Deeper Waters Forum Guidelines
Notice The ministries featured in this section of TheologyWeb are guests of this site and in some cases not bargaining for the rough and tumble world of debate forums, though sometimes they are. Additionally, this area is frequented and highlighted for guests who also very often are not acclimated to debate fora. As such, the rules of conduct here will be more strict than in the general forum. This will be something within the discretion of the Moderators and the Ministry Representative, but we simply ask that you conduct yourselves in a manner considerate of the fact that these ministries are our invited guests. You can always feel free to start a related thread in general forum without such extra restrictions. Thank you.
Deeper Waters is founded on the belief that the Christian community has long been in the shallow end of Christianity while there are treasures of the deep waiting to be discovered. Too many in the shallow end are not prepared when they go out beyond those waters and are quickly devoured by sharks. We wish to aid Christians to equip them to navigate the deeper waters of the ocean of truth and come up with treasure in the end.
We also wish to give special aid to those often neglected, that is, the disabled community. This is especially so since our founders are both on the autism spectrum and have a special desire to reach those on that spectrum. While they are a special emphasis, we seek to help others with any disability realize that God can use them and that they are as the Psalmist says, fearfully and wonderfully made.

His reply sets dissimilar terms against each other as if they were each others' antonym. Supernatural' s opposite is not historical, it is natural. Historical's opposite is not supernatural, it is ahistorical.That's what

The passage of Deuteronomy 20:16-17 is an example of war rhetoric There are many Near Eastern text that use such language https://www.allaboutarchaeology.org/...-stele-faq.htm.
Second the goal was to drive them out of the land and various text foretell that (Exodus 34:11; 33:2). So again your claim on this text fails.

Here's a really dumb, simplified analogy. The human brain has finite memory and processing capability. As a result, Jesus would need to leave most of His knowledge in the "cloud" so to speak. He would still be omniscient, but wouldn't have all the data in His brain. And He would only "download" needed information. Spoilers about the future do not count as needed data.If it weren't for the Resurrection of Jesus, we'd all be in DEEP TROUBLE!

Cast not your pearls before swine."I am not angered that the Moral Majority boys campaign against abortion. I am angry when the same men who say, "Save OUR children" bellow "Build more and bigger bombers." That's right! Blast the children in other nations into eternity, or limbless misery as they lay crippled from "OUR" bombers! This does not jell." - Leonard Ravenhill
