It’s in the verse you quoted. 1 Peter 3:19-20 (KJV) 19 By which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison; 20 Which sometime were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, eight souls were saved by...

Fantastic! Thanks. Was that a site-wide change, or was it specific to me?

Is there a multi-quote option, either for whole posts or for parts of posts? I’m on another zen-foro forum that has that, and it’s useful.

Hi Lon. Did you lose your other account? Derf

If that’s the case, then Jesus only seems to have preached to those that died in the flood. What do you think He said to them? And What about all those Old Testament saints? Didn’t Jesus have anything to say to them? And you think they were dead???? The three apostles didn’t think that. They...

I never went back to this to respond. Sorry about that. Did Jesus preach to the dead? That’s the most popular narrative these days. I’m just trying to determine if it’s an accurate narrative. Or is it more in keeping with other scripture that the dead can’t hear anything: Ecclesiastes 9:5...

Hi Sherman . I feel like the thread, https://theologyonline.com/forum/politics-religion-and-the-rest/religion/exclusively-christian-theology/2732006-death-and-how-to-comfort-the-family, had a lot of potential. The two main views were indeed evoking bickering, but both were bringing out relevant...

A good friend's wife passed away last year. The phrase I heard most during the funeral as the attendees, including her surviving spouse, was some form of "She's in a better place now." She was a believer, so I don't think the phrase was forced, but I've been wondering how valid that phrase is...

Ok, I fixed it so it doesn't say "you are your surroundings". Happy? :mmph:

Not true. Our sense of sight tells us that things are going past us--the sun and moon and stars. You've chosen to interpret that as the sun, moon, and stars moving past your sight, but that's a choice you made--a frame of reference. Just like if you were on a moving sidewalk, there's little to...

Sorry. Didn't notice the link had changed. Corrected now.

One more thing on this--I haven't looked into all the possible models of a flat earth. The one that is most prevalent in the FE videos, where the sun and moon circle around a wobbling (for seasonal variations) center point at a fixed distance above the earth's flat surface, does NOT allow the...

I'm not saying it can't be faked. But if it's assumed that it's faked just because it shows the wrong view, then there's no objectivity. I brought this up to Dave--he seemed unwilling to concede that the flat earth videos were possibly faked, or deliberately skewed to promote that view point...

And now one can view the curve of the earth through the front windshield of a Tesla Roadster. https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/960992715579125760?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.theguardian.com%2Fscienc e%2Flive%2F2018%2Ffeb%2F06%2Fspacex-falcon-heavy-launch-elon-musk-live-updates

[Phl 1:15-18 KJV] 15 Some indeed preach Christ even of envy and strife; and some also of good will: 16 The one preach Christ of contention, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my bonds: 17 But the other of love, knowing that I am set for the defence of the gospel. 18 What then...

That's Dave? My favorite was this, at 0:55: "The [toilet water] doesn't fly out of the toilet because water seeks its level."

If the bible gives wisdom for all occasions, then it should be able to handle this: Let's say, for argument's sake, that Global Climate change is a fact, and that it is caused by humans. What then should we as Christians do about it? I'll suggest up front that while some of the secular...

I'm starting this thread to keep from clogging up another one (What is the Gospel? started by Sonnet) with rabbit trails. These are two responses I had to a post or two in the other thread, and I wanted to answer them without hijacking Sonnet's. For now, I'm just starting the thread as a...
