Christ is God. While on earth, Christ said "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No man comes to the Father but...
That is part of the problem that I have with the futurist model. The thing is, the scripture has a definite, historical, cultural setting. Does...
Let me clarify my position here. I believe that MOST of Revelation has already happened in a historical context. I think that we are currently...
Oh. So THAT is figurative while the rest of Revelation is literal? More importantly, do you think that it is soon or near now? Why not in a...

Personally, I prefer to interpret the Bible (Revelation in particular) using a proper hermeneutic and careful exegesis, not using USAToday or the...
Just an aside (I don't have time to write more), but right now, where I am, the sun has barely risen and it is still dark. Make sure that you do...
Sorry, but there is simply no evidence that the New Testament has been altered. In terms of accurate transmission, it is the most reliable...
And I understand and respect that you are not interested in arguments over old texts. However, these old texts claim to be the written word of...
That is true. But, if the same book about WWII claimed to be a record of the events of the war, mentioning Hitler and Churchill would be...
That is simply inaccurate. An eyewitness does not need to be alive in order to be an eyewitness. If the eyewitness himself writes down his own...
Let me clarify: They are historically verifiable, eyewitness accounts. Both Matthew and John are direct eyewitness accounts. Mark and Luke are...
And your proof? Where is the hard evidence? Where are the writings or the commentaries from concurrent authors that Nicea had ulterior motives?...
ASIDE: He used parables and hyperbole because they both illustrate truths more completely than a lengthy (and complicated) discourse on...
