I am sorry Greg,
firstly I was busy yesterday afternoon so I am slow in answering your invitation and secondly I can only go out at nights in school holidays because of ‘family’ responsibilities.

I can get out during the day and would immensely enjoy a coffee

false teachers like EP

Cheryl,

People can make stupid statements. I do it.
However understanding the bible has nothing to do with intelligence as God tells us.
Paul does not tell the people at Corinth they are stupid but they have to grow.

We are to discern arguments as for example we are constantly told in the N/T to watch out for false teachers.

Homer, I will provide that evidence when I get a chance.

For the record, I am an evangelical. Staunch.

PGP, you say
‘you often speak with hatred, not love.’.
Please show ANY evidence of this. This again highlights the double standards of liberals on this blog.
notice how al of the evanglicals who have spoken out on this topic are not comenting now.
This is because they have been regular and persistent victims of swearing and other abuse which very few people ever say boo about.
also note Jesus made anger the equivalent of murder.
Just who regularly makes angry and abusive remarks towards commenters?

I have yet to hear from even liberal hebrew or greek lecturers who believe this subject is not clear.

Lance usualy brings every excuse one can think of of why homosexuality is not sinful and they are regularly demolished. The Scholarly work is mostly missing in the theories.

Cheryl, a bit of hyperbole I think.
‘you won’t convince us with your admonitions about our stupidity, or your wailing about our lack of faith.’
please show where I have said you were stupid?

Bec,
you ask the question and I answered it.

I have never talked about rule based faith anywhere.
I have said we still live by the law but it provides NO salvation because we brake them every day.
If one doesn’t recognise that then you don’t recognise what faith is about.

I have shown on this thread that Helminiak’s theory on toevah has no legs.

I simply made the point that if we inserted adultery instead of homosexuality there would be no debate.

They are both sinful acts yet people are wishing to deny only one of them.

Homer, your post at 260 doesn’t even make any sense. I honestly don’t know what you’re on about a lot of the time.

Homer, I wish you could understand the joy that exists beyond a rule-bound faith, and joy that comes from realising that we know nothing, and that we are completely dependent on God to reveal himself/herself to us.
