Why would you want to mar the image of God?

Yes, but you have also started many threads like this one, so it seems like you want to regurgitate it.

What does "fountains of the great deep mean, if not literal fountains and a literal deep? Because I think we would both agree that the water spewing out of the earth was fountains in the literal sense of the word, right? And deep refers to either the above ground seas (my view) or the...

Would you like to give us a synopsis of Paul's gospel so we can compare?

Why was a figure of speech used for the windows of heaven, but not for the fountains of the great deep? Doesn't it seem like the two would be treated the same, or if as you say, at least have connecting text to show that the literal one caused the figurative one?

So, what's your point? It's harder to decipher your sentence structure than the straight word for word translations you quoted.

Paul's gospel was preached in the Garden of Eden. Genesis 3:15 KJV — And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.

Why? Why would one want to symbolize wine? Wouldn't it be because wine reminds us of something else? Otherwise, we are worshiping wine. Do we worship Jesus' blood? Or do we worship the one Who gave His blood? Do we worship the body? Doesn't that mean we worship the church at least as much as the...

You have to put "Jesus" in quotation marks, because you know He existed before, without the name.

Maybe the answer to the confusion is that it is impossible to draw such a distinct line as you are drawing. And I'm not opposed to your premise, that the name of Jesus is intended to refer to the person who is both God and man. I just don't see where it is necessary. If Jesus is the name applied...

Are we still on the Roman Catholicism transubstantiation question? Oh, right, this is a different thread. 😉

Else his books would be called "Hamnals".

Is science meant to be taken literally or not? After all if Anthony Fauci IS science...

Ask for an extra pack of socks for Christmas. Christians already defy styles to some degree, if merely for modesty's sake. And with all the weird styles, who can even tell what 3.5 years of style change would be. Of course, that means you have to rotate your clothes stock like you would have to...

No, it doesn't. Something was going to change, but how it changed was TBD before Paul, at least from the apostles' vantage point. And that old covenant wasn't a perfect one. That's why a new one was needed. In the New Covenant, God had to show them, through Paul and through Peter, that...

Again, that suggests that He is continuing to build, not a future build. I'm surely not saying Jesus had nothing to do with the people of Israel in the Old Testament. Indeed. And the people were all baptized and ate together of spiritual food and drank together of spiritual drink. 1...

My sister saw this in Seattle:

Surely the oxymoronic Roman Catholicism didn't start until there was widespread disagreement. The popes appear to have heightened that disagreement over the years.

I don't think you're as MAD as you are wondering, with that statement. Maybe I'm wrong, but most MADs here wouldn't put it that way, else I'm MAD, too.
