Hello again Legion, the following link explains a lot (though there are also sub-cultures within all three of the Anabaptist groups, if memory serves). ~https://www.amish365.com/the-differences-between-amish-and-mennonites/#the-main-differences-similarities-with-chart I don't believe that the...

Hello @legion, one of the principal ways that the Amish differ from other Christians/Christian churches is in the way that they carry out the Great Commission. They are isolationists, so the idea of going into all the world to share/proclaim the Gospel/make disciples, whether locally, nationally...

Hello SomeDisciple, there are those who also claim that the Ark is in Ethiopia today, but Josephus told us that he witnessed its return (along with the heavenly host) to Heaven, in AD 70. However, the Bible seems to tell us that it was probably destroyed long ago (see 2 Kings 25:9). If it (the...

Hello Michaelarc, yes, there have been (beginning with the Jewish elders' coverup story, which they created immediately after their discovery of His empty tomb .. Matthew 28:11-15) and will continue to be conspiracy theories concerning His Resurrection (or more accurately, the lack thereof)...

Isaiah 7 14 The Lord Himself shall give you a sign: Behold, a virgin shall conceive and bear a Son, and shall call His name Immanuel. Isaiah 9 6 For unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given; and the government shall be upon His shoulder. And His name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor...

Hello @God-fearing, here are a few verses/passages that came to mind. Psalm 22 16 Dogs have surrounded me; A band of evildoers has encompassed me; They pierced my hands and my feet. 17 I can count all my bones. They look, they stare at me; 18 They divide my...

Hello again Lael, have you considered joining a missions organization (like The Navigators, Wycliffe, Cru, etc...........), or perhaps the organization that your parents were part of? I do know of missionaries who have gone it alone, but I think that's pretty unusual (isn't it?). In fact...

Hello @LaelNaomi, welcome to CChat! I'm glad that you found us and joined in the discussions with us :giggle: God bless you!! (1 Thessalonians 5:23-24) ~Deuteronomy Jeremiah 31:3/Deuteronomy 33:27 .

Hello @Lanolin, "Cheddar Cheese" and "American Cheese" are not the same, starting with the fact that one is natural and the other is processed. American Cheese is, no doubt, the most popular cheese in the States because (as you've already mentioned) it's used by fast-food restaurants like...

Hello again @SadieH, actually, if memory serves, this was actually humor from theologian/pastor Dr. R C Sproul (who is probably the one that I got it from originally). ~Deuteronomy

Cream Cheese/Cheesecake 😋

Whoops, "Icabod" is actually spelled, "Ichabod". Sorry about that, but our five-minute editing window was up before I discovered it (it is helpful to use the preview button and really take a second look before posting here, because 5 minutes is quick, just FYI).

Hello Sadie, welcome to CChat! I'm glad that you found us and joined in the discussions with us :) Along with the stories of Esther, Ruth and Jonah, I have a particular fondness for 1 Samuel 5-6, because in the midst of all the bad that was going on in that story, you really see clearly God's...

Hello HealthAndHappiness, actually, what I meant was that the login problems that I was having happened on my iPhone (only), not on any of my other devices. That's still true, and I still don't know why, but I found a work-around for my iPhone (as I know you know) by simply changing the browser...

Hello Rogerg, I have a few thoughts about this, but first, here's v16 with a bit of surrounding context. John 3 14 “As Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up; 15 so that ~whosoever believes~ will in Him have eternal...

Perhaps trying a different browser, be it Brave, Chrome or Edge, etc., would solve your problems, like changing my browser seems to have solved mine :)(y) Yes, you would have to be brave ;), but not excessively so, as you can always go back to using Firefox. If you do end up giving one or more...

I solved my security login problem (on my iPhone) by using a different browser (I now log onto CChat with Brave Browser instead of Edge .. on my iPhone). I haven't had login issues here on my other devices (as I mentioned earlier). I've considered moving to Brave Browser for everything since it...

Hello again Unknown, as a reminder, Palm Sunday (the day that Jesus rode the donkey colt that He borrowed to make His triumphal entry into Jerusalem) was the beginning of His Passion Week. So, any concerns that a local, disorganized Jewish rabble might have made to His ongoing ministry was over...

Or they could have known who Jesus was (after all, He instructed the disciples to say, "the LORD has need of it"). Actually, there were a number of folks who financially supported the Lord and His disciples during His ministry years (Mary Magdalane, Mary/Martha, Joanna and Susanna, for...

Hello Unknown, it seems to me that the lack of discussion concerning the donkey possibly belonging to the Lord Jesus Himself was probably due to the Bible telling us (plainly) that someone other than Jesus was the "owner" or "master" of the donkey (Luke 19:33). I don't believe that the Synoptics...
