John 15:12 .) This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.
13 .) Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.
14 .) Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you.
15 .) Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you.

I have no idea where else to ask this?
It is not a "new thread" worthy question.
It's actually quite trivial.

Is there any reason why most people don't capitalize the word "Bible"?

Is there some thing I'm missing here?
A legalist thing or issue?
Or do people just not want to do it?

Not that it matters either way, nor do I care that people don't do it.....
......but wouldn't someone capitalize any other book when referencing it?

Like?
I just read Gone With The Wind.

Or even in question form.....
Why did you just read Gone With The Wind Reborn?

Help? :)

I wonder that all the time as well............and there more than a few who do not capitalize God and Jesus..........beats me.

I have heard that in some instances when someone is on a phone.....that caps are hard to do.......??? I know when I text, only the first letter of the text will show up in caps...........dunno........

But if one is on a computer with a keyboard, I don't see any excuse for not capitalizing Holy Bible, God, Jesus Christ, or the Holy Spirit. Isn't that the very least amount of respect we could pay them?

"Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy Name......" is how I would do it, but that's just me...........so

Luke 14:12 .) Then said he also to him that bade him, When thou makest a dinner or a supper, call not thy friends, nor thy brethren, neither thy kinsmen, nor thy rich neighbours; lest they also bid thee again, and a recompence be made thee.
13 .) But when thou makest a feast, call the poor, the maimed, the lame, the blind:
14 .) And thou shalt be blessed; for they cannot recompense thee: for thou shalt be recompensed at the resurrection of the just.

Just came home from work. Anybody in the mood for coffee with irish cream flavor (no real alc, just the flavor :) )?
I've been thinking that we could join together in prayer here every evening and use this thread more usefully. Bring up stuff to pray about. Your country, your own needs, family, friends, people you encounter.
For now, all that I can think of is, God, make our posts on here and words elsewhere be edifying.

And I have in my spirit to pray against somethings. I rarely pray against anything but now I feel led to.
Another "big fish" drug dealer in my country who holds the whole country's narcotic trade has paid and been released from jail, they supposedly dont have proofs or something like that. He is not the first. Seems like justice cant catch these people and it is a mockery every time? Praying that God will fight against these hardhearted men who destroy the whole country with their criminal webs, until they are broken and come to Him on their knees. Praying that especially this guy who has been just released and the other one before him, who laughed at the court at everybody, will be hit where they dont expect. Please everyone reading join me so this petition may come up before God. Humble them God. Make them fall and make them look for you so everybody will know and fear God's name and not laugh even when caught like they do now and rejoice in evil and murder witnesses. Break them for a testimony and warning to others. Strike them with a wound that will not heal so they will be forced to look to You alone for healing. I would really like to see these people coming to You Jesus, much to amazement of other criminals so they may also reconsider and be saved. God I know You can make it happen. Praying that it is done for the sake of fear of God's name and His glory! amen

I spent Valentines Day doing my company taxes.
No love there.
The first time in a long time I have spent it alone.
Well?...does working with my accountant count?

Anyway?....after he left....my imaginary friend and I, played video games for an hour, and he beat me at a game of chess.
I think he cheated at both.

It's not like I've ever said that I had an imaginary girlfriend....sheesh,....I'm not nuts or anything. :p

Psalms 66:16) Come and hear, all ye that fear God, and I will declare what he hath done for my soul. 17 .) I cried unto him with my mouth, and he was extolled with my tongue. 18 .) If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me:
19 .) But verily God hath heard me; he hath attended to the voice of my prayer. 20 .) Blessed be God, which hath not turned away my prayer, nor his mercy from me.

I think there were 3 of them?
The first movie was an 'event', big CGI production....in 2011 maybe?
Second movie was a 'get together', ....slightly less coverage.

Third movie ......was .......made...... for about 3 people.

I'm serious.

Although,.... come to think of it, I might be the only person you'd find on an atlas, to see any of them?
P.S......I still don't have any clue who John Galt is? :(

somewhat random question....
why in the world would an atheist spend a bunch of time reading and posting at a Christian site??

i mean, they must be getting something out of it...right?
are they proselytizing? have they had success in the past?
are they just angry and lashing out?

sigh. people confuse me.

It's actually not confusing.
They are debating God that talks with them inside, and where to debate God better than in a Christian forum?
You cant prove God faulty, but you can do so with people because no man is perfect. Then you can seem "right".

I've wondered the same thing often..i know some atheists don't believe in God, so why come to a christian site where everyone believes in God? I'd love to talk to an atheist to find an answer to that question..
