    Music at church today

    Hello Tstumf., :) What you shared is EXACTLY what I was looking for. You are also a testament to the fact that music speaks to each of us differently. Over the last few years I struggled listening to the new church worship music. God made it very clear to me He uses music that is not my...

    Music at church today

    Hi "odd duck" :) I'm an odd duck too. The older I get the more it's teaching me that not everyone likes the beauty I do. They like things I can't stand and it's simply just personality differences. Years ago I would sorely judge others if they didn't like the same things., think the same...

    Music at church today

    Hi GiveThanks., YES each generation has music they like. I really enjoy sometimes listening to my parent's music from the 40s and 50s. Driving to work with coffee in hand and upbeat fun music is a "pick me up" Maybe I'm a bit strange like that with the 40s & 50s 60's nostalgia . In the 70s...

    Music at church today

    I was saved in 1982 and was raised on the wonderful Hymns of the faith in our Hymnals. We learned them and sang them all the time. I can sing them all today from memory. The music in words and message was often Scripture and lovely and encouraging pointing to the Bible. Today I have a hard...

    I get nervous praying out loud - help

    Oh my goodness yes I still get nervous like that when praying out loud at certain times with lots of people. My personality has a lot to do with it. I go to a Spirit filled church too and the people are wonderful. I think for some of us it takes time and practice to pray with other people...

    Warning to Christians: Totally Refuse COVID Vaccines

    I'm a health care worker in AZ working in many different homes and so thankful the company I work for is not trying to force us to get the shot. Although they are highly recommending it and offering it for free. I will not be getting the shot no more than any flu vaccines I've made the choice...

    Warning to Christians: Totally Refuse COVID Vaccines

    Is it necessary to bring up personal knowledge and or feelings about another believer on their thread that has nothing to do with the topic at hand? Shouldn't you leave it to God to deal with what you believe is a brothers consistent dogmatic ways? Just for the record not all street...

    Trust in the Lord, not man, but wait?

    The Bible says because of the Holy Spirit's ministry to us we don't need men to teach us., we have Him. The Bible says God always uses His people in our lives "Pastors., preachers, teachers, evangelists etc...but it's Him who uses them to teach us so we can do the same for others. So many...

    Is repentance necessary for forgiveness?

    It was wonderful for me to find out that repentance is about a change of MIND. (renewing of your mind) When the Holy Spirit has shown someone the truth of Jesus Christ. That individual's eyes are OPENED and he/she then believes what the Bible says; that Jesus ALONE saves not his/her...

    Blind to grace .

    Sad to say I agree with you., Christians have been known to shoot their own. Grace is a supernatural truth that the natural man will not receive. Unfortunately many a believer walks in the natural. All us believers will STILL BE LEARNING for as long as we are in these mortal bodies to...

    Trump has tested positive for COVID-19.

    Agree with you 100%. I'm shocked at how easy it is for different governments in the world (especially here in America) to scare the public into compliance. Watching the people in my community run around with these stupid masks is quite discouraging. Democrat socialists who fight for the "right"...

    Trump has tested positive for COVID-19.

    I appreciate how President Trump handled his experience with covid. He behaved as a leader should not succumbing to the fakenews MSM outlets but stood as a major contrast against them as he always has. Fear has a life of it's own & those who allow it to live&rule in their lives will be governed...

    Trump has tested positive for COVID-19.

    During this pandemic & really in all areas of the Christian life., the truth prevails that FEAR is not of God it comes from the enemy who comes to kill steal & destroy. John 10:10 It goes to reason & Bible fact that all this fear mongering from the world is the spirit of antichrist that is...
