"Their moral understanding is darkened and their reasoning is beclouded. [They are] alienated (estranged, self-banished) from the life of God [with no share in it; this is] because of the ignorance (the want of knowledge and perception, the willful blindness) that is deep-seated in them, due to their hardness of heart [to the insensitiveness of their moral nature]. In their spiritual apathy they have become callous and past feeling and reckless and have abandoned themselves [a prey] to unbridled sensuality, eager and greedy to indulge in every form of impurity [that their depraved desires may suggest and demand]" (Ephesians 4:18-19, Amplified Bible) Written hundreds of years ago. Confirmed in current humanity. Does this not strike us? Does it not touch you? 2 Likes |

Kay 17: Ok how does a chicken egg hatch into an eagle since they are both birds?!?!?!smh. Whatever comes out of a chicken egg is a bird, after the bird kind. Stop misinterpreting me ma'am. Birds produce birds, a chicken may not produce an eagle, but it produces a bird all the same. You're arguing over words. |

Kay 17: ^^where and when does the bible imply God is absolute love? He's love, he's also eternal judge. The judgements(not genocides) in the old testament bear witness. The judgement to come bears witness. 1 Like |

Kay 17: I made an error, infinity is a concept of limitless.fingerprints must be captured on a base all the same. Gods fingerprints and attributes are clearly inscribed on his base: creation. Men everywhere understand this. These days, we turn ourselves blind by denying what we know is true. |

Prediction: this thread will end up like the other one. Summary: though some items in that list are compromised to suit your atheistic world view, generally, yes. God has, and will kill people. Why? Well, because the wages of sin is death. Jesus is our solution, but if we reject him and continue in sin, we shall die. In those days, God carried out judgement differently and at his own timing. In these days, he has set a period of wrath and judgement. We're his witnesses. Preaching to the world to Repent! For the kingdom of God is at hand God is not just loving and rosy, he's also The Eternal Judge. Live with it. Think. Change. |

bolaino: tell her that the lord wants her to stop crying he has heard her supplications, she should remove that fear of death that she is having right now from her mind, and she should not allow the calls from her fake and pretentious friends make her scared. She will live and she will use her mouth to declare the works of the lord. The lord is with her. His hand is upon her life,tell her to start praising God, where ever she is. All her enemies will be put to shame. The same mouth that they are using to condemn her and wish her death that will be the same mouth that they will use to praise God with her. I am no ordinary man of God. As i say it so shall it be in jesus name. It is well with her soulall these things will not change her, it will only give her the idea of God being an agent of well-being. I believe we should tell her that she should REPENT OF HER SINS BY EMBRACING CHRIST JESUS because The wages of sin is death but the free-gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our lord. I believe we should tell her and our relatives and our neighbours and leaders and politicians this. Anyother thing is what their itching ears want to hear. 1 Like |

Kay 17: ^^how you try to use the logic of "chicken producing eagle" to negate the fact of "birds produce birds" is faulty and irrational thinking. |

Kay 17: This is an error. Infinity and Eternity are concepts of time and seperate and not to be mistaken for God's Being. Also time and time again, you keep mistaking God for a function of Creator and never prove his Being.what are you saying? Infinity is not a concept of time, time is a subset of infinity(eternity). Its a program that started, and will end. It was started for a purpose, it will be ended at the end of that purpose. How would you prove God's being? What do you want? The truth might be that either you do not know what you want and you simply want to dance around, or you ask for the unreasonable. The fact of God's being is instinctive in our consciousness. It is also written in our world and space time, it is also proved by his own infringement through supernatural works, through supernatural words, through witnesses and people, God has been working his purpose since the beginning. So what do you want? You are without excuse. |

Kay 17: ^^this is not true. Faith does not demand or tolerate contradictions. You are the one demanding and trying to force your contradictions on God. He is the same; God of all, you claim he is different and acts differently to different people. Is this your "reasoning"? You're a human being, are you merciful? Do you also feel wrath sometimes? Think before you say things like this. |

Logicboy03: Eternity is a paradox. Doesnr apply to living things.death is also a paradox then. It doesn't apply to living things. |

Kay 17: A God with two different testaments/wills?! The difference is crystal clear. One God was the God of Israel, the other a universal God.you speak ignorantly of things you do not know of. God is still the same. The reason grace is available now is because of Jesus Christ and our faith in God, not works. 1 Like |

Logicboy03: God is not subject to time but describes himself with time. "I am".......he describes himself as ever-present. I believe "I AM" is one of the greatest definitions of God's reality ever put forth by himself. God IS. He's present in past and future. And in eternity. Don't think I'm giving him my attributes, it's there in the bible. |

plaetton: Always a copout. aManFromMars: THE TRUE CHRISTIAN IS A MIRAGE. A standard that one can never truly attain, no matter how great their effort.someone who has repented from sins does not make a practice of sinning. There's no such thing as a "good" christian. Making this kind of statements show that you do not even know what christianity is, or what it entails. Mtchew. Logicboy03: There can be a cause but then it would be subject to another cause since it can't cause itself.....God is not bound by space time. God is uncaused, self-existent, conscious, direct, all-powerful, all-knowing, ever-present. He described himself as the "I AM" |

Kay 17: Hope you know that chickens and eagles are of the same kind, yet different species.so? What I meant was that kinds reproduce according to their kind; birds reproduce birds, inspite of variation and adaptation and speciation, birds reproduce birds. My classification is actually scientific. It is also bibilical. I hope you know its the same classification used by the biochemists in the op. |

There must be a cause. Non-conscious randomness cannot reproduce directed and organized orderliness and consciousness of life we see in the universe. |
