« on: January 27, 2015, 07:58:47 am »"Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them." -Matthew 5:17Oh, indeed, it's just what I thought you were talking about.
He doesn't has the main objective of invalidating the old law, but fulfilling it.
The part he is accomplishing are the prophecies about the messiah, about he being a successor the throne of Judah and how he lives and how he dies and how whatever else that was in the old testament, that is what they mean when they talk about the old law. Does that explains my point better?

I'm referring to romans 10:4, mind you to state where it's said that he isn't?

« on: January 26, 2015, 11:41:34 am »Do note the bible doesn't really say thatI as just about to mention it, according to the bible Satan is a regular angel. Probably one of the higher ranks tough... it doesn't really tells which.
The only detailed creation is the archangel which is mentioned to be the most powerful angel ( name) and Jesus wich was the first thing made.
What is that thing about Jesus being the "end of the Law"? I'm fairly certain it says the exact opposite, and that the basis for disregarding much of the ancient testaments comes from a passage in the Acts, where a group of Church elders state that gentiles converted to Christianity only have to respect a few laws.The old law as reposed after christ, but even then, it's obsolete, since most of it was a set of rules for the nation of Israel. You can take the whole giving the tenth part of your gains as a example. Any church that enforces this is apostate.

« on: January 26, 2015, 07:48:59 am »Yes, but they still apply to Christians. (and everyone else, but that's another matter)That's one of the ten commandments, and one of the better-known verses in the Bible. Most Christians would (I hope) immediately recognise it. They don't really need to include chapter and verse.That's Him speaking specifically to the Israelites (or whatever they were, I don't know bible-lore very well.)
That's not necessarily true. You can make a strong Biblical case for it not even applying to Christians.
I would like to point out that the whole "applies to christians too" is true, but not for the reason you may think.
Christianity is heavily dependent on god's personality, and is almost devoid of rules. Christians are not supposed to follow the old commandments because it's stated that Christ is the end of law, but if god has made such commandment before it means that he despises the worshiping of other god's.
It's also stated Jahwe (Or Jehova or Yahweh or however you call the bible's god) is a Jealous god, since it's part of his personality and christians want to make god happy then worshiping other gods is wrong, because Jahwe don't like it.

If world creation takes over 30 minutes you're doing it wrong or your computer is really low-end, make smaller worlds and shorter histories.
The bogeyman.
It's terrifying.
It was inevitable.
I think world creation will only get more and more complex and getting longer to finish.
I throw my popcap to 500 in earlier versions, but now I go with 300 strict.
I always play but sometimes I get a break from the forums, you could say I withdraw from society, but my SDT are kind of "meh".
My longest hiatus was during a month when I got my first job, I couldn't bring myself to do anything.

Dwarves raised by goblins are, indeed, part of the goblin civilization, they do not cause loyalty cascades.
You are having another problem. I sure he hasn't gone insane? Are they attacking with full force or just punching?

I also believe that, and young earth creationism is pretty dumb.
The bible also states the the earth as being a circle held suspended over nothing, so I think science is pretty much on with religion in that.
If your religion makes sense, science will probably agree with it.

« on: January 19, 2015, 07:39:00 pm »Making a sacrifice does not normally involve consumption of the sacrificing person - the consumption itself must be a metaphor for something if what he said wasn't meant literally.
I think you got our(mine?) point wrong, the eating don't makes part of it, the gifting thing does. He gave his blood and flesh to them.
If the eating part was true then the bible would be contradicting itself, eating blood is considered all trough the bible as a unthinkable act. God himself states that the life of a creature is it's blood. And back in the time it was an exigence to the blood be left to drip on the ground.
