Could you tell us, who is the author of this daily devotional? If the author is you, would you say so? If it is not you, would you mind telling us who did write it? Normally, IF quoting another publication, one would give the author, title, page number, name of publisher, date of publishing. ************************************ Main Entry: pla·gia·rize Function: verb Inflected Form(s): -rized; -riz·ing Etymology: plagiary Date: 1716 transitive senses : to steal and pass off (the ideas or words of another) as one's own : use (another's production) without crediting the source intransitive senses : to commit literary theft : present as new and original an idea or product derived from an existing source |

104 | The beast with seven heads | Revelation | Radioman | 1576 | ||
Someone knows, but no one will tell. There are several different interpretations of Revelation in general, and of your question in particular. As sure as someone posts an answer, someone else will reply condemning and correcting the first answer. I recommend you go to bible.crosswalk.com and click on Commentaries. | ||||||
105 | Remember the rest of Christianity? | Bible general Archive 1 | Radioman | 1574 | ||
Some of the doctrines and dogmas put forth here are 1 percent or less Scripture and 99 percent human reasoning, and not always sound reasoning at that. | ||||||
106 | Malachi-John 17 brain teaser | Malachi | Radioman | 1573 | ||
To be on the safe side, I capitalized EVERY pronoun in John 17:1-26. The total was not evenly divisible by three. Did I do it wrong? | ||||||

Thank you for an apt verse and for reminding us. | ||||||
108 | ELOI, ELOI, LAMA SABACHTHANI? | Mark 15:34 | Radioman | 1571 | ||
To the question re Mark 15:34, someone gave the following reply: "That's the way I see it too. It's too bad no one responded to you directly." Really? It seems to me you responded directly to the question. Re the person who wrote the comment: "It's too bad no one responded to you directly." 1) When he says "no one responded", he included himself. If he meant to exclude himself, the grammatically correct phrasing would be: "no one ELSE responded." 2) However, if he means it's too bad no one, including him, responded directly, then I have no objection to his phrasing. | ||||||
109 | Ideal, but prerequisite? | 1 Timothy | Radioman | 1570 | ||
It is written: "But the Spirit explicitly says that in later times some will fall away from the faith, paying attention to deceitful spirits and doctrines of demons, by means of the hypocrisy of liars seared in their own conscience as with a branding iron, men who forbid marriage..." 1 Tim 3:1-4 NASB | ||||||
110 | The sensational or the reliable? | Revelation | Radioman | 1569 | ||
The sensational or the reliable? If I want sensational, I'll watch Jerry Springer. | ||||||
111 | Best commentary on Revelation? | Revelation | Radioman | 1568 | ||
Yours is a good answer. Forget the sensational, turn to the reliable and trustworthy. Not everyone will agree with the men cited in your answer. But, surely one can do better than to go running after Van Impe or many of the preachers on TBN. Why do they call it Trinity Broadcasting Network when they allow preachers to be on who don't even believe in the Trinity? | ||||||
112 | 14 doctorates hummm | Revelation | Radioman | 1567 | ||
If Van Impe has 14 doctorates, he does a good job of hiding that fact. | ||||||
113 | Do you believe once save, always saved. | Luke 23:43 | Radioman | 1299 | ||
I would like to submit Part One . . . I would like to submit for your consideration the following quotation re: the never ending debate over once saved, always saved (which, I remind you, is a term used ONLY by the opponents of Eternal Security). I offer this quotation without any comment of my own. Note that I am not claiming to agree or disagree with this position. I merely point it out. . . . The following is a quotation from a denominational publication stating the position of the denomination on this issue. If you are not happy with what you read, don't complain to me. I didn't write it. I never said this is so or not so. OK? . . . "In view of the biblical teaching that the security of the believer depends on a living relationship with Christ (John 15:6); in view of the Bible's call to a life of holiness (1 Peter 1:16; Hebrews 12:14); in view of the clear teaching that a man may have his part taken out of the Book of Life (Revelation 22:19); and in view of the fact that one who believes for a while can fall away (Luke 8:13); The General Council of the __________ __ ___disapproves of the unconditional security position which holds that it is impossible for a person once saved to be lost. . . . "The Christian religious world divides basically into two schools of thought concerning the spiritual destiny of people. One is Calvinism, named after John Calvin (early 16the century); the other is Arminianism, traced back to James Arminius (late 16th century). The theological debate is thus centuries old. (continues in Part Two) |

114 | Do you believe once save, always saved. | Luke 23:43 | Radioman | 1298 | ||
(I would like to submit Part Two.) . . . "Calvinism teaches (1) the total depravity of man, (2) God's unconditional election (or predestination) of certain ones to saved and certain others to be lost, (3) that Christ died only for the elect, not for every person, (4) that God's saving grace toward the elect cannot be resisted, and (5) that once a person is saved, he can never lose his salvation. . . . "Arminianism teaches something different on each of these points: (1) Though born a sinner, mankind is given a spark of divine grace that enables him to respond positively to God. (2) God does not arbitrarily consign some people to eternal damnation; their willful rejection of God's salvation makes them responsible. (3) Christ died for every person, even though some refuse to accept the provision for their salvation. (4) No person is forced against his or her will to become a Christian (5) One's salvation can be lost through willful disobedience. . . . "Rather than the unconditional predestination of Calvinism, Arminianism teaches conditional predestination. We are predestined to eternal life if we accept God's provision of salvation. . . . "The __________ __ ___ leans toward Arminianism, though it accepts scriptural truth found in both positions. We agree with the Calvinist emphasis on God's sovereignty or supreme power and authority. But we also firmly believe the Arminian emphasis on mankind's free will and responsibility for his actions and choices. We believe the Bible teaches both truths.." So there it is: Calvinism, Arminianism, a little of each, or neither. Take your pick. |

115 | What would be considered the age? | Bible general Archive 1 | Radioman | 1076 | ||
P.S. The same logic would cause one to conclude that since the word "Trinity" does not appear in the Bible, then there is no such thing as the Trinity. The same thing could be said of television, radio, the Internet, etc.: well, since those words don't appear in the Bible, then those things don't exist. Whatever. | ||||||
116 | What would be considered the age? | Bible general Archive 1 | Radioman | 1075 | ||
When someone accurately states that there is no mention of an "age of accountability" in Scripture, WHY then do you come back with "So there is no age where a person is considered responsible for their actions"? All that was said was that the term "age of accountability" does not appear in the Bible. No one said there is no age where a person is considered responsible for their actions. | ||||||
117 | Lure or Norse demon? | Rev 19:4 | Radioman | 1004 | ||
Bologna or baloney. No matter which way you spell it, it's still a cold, dead, unappetizing commodity full of additives and other impurities. So is the book of Urantia. | ||||||
118 | When is a plumb line true? | Bible general Archive 1 | Radioman | 1003 | ||
How can a man be plumb lyin' and true at the same time? (It's a joke.) Seriously, yours is an excellent answer. Keep them coming. I commend you on your answer, with which I agree. Thanks for attempting to restore some balance and Christian charity to this endless debate. In Christ, Radioman | ||||||
119 | Is there an age of accountability? | Bible general Archive 1 | Radioman | 1002 | ||
P.S. . . . Joseph, thank you for your question. After all the sometimes heated, sometimes confused and confusing debate over election, Calvinism or whatever one wishes to call it, I needed a good laugh. Thanks for providing me with one. |
