Ask an alcoholic who hates his addiction. Then ask him how his addiction got started. A child born to a full blown alcoholic can already be one, just like a drug addict. Those who think it's alright... take your cold brew to church at the next pot luck & tell me how that turns out. BTW, if you...

You receive a word as prophetic from someone you don't even know? How do you know if anyone's a prophet, because they say so?

Just as we chose christ for salvation, we can choose to leave Him. It's a life of believing faith till the end. Matt 24:9“Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and put you to death, and you will be hated by all nations for my name’s sake. 10And then many will fall awaya and betray one...

Commitment involves active faith and obedience. Choosing not to believe in Christ anymore destroys everything in that person's life, including their salvation. Believing means continued believing, not a one-and-done thing.

If a word 'resonates' with me it means my flesh is feeling it & has no spiritual validity at all. You would think in these last days there would be some warning prophecies about getting ready to meet the Lord or warnings about the spirit of antichrist increasing in the world. Read the OT...

Perhaps the real horror is comparing the first century church to the falling away. :rolleyes:

Coffee is OK.... but the downward spiral begins. First they want donuts, then breakfast, a meal after church, food/snacks on Wednesday night, I've seen a church graduate to full blown meals every service. They increase in food but end up never getting fed.

All seeing eye, eye of providence, the eye of Horus, from the Illuminati & Freemasonry (freemasonry was infiltrated by the Illuminati in the later 1700's) The Illuminati is the real 1%'ers. The group to install the Antichrist into power. They are currently setting the world stage for the...

The fallen away(christians) WILL go into the tribulation to be judged by God for apostasizing. That's what the tribulation is for. And, NOOO... I don't want to hear the lie that the tribulation is for apostasizing sinners who were never saved to begin with. Sinners can't apostasize.

The church hardly considers how in the last days the religious sector must be taken over just like the govts, industry, Education, & media to prepare the way for the Antichrist. This time Barna was spot on.

Me too! It's my sincerest hope you will be built up & not let down.(y)

Wecome to CC, Rachael. I hope you find what you need/looking for on this site.

Matt 13 is the Parable of the Sower Parable - a simple story used to illustrate a moral or spiritual lesson Since parables are illustrating truth, no exact doctrine can come from them. 30,60, & 100 merely shows the magnitude of how great God can multiply the seed of the Gospel we sow, making...

I agree with Dino that "tithing" is one of those things that the church has taken out of context. The teaching of it is nowhere in the NT. That said, My daughter & her husband 'tithe' by setting aside 10% to give to those in need, in or out of the church. They are blessed, not because not...

I get it. The govts are bad, industry is monopolizing & manipulative, & many in the church are following men. We can see the antichrist spirit in the world, twisting laws & systems to do its bidding. Now churches are being pulled into it. But that is no reason to lose hope. A city on a hill...

This thread has me curious, not for the subject matter, but the 'name' of its author. Why is your name CheckeredHeart? To me, it doesn't 'seem' to be a quality christian name. Did you name yourself that on purpose?

In my youth, I had a vision of myself preaching behind a pulpit. Now that I'm older, I have dreams. That proves the truth I didn't want to accept - I'm old! :eek:

We don't celebrate "that day" as if it can only happen on "that day". It really doesn't matter if the day is right if the teaching is right. The Holy Spirit could baptize you on April Fool's day if you're seeking the Lord on that day. The point is "do you want all God has for you?" Are you...

I am done here. I've done all I can do. If anyone needs prayer or anything, send me a message. I'll be happy to help.:)

No, WE DO.
