Sounds like very wise advice to me!!!

My post was just trying to explain that I believe that anyone may turn to Christ as long as they are living and breathing. The thief had very little time to live. He admitted that he was indeed guilty. Confessed He recognized Jesus for who He was and what He could do. He had trust He ask for...

39 One of the criminals who were hanged railed at him, saying, “Are you not the Christ? Save yourself and us!” 40 But the other rebuked him, saying, “Do you not fear God, since you are under the same sentence of condemnation? 41 And we indeed justly, for we are receiving the due reward of our...

I don’t think so! However, it does show a sadness in the face. Maybe that is because of what we as a nation have become!

Avoid Triangles

I agree! Even the best of Christians can never keep the law perfectly. That's where grace comes in, through our trust in the work that Christ has done on our behalf. When we look within we are beating ourselves up which puts our assurance in doubt. We begin doubting our standing and...

Jimbone, I know that many will disagree with me, but I do not put much importance in being baptized following coming to faith in Christ. It is OK for a non-believer to be baptized, even as a child, as a promise that they are being set aside and belong to the Lord. This in no way means that they...

The prayer mentioned is certainly a good prayer. However, it assumes “If I do this, then this will happen”. This seems to be a works based solution, trusting in yourself to bring about your own salvation. I'm not saying that there is no way that what you ask will not be provided. The Lord...

Every evening it sinks into a hole that has been dug by a Platypus. You would know this if you were a better student of the Quran!

I see nothing in the 14th chapter which talks about Christian transgenders. In fact, I would argue that there is no such thing! Anyone living like this is living in sin! Church discipline is laid out in Matthew 18 In Matthew 18:15-17, Jesus sets forth the fourstep process of church...

I will certainly pray that the Spirit will strengthen you to overcome this sin. Although you have slipped, please understand that the very fact that it is bothering you says a lot! If you were not a Christian it probably wouldn't bother you at all!

Your example does not hold water. It is based on man's understanding of responsibility and blame. However, with God we are just as responsible for the eating of that apple as was Adam! Rom 5:18 Therefore, as one trespass led to condemnation for all men, so one act of righteousness leads to...

Haven't you ever had a flat tire?

I fried some eggs on it once, and it was so flat that they didn't slide off!

Maybe you give YouTube too much credit for stating the truth, or perhaps you personally know someone who has taken this path in their life and are trying to justify it as being OK. But the truth is that it is not OK and more often than not causes further problems as well, such as influencing...

I hear what you are saying! I have also struggled with the Old Testament. Books like Numbers and Leviticus make my mind wonder because they often seem to be saying the same thing over and over. I also have trouble with books like Daniel and Revelation because of the various visions. You might...

Denise04, Although my prayers seem often weak, I will set aside time to pray for both of you. I do know that the Lord has often helped me and I pray that He will comfort you both.

We all come into this world as fallen creatures. Sin and the desire to sin clings to us because of the failure of the 1st Adam. Our Desires come from a corrupt heart because of the fall. After being saved our desires change but sin still clings to us. We are not yet perfected! If there is...

I'm not perfect and if I get something wrong I like to admit that I'm wrong and learn from others. However, I cannot see his view of scripture and he cannot see my view. Therefore, we both learn nothing from each other. Maybe there will be another topic on which we have some agreement...

I wish that I could thank you for your input. But, as it is, we are so far apart on our understanding of scripture that we should cease to argue. It is pointless to go on because we will never agree.
