    Wife's best friend

If she is resorting to prayer, it means she is really in a bad state :( "My beloved pet had a biopsy last Saturday and the pathology reported “probable carcinoma”. I lost my dad to cancer, I don’t want to lose my...

    Might have got myself into some trouble

    Hi friends When my unresolved childhood trauma from being bullied all the time collides with my sometimes poor impulse control caused by autism, I tend to have a really strong urge for revenge and vengeance when someone does something wrong by me. Obviously this character flaw is really bad. I...

    Please pray for my wife’s salvation

    Hello friends My wife grew up in the cult of Mormonism and by God’s grace she was courageous enough as a teenager to question the madness that she was being made to believe and left. She believed that by simply dropping the beliefs unique to Mormonism she would just default back to mainstream...

    Apeirophobia - Fear of eternity

    Hi friends I'm not sure if I still count as a young adult at 31 years old, but I certainly hope so! I've had a problem since I was about 10 or 11, which I've only recently discovered has a name - apeirophobia. I have an intense fear of the concept of eternity. It's so bad that I have to force...

    In John 3:13, Jesus says: No one has ascended into heaven except he who descended from heaven, the son of man. My question is: When, before saying this, had Jesus ascended into heaven? Thankyou

    Prayer/suggestions for my mother

    My mother has long term depression which I think is coming from a lack of purpose in her life. She is in her mid sixties and has a husband and four adult children who are mostly self-sufficient. I guess she would be called a housewife. But she hates being a housewife, and often says she wants...

    Why did Jesus rename Simon to Peter?

    I understand that Peter means "rock". But Peter was not a stable man most of the time. He was volatile and passionate. What makes him a "rock"? (no Catholic nonsense please).

    Luke 5:23 - What IS the answer to Jesus' question?

    "Which is easier: to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Get up and walk’? But so that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins...." Then he said to the paralytic, "Get up, take your mat and go home." I don't get it. Which IS easier to say? I've never...

    Charity / welfare

    I've got some problems with charities. Please don't be offended here; some of the content may be harsh. I just want to discuss this with someone. Historically, population has fluctuated with food supply. In times of plenty, we decided to breed because there was enough food to support...
