I have become fascinated by the Prophet Zechariah. His prophecies are considered both Messianic and apocalyptic. The last chapter, Zechariah 14, contains some very interesting statements given world events during the past year. For example: In verse 1 it is written that the Lord will be...

Yes, I have heard that too.

On October 2, we celebrate the 5th Feast outlined in the First Testament and celebrated by our Messiah. This is the Feast of Trumpets. For perspective, The Feast of Passover acknowledges the salvation of sinners through the Blood of the Lamb. This is followed the next day with the Feast of...

Great!

Welcome BrendaAlv. We are happy you have joined CC. There is much here to learn and enjoy. Maybe just a small word of caution about judgements. You are accepted here just as you are and I have found no instances of people being judged by where they are in their walk. That said, people do...

I can only pray that everyone will take a few minutes to view this video. God made a covenant with His People and with His Land. That promise is everlasting. He also made it clear the land would prosper for his people and wither away to nothing for those who reject him. Jeremiah 33:12 “Thus...

How about "Real Christians" who ignore all the church baggage and goes to services to worship God. Many times they reject church and human made doctrines and seek truth as best they can. They realize we live in a fallen world with faulty churches and sinful people, yet still go out every day...

This was my favorite picture from that challenge. We can be broken by life, battered and abused; unable to rise out of bed with matted hair and broken teeth but we are never lost.

In a bible study, the class was shown a picture that was a person at the instant they knew the truth and understood they were lost forever. We were challenged to find an opposite picture, one of a person at the moment they saw heaven and knew it was their eternal destination.

He is placing his personal benefit above that of his followers, he cannot possibly be preaching truth.

I must note that Paul refused to take payment for any of his sermons. At one point he even took on the work of a tanner, the worst and most disrespected labor of his time, to support himself during his mission. Your husband was deceived by this "Pastor". His heart was in the right place...

Please know; I do not expect nor desire to change your views. I give them full respect. I am, rather, addressing your question as best I can. I generally refrain from using out-of-context bible quotes to "prove" a point. Also by your question it appears you have already dismissed the entire...

My aim is to keep all Gods word. Now "in spirit and truth" as he instructed. That's what my post was all about.

I do not find it difficult to understand why the "unchurched" find the "churched" so unforgiving.

As I stated, these have been elevated by Yeshua from the physical to the spiritual. My entire post, largely ignored, addressed that very issue. And for those of you accusing me of being judgmental, please show me where! Thank you.

You are most certainly not a stick-in-the mud, in fact we absolutely agree. God gave us these special occasions to help us keep thanksgiving, confession and awareness of his presence in our minds every day. He gave us other tools for the same purpose but they too remain ignored and rejected...

We are approaching the most holy days of God’s year. It begins on October 2nd with the Feast of Trumpets, continues through the Day of Atonement; and is completed with the Feast of Tabernacles on October 17th. These holy days were first given as physical celebrations with specific and...

I prefer to not read he Bible straight through. For me, I would miss many of the wonders and mysteries that are woven throughout God's word. I "bunny hop" at every opportunity. Reading the prophets, for example, requires an understanding of Torah and I find myself frequently bouncing around...

Only once since I got up this morning....I'm getting better!

I absolutely agree with your statement: "Every church really should have a ministry of dedicated people to take care of visiting and helping the needy. " Very few churches have operational plans in place to appropriately meet, greet and mentor visitors.
