Firstly the Bible says nothing about the Pope. Secondly Catholics think the first Pope was Peter not Paul. Thirdly, the majority of the New Testament was written by Paul. The reed sea (probably the Biblical Red Sea) does have a low tide which makes it possible to cross by foot - this...

Booze Zombie, your attempt at humor shows that you need to please graduate from 1st grade atheism and understand what a "that's just liking saying" and "straw man" argument is

But you've forgotten to realize that you have used NO VERSES to support your argument. Here's some I've collected off a few sites. GOD CHOSE YOU (in the beginning) - Mat 25:34 Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom...

Sneakypenguin, I propose a more logical conclusion that the Bible makes - God has foreknowledge about everything because he has determined every single action for his own ends. For me it doesn't make sense that God can see the future (as you propose) but does and can do nothing about it - if...

Sneaky Penguin, you totally don't understand predestination - I encourage you to read passages in the Bible that talk about it. Romans 9: "What then shall we say? Is God unjust? Not at all! For he says to Moses, "I will have mercy on whom I have mercy, and I will have...

The Bible says evangelism is for the most part, how predestined and "elect" people come to faith. Acts 13:48 "When the Gentiles heard this, they were glad and honored the word of the Lord; and all who were appointed for eternal life believed."

Haha..reformation was 16th century clint.. lets be honest the Church can mean anything nowadays - a bunch of dudes wearing dresses in gay hats trying to legalize paedophilia. Jesus says the only real Church are those people who live reality with him as God.

When Catholics ban priests from marrying they go horny for each other and then go for children. The Bible lists banning marriage as a sin and a sign of false teaching - so blame the Catholic Church. Same goes for stupid Catholic rules about foods. Its a joke and the Bible openly calls the...

There is one concept of the Church in the Bible - which is people who believe in Jesus. It's not defined by any denomination or preference as Catholics would have you believe, the Bible is clear that the true Church - which never has disunity - is the Church of true believers scattered...

Once again, 1st grade atheist school answer. Dawkins would give you an A+ I'll repeat. Why does an intelligent universe not have an intelligent source?

Typecast - can you back up your nihilist conclusion? Because to me it sounded like your argument was a bunch of conclusions without a premise. You obviously have NO clue who Jesus is. Matt 10:34 - "I did not come to bring peace, but a sword" And "a man" - have you read the claims of...

Half of what you said was insightful - the other half proved my point. You cannot refute predestination from a Biblical perspective. Proverbs 16:4 "The LORD works out everything for his own ends? even the wicked for a day of disaster" Proverbs 16:9 "In his heart a man plans...

And regarding predestination; it is impossible to argue AGAINST predestination from the Bible. And also it is entirely impossible to argue against predestination from the PREMISE that God is Sovereign.

I'm not using these terms with any specific scientific intention - by laws, I simply mean the universe works in a particular framework; with realities and boundaries. The thing is I am a philosophy student not a science student as I guessed you've picked up. Why? You gave no premise to that...

Essentially nothing - both testaments are centred around the life, person and work of the man Jesus. The Old in anticipation of his coming - The New in response to his first coming and in anticipation of his second. It follows a simple motif too: The Bible starts with the beginning of the...
