Is The Way International a Christian Nationalist group?
oldiesman replied to penworks's topic in About The Way
Agree. I believe they also believed then (as perhaps they do today) that belief in Jesus Christ only is required for salvation and completely fulfills the Abrahamic covenant. As said in Romans, TWI drilled into us that both Jew and Gentile form one Body of Christ which is the only way to salvation. (THERE IS NO OTHER WAY). This is sometimes referred to as "replacement theology". Here's what AI says and I believe it fits with TWI beliefs: Key aspects of Replacement Theology include The Church as the "New Israel": Proponents believe the Church is now the true, spiritual Israel, inheriting the blessings and roles originally promised to the Jewish nation. Abolishment or Fulfillment of Covenants: Replacement theology suggests that the Old Testament Mosaic covenant and potentially the Abrahamic covenant have been either abolished or fulfilled by the New Covenant in Christ. This can imply that the land promises made to Israel in the Old Testament are no longer relevant in a literal sense. Israel's Diminished or Ended Role: This view asserts that God's program and interest in the nation of Israel, as a distinct entity, have ended following their rejection of Jesus as Messiah. -
Is The Way International a Christian Nationalist group?

Thank you penworks. You're research proves that even AI doesn't know it all! I did a few other AI searches with some of your research material, and AI included snippets of your information not posted in the first AI search. So overall I believe this proves that AI isn't comprehensive all the time... Something good to know for future reference... -
I remember the opposite... I believe they said that what we feed our conscious brains will seep in to the subconscious; and that's why retemories are very good.

OK so I'm driving or riding on the highway and my free will says to keep moving and I love to and want to. Suddenly, an urgent bodily function tells my brain that I'm about to sht in my pants. So what does my "free will" do? Continue and sht in my pants, or stop the vehicle, run to the trees and bushes nearby and take care of business? I don't know. I'm free to take care of business which overruled my freedom to continue moving. So I believe therein lies the glaring truth that I can't have uninterrupted free will. Just in case you're wondering, this has happened to me more than once.

There you go. OldSkool and Rocky just proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that I don't have total free will. And probably you don't either.

Thank you..

Thanks WordWolf! I'm currently on Windows Firewall and have purchased a yearly subscription to Iolo System Mechanic... that does daily cleanups I think there's a free antivirus on my laptop called Microsoft Defender... What I want is more speed when surfing... and notice that the older my laptop gets (it's currently around 7 years old) the slower it seems to get. any other tips? Thanks!

This is definitely the first pressing...

Wasn't planning on it so no -- but I think it'd be nice to have the latest update on TWI members and teachings.

He's still preaching...

I liked it and gave me a reason to visit the HQ grounds.

Thank you Wordwolf. So I've been using laptops that have Windows 11; is the Opera system less spy-prone and would that increase processor power? (I currently use Chrome). Thx.

That's great and glad its working for you. Seems like a promising treatment for many folks suffering from obesity.

Why I Wrote My Story -- "Insanity on Steroids"
oldiesman replied to skyrider's topic in About The Way
I agree! A tremendous example of love and caring... thank you Raf. -
Thank you for the report Seth. How long have you been on Ozempic and what are the side effects if any? I've heard great things about it. Did you settle on a dose and keep on that dose for a long time? Thx.
-
I don't do much office work anymore but find Apache which takes the place of Microsoft Word pretty good to use for simple letters.. its free and works the same. So you recommend moving over to Linux from either Google or Edge? Other than lack of spying, is there any other benefit?

Speaking in tongues: A new angle
oldiesman replied to Raf's topic in Atheism, nontheism, skepticism: Questioning Faith
I think it's a question of faith like anything else biblical. Raf, I'm still completely hooked on SIT and I love it. I go religiously to Roman Catholic Mass, the traditional one that's only in Latin. (and the trads do not believe in SIT as regular prayer.) But I'm there in the front row with SIT anyway. I believe it's profitable -- I've heard it said that some catholic theologians and those in the Novus Ordo Vatican 2 charismatic movement find value in SIT for personal prayer and devotion, and as a way to express feelings to God when words fail. I've persoally seen them hold services where they SIT out of order i.e. with no interpretor--- Paul is clear that it's only for quiet personal use unless interpreted and I would like to see them do it correctly if it's out there.
