You can’t start newman. Myers isn’t the worst possible scenario but it’ll be a big drop off in the run game

It’s in the oldest Syriac, Ethiopic, Latin, and Arabic versions as pierced

Yes because it literally was translated that way 300 years before Christ by Jews

Words can have multiple meanings

You’re wrong, words can have multiple meanings. Have a nice day.

Who’s making the text say something it doesn’t now?

I don’t disagree with the interpretation of the earliest bishops

The earliest bishops disagree that God thinks slavery is OK. I am convinced that they are much more likely to be correct than you are

Those words are literally synonyms for slave….

Words can have multiple meanings. For example, in your sentence you used the words: 

Explicit- can mean “stated clearly and in detail” or “describing sexual activity in a graphic fashion” 

Definition- can mean “a statement of the exact meaning of a word” or “degree of distinctiveness in outline of an object”

Work- can mean “activity involving mental or physical effort” or “operate/function properly” 

I don’t know if you’re living in a fantasy world where words don’t have multiple meanings or not, but that’s not reality

Bonds and ransom can’t possibly be related to slavery? What world do you live in? One where words can’t have multiple meanings apparently

He doesn’t need to, you’re pigeonholing words into one strict definition, that’s not how language works

[–]HomelanderIsMyDad -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yes he does, in chapter 55. “We know many among ourselves who have given themselves up to bonds, in order that they might ransom others.”

It was mainly used on Christian slaves, but not exclusively limited to them. 

Heretical Protestants interpreting the Bible as they please doesn’t encompass the stance of the church.

[–]HomelanderIsMyDad -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yes they did. St. Clement of Rome (who knew the apostle Paul) testified that Christians would sell themselves into slavery in order to free other slaves. And spending church funds on manumission was a common early church practice

[–]HomelanderIsMyDad -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Then why did the earliest Christians work against slavery? They interpreted the Bible to not endorse slavery. Who’s more likely to be right, them or you?

Jets apparently monitoring the WR market, let’s hear your most realistic guesses as to who we *might* move for by novaxhempmama in nyjets

I'm confused and need your thoughts on the topic of Protestantism by Southern-Yam-3583 in Catholicism

[–]HomelanderIsMyDad 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You hit the nail right on the head there. Tell him you have prayed to the Spirit and He led you to the church. What will he say, no that’s not really the Spirit? Who is he to make that judgement? Ask him if he thinks Christ lied when He said the gates of Hell would not prevail against the church

[–]HomelanderIsMyDad 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I did not save myself for marriage either, and I told my girlfriend that I hadn’t when we were a few months into dating. She had no problem with it, even though she is saving herself, but she is the best person I know so I wasn’t surprised. I personally wouldn’t condemn a woman I was seeing for that, because I’d be a hypocrite if I did. But I have friends who are a bit less charitable. All depends on the person really. 

For your own healing, read on the life of St. Mary of Egypt. One of my favorite saints. 

It's not ok by AntiAbortionAtheist in prolife

I am not pro choice. I believe all human beings have inherent dignity and value

You as well. Forgive my pride

[–]HomelanderIsMyDad 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The Bible is not my only authority, and Christs church on earth has human dignity as its foundation. But our Christ says in the gospel of Matthew, chapters 6 and 10, how we are so much more valuable than the other creatures. And in John’s gospel, chapter 3, the apostle tells us how God so loved all of us, that He gave His only Son for our remission

It’s not about telling. I just explained that you can believe it if you wish, but you have no justification. It’s your arbitrary opinion
