God makes a wonderful promise (2 Peter 3:9) to those of us who will become His sons and daughters by adoption, that He will wait patiently for us to come to saving faith in His Son, so that none of us will ever be lost :) 2 Peter 3 9 The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some men...

Hello Gideon300, this is an interesting thread, so thank you from broaching it :)(y) Here are a few of the thoughts that I had about it as I read through it. That's an interesting way of defining certain aspects of those two terms, and I agree that what you say is true about them (however...

Hello Pasta, first off, welcome to CChat 👋:) I'm glad that you found us and joined in the discussions with us! My God continue to bless you as you seek to find Him and know Him .. e.g. John 3:16; John 17:3!! ~Deuteronomy p.s. - on your homepage here you mentioned being "unsure" about your...

The difference being that the Preview Button works (for some reason) on my iPhone! I think that I'd ask for some tech help if I had the same problem that you do (I believe that we have a board here for that very purpose) :)

Hello Churchgoer, if there are even a few things that happen "randomly" in this world, or elsewhere (IOW, things that are beyond God's purview and ordination), how much faith/trust can we really have in the wondrous promises that He's made to us (or in anything else that He's said for that...

When I hover my mouse over the Preview button, the word "Preview" appears. I don't know anything about Android devices, so perhaps you should bring this problem to the attention of the admins/owners here? (as I'm sure that they can help you figure out why the Preview button is grayed out and...

Here’s a screenshot from my iPhone. The Preview Button is to the far right, just below the … and the main magnifying glass (search) button.

Hello Bible_Locket, when you hit post or reply (to begin a new thread or a new post), look at the top and to the far right of where the post editing tools are (Bold, Italics, etc.) and look for a button that has a piece of paper with a magnifying glass on top of it. The preview button is...

I asked about the possibility of lengthening the editing time shortly after I joined here about 8 years ago. I was told (by several of the longtime members) that even though MANY members continue to request a longer editing time, year after year, it will never happen. IOW, the 5-minute editing...

Hello Biblestudent78, I don't believe that I personally reject anything that's taught in the Bible, OT/NT, and I don't know any true Christians who do. Perhaps you could give us some examples what you speak of in the OP, IOW, what you believe "institutional Christianity" teaches (on the one...

Also, here is a nice summary (of sorts) of The Hound of Heaven in song, by Michael Card. 3min 11sec

The Hound of Heaven by Francis Thompson A man spends his entire life evading God, seeking refuge in pleasures, nature, human connections, and his own imagination — yet God continues to pursue him, patiently and unyieldingly. I fled Him down the nights and down the days I fled Him down the...

Hello again @MRBHFJ, whoops, I forgot to add a link that I intended to add for you (at the bottom of my last post above). It's the unfiltered video of a group of GenZ's who The Chosen producers brought in to watch and react to Season 1 (they were trying to get to the bottom of why The Chosen has...

Hello @MRBHFJ, here are some additional verses & quotes to consider for your daughters. Ephesians 4 (NASB 77') 29 Let no unwholesome word proceed from your mouth, but only such a word as is good for edification according to the need of the moment, that it may give grace to those who hear. 1...

You might also point her towards some contemporary music that will (hopefully) help to lead her to the Lord (perhaps at moments when her life becomes more difficult to deal with than it normally is and she is looking for hope :)). Here's one that she may already know, in fact. Also, here is...

Hello @MRBHFJ, I don't know of a program or a site that would generate verses, passages or Christian quotes that would work well because they are made specifically for someone in your daughter's situation (especially since she is not a Christian yet). I'm sure that there are many here who could...

Greetings Jim (@endtimesbible), welcome to CChat 👋:) I'm glad that you found us and joined in the discussions with us! God bless you!! ~Deuteronomy 1 Thessalonians 5 23 May the God of peace Himself sanctify you entirely; and may your spirit and soul and body be preserved...

Hello @HatedForNoReason, if you, as a Christian, are looking for ways to love your ~unbelieving~ family members and neighbors, it seems to me that there is no better way to do so than by helping them find Him and come to saving faith in Him, like you did :) Of course, this, as I'm sure that...

The Scriptures that I intended to write down as examples (in my last post, just above) were, Romans 11:6, Ephesians 2:8-10 and Titus 3:5 (NOT John 7:24). Sorry about that :confused: Fortunately, I wrote the correct ones in when I went to Bible Gateway to link them to my post, so if you click...

And you as well, 2Christ :) I always prefer rational/reasonable discussions, even with those whose beliefs I may be opposed or even diametrically opposed to, because anything else always seems to end up being an unprofitable waste of time for both sides (well, except for those who seem like they...
