Re: The Trinity and The Argument of Progressive Revelation

Hi James, Thanks for the questions. :) Taking the quotes in order: "In describing to His disciples the office work of the Holy Spirit, Jesus sought to inspire them with the joy and hope that inspired His own heart. He rejoiced because of the abundant help He had provided for His church. The Hol...

Re: Intelectual Property Regarding Plants & Seeds

Thanks for your answers. I have a further question: Where do you see the line between what is Yahweh's gift and what is a human invention? Ultimately all things come from Yahweh, so I am wondering where you are drawing the distinction here. For example, a tree comes from Yahweh; we could not claim t...

Re: Intelectual Property Regarding Plants & Seeds

Hi, Thanks for posting this. I think it has the potential for some valuable discussion. I think it is important for us to approach these topics rationally and think them through carefully. Where do you see the difference between a breeder patenting a particular type of plant he has selectively bred,...

Re: Reply to David Clayton's "The Problem with Feast Keeping

Thank you for sharing this.

Re: The "Unchurched" fallacy.

Hello :) Thank you for your post. In truth, these quotes are not new to us, and we've given them a very thorough amount of thought before entering into our work. We actually have a web page available here that shows the entire context of those statements. You'll notice that all of them referring to ...

Re: The Trinity and The Argument of Progressive Revelation
