    Please pray for me

    1Jn 1:9 If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. Jas 4:8-10 Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded. Be miserable and mourn and...

    In the Waiting Room

    Rev 21:1-4 Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth; for the first heaven and the first earth passed away, and there is no longer any sea. And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, made ready as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the...

    DEPRESSION

    A few verses that I have found helpful in depression: Psa 27:13 I would have despaired unless I had believed that I would see the goodness of the LORD In the land of the living. Psa 34:18-19 The LORD is near to the brokenhearted And saves those who are crushed in spirit. Many are the...

    Wealth

    In the rich young ruler passage, Jesus tells him to sell all he has and give to the poor to show him that he is imperfect, flawed and can not keep all of the law, and therefore can not save himself by trying to keep the law. He needs to realize his need for the savior, that his works are flawed...

    Wealth

    I agree with OneOfHis. These verses came to mind immediately. I'm sure you know John 3:16. But take a look at the next two verses: Joh 3:17 "For God did not send the Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world might be saved through Him. Joh 3:18 "He who believes in Him is...

    Lets Learn Spanish

    I have found spelling in Spanish to be easier than English. I've found that if you pronounce the Spanish word correctly and know a few rules of Spanish spelling you can spell the word correctly. But English spelling is a mess because English has been influence by many other languages like...

    What does this have to do with the Holidays?

    The question in the OP was what does this song have to do with Christmas. The answer is nothing at all. You like the song fine. But it has nothing to do with Christmas and I wasn't responding to anything you wrote.

    What does this have to do with the Holidays?

    It is strictly a humanistic secular song with no spiritual meaning at all. Hallelujah (praise God) is being used as a secular expletive. It appeals to people who are spiritually dead.

    How to break the habit of procrastination

    This is a rather big question actually. Procrastination could be for one of many different reasons. You could actually be tired and worn out and not have the energy to do anything, so you need to rest first. You could be putting something off because you don't know how to solve the problem...

    Mental illness or Demonic oppression?

    I think making broad claims like this give Christianity a bad reputation. I would never make a claim like this, there are so many other possibilities.

    The Pilgrims Progress

    I saw the movie and thought it was great, very inspirational and encouraging. I read the book a long time ago and have a paperback version, but downloaded a more modern English version for my Kindle. I also ordered about 6 copies of the CD to send to Christian friends and family for them to...

    A warning from God

    But it hasn't acutually happened. Stay calm and report back if anything actually happens. There is no proof this is from God. People have "visions" for a variety of medical problems or because they are on powerful perscription drugs etc. I had some pretty crazy dreams once when I was in the...

    Is boredom an issue in your life?

    My TV died in the late 1990's sometime. I never replaced it. YouTube tends to make up for it, but I try to read more.

    Speaking Truth in a Culture of Unbelievers

    I don't think we have to tip toe around the word sin. I would use it and see how the individual responds to it. That will tell you a lot about what their position and attitude is. If they don't know what it means, define it for them, I doubt you will run into many that don't already know. If...

    Fear has paralyzed me and now I'm helpless

    Everyone has fears and many other problems, you are not alone in this. But the believer in Christ has a solution, a hope based on the the Word of God and the development of the "mind of Christ". This is not a quick solution, it takes time and commitment. You grow in faith and spiritual...

    Spiritual Dreams

    What do you mean by a spiritual dream? How do you distinguish it from any other dream?

    Robot 'Killed' After Being 'Run Over' By Self-Driving Tesla There's video

    The idiot checking the robot never looks at the oncoming traffic. Did he think he was immune to being the next victim? Maybe he is a designer with blind faith in his self-driving creations.

    How mysticism is undermining Bible Christianity today

    But Paul wrote this in AD 61 prior to the completion of the canon of scripture. In other words there was still lots of objective revelation to come from the writers of scripture.
