Oh, I did read quite a ways into this thread...here are a few thoughts regarding Babylon "Come out of her, my people" Doesn't necessarily mean a geographical change (as that is impractical for almost everyone) but can certainly be understood to mean "friendship with the world is enmity with...

Sounds like something to take up in prayer. I don't understand why money seems to be such an obstacle for so many things (ministry included) but it is. If you want to talk about it in a PM feel free to message me or I can initiate if you don't have access. I could throw out probably a...

I see you've developed a new system for bookmarking :) It's taken 4 years for me to utilize all the "shortcuts" the site has for ease of access (not easy to learn but nice once you do) Interesting topic though, I'll have to think about it. There are plenty of testimonies that aren't "stage...

Well it's alive again either way. Mods don't lock them (which arguably might be best) so it's going to keep happening regardless. With this one though it's actually gone somewhere (thus where "arguably" comes in). Most of the other times I see a gravebumped thread it dies almost immediately and...

healthandhappiness was the one who bumped it as far as I can tell. (perhaps justahumanbeings original post was removed though Personally I think it makes more sense to link back to an older thread depending but ironically I found a screenshot of a spoof magic card "Thread necromancer" on my HDD...

For those of you who may not know there is a test of the emergency broadcast alert system set to take place nationwide on all phones that have WEA (wireless emergency alerts). This test begins at 2:20 and will last for 30 minutes. I didn't really want to post this but if you happen to know...

88 MPH was required to get the Delorean up to speed enough to go "back to the future" I occasionally have dreams themed with worldly "markers". Happened a fair few times actually. Lately though it's been difficult to discern my "own spirit" from "a dream from God". Certainly proceed with...

The gamut (at least intellectually) when I'm "moody"... Past memories of sin are analyzed and considered when experiencing current struggles. I consider sin to be a transient anomaly that "someday" will be done away with when faith is made sight. Sometimes my method of addressing sin has me...

@Eli1 Thanks for posting #705 LOL I clicked on the first one and it pulls it up in a giant window (I'm on a PC) and I had more of a chuckle than I've had in quite a while. I've had a couple of mental images of people I got to know a little bit through text and it does happen that "some" are...

Sounds like you were young then...at this point (when pressed) my method would probably be to attempt to dismantle the "best friend" concept. A good friend though? A real friend? Fair-weather/foul? Definitions vary I don't think there's anything wrong with you attempting a re-connection with...

Well I admit since it was an "on purpose" instance (teacup poodle) it is a different category. I may have been remiss in using the most extreme example from the get go. Maybe a better example would have been an original BEAR which (based on ecology) resulted in Polar, grizzly, etcetera. Although...

I'm pretty confused man...What is it you think I'm proposing? I am meaning no offense with the following... For the record (it is a shame that misunderstandings occur so easily it seems) MICROevolution is within a species. Example: Dogs come from the the same species (Canis) as far as I'm...

Ok, since you didn't want to even engage what I posted I looked it up in the Strong's (which isn't scripture btw) and there are other things that word can mean (#5060) there's a little bit more in the book than online but there seems to be many instances of this word being used that aren't...

Your point @KeithB ? Are you implying that eating the forbidden fruit and Eve's "desire" towards it (disobeying God and yielding to the voice of another) was the first instance of spiritual adultery in the Bible? You brought up another instance of sexuality in the excerpt I quoted below so I'd...

Yes, unfortunately replying (while taking a bit more effort and clogging the thread) with "mostly agree" but I'm unsure on what you meant "here" is a substitute. You can take a users post and clip it together with your replies in between but it is quite a bit of effort. Or you could private...

Technological advancement. General awareness. Timing. I don't think basic layered security should bother anyone but I think plausibility is more important than possibility. You can end up tying your hands and be starving socially, emotionally, and physically if you focus on what is...

Once again, if you'd like to communicate privately...feel free to post here and we can probably work something out. Edit: Also, if I'm away for a while the notifications disappear so this (or messaging) is probably best.

If you don't mind laying out a little bit of the reason for your post I'd appreciate it. It "would" seem clear but I detect undertones of bitterness and a bit of flippancy over the first two pages...I can't read through any more because it isn't good for my walk personally. I'm not a...

Staying positive can definitely help. Give your anger to God, anger is a natural emotion. The bible only says "in your anger, do not sin" so that tells me that anger is a given but how we engage it is important. I totally get wanting to keep strong emotions private.

That is awesome! What's helped you so far?
