Christian Biblical Research Ministries

[CoreIssue]

I received an email challenging me to read this site (http://www.christianbiblicalresearchministries.com/about_us.html). I have not done so yet and decided to put it on as multiple threads for general comment and discussion on several issue. Other issues can be added by other members or later, after these, if warranted or wanted.

So if you wish, read and comment.

I am the individual who instigated this discussion and debate, but I would like to make one thing clear. If you would like for me to respond with discussion and debate, then I would ask that you clearly define a single subject first and then debate until that discussion is over and then continue on to something else.

I have no desire to have three-twelve different discussions going on in the same thread at the same time. Choose your subject and then start an official debate thread thats heavily moderated. An open-ended comment, question and query is going to cause problems. Ive been through it before and I dont think that you or anyone else should be subjected to such a large mess.

I do not intend to be insulting, but that is whats going to happen. I wouldnt mind going to an official debate section, if you have one, but open-ended like this, where anything and everything can be picked apart, at the same time, just takes too much effort to try to resolve to anyones mutual satisfaction.

No problem. I will split the issues into threads. But I cannot do so right now. But will shortly.

[CoreIssue]

Moved, split and organized into a new forum to keep it all together.

Oh, wow. The arrogance of that site. Nothing but self promotion, from what I see....oh, and throw in a dash of Gnosticism. Well, maybe more than a dash. This doctrine you're pushing is nothing new, it's been around since the early church.

Tell ya what, Caleb, or I should say, Jeremy, I'll let the Holy Spirit tell me what the Bible really says.

Over and out.

[Chrystalwuzhere]

P.S. I received this challenge from him in e-mail too. I just didn't check my e-mail until today.

[Calebnostro]

Yes, please, do indeed let the Holy Spirit tell you what the Bible says, although the scriptures stated to prove all things, study to show yourself approved unto God and to search the scriptures to see if those things are so according to 1 Thessalonians 5:12, Acts 17:11, 2 Timothy 2:15.

Perhaps "evidence" doesnt enter into your equation as well, even though faith is the substance of things hoped for, the "evidence" of things not seen as stated in Hebrews 11:1?

Would you take the challenge to prove from the scriptures, from Biblical context and from the Hebrew and the Greek how I am wrong? I would like for you to do so. I dont like believing lies. Can you say the same?

[Chrystalwuzhere]

So, you're not denying the part where I said that you are a gnostic?

[Calebnostro]

I dont see what and where I am gnostic. You didnt even specificy how I was. You just said it as a fact.
