You might want to consider ignoring some folks. Trolls lose their power if they go unfed. They have no power over you that you do not give them. I slowly learned that lesson....

I don’t know him much. Some of what he posts seems sensible. I try not to get too far in the weeds. My faith is not fragile and I don’t expect to “convert” anyone. My only job is to share the Word. What another does with it is between him and God.

Same question for you DBT.
I understand that you are not a man of faith, but are you a man of your word? Rather than casting aspersions onto the character of your perceived opponents, try to focus on the issues being raised. Do you still beat your wife?

Too bad we can not have a decent conversation without interference from the non-believers that are only here to troll and disrupt.
Maybe I should start a new thread, because I would like to learn more, from you good people, without their constant bloviating.
KB If the serious Jesus disciples put the trolls on "ignore" we could skip a lot of posts. Remember. Jesus instructed us "don't cast your pearls before Swine" and "don't give what is holy to dogs". How do we know this? One of His followers wrote it down and it's now in the Bible.

Jesus and His disciples in fact did use the Old Testament. We know from history the disciples writings were copied and shared. Don't you think They were shared in the gathering of holy ones? Yes, Jesus and His Apostles did leverage the Old Testament when they were trying to sway their Jewish brothers and sisters regarding the good news of the kingdom of God that Jesus was bringin’. But when they were preaching to Gentiles, they clearly were not throwin’ Old Testament verses at em’. Two thousand years ago, in Judea no less, the logistics of writings and copies…and the widespread dissemination of them…wasn’t even close to being as simple as it is nowadays. Remember the early church founders had a meeting and issued at least one proclamation. Don't you think other proclamations followed? Some of those proclamations became the New Testament. Yes, they (Peter and James in particular) proclaimed that Gentile Christians are not obligated to become Jews and abide by the Old Testament. And Peter made it clear that even Jewish Christians received salvation the same way that Gentile Christians do ~ by the grace of Jesus alone, and ‘not’ by abiding by the Mosaic Law. I’m not anti-Bible at all. I’m simply asserting that the Bible is ‘not’ the foundation of Christianity, and it never has been. I absolutely believe that the historical New Testament manuscripts are accurate and reliable accounts of actual events that were documented by eyewitnesses, and by those (like Luke) who thoroughly investigated and interviewed eyewitnesses. There is no one alive on earth who met Jesus or His original apostles. For hundreds of years the only way to know about Jesus was from some one with a Bible or who used Bible information. OK. Likewise, we know about science and math and history from science and math and history books. But the science and math and history don’t exist because of those books, those books exist because of the science and math and history. Science and math and history would still exist…and still be true…even if none of those books existed. It is the same with Christianity and the Bible.
Every day on this side of the ground is a win.

Casting aspersions, I have done no such thing, I am simply asking you if you are a man or your word?
Seems like you are struggling with the most basic of questions.

Puts holy chit to a whole new meaning... hope there isn't an eternal TP shortage.
Kent God is Infinite. He says stomachs will be done away. Don't forget. Jesus ate after the resurrection. Yet the body is not for immorality... I mean if you are going to site the verse finish it off. Kent How does that add to the idea Jesus ate after the resurrection? That doesn't relate to we being reunited in our existing body... are you claiming 3 days after we die we will sit down and eat again with our family to prove our resurrection? Kent You are very argumentative.

Seems like you are struggling with the most basic of questions. So you don't understand inference? For instance: Are you stll beating your wife? I ask this in order to determine your character. Why won't you answer my question?

KillerBee,
I noticed on page 33 on my phone every post is on "ignore". They didn't bother me or interupe my pleasure brought up by the brothers.
May I encourage you in this area.

Science and math and history would still exist…and still be true…even if none of those books existed. It is the same with Christianity and the Bible. No-one disputes Christianity and the Bible existing. Difference between those and science and maths etc is that science and maths are demonstrable. The stories in the Bible and Christianity are either not supported by evidence, or often evidence to the contrary.
Whatever you said...everyone knows you are a lying jerk. That's a bold assertion. Point out where you think I lied. Well?

…what makes Christianity truly unique in a very important way and provides its fundamental basis is the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Without it Christianity does not exist, and our faith is useless. Yep. Absolutely. Christianity is not based on something that was written. Christianity is based on something that happened. .. Yet faith is not evidence of a tall story that allegedly happened..Historians like Bart Ehrman that you quote do not substantiate miracle/supernatural claims from superstition based societies of classic antiquity. Bart Ehrman is very clear on that matter. and Apologetic drivel doesn't cut the mustard.

May I encourage you in this area. Thanks fir your input, I like it. I Don't have anyone on ignore, not afraid of anyone's point of view. Don't you find it fascinating that mauserand9mm can't even answer a basic question and we are to believe that he has all the answers lol, the gentleman must have serious issues. Either that or he lives his life in fear, or a combination of both.
