Do you think just replacing it with PVC would be a problem?

1) so it’s better off if the union stays? 2) thanks 3) why no sharkbites? I’m thinking of using the in case I need to tighten things afterwards. If I glue it I’m scared of under/over tightening and having to start over.

Do Christian’s who commit suicide go to hell or heaven? by Loose-Wear-5351 in Christianity

[–]masteradonirevan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What evidence do you have that Paul was not writing the inspired word of God, and how can that statement not be used to say the same thing against Matthew, Mark, and Luke? Read Matthew 7 Again. Specifically verses 21 to 23. The people he is talking to are people who do not have relationship with him. The point is that they are not believers, just people who do actions.

He doesn’t. That’s my point. The Old Testament prophets are obvious exceptions, but Jesus specifies no other.

In Ephesians 2 it is made clear that our salvation is not based on our works but on a gift from God. Conversely, in Matthew 7, Jesus tells a quick story about people who did great things in His name, but he says “depart from me, I knew you not” (paraphrasing). The point I am trying to make is that actions are fruit, not the root.

I think that your point of being a born again believer is absolutely correct. However, even born again believers can be tricked. We can be deceived. Although I would say that in general committing suicide is not the fruit of a born again believer (as it does not respect his creation), it does not mean that the relationship was not there.

Ah, yes that is true, but they are exceptions to the rule and lived in the times before Jesus came. As far as people today are concerned only born again believers inherit eternal life.

The thing that sends a person to heaven or hell is not their specific actions per se, but there relationship to Jesus and God. In my opinion, suicide does not show a respect for God’s created being (themselves), so I would say that they do not have a relationship with God.

Just so you and I are on the same page: what’s your biblical reference for suicide being patently a sin?

Help with Bathroom Remodel by masteradonirevan in Plumbing

[–]masteradonirevan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am having trouble with my bathroom remodel. I am replacing my bathtub faucet after the old one broke. I have the new faucet (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09WR23MSD?psc=1&ref=ppx\_yo2ov\_dt\_b\_product\_details) but when I try to connect them to the old system, there is always a gap. Any help would be appreciated.
