What does “scripture” mean in NT writing? perhaps that's because I misremembered Simon when, in fact, Paul contrasts the teachings of James and he rebukes Peter for "supporting" them. |

What does “scripture” mean in NT writing? To what extent, then, are we to disregard (as Paul does) the teaching of Simon to the Corinthians? If Peter values the writings of apostles equally as "scripture" rather than just those of Paul then how are we to understand them as "God Breathed" compared those the writings of Simon to the Corinthians (not canonized)? |

Should non-believers be allowed in church? Back in confirmation class we used to sign a song that went like this: "The church is not a builder, a committee or a board. It's not a corporation for the business of the lord. We are the church, the body of our Lord..." I can't fathom how somebody would justify limiting access to a building for Christian worship to non-believers when ministry to the gentiles was so important. |

If God were going to send another Biblical flood, would He warn us? @DavidStratton you go ahead, I'm on my cell phone and it's hard to make clean answers. |

If God were going to send another Biblical flood, would He warn us? Genesis outlines that God promises to never again destroy the world by flood. |

Is confessing to a priest the only way to be forgiven? From a "general Christian" perspective the answer will change. From a Maronite (I'm guessing you're Lebanese?) the answer today is: a qualified no. Maronites affirm the papacy of Rome and so confession is an important rite but even Rome doesn't say it's the only way to be forgiven. |

What justification would make divorce worse than adultery? Even lusting after others without acting is adultery; considering infidelity is equal to infidelity. Therefore no dichotomy exists. The individual (like most, I would presume) is guilty of adultery, if the "sin" is the concern. |

Do all churches celebrate communion in the same order (bread-first, wine-second)? My anecdote, not an answer: Every church I have attended did bread then wine; even the churches with a "non-traditional" communion process. |

What does “scripture” mean in NT writing? What is your evidence when you state "it seems pretty clear to me from a word search that this almost exclusively refers to the Old Testament writings when used by New Testament authors?" I'm not refuting, I think it's a very compelling point I'd like to read more about. |

What does “scripture” mean in NT writing? Are we, then, to understand that 2T doesn't call the NT "God-Breathed?" |

How do those who reject both predestination and purgatory justify their beliefs? +1 Martin Luther's "take" was that we have free choice except for reception of grace. |

If the Ten Commandments say “thou shalt not kill” how can a Christian fight in a war? @GregMcNulty nonetheless, you assert that is "is never OK to kill an enemy" while God has commanded such. I assert that God is not fickle, but consistent. Jesus comes not to abolish the law but to fulfill the law. Therefore the two orders (given your interpretation) appear irreconcilable. If we follow Aquinas's lead here: you misunderstand scripture, you misunderstand empirical evidence, or both. |
