    when coffee becomes sin.

    No I don't think it's sinful to drink coffee, until it becomes to much of a thing in your life, or the habit starts causing health issues or cost too much or interferes with our walk. it's an easy thing to overlook since it isn't talked about directly in the bible, but like anything else It can...

    The Difference

    I think your on the right track. I often find myself thinking, is this a sin? I don't want to sin, but it happens. sometimes I knew it was a sin, and I regret it. Others I have to think about a bit. If I was completely sinning willfully I wouldn't be debating it before hand. As for the type...

    How do you talk to people about sin?

    Here is the correct order these things should follow. As someone who had it done in to me in reverse it's to be done like this for good reason. 15 “If your brother or sister sins, go and point out their fault, just between the two of you. If they listen to you, you have won them over...

    Should Christians be allowed to own a gun legally?

    Not exactly an unheard of distance for people hunting in the open country either.

    Not sure if I ever received the Holy Spirit

    Being filled with the holy spirit can be thought of as a metaphor, it's there but it isn't always obvious. You may have an experience now and then where the holy spirit is fairly obvious, hence filled, I've had a few such moments, but don't assume you don't have it just because you don't see it...

    Should Christians be allowed to own a gun legally?

    yes lethal range means squat, a 22lr can be lethal to about 1.5 miles, that doesn't make it equal to an actual sniper rifle. 500 yards was the effective range of an 1873 sharps buffulo rifle, wanna ban those? as for capacity, they've had higher capacity magazines for over 100 years and since...

    Should Christians be allowed to own a gun legally?

    end of the day it's pretty light round, and 500 yard lethal range means nothing. a conspiracy theory about the choice of round for the m-16(which the a-r is a dumbed down version of) was to make it so women would be comfortable using it. the older garand was chambered in the much larger and far...

    Should Christians be allowed to own a gun legally?

    That's ridiculous. Nobody fights battle with melee weapons today. PS, the AR isn't military grade despite what bragging preppers and owners will tell you, and the .223 round is a woman's round.

    Infiltration of the Church

    $600 isn't all that high for suits these days. What is a pastor supposed to wear?

    Infiltration of the Church

    complete joke, as most people are who complain about how other people dress. either set a dress code or don't, it's that simple.

    Olympic Opening Ceremony and Celebrating Perversity

    I don't even watch the olympics, and this has me smacking my head wondering "Why?" Even if it wasn't a mockery(which looking at the available data it was) it's still terrible, especially for an athletic event. At least it's losing them money on account of their stupidity.

    Fellowship With Transgenders

    I was talking about handling someone online, specifically the apparent trans poster in this thread, so unless you're actually going to hunt this person down, stop talking. PS, I also don't think it's a good idea to fly off the handle at other board members who are straight that you don't agree...

    Fellowship With Transgenders

    Yes it not a good idea to fly off the handle with trans/crossdressing accusations. seems this was handled well the problem was pointed out with self control and nobody went off the deep end.

    Fellowship With Transgenders

    While it's not uncommon for someone not to like some particular aspect(s) of their gender, the notion that the solution is to change it completely seems a really dangerous idea, basically substituting one problem for another. That being said, trans isn't mentioned directly a whole lot in the...

    Fellowship With Transgenders

    I personally wouldn't apply that particular verse on account of the ethopian eunich, on the other hand deuteronomy 22:5 in this case I think we can apply as it was intended(understand I find a lot of people using that verse like to abuse it), fundamentally presenting oneself as the opposite...
