By the way, I assume this is the verse you were referring to:
Luke 2:21 At that time Jesus, full of joy through the Holy Spirit, said, "I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children. Yes, Father, for this was your good pleasure.
"When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me. Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known."
1 Corinthians 13:11-12
I cannot claim that this website is accurate, because I just googled and quickly skimmed some of it. www.100prophecies.org
I have read a good book that I cannot remember the title of, it was quite convincing to me anyway. I will try to find out the title of it when I have a chance.
Well, my personal favorites were fulfilled by Jesus although there are many to choose from that scholars consider fulfilled (some of which I can not claim to fully understand)
--a clip from a website I quickly googled---- Bible passage: Isaiah 53:5 Written: perhaps between 701-681 BC Fulfilled: About 32 AD
In Isaiah 53:5, prophet described a servant as being punished for the sins of others, and that others would be healed by the wounds of this person. As explained in the Gospel - the four New Testament books of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John - Jesus was crucified for our sins, even though He was sinless. Christians believe that this ultimate sacrifice redeemed us all from sin in the same way that lambs were once sacrificed as a symbolic way of cleansing people from sin. And so, all of us can be accepted into the Kingdom of God, as though we were sinless, if we accept Jesus as our Savior. Christians believe that we are healed through the wounds that Jesus suffered.
Isaiah 53:5 But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon him, and by his wounds we are healed.
You're right, God had Noah and his sons build a boat for about a hundred years, and was able to make it rain for 40 days and nights- enough to cover the whole earth... but He "forgot" to check if he should invite a couple extra righteous people. How silly of Him.
You mean evolutionist reality and scientific facts like the second law of thermodynamics?
Every system, left to its own devices, always tends to move from order to disorder, its energy tending to be transformed into lower levels of availability (for work), ultimately becoming totally random and unavailable for work....or... The entropy of a closed system cannot decrease.
I meant to say we still have the manuscripts that the english bibles were translated from. it can be retranslated at any time if you find them to be inaccurate.
We still HAVE the bible written in original manuscripts. Any one can look at them for their accuracies any time they want. Its not like they are throwing away the original and playing the "telephone game" with the chinese bibles. If you find them false, publish your works. People will listen.
No one in their right might will argue that mankind is entirely good. The bible even addresses the evil and selfishness of man. In fact, thats why God sent His Son to earth. So that someone could pay the penalty for those corrupt people.
No, the assumption he was describing was what the dead sea scrolls proved false (the assumption the the bible was modified to serve the purposes of wicked men and their supposed messiah).
The reason it is considered true is not because someone wrote it, but by the many prophecies (many of which have ALREADY been fulfilled) and historical accuracies contained within. None of the prophecies have been proven false.
Ok, I'll repeat myself too: "If there's no alternative, than competition does not come into play."
They don't give a crap if.001% of their customers cancel because they don't want to pay for something they don't want. The only way the other 99.999% will leave is if there is a better alternative. People are addicted to TV worse than crack, and if you're the only dealer in town there is nothing to motivate you to improve.
"If companies sell shit you don't want -- don't buy it. "
That would be good advice if there was a company selling only the stuff you DO want. If there's no alternative, than competition does not come into play.
This seems like the same argument that people use for public taxes being used to pay for arts and museums. It would die if you don't have everyone pay for it. and then what would the children look at? Oh the humanity!!!
I say, So What? If it isn't strong enough to pay for itself perhaps it SHOULD be buried. Or perhaps they should find a way to run those channels more cheaply.
I think its a pity for them too. Theres no quicker way to drain a battery than to use one of those little testers. Those little things would have you buying more new batteries in no time. Duracell should know that too.

No compendo, can you explain what you're talking about?
You mean evolutionist reality and scientific facts like the second law of thermodynamics?
...or...
Every system, left to its own devices, always tends to move from order to disorder, its energy tending to be transformed into lower levels of availability (for work), ultimately becoming totally random and unavailable for work.
The entropy of a closed system cannot decrease.
Now who's not listening to scientific facts?

Though hearing, they don't understand.
I have 1.25 GB of RAM and my hard drive was crunching all the time.
I figured out that it will stop if you turn off indexing.
Its supposed to help it search faster or something like that.
By that same logic, I should be able to go around killing people... just because God created us with the ability to do so.
Yes, because we all know a storyteller like Gord is an authority on such topics.

Or you could just continue to use your analog cable. Its not broadcast over the airwaves.
Yes, but the difficulty is trying to figure out where to stick the extra 4 headphones.
wait... there's something you can't do on linux?
Inconceivable!!!

My HP printer deterred counterfeiting in a very low tech method.
It just printed a BLACK line down the middle of EVERY page.
"Physics BS"
I remember that class.
I guess that joke wasn't very funny for you then. Was it?
I am truly NOT ashamed to admit that I didn't know how to spell "Outkast" correctly.
This just in:
Justin Timberlink is going to do a follow-up free concert with Outcast on CBS.
