    yes, using God's perspective, do you believe that this is a lie? "Now I am going to tell you about this ‘unknown god.’ He is the God who made the world." https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Acts+17&version=NIRV

    well how about first we talk about what Paul said, then we can see if or in what way it applies to Muslims.

    well, I'm not Catholic, but I see it this way Ecclesiastes 12:11 The words of the wise are like goads; and like nails well fastened are words from the masters of assemblies, which are given from one shepherd. many sources, one Shepherd. say, my brother garee, here's a question we could...

    following along those lines, the part of the lumen gentium that talks about Muslims clearly draws heavily on Paul's talk to the Athenians, imo. Paul adopts a respectful tone to them. if a person doesn't understand or accept what Paul says on the areopagus, they won't understand when Catholics...

    part of loving other people is looking for the best in them. Love never gives up. Love cares more for others than for self. Love doesn’t want what it doesn’t have. Love doesn’t strut, Doesn’t have a swelled head, Doesn’t force itself on others, Isn’t always “me first,” Doesn’t fly off the...

    do you agree, then, that the Athenians were worshipping the true God along with other gods?

    I hear what you're saying, and again I mean this very gently, imo, you don't accept what Paul says to the Athenians. when you come to a place where you can accept it, then I think what Vatican II said about Muslims will make more sense to you.

    God lives in anyone who agrees that Jesus is the Son of God. This kind of person remains joined to God. 16 So we know that God loves us. We depend on it. https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1+John+4&version=NIRV

    the one we've been talking about, which I think resulted in a temporary ceasefire, I am in favor of. but in general, those whose only purpose is to pretend that we all believe mostly the same things, I'm not in favor of. I don't see the point to them. but back to the positive side of things, I...

    of course it's not biblical to pray to another God. in one of the articles that you posted, I believe the pope made it clear that he was praying only to the Christian God. is it biblical to be around non-christians and all pray at the same time? sounds okay to me. if that meeting results in...

    actually, no. the question that I was answering was: would an evil, satanic one world religion would be satanic. the answer to that is yes. for the question: will there be a one world government? again I say, yes, one centered around God. for the question: will there be an evil, satanic One...

    the short answer is that it's how English is used. "Now I am going to tell you about this ‘unknown god.’ 24 “He is the God who made the world." https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Acts+17&version=NIRV "he" up above can really only refer to "this ‘unknown god’. two things further: if...

    If Scripture says God is a God of Justice then why is there so much INjustice?

    we can rest assured that we win! In all these things we are more than winners! We owe it all to Christ, who has loved us. 38 I am absolutely sure that not even death or life can separate us from God’s love. Not even angels or demons, the present or the future, or any powers can separate us. 39...

    my brother Jackson, I think you got the wrong impression from the article. I'm not in favor of Christians participating in interfaith gatherings. at the same time, I don't want to sit in judgment of a Christian who did. imo, that would be unnecessary judging. yes I believe God is a trinity...

    I only watch the small bit of the video, it's 14 minutes long. it looks like it's from 1986. to me, the world doesn't look any closer to a single religion today. we can find all kinds of things on the internet. it turns out Lutherans, Methodists, and Baptists are involved in the one world...

    I think we may be making progress, then! just to be sure, you believe that this statement is false: "He (the ‘unknown god’ that the Athenians were worshipping) is the God who made the world."
