    Beats carrying The NT with Psalms and Proverbs in your back pocket, now all you have to do as you witness is point to your left leg and say "In the Book of Romans ---".

    See how nice it would be in the winter to be a member of the Latter Day Saints. Then you could use the Book of Mormon for an overcoat.

    Pages from the Pearl of Great Price. If you want to get fancy, you could glue on some of the feathers from angel Marconi's wings.

    I'm thinking about starting a new thread entitled "Let's Fight!" but I can't decide if it needs to go in the fellowship forum or the debate forum.

    Any suggestions?

    Nobody on this thread has addressed the original question. Aren't both Calvinism and free will supported by the Bible? I believe they both are and it's a waste of precious time to argue about them. Only God understands His motivations and plans. Many here think that that's not the case. They're wrong.

    I wouldn't say calvinism and free will are supported...maybe God's sovereignty and man's free will, or election and free will.

    I posted the original question on this thread and it had nothing to do with Calvinism.:laugh: Unless God predestinated me to notice that we WERE getting along around here. . .

    Rev 7:9 (KJV1611 Editiion):
    After this I beheld, and lo, a great multitude,
    which no man could nuber,
    of all nations, and kindreds, and people, & tongues,
    stood before the throne, & before the Lamb,
    clothed with white robes, and palmes in their hands:
    Rev 7:10 And cryed with a loude voice,
    saying, Saluation to our God,
    which sitteth vpon the Throne, and vnto the Lambe.

    Whilst 'no man' could number we sitting around the
    throne (missing the Tribulation, I might add, after
    the Pretribulation Raptue1/Resurrection1 of us Church
    Age folk) I'm sure many a woman could figure out that
    number :laugh:

    OK. Let's fight about this: Is it Biblical for preachers to wear slip-on shoes or must they weare lace-up shoes?

    Obviously, Preachers must preach bare-foot... AND I HAVE SCRIPTURE TO BACK IT UP!!!

    When God was calling Moses to speak for him, he said
    And he said, Draw not nigh hither: put off thy shoes from off thy feet, for the place whereon thou standest [is] holy ground.
    (Exodus 3:5)

    Then again Stephen (one of the first deacons) confirmed that moses was barefooted... (and we all know if anyone should know, a deacon should):
    Then said the Lord to him, Put off thy shoes from thy feet: for the place where thou standest is holy ground.
    (Acts 7:33)

    Then let's not forget what Paul said...
    And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!
    (Romans 10:15)

    Now, how would people know if preacher's feet were beautiful unless they preached bare-footed?


    Point proven!:wavey:

    But...
    What if the preacher (who shall remain nameless) has very ugly toes? Does that make any difference?
