Hello @John61, welcome to CChat! I'm glad that you found us and joined in the discussions with us :) And I hope that you are given asylum here is the US soon! God bless you!! ~Deuteronomy (David) 1 Thessalonians 5 23 May the God of peace Himself sanctify you entirely; and may...

Hi Mary, I believe that the ministry called "GotQuestions.org" is not only a great place to find quick answers to theological questions and various Chistian topics in general, but also to begin a more in-depth study of a topic or passage. Their articles are short, concise and well-written (most...

:) Just FYI, the top picture was taken during a game in Columbus, Ohio of the shortest player (Nathan Gerbe 5' 4") and the tallest player (Zdeno Chara 6'9") in the history of the NHL doing battle with each other during a game a few years back. Just FYI, it was Gerbe who ended up with the puck...

Whoops, make that the "visible (not "visivle") church" in the p.s. of my last post above. I didn't see it until I was already beyond our 5-minute editing time. BTW (@Texan18), this is something to be aware of, that our editing time is limited to 5 minutes and not a second longer here at CChat...

Hello @Texan18, welcome to CChat! FAR more importantly however, welcome to the family of God :giggle: I'm glad that you found us and joined in the discussions with us :) As for the more controversial parts of Christianity, like the systematic theologies Arminianism & Calvinism can often be, I...

Hello @PJH888, first off, welcome to CChat :) As far as the struggles that you're having with The Gospel of Matthew goes, it would be helpful if you could point us to a couple of the passages that have upset you/frightened you so that we can address them with you directly :)(y) In the...

Hello @GiselPsalm139, welcome to CChat! I'm glad that you found us, and that you joined in the discussions with us too :giggle: God bless you!! ~Deuteronomy (David) p.s. - what a WONDERFUL thing that your mother did for you, and what a WONDERFUL thing that you are continuing to do for your own...

Hello Laura (@lauratanner), welcome to CChat! I'm glad that you found us and joined in the discussions with us :) God bless you!! (1 Thessalonians 5:23-24) ~Deuteronomy (David) p.s. - I saw that your favorite verse is Romans 10:10, so I thought that you might also enjoy this similar one from...

Hi Jimbone, actually, I agree with you (I think that I must be looking at all of this from a different POV than you are). For instance, I don't believe that any of us, save our progenitors, have ever had a "neutral", free will. We choose what we want, according to that which we desire most...

Hello again @MerSee, I suppose (since we are already at it) that I should also ask you about life in Heaven and/or on the New Earth in the eternity to come. We will all be like God when we are there in the sense that we will never sin, or even have the desire to sin, and if so, how can that be...

I agree with you about that, but what of the elect then (in regard to their "free-will") :unsure: Do you believe that God perhaps restricts it/their freedom to choose in some manner, perhaps even going so far as to remove the ability (to one degree or another) of the elect to choose freely...

Hello again MerSee, no, not exactly. My point (concerning my understanding of free will) was that "free will" is something that a person (ANY person) possesses whenever they are able to choose what they desire or want the most. So, if a person (who knows the truth about who Jesus really is)...

Hello MerSee, I suppose the first thing that needs to be considered is what the definition of "free will" is (so that we can all be on the same page). It seems to me that our wills should be considered free whenever we are able to choose what we want most at a given moment in time. So, unless...

Praying..... Please keep us updated (whenever you can).

Hello @fizzyjoe, I typically check to see what GotQuestions.org has to say when I'm researching something or beginning to study a new topic. Here's some of what they have to say about this topic. Q. What is the Sabbath Day? A. At first glance, the question “What is the Sabbath day?” seems...

Hello again TheLearner, the Lord Jesus, because He is God, has always had a Divine nature, and He always will, but He took on a second nature, a human nature, at His Incarnation (and He is now BOTH fully God AND fully man, such that He now has a dual nature that was, is and will continue to be...
