    Do you think finding a spouse is more difficult now than in the past?

    I read a statistic awhile back that basically said younger men are more likely now to be single whether they want to or not, strangely young women didn't have that problem, made no sense to me.

    good point, I may be tall but I'm no hulk, his weight would have been been a big factor as well.

    Did giants really exist?

    even using the dead sea scrolls 4 cubits and span going of egyptian cubuts it comes out to around 7' 6", a foot taller than the average NBA basket ball player, definitely what I'd call a giant.

    Did giants really exist?

    you know what I mean, a giant is someone significantly taller than normal, also of interest regarding goliath the dead sea scrolls actually give him a different height, I heard 4 cubits and span if I remember, of course the exact length of a cubit varied from region to region, royal cubits...

    prayer for temptation

    interesting, I've noticed in the past it really does boil down to following god, rather than resting on one's own. I often forget that.

    if we say we have no sin...... I feel if I argue the existence of this verse much more with this I'll start sinning.

    The Security Of The Believer

    Are you refering to events in acts like speaking in tongues where there was a special outpouring of the holy spirit? I already know not to live in sin, as for phillipians is that a typo? "where we are not doing things we know we shouldn't be doing" it reads as a double negative. I don't...

    The Security Of The Believer

    circuitous logic that doesn't clarify what you said, those that know their bible know getting saved requires the holy spirit, so I'm not sure what you're talking about. Repentance is taught everywhere in the bible sometimes directly to believers after the resurrection, so I'm not sure why you...

    glad you brought up john 1:9, obviously we're not supposed to be sinning as par the course, but as john also said, it happens sometimes, that's why he wrote that, the letter was written to a group of believers.

    The Security Of The Believer

    I'm just paraphrasing the explanation in romans. If your going to go to extremes, look at what peter did, he definitely slipped badly, All I'm saying is there's a difference between continuing in sin, and someone who screws up, but makes and effort to correct the behavior. If we say we have no...

    Well there's still the war with the flesh even after being set free, our inner delight should be with godly things, but unfortunately sin can still land a punch on us from time to time. We can ask forgiveness and hopefully strengthen ourselves to avoid sinning again.
