Fair enough.

So you are saying that knowing the definition of a word is personal interpretation of the scripture? There is a big difference between that and saying that a portion of the scripture was Paul's opinion and did not come from God. As far as the Hebrews go, it seems very clear that the message is not to give enableing handouts, but rather give the opportunity for help through work and effort.

12. There were more passes where Hemple chose to run.

If you have faith in the Bible, Paul is writing from the direction of God. I think that trying to break down the written word as being from the point of view of the person who wrote the verse is a humanistic stance toward the Bible, and not one of faith in its teachings. I once again will say that I find it difficult that we are supposed to believe the verses that we choose to.

In the Old Testament the Hebrews who were wealthy were supposed to leave grain in the edge of the fields for the poor to pick on their own. They were not supposed to pick it for them and give it to them. My interpretation of these scriptures are that we are supposed to provide ability for people to enable themselves, not provide enabling for people to live off of others without personal sacrifice. As far as the word kill goes, kill in old text, according to many theological historians, reffered to murder and not self-defense.

As it should. Without that faith, you are not practicing Christianity. You are practicing humanism.

If you don't believe in the Bible as an absolute truth, are you just supposed to pick and choose the parts that you want to believe?

I believe that believing that Jesus is the son of God and my savior is the only way to reach Heaven. I also believe that we will all sin and will never reach the level of the forgiving figure Jesus was on Earth. I also believe in ritcheous indignation. In short, I try to live according to the principles of the Bible as close as I can, but I believe I will fail. I do however mean the Bible, and not just the New Testament. Jesus is my path to heaven as a sinner. His history in the Bible is not the only part of the book that I choose to attempt to adhere to.

That is why I pray for God's mercy and not his justice.

I am incorrect. I was confused with another story out of the Old Testament.

Pentecostal Church of God

Did Jesus not bring a man to his death who lied in the temple before him and God?

Nothing.

Seems my church has taught that the ancestors of the people who started the Muslim faith were the spawn of the illegitimate child of Abraham and Sarah's hand maiden, at least in early biblical history. Of course, the people that lived in these areas had a deep seeded hate for the Hebrews and were know by many different names throughout history. My point was that the hate goes back much further than both the Muslim and Christian religions.

Eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth, nail for a nail. Being a Christian doesn't mean you only abide by the principles established in the new testament IMO.

I would call it more sad than funny. Something easily solved by establishing a running program and practicing doubles.

Muslim vs. believer issues go back much further than Christ. Of course then there were no Christians, there were Jews.

Those things are much more likely to happen if the team is not in shape. Dixie is not in shape.

Yes

I would say that not having your kids in shape to play early in the season in a major problem.

JV games aren't counted.

Not a problem. Dixie was sadly out of shape. The worse coach in the U.S. has the ability to have his team in shape. IMO, not having your kids in shape to play is inexcusable.

I predict no more than 10 passes thrown the entire contest for both teams combined.

Brad Weber 6-3 265 offensive tackle for Ryle would be a soph to watch.

Hempel had eleven carries for 141 yards and a touchdown on the ground and was 66% with a td in the air.
