Re: Is it rational to believe in IC?
2. Those who formed the Canon were either inspired by God to select the books that they chose, or they were not. Did it require inspiration to formulate a Canon? Or was it a recognition of the inspiration of certain letters, based on the criteria of authorship and overall consistency? This wouldn't...

As far as Hinn's gospel goes , i'm not an expert on him but he does deliver the basic gospel message plus he claims that Jesus heals and he attempts to demonstrate this. Now it's easy to critisize him but i think Hinn has now been out there for three decades doing this and if something is a sham , ...

Or what about another option? In Jesus day, the Jews expected that the kingdom of God would have national borders and would conquer the pagans by wiping them off the face of the earth. Perhaps in this parable, Jesus is countering this nationalistic and political view by describing that the kingdom o...

Re: Benny Hinn
I don't know Benny personally, nor do I follow his ministry. Some of my close friends, however, know him very well, and they assure me that he is quite sincere and devoted to Jesus and certainly not a charlatan. His style may be offensive to some and at times his teaching has raised eyebrows, but t...

I found the book deep and theologically rich. Some of the parts of it challenged me to remember that God is not easily fit into a box or systematic theology, regardless of how much one wants that to be true. I also appreciated the author tackling the question of God's goodness when evil exists with ...

Chariots of Fire is a movie about the part of Liddell's life before he went to China as a missionary. It contrasts Godly desire and commitment with selfish ambition as exhibited by the 2 main characters, Liddell and Abrams.
It is really good and I'd recommend it.

* What does it mean to have trust in God, if, when you trust in God, your needs dont seem to be met? Have they considered their expenditures? It may be that there may be expenses that have been classified as needs, when they really aren't necessary. Or perhaps it is a necessary expense, but one tha...

ALERT - More Techie talk! I'm guessing that the "poster_id" in the [phpbb_posts] table is Joined to "user_id" in the [phpbb_users] table. Notice also that the username is copied to the [phpbb_posts] for every post. I'm betting that if dummy guest accounts could be inserted into the users table for ...
