Another Flood

I was intrigued by the idea that God would destroy his people again. Everyone knows the story of Noah. 8 souls were saved while the rest of the world destroyed. Most people for get that Noah was the first Man to eat meat. Noah was also given a sign of the covenant that God would never flood the earth again. But it does not say that God would not wipe out humanity and start over again.

Most people enjoy watching movies of the Earth's Destruction. Deep Impact, Armageddon, The Day after Tomorrow, 2012, and many more. The History Channel even talks about mega Disasters. (I know who can believe what the History Channel says.) Could God destroy the earth in a different way? God destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah through fire. Some people believe that is how he will do it on the last day as he burns and purifies the earth. Others may imagine a great light of transformation of the earth making it perfect once again.

But would it be possible for God to just send Fire or earthquake and wipe out most of the people on earth. Start over again with another 8 or 12 souls. Personally it would depend on whether I truly believe in the New Testament. If I only had the Old Testament I would ask Why hasn't God already done this. But because I have the grace of Christ. We have his death and resurrection, thus I can not believe God would do something like this other than on last Day. No Reboots any more. Thank you.

Set Theory on the Trinity

Many Theologians are not Mathematicians. But Theologies are really into Science. For some reason there is a greater cross over between Theology and Science than any other fields unless you Separate Math and Physic into different fields. But Set Theory at its basic is the idea of taking sets of numbers or things and showing relationships. We see this in Matrices or Venn-Diagrams. Now Theologians generally speaking would use a Venn-Diagram to describe the Trinity. A Theologian would usually talk about three circles one being the Father and another being the Holy Spirit and the Other being the Son. Thus, where these circles connect that is then called God. But this means that there is part of the Son which is not God. Part of the Holy Spirit which is not God. And part of the Father which is not God. This is not true. Rather you take a list of Sets. Take Set God which contains all the attributes of God. Then you take a Set called Holy Spirit it would contain all the attributes of God and y...

Biblical Marriage

Marriage is defined in Genesis as a man clinging to his wife and the two becoming one flesh. This definition is standardized even in the New Testament by both Jesus and St Paul. Therefore, we have generally said Marriage is defined as one Man and one Woman being joined together in a life long union. Most people think that this Marriage union is created through a man dressed in black and woman dressed in white walking down an aisle to be joined together before some kind of altar. But this is only a ceremony of marriage. The Bride and bridegroom are actually joined together through what is known as consummation, or proper sexual relations.  Thus, St Paul can even talk in reference to a marriage bed. This concept may be overlooked by a culture that no longer views the bed as the place where a majority of sexual activity takes place. But he states this because the marriage bed is the location in which a man and woman are joined together. Just as it was Rachael or Leah's tent in which t...

Human Reason is Faulty

The Confessors of the Augsburg Confession recognize another important lesson of which many easily lose sight. "They condemn the Pelagians and others who deny that the original fault is sin and who, in order to diminish the glory of Christ's merits and benefits, argue that human beings can be justified before God by their own powers of reason." Others may say by any use of their mental faculties or even their own decision. When you deny originl fault effects your reason or mental faculties you deny original fault or sin. If human beings claim any power for their own Justification they deny original sin or Fault. But our Human Reason is completely Corrupt. Therefore, St Paul can say mean's wisdom is foolishness to God. Therefore, Anyone who thinks they can make a decision for Christ is wrong. In other words their Reason is faulty. Human Reason leads to wild heretical thoughts whie God reveals the turth. Humans can rightly ask who can say what is right? But God s...
