I can't believe you are playing this game. And you say you taught Sunday school??? You should know this.
Identifying the profits of God are laid down in the Bible. Anyone can do it. He meets all the criteria according to the Old AND New Testaments.
Once Christ came in the flesh, the era of prophets was over. We had information directly from the source at that point. Please. Share with us the other prophets that have existed since Paul...
Among other things. Jeeesh.
You want to make this claim, but you can't actually back it up. Even Paul didn't refer to himself as a prophet. A prophet had a different role than an apostle.
Yes, but NOT mutually exclusive as I said.
The era of the prophets ended when Christ came in the flesh. This is also why the curtain between the Holy of Holies in the Jerusalem temple was torn....Christ became our go-between. Because of Christ, we can go directly to the father. In the past, prophets and priests stood between humanity and God. No longer.
I know you WANT desperately for Paul to be a prophet, but the simple fact is that if he wanted this title, he'd have taken it, or it would have been given to him. It wasn't.
By denouncing your faith? By leaving it to the way side? By attacking religions and people of faith at every turn? Could have fooled me.
Gosh. If I didn't know better, I'd think you were attacking me. I mean, you did say:
You are an unbeliever who does not care and want only to corrupt that which is pure.
That sounds a little bit like an attack...
I've never attacked people personally (although this is about your 6th or 7th personal comment directed at my character). I've simply pointed out where they've gotten "off-message." I think that's a legitimate place of discussion.
And, I only do it when Christians use their beliefs as a basis for attacking other people.
Christs atonement was so ALL men and not just the Jewish people could attain heaven.
Why couldn't they attain it on their own merits?
Not at all, you just implied it. :doh
Really. Quote my post and back up this claim or stand down, soldier.
Ummm... It was my last post specifically about gay people and not religion and gays.
You can't resist my powers.
I have shown it does. You have basically offered lip service.
If this was truly significant to Christ, given his limited time on earth and the importance of every word he spoke, I'm quite sure he'd have brought it up. Why didn't he? You've taken verses out of context and tried to twist them into supporting your worldview, rather than being conformed to the word of God.
You implied it and are still trying to imply it with your "what have you done for gays lately post.
Please, feel free to use my words to show this...
Please don't be so dishonest, you brought it up.
You simply misinterpreted my comment. But, now would be a good time to stop doing this.
