1	Did you know (Hos 4:6)...	Matt 22:29	Radioman	45976
	Did you know (Hos 4:6)... "I will destroy my people because they are ignorant"? NLT Matthew 22:29 Jesus replied, "Your problem is that you don't know the Scriptures, and you don't know the power of God." Amplified Hos 4:6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge; because you [the priestly nation] have rejected knowledge, I will also reject you that you shall be no priest to Me; seeing you have forgotten the law of your God, I will also forget your children. GOD'S WORD Hosea 4:6 I will destroy my people because they are ignorant. You have refused to learn, so I will refuse to let you be my priests. You have forgotten the teachings of your God, so I will forget your children. New Living Translation Amos 8:11 "The time is surely coming," says the Sovereign LORD, "when I will send a famine on the land - not a famine of bread or water but of hearing the words of the LORD. 8:12 People will stagger everywhere from sea to sea, searching for the word of the LORD, running here and going there, but they will not find it. NASB Matthew 22:29 But Jesus answered and said to them, "You are mistaken, not understanding the Scriptures nor the power of God. AMPLIFIED Matthew 22:29 But Jesus replied to them, You are wrong because you know neither the Scriptures nor God's power.
2	WHO are the "sons of God"?	Gen 6:4	Radioman	32665
	WHO are the "sons of God"? WHAT are the Nephilim? I DON'T KNOW is playing third base. And, frankly, my dear, I don't care! Examples of far more important questions include: What think ye of Christ? whose son is he? How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation? Therefore, since all these things will be dissolved, what manner of persons ought you to be in holy conduct and godliness? Radioman
3	Please accept my apology.	Bible general Archive 1	Radioman	8184
	EdB: I am reposting this in case you didn't see it when it was originally posted on Thu 06/21/01, 9:54pm. I was so wrong when I replied to you the way I did on the 21st. Every day that has gone by since then, I feel worse and am only confirmed in the conviction that I have wronged you. Please re-consider my apology. I mean it with all my heart. I have nothing against you, EdB, I honestly don't. My original apology follows: Thu 06/21/01, 9:54pm Please excuse my unintentionally late reply to your posting of 12:52pm. I only saw it a few minutes ago. Before I say anything else, let me say: I missed seeing and was completely unaware of your apology until just a few minutes ago. (I don't know how I overlooked your apology, but I did.) I regret and apologize for any and all harsh remarks that I posted to you between 12:52pm and the writing of this note (approx. 9:00pm). For such replies of mine to be posted after your apology only compounds my offense. I gladly choose to forget our heated exchange and put it in the past. I freely, joyfully, sincerely accept your apology. I must apologize to you for my overreaction to your comment. Will you forgive me? I assure you I think none the worse of you. It is I who hope that you think none the worse of me. (But I fear that you do because a week has gone by and you have not replied to my apology. If you do think the worse of me, I couldn't blame you. I admit I was entirely out of line when I posted what I did on the 20th and 21st.) Now the sword that I forged is in my own heart. The fact that I offended you is not something I take lightly or casually. My past harsh words and feelings weigh heavily upon me. EdB, I would rather be your friend than not. Your servant, Radioman
4	Corrected, accepted, none of the above?	NT general Archive 1	Radioman	8109
	Where in Acts 17:11 (NIV) do you see the words "corrected" or "accepted"? I posted a note to Steve Butler on 06-21-2001, 3:36pm. The last thing I said to him in my note was: "You have a real knack for changing the subject, ignoring the question, and then asking...new and different QUESTIONS that you made up." On 06-21-2001, 4:11pm, Steve replied to me. To answer my questions, he wrote SEVEN (7) MORE QUESTIONS, which is what I expected. Also note: Nowhere in Acts 17:11 (NIV) do you see the words "corrected" or "accepted." They just aren't there. Acts 17:11 (NIV) STILL does not say, "The Bereans corrected Paul and he accepted it."
5	Haven't we had enough?	Rom 5:6	Radioman	8037
	Enough is enough already. ezekiel: No offense intended. I merely pose the question: Haven't we all had about enough of this ceaseless debate over Calvinism vs Arminianism (the sovereignty of God vs the responsibility of man)? Literally HUNDREDS of entries have been posted regarding this question. (Please see the tree (thread) "Christ dying only for elect?" and "What does Bible teach on election?")
6	"Many false prophets will arise ..."	John 10:27	Radioman	7914
	(The following has been re-posted to keep it in the right thread. My apologies for posting it twice.) Matt 24:11 "Many false prophets will arise and will mislead many." I have a question for all who would defend the word of faith movement and those who would defend its super-star preachers, including Kenneth Copeland, Kenneth Hagin, Fred Price, Paul and Jan Crouch, John Avanzini, Benny Hinn, Jesse Duplantis, and Marilyn Hickey, and the many other evangelists, teachers, and writers promoting the teaching. For a moment, forget their unbiblical doctrine of the prosperity gospel (i.e., name it and claim it). What about their heretical, near blasphemous teachings concerning the nature of God, Christ and man, as summarized below? "In brief, the teachings of these men may be summarized as follows: God created man in “God’s class,” as “little gods,” with the potential to exercise the “God kind of faith” in calling things into existence and living in opportunity, however, by rebelling against God in the Garden and taking upon ourselves Satan’s nature. To correct this situation, Jesus Christ became a man, died spiritually (thus taking upon Himself Satan’s nature), went to Hell, was “born again,” rose from the dead with God's nature again, and then sent the Holy Spirit so that the Incarnation could be duplicated in believers, thus fulfilling their calling to be little gods. Since we are called to experience this kind of life now, we should be successful in every area of our lives. To be in debt, then, or be sick, or (as is often taught) be left by one’s spouse, and not to have these problems go away by “claiming” God’s promises, shows a lack of faith" (Christian Research Institute).

8	One God; Calvin is his prophet?	Bible general Archive 1	Radioman	6565
	Dear Dr. Sounding Brass and Professor Tinkling Cymbal: Though you understand all mysteries and all knowledge, if you have not love, you are nothing. You believe that there is one God and that Calvin is his prophet; you do well: the devils also believe, and tremble. But will you know, O vain man, that knowledge without love profits you nothing?
9	Why?	Bible general Archive 1	Radioman	6554
	Retxar says: "If we use Calvin's example of proper teatment of those we disagree with, we could not only use harsh language, we could also burn them at the stake!" Responding directly to Retxar's previous allegation, Reformer Joe asks "Name me two people that Calvin burned at the stake." In a dazzling display of wit, Retxar replies: "Two people that Calvin burned at the stake? I give up, who were they?" I have a question of my own for Retxar: Why do you say, "I give up, who were they?" You, not Reformer Joe, YOU are the one who brought up the subject of Calvin burning people at the stake. So, when asked about it, why do you pretend that you never heard of it? Do you think you will convince anyone of anything through the use of senseless remarks and babbling?
10	Human responsibility, divine sovereignty	Rom 9:19	Radioman	5897
	Human responsibility-divine sovereignty. Rom. 9:19-20 "If God's choice of the elect is unconditional, does this rule out human responsibility? Paul asks and answers that very question in Romans 9:19-20. He says God's choice of the elect is an act of mercy. Left to themselves, even the elect would persist in sin and be lost, because they are taken from the same fallen lump of clay as the rest of humanity. God alone is responsible for their salvation, but that does not eradicate the responsibility of those who persist in sin and are lost--because they do it willfully, and not under compulsion. They are responsible for their sin, not God. "The Bible affirms human responsibility right alongside the doctrine of divine sovereignty. Moreover, the offer of mercy in the gospel is extended to all alike. Isaiah 55:1 and Revelation 22:17 call "whosoever will" to be saved. Isaiah 45:22 and Acts 17:30 command all men to turn to God, repent and be saved. First Timothy 2:4 and 2 Peter 3:9 tell us that God is not willing that any should perish, but desires that all should be saved. Finally, the Lord Jesus said that, "the one who comes to Me I will certainly not cast out" (John 6:37). "In summary, we can say: The ultimate question of why God chose some for salvation and left others in their sinful state is one that we, with our finite knowledge, cannot answer. We do know that God's attributes always are in perfect harmony with each other, so that God's sovereignty will always operate in perfect harmony with His goodness, love, wisdom, and justice" (article by John MacArthur at www.gty.org - listed in Issues and Answers archives).
