Mary gave her permission.

James 2:17 "So also faith of itself, if it does not have works, is dead." James 2:24 "See how a person is justified by works and not by faith alone." James 2:26 "For just as a body without a spirit is dead, so also faith without works is dead. "

CyberRed, That has got to be one of the most brilliant explanations for the Trinity. Great job!!

1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 "For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in...

Rapture theology is discredited throughout Scripture.

"The Pope reviewed the material and declared Mary Magdalene a prostitute." HUH??? Mary Magdalene has been declared a saint in the Catholic Church. "Purgatory and limbo were never in the Bible to begin with." Limbo is not official Church teaching. Jesus refers to Purgatory as a jail...

CyberRed, You said, "I believe that "666" is a computer-related." Scripture tells us otherwise. It says it is the name of a man. Rev 13:18 "Wisdom is needed here; one who understands can calculate the number of the beast, for it is a number that stands for a person. His number is six...

In Revelations, we are told the number of the beast is a man's name (13:18). Not coincidentally, the persecuting, pagan Roman Empire was headed in the A.D. 60s by Caesar Nero, whose name happened to add up to 666 in the Hebrew system of letters and numbers. (In Hebrew, "Caesar Nero" = "NRWN...

Liebling, You wrote "Well Jesus did not say "Follow the church," or "Follow the people." He only say, "Follow me" (Matthew 9:9; Mark 8:34; John 12:26). " Scripture tells use: Matthew 18:15-18 "If your brother sins against you, go and tell him his fault, between you and him alone. If...

Tousi, LOL. It's really kind of fun using old ASL signs instead of the newer signs. Once I signed "sleep in" with a CODA interpreter using the old ASL and the interpreter burst into a large smile. I asked her "what?" - with one handshape moving back and forth :laugh2: and she said she was...

The "Rapture" is a false and dangerous theory which is rejected by most Christians. "Rapture" contridicts Scripture. Rapture does not equal "end times".

The ASL idiom "swallow fish" means "gullible".

In my area, the old ASL sign for WHAT is the number-one handshape shaken back and forth and it doesn't mean WHERE. The old sign for where was simply both hands with opened hands with palms facing up shaken back and forth. The reason this was signed for what is that it was a condensed version...

Hallowe'en has nothing to do with witchcraft or Satanism. Just check out the following websites: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/national/horizon/oct98/hallo101498.htm http://www.historychannel.com/exhibits/halloween/index.jsp?page=origins http://www.hallowfreaks.com/pumpkins.html

The Mormons would debate US about their teachings. I really don't know of any churches or sects which have secret teachings or practices. Oops. I take that back. I believe only Mormons are allowed into their temples and there are some Mormon rites which only Mormons are allowed to witness...

HUMANS, Reba, they are all HUMANS. They are not gods! A day to a HUMAN is 24 hours. A day to GOD is like 1,000 years. GOD told the Creation story. God is not restricted to a 24-hour day. HUMANS told the story of the resurrection. To a HUMAN, a day is 24-hours. BTW, there...

Reba, You mentioned that Christ's resurrection occured 3 days after his death and not 3,000. You asked (indirectly) - why if time to God is like 1000 years is to a day - why wasn't Christ dead for 3,000 years. The Creation story was told by God The resurrection story was told by...

"Jesus was resurrected after three days, not 3,000 years." That's right. And no matter how hard you try to twist the issue, the apostles, his followers, Mary, the Ancient Romans, Harold, Nero, and Christians are not mini-gods and/or mini-goddesses. The gospel of Jesus' resurrection was...

"The first day, to honor our Lord's resurrection." - And where does Scripture allow you to do this? It specifically states on the seventh day, the Sabbath. It does not say on the first day. ------------------------------------------ Here is a cut and paste of a dialog someone and I had...

The hidden prophesy was discovered hundreds of years ago by St Augustine.
