    Who first used the term “unpardonable sin”

    Hello brothers and sisters. My question is not on what the unpardonable sin is, at all. My question is, who first coined the term(s), or who first used the term(s), “unforgivable sin” and “unpardonable sin”? These terms are nowhere in the Bible. I know the scriptures they represent, but who...

    Romans 9 Question

    Blessings Brothers and Sisters, Does anyone have articles or links they can send me on the early Church’s’ interpretation of Romans 9? What I have found thus far is the early Church did not look at Romans 9 in a double predestination sense. I have not found many articles though, very few...

    Looking for documents from the Methodist Protestant Church

    I'm doing some research on the denominations that preceded the United Methodist Church.

    Any patristic sources on 1 Timothy 2:11-12 that address whether the context is the church?

    1 Timothy 2:11-12 has been variously understood. One view I recently heard is that it teaches women to be silent not only in church, as is the case in 1 Corinthians 14:34-35, but also in secular matters. After making several contextual arguments for women not to teach with authority, this...

    The 7000 years of human history - with proof

    Anyone can verify this for themselves. 1. Assuming that God's word is true when it states in multiple places that 1000 literal years is equivalent to a Day according to God, then this provides some tangible data points. 2. Two additional data points provide some boundaries. The 1000 year...

    The truth is, God was invited to create - who invited you to evolve?

    Hi there, So yes, simple fact: What can we learn from this? Can we not make a simple parallel with Evolution? Who invited us to evolve? If we are invited, we can understand the way in which we are invited, can we not? Also what is expected? Also how long it takes? If I am being invited to...
