because What Jesus did we could do if we Walk Like that and talk like that and follow in his footsteps.. he will give us the keys to the kingdom Of God.. Now he has the keys to creation besides .. we probably can't have those.. but he will work for us and the Father will work for us .
This Myles Munroe, right?

Quote:
His career was not without controversy: in March this year he was criticised by his country’s Foreign Minister, Fred Mitchell, for comments about the LGBT community in the Bahamas. Munroe had said that Mitchell’s support of LGBT people in the Bahamas didn’t “represent the majority of the convictions of the Bahamian people.” Mitchell replied, “Once again Dr Myles Munroe has returned to a theme he does not understand and obviously which he has no knowledge.” Mitchell said Munroe’s “absolute stupidity and wilful deceit is parading around in the pulpit disguised as theology.”

In September Munroe again stirred controversy at home, following a gay pride event. In a statement entitled “Homosexuality – Phobia or Principle”, people, he said, have “hijacked” and “raped” the civil rights movement with their fight for LGBT rights.

Backed up by quotations from the Bible, he also proffered alarming views on womanhood. “The male was created by God to create what he wants,” he said. “The woman you are looking for, brother, does not exist. She is in your head. Your job is to take the raw material you married and cultivate her into the woman in your head. So if you have been married for 20 years and you still don’t like the product you get, that is your fault.”

Using fundamentalist "thinking" (or lack thereof), perhaps God killed him in an unexplained airplane crash in 2014 to rid the world of still another anti-people person!

I showed you the numbers and your responded with the old "no true Scotchman" fallacy.

Feel free to believe whatever you want.

And I showed you the "facts" behind your numbers--from a historian. The interesting thing about statistics like yours is they are sort of like a bikini, what they reveal is very interesting, but what they hide is vital.

You could try reading Lynne Cheney's (the wife of Dick Cheney) book, James Madison, a Life Revisited. It has a wonderful section on the battles taking place over religion among the founders. I didn't know Lynne was the VP's wife until halfway through the book and might not have read it thinking she would echo a lot of his political drama.

But she did not. There was a tremendous argument over the place of religion and government in the writing of the Constitution. Madison was a much better writer than Jefferson and had already suffered some fundamentalist religious viewpoints concerning his epilepsy which he hid from others because it was considered "demon possession" by prominent church leaders in that day, so little Jimmy (he was 5'4") wrote much of what became our Constitution.
Quote:
Madison wrote that he had "a constitutional tendency to sudden attacks somewhat resembling epilepsy which suspended all intellectual function.... They continued throughout my life with prolonged intensity"

Cheney is a fair and balanced writer and her book was one of the best biographies I've ever read. I would suggest it to you so that your preconceived notions about the founders might be washed away with knowledge, but knowledge has rarely ever been able to overturn prejudice.

Madison and Jefferson were among the very few sharing those views, but feel free to pretend all founders did. I am sure even they did not share your anti-Christian resentment.

May be not anti christian, but 99% were opposed to any form of government based on RELIGION.

it only proves a creator liked chicken genes.. and he really likes all kind of bird/ wing and feather genes it seems as he will use them in the next age also on humans and angels and chickens and probably even some of the "beasts of the field".. maybe He will even build his own Jurassic park.. of course it won't be named that. .
I am a creationist---God did it all.

The originals may have been lost, but the copies are still available and God has assured us that they are reliable.

boy was that full of love r what.. so fluffy of you..

Yep and he was all over it !
when doing a study in the flood one day with my kids for a school project.. we figured out just how many of Noah's fathers had died just with in even 100 down to 10 or less years of the flood. Even Methuselah even 1 year before the Flood.. God takes some home because of what is about to happen in this world.. maybe God took them out of this world so that they didn't have to go where and through what the rest of mankind would go through and especially what was going to happen in the Bahamas.

I am betting God knows things man doesn't know YET

you better start praying for the Bahamas Now sir.
MY guess is it is about to get really ugly there.
Just know that His family and friends are all safe
and all together with each other.
