My apologies...after Rome split and the empire divided. Byzantium was the eastern empire.

Kind of an interesting topic really. There were larger empires during Rome's hayday. But it was Rome that propagated Christianity to the west, where Byzantium was more eastern Orthodox.

Oh..any and all...I'm not on that mess where we can't say Jesus was Jewish and not Judean...Jewish communicates just fine. I was pointing out the difference in content the religion is founded on. Nothing more.

Modern day Judaism didn't start in earnest until around 140ad or so with a lot of Judaism coming from the Babylonian Talmud, which Jesus referred to as the traditions of men. The NT is in harmony with the Old Testament though it doesn't fit like a hand in a glove. I'm at work so 140 ad may be off by a few decades one way or another.

Thanks for confirming the whitewash I have been telling you has occurred. It never contradicts pflap68 because it's the same class with material missing...why would they remove material mike? Why would the greatest class on earth need to have hours of material removed? Could it be that the way internationl is still coverin wierwille's plagaristic tracks? Or maybe they remove outright lies and inconsistencies...thats what a lot of the editing has been about over the years. Clean up the works of a narcissisctic drunk who used the Bible for his own greedy base gain and lusts.

No they don't. Eternal truth: thou shalt not commit adultery....oh yeah wierwille changed that to spiritual adultery and ran through every young lady he could get on the motor coach. Yeah - eternal truths don't change - unethical people change the Bible to suit their lusts.

Complete lack of comprehension as to what is actually written. We are never told to DISTANCE ourselves from our old man nature. We are told to reckon it dead. Really big difference there mike.

I doubt you have ever read Romans with any clear comprehension as to what is actually being said versus what wierwille says on Romans in pflap...he says very little on Romans in PFLAP...however, I did follow along on his university of life tapes on Romans. I also followed along in Charles Welsh's book The Just and the Justifier and wierwille basically taught that book almost line for line in the university of life tapes....and you probably wonder why they pulled that series...lol

Mike - your rationalizations make no sense. Trinitarians use similar rationalizations, like the trinity is like water...it can be a vapor or in solid form...God is just like that and he took a body to save mankind from their sins. Im not anti-trinity either, just believe there is more to the God head than what TWI is willing to admit but I digress.. My point is none of these little pseudo pithy statements actually agree with scripture that lying and telling half truths is NOT God's will or way. You are willing to intentionally cover-up very egregious sins for the sake of a stolen class and a deceased creep that you idolize. That's not gonna work out well when you explain that to Jesus Christ someday.

But I thought mainstream churches were all run by seed boys, so you are admitting that the way international is a mainstream church. Nobody ever said they did -- moot point. So we are living in paradise restored, that is assuming administrations are real and we are in the grace one. Ok. Now were subtly threatened with losing eternal rewards...mess with the way international and Jesus gonna get you at the bema.

Well, only if you take the sideways to the uppermost left, YABBADABBA structure approach to prov your postulate that hasnt been known since the first century!

Oh...stupid @$$ name for a class where the students present some talent/skill they have...kinda like stepford show and tell...only totally different..mogashontadishu.

That's some mighty fine biblical research there sir! And I didn't have to fork over a bill either.woot!

Ironic you would mention those bands cause dancing Gumby boy learned how to dance from videos made during that time frame....lol...no Shonta....I was in residence with him. For his body soul spirit presentation he did cheesy dance moves for twenty minutes...we all died laughing and talked all kinds of smack for months...

Why yessir I did! Infact think I'll post it again...bless your little hearts...tremendous! https://youtu.be/1AFXR8nuOnc

Holy Shonta! I thought all they had was a renewed mind dancing guy with a really big stepford smile! They really are dynamic.

Thtb an awesome name for a death metal band.

YES!!!

It's what happens when a troll is trolled.

Same reason he compared himself to Jesus....

Jesus wept. I can quote scripture out of context too. You need to be more loving bruh. At this rate I'll never fill out a green card...

Your not being very loving.

I feel the same way...when I first realized it asked forgiveness immediately. I can say I was ignorant and in unbelief....still not a good feeling though. Hoping for the best too my friend.

Dude I finally figured out the wedge...have proof now too!!! Research superstar!!!! My Christmas gift to GSC.
