    Arguments

    The basic premise of arguments mentioned in my last post was summarized in two goals: - love for sharing good knowledge with others - coming to a common understanding with others Starting from that premise, I always evaluate at the back of my mind how an argument is going to see if it is moving...

    on computers

    Ahhhhh, finally a thread that is exclusively about me!!! :D I've been pretty much living and breathing computers my entire life since I was about 7 (that was when I learned my first computer programming language). I've studied Computer Science for my college undergrad degree and got a Master...

    Arguments

    Indeed, people forget that as Christians, we love God and everyone first as per Christ's commandments, and argue second only in light of our love for sharing good knowledge or coming to a common understanding with others. Anything else is not Christian and comes from outside of Christianity...

    What do you think of Martial Arts?

    It's not prejudice. I know many of their martial arts are based on Buddhism. I would advise against learning for sure. They are tainted with godless ideas that might influence one unconsciously. Besides, there are plenty of other martial arts out here, whether mixed martial arts, Brazilian...

    What do you think of Martial Arts?

    Martial Arts are fine and I would think encouraged for Christians to be ready to take on any evil. I know some myself, thanks be to God.

    Just moved from South Africa to start a new life in the Palm Springs, CA area! (how often do you get guys like that on this forum?)

    You very obviously don't sound Christian at all from the way you speak at a 100mph. All Christians are meek & mild-mannered and have very good self-discipline & control. They also don't spill their dirty laundry to the public since they rely on the Lord who makes them content no matter what...

    Good 90's songs.

    Sorry, I don’t watch the Simpsons or any cartoons in general, whether made for adults or not. Not a fan of funny business either.

    Good 90's songs.

    Oh boy, I’d never seen the video of this song before I posted it. I just watched it for the first time. Sadly, it’s got some bad stuff that is against faith in God. I sincerely apologize for posting it. May God shield everyone from the evil in it. Godspeed.

    WHY DID GOD?

    By the way, allegorical doesn’t mean there won’t be literal manifestation of similar events to Revelation. But, the point is to be obedient to God, and as long as you are, you will be safe regardless.

    WHY DID GOD?

    I was talking about Revelation. Hell is real. I would have assumed that was obvious from affirming the need for obedience to God. Godspeed.

    WHY DID GOD?

    That was just an allegorical vision. Its purpose was to scare people into obedience to God by reminding them of how bad evil can get when people don’t have strong faith in the Lord and are thus easily swayed by the likes of the antichrist. If you’re already obedient, you have nothing to worry...

    Post funny pictures relating to people/stories in the Bible.

    It doesn't feel appropriate to share anything funny here as that would diminish the seriousness and importance of God's message in the Bible.

    We are called to obedience, but works won’t save. Please explain.

    Works do save. Works keep you on the right path of Jesus Christ. Works prevent you from falling into Satan's traps. Godspeed.
