What’s an ometh? And an eth? Or are you referring to the old language style that is employed in KJV as well?

Mormon and Catholic are way off the beaten path of what I believe… so don’t bother bringing any of their views and theories into this. :-D

Thank you Balungaloaf! atleast…. I think…

Now, I must ask again, what version are you reading? And did you come up with all these theories on your own? Or did someone tell you all this?

MD, it will never make sense if you never give it a chance, it’s called faith because it can’t make sense to a person who doesn’t believe. Also, if the Bible is true than even the Heavens declare the glory of God and the firmament showeth his handiwork. Meaning that even people who have never heard of Jesus, can tell by looking at nature that some great Creator made all of this. And they have no excuse for not realizing that when the day of judgement comes. But there is a chance for those alive on earth who have never heard of Jesus, to come to repentance during the Tribulation period, the problem is not all of them will.

Also, don’t bother helping us, all your doing is putting you own false spin on what we believe. So either stay on your side of the debate or stay out of it. Don’t try to jump on this ship just so you can sink it.

I agree with NoMercy, bringing catholism into this discussion and asking a baptist or 2 to rationalize what they do or what they say is pointless, there is no explaining how they come about with their religion. They even use extracanonical books in what they consider the BIBLE.

Also, when the Bible says Mary was a virgin, it means she KNEW NO MAN, not that she was sinless. Because the Bible states that ALL HAVE SINNED AND COME SHORT OF THE GLORY OF GOD. not All except MARY were sinners.

Switch, salvation also only works if you believe, and mean it from your heart, since you don’t appear to believe now, I highly doubt you did then.

By Jesus saying “for such is the kingdom of heaven” in reference to the children, he was basically trying to say, that he came to save all men, not just those who were important, or of a certain age, at the time of his ministry. And bible says in Romans 5:12 that by “one man sin entered the world”. It’s hereditary, because Adam sinned, his seed is not worthy of the kingdom of heaven, though, babies, up to what Baptists consider “the age of accountability” do enter the kingdom of heaven if they die without maturing to the point that they can understand that they are sinners. But you can’t say that children are pure and sinless that’s for sure, a baby that cries just for the attention even if nothing is wrong, is being selfish, a child who lies has sinned, a child who disobeys his parents has sinned. You’re born a sinner by the very nature of man.

Jennifer I’m afraid you and I aren’t reading the same version of the English Bible. The Book of Romans deals extensively with the fact that all men are BORN sinners, and the books of John, and Hebrews, state the fact that Salvation is a permanent thing.

EDIT: That is of course, if you read the King James Version… I have no idea what the other more modernized versions have to say about it.

Yeah that is pretty obvious from actually READING the Bible before you comment on it. Your post didn’t make you seem very worthy to debate on subjects of the Bible, if you didn’t know something that obvious…… sorry if that sounds harsh… but it’s kinda common knowledge

But Jen, lets not forget that after one accepts salvation one cannot lose it, no matter how far they “backslide” afterwards. They are still a child of God.

And infact Jesus did go about telling everyone he saw about God, because he was doing his Father’s work, and if you read the Gospels you would find he is either preaching to thousands at a time, or teaching his disciples, or performing miracles in Gods name.

The UK Pacific fleet is worth alot more than 28 IPC’s…… it’s an AC 2 TRN 1 FGT 1 SS 1 DD

62 IPC’s … it’s a strong force and should be used to it’s fullest… because 62 IPC’s worth of navy NOT used and killed by Japan is just horrible… as NoMercy and I learned in our early games.

But maybe he plays someone who DOESN’T take Egypt with Germany first turn…… yes they do exist.

I believe that the US should attempt Naval Superiority in the Pacific… as if they don’t the Japanese can pour ALL of their IPC’s into Asia which NO Russian player wants… with the American’s distracting SOME of their IPC’s to the Pacific by putting ALL US IPC’s there… then the Japanese need to choose between a split … giving the US Superiority… or Putting all their IPC’s into keeping up with the US.

Japan cannot have enough money to keep up with a FULL US pacific campaign AND take ASIA.

Hi, I was wondering where I can get information about the Advance Historical Axis and Allies Europe game which is found in Abattlemap…. such as what the anchor symbols are for… some normal strategies… and also if this isn’t the right place to post about it, can someone direct me to the proper Forum?

In my game with NoMercy… the following situation arose:

NoMercy moved 3 fighters from Norway to seazone 12… with the plan to move his AC from SZ 5 to SZ 7 (between Spain and UK) to land the surviving fighters on.

But all his fighters died…

We would both like to know if since all 3 fighters died… does the AC still need to go to SZ 7 so that the fighters move isn’t considered “Kamikazi” or is it free to go on it’s merry way to SZ 3 with the rest of the navy since the fighters are destroyed anyway.

I know that had the fighters lived… it would be illegal to sink them in the ocean and move the AC … but since they are dead the ruling is less clear.

(the UK owns Algeria so they couldn’t have landed there).

I’m going to say it in this topic too… as it applies here.

Try taking the destroyer to the transport… the fighter and 2 INF from india to Borneo… and leave the AC in the seazone…

If you’d rather have your navy survive the counter attack then you could put the DST in the SZ off Borneo too… but if you take out the TRNS in 59 then you get an extra turn to hold onto Borneo … more money to UK to fight in the Atlantic/Europe front… less money to Japan for 2 or 3 turns… making a US naval supremecy happen much faster in the Pacific… cause lets face it… Japan starts with a HUGE navy… but without atleast 30 IPCs they aren’t going to get that much more built… unless they want to give up the mainland.

Germany never takes Japan  8-).

And I don’t see how the Japanese can take Australia in J 2 with only Transport off of Japan in SZ 60.

2 infantry cannot take Australia on it’s own… and if the Japanese split their navies too much the Americans can have a strong presense in the Pacific by that time anyway.

In my game with Spook… the navy off of Borneo faired incredibly well… fighting off the first attack on it.

As for India… the J player needs to choose between Taking India… China or defending Manchuria… it can’t do all 3 things at once the way this UK turn sets up… if it puts all its FIC forces into India… it has to put everything else into China to take it, and there won’t really be many units left there after the battle is resolved… and Manchuria will be almsot defenseless to the 6 R INF in Buryatia.

For this too make sense to anyone you’d have to think through where EACH country (J,R,UK,US) are sitting after this UK 1 move and what position the Japanese are in to counter on 3 naval fronts (assuming the AUS fleet took out the Solomons sub) and 2 Mainlaind fronts.

Actually the Borneo strategy is viable as most players have never had to defend against it and it can confuse them the first time… if they divide their navy wrong they can lose the battle off of borneo and it does take a turn or 2 to get Borneo back… 4 BIG IPCs for UK to counter the African loss… and 4 IPCs less for Japan to use against the mainland and the Americans… if Japan diverts that one transport they have left… then the mainland is looking pretty good to those 6 R INF on Buryatia… especially if the J player felt that China was more important than defending Manchuria…

Basically it allows ALL 3 Allied countries to put pressure on J early and can make an unexperienced Japanese player spread themselves out too thin… plus any time you can force your opponent to make a new strategy on the spot it’s a good thing… alot of players have their opening moves “down-packed” … especially Japan as the majority of UK players don’t pressure Japan in the Pacific… and most Russian players will put those 6 INF in Buryatia every game… making them face the same situation on their first turn almost EVERY time… allowing them to use a perfected opening move.
