I spent years in Hawaii, and I don't think I saw Hawaiian pizza the whole time I was there. I didn't see 'Hawaiian punch' either. I recall someone there saying we don't drink that stuff, and then comment on the local brand of canned juice they do drink. There might have been more than one...

By some crossdressing homosexual the school cannot legally now refuse to hire because he his a homosexual, who enjoys spanking little boys. I don't trust the morals of a lot of teachers these days.

I'm very suspicious of any kimchi taking like Italian marinara sauce. Maybe it's not the good kind of kimchi or I haven't tasted the same kind of marinara sauce. I did notice Koreans would eat pizzas that seem otherwise normal at Pizza 2000, except that they had corn on them. There was also...

Because some people don't know what's good. :) It depends on the combo of what's on the pizza. I've had some nasty hamburger pizza. Some of these pictures are weird. I'd don't want dill pickles on pizza. I don't care for bacon on pizza, even a meat lover's style pizza. It just doesn't...

I could also imagine there could be scenarios these days where a child is punished for not calling a man 'her' or a woman 'him.'

@TruthDefender Sahih al‑Bukhari 3448 (also 2222 in some numbering) Narrated Abu Huraira: “By Him in Whose Hand my soul is, the son of Mary will soon descend among you and will judge the people with justice." There is truth here, because God will judge men by the one Man, He has chosen, and has...

Surah AlMahdi 4:6 وَقَفَّيْنَا عَلَىٰٓ ءَاثَـٰرِهِم بِعِيسَى ٱبْنِ مَرْيَمَ مُصَدِّقًۭا لِّمَا بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ مِنَ ٱلتَّوْرَىٰةِ ۖ وَءَاتَيْنَـٰهُ ٱلْإِنجِيلَ فِيهِ هُدًۭى وَنُورٌۭ وَمُصَدِّقًۭا لِّمَا بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ مِنَ ٱلتَّوْرَىٰةِ وَهُدًۭى وَمَوْعِظَةًۭ لِّلْمُتَّقِينَ ٤٦ Then in the...

How is there any way to draw a conclusion from what you have presented that there is some sort of contradiction?

Tell us the secrets of the Greek that you believe prove your thesis. Let's look at some ideas throughout the passage: " For then shall be great tribulation...." 29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars...

How is any of this evidence for Jesus coming back twice? That's a pretty big deal, and not a reasonable explanation for the tension he describes... of all these catastrophies happening, but there still being wedding and people saying 'peace and safety'. Of course, there are other...

Show us this.

No it does not. You need to read the rest of the epistle. Paul warned that eating meat in an idols temple was fellowshipping with demons and warned that it might provoke the Lord to jealousy. He allowed for eating meat at feasts and purchased in the marketplace without asking if it were...

If there be no interpreter, let him keep silent in the church and let him speak to himself and to God.

But of course it does not mean that in I Corinthians 14 because we have an interpreter interpreting the message of a speaker in a language so that the congregation can be edified (v. 28). So 'interpretation' is not referring to some mystical ability to perceive the words of the Gospel.

There were numerous examples of speaking in tongues recorded in the early Pentecostal movement where onlookers understood the language. The Azusa Street Revival is widely considered the birthplace of the movement, though there was speaking in tongues at some meetings before that. Seymore, the...

The problem here is you are plugging your own meaning into a word that already has meaning. The word translated 'tongue' here means tongue, and it also means language. Even in English 'tongue' can mean language especially in older writings or poetic writings. First century Jews and Chrsitians...

I think I know what you mean, but English and Spanish didn't really exist in the first century. They spoke languages that existed back then in Acts 2. In Acts 2, the disciples spoke in the languages of various people who had come to Jerusalem, Jewish diaspora and proselytes. Then Peter stood...

@birdie That's almost like a loosey goosey Bahai style of interpretatoin. Your interpretation does not hold up to even a casual reading of the relevant texts.

I agree with this. I know some Pentecostals try to make tongues for prayer and tongues to be interpreted into a different 'type' of speaking in tongues. But the wording of I Corinthians 14 treats them as the same category of speaking in tongues, as if the tongues that are mysteries that can be...

I agree with the general gist of the conclusion. In these two examples, though, Why would either of these 'Meaning' statements be __the__ reason here. John had already said that one mightier than he would come who would baptized with the Holy Ghost, and this saying was referred to already in...
