What clicked and made you have a different mindset? How long did it take to start changing and how long was the transformation? Did it last or is it an ongoing back and forth between your old self? I want to know your transformation and success.

Any kind of change, big or small. Anything from weight loss, world view, personality shift, major life change, single change like stopped smoking or drinking soda to starting exercising or going back to school. I want to hear how people’s life were a bit or a lot better through reading and your progress.

TIA 🙏

    See Luke 22:19-20, Mark 14:22-24, John 6:35, John 6:51-58, John 15:5, John 19:29-32, Matthew 22:34-40, and Matthew 12, a chapter literally called “Jesus works on the Sabbath”.

    All of them argue over what is work not about the rule itself.

    The events in the gospels came before Paul because Paul’s conversion was after the last supper. To say his events came before the events in the gospels is very odd in an argument. You can’t say “well the gospels were written after”, that’s like saying Canaanites came after the Hebrews because the Hebrews were written about before the Canaanites were written about.

    Incorrect. The letters predate the Gospels by decades. Which we know because they reference later events and try to patch up holes that didnt exist in Paul’s time. Especially John which was written ~100 yesrs aftet the events and shows a fully developed theology.

    Things exist independently from writing about them.

    Give me one. Show me any secular reference to Jesus that predates Paul.

    Not really sure why you included the trinity as a thing anyways if it’s not impactful as to whether it’s true or not, it would be like saying Paul invented robes. Yeah, and? All three parts of the trinity exist, but seeing it “as a trinity” is not necessary.

    Because the Trinity doesn’t exist. He started the fiction and it carried on.

    Paul said at one time we should wear coverings on our head, but that is extremely setting-exclusive, if depictions are anything to go by.

    Now we are cherry picking.

    The last verse I gave about children in my previous comment literally and explicitly denounces using any method such as the rod. If that doesn’t support what I’m saying, then you’ve escalated this argument into a matter of understanding as well now, and I cannot explain something to someone who figuratively doesn’t speak my language.

    quote it, NIV
