    If homosexuality is a sin, then why didn't Jesus say anything about it?

    The majority of your information is based on inconclusive information that cannot be refuted because of a lack of knowledge. In other words, a person states that they don't recall making the decision and comes to the conclusion that it therefore must have never happened. I am sure you can see...

    If homosexuality is a sin, then why didn't Jesus say anything about it?

    Am I married to my wife and having a child because I did not have a choice? Is it not my responsibility? This is the same kind of irresponsible destructive reasoning used by murderers on death row, pedophiles, drug addicts, and the list goes on. Everyone has a choice. You might feel like a...

    Is the Attraction Wrong or What we do with it?

    Furthermore, natural affection leads to marriage in its pure form. The marriage license was not invented until 1215. The U.S. was liberated from the marriage license when it gained its independence. However, unfortunately the marriage license was reintroduced in 1917 to prevent interracial...

    Is the Attraction Wrong or What we do with it?

    Scripture simply states what "natural affection" is. Natural affection is the result of the way man and woman were created. It is caused by the fact that woman was taken from the man. It is an attraction to one another as a result. Genesis 2:23-24 Any attraction outside of this is not natural...

    What is the strong delusion that would cause people to believe a lie?

    This topic has been on the mind and heart of my wife and I lately. It is because we have been prompted to pray about this more and more. Not just for ourselves, but others. It is simply our desire to not be deceived and we know that only God can prevent this. It is our desire that no one would...

    Where is the word of God?

    I consider myself to be no more fortunate than anyone else. As a matter of fact, there have been many times I have felt much less fortunate than others. For a long time I was upset that I did not have some of the opportunities that others had when it came to growing up under teachings of...

    Show me that in the scriptures?

    I am posting this as something for others to study and to consider. The reason is, that as I have read throughout the forums, it has come to my attention that many people are defining words differently. Most of the time, the result is a form of debate that arises as if the people are speaking...

    What would you do if God told you...

    How would you react if God told you to marry a prostitute, like with Hosea, or a drug addict, or alcoholic or any other thing that might be on your list of "Disqualifying Traits"? Would you have ears to hear like Hosea did and be obedient? Or would you lean to your own understanding and be dull...

    Are there invisible (or visible) walls in your life?

    So I was inspired to write this by something that seems to reoccur when I meet some people. It is also something I know that I have personally struggled with. It is something that I want others to seriously consider and pray about. Do you have walls that you put up that obstruct you from...

    Is your "belief" actually unbelief?

    It has astounded me as to the amount of doubt and unbelief I have witnessed. It is very troubling at times and I have often thought as Jesus said, "Oh... you evil and perverse generation. How much long must I endure you?" I bring up this topic not to condemn anyone, but to exercise righteous...

    Was Jeremiah Called to Be Single?

    I ALWAYS thought this was the case. However, before you answer this question, take a REALLY good look at Jeremiah 16:1-4.

    What is considered appropriate or inappropriate when it comes to other singles?

    I am just kind of wondering what others find as acceptable or unacceptable when it comes to the opposite sex. Specifically singles and I don't mean anything that would be obviously offensive. What are the boundaries that take one from acceptable to unacceptable, appropriate to inappropriate...

    News from Around the World

    Just a thought I had. It would be interesting to see threads with the titles of other countries from around the world. "India" "Uganda" "Italy" etc... There are a lot of things going on in other parts of the world that we don't to hear about. I have been shocked to hear news of persecution in...

    SHALL WEAR OUT THE SAINTS OF THE MOST HIGH

    Yes. Mecca. Isis is not a city but she does sit in Mecca. The Kaaba was said to be the house of Allat (femaie version of Allah) before Islam. Islam has adopted Allat as Allah. Allat was the name of Isis by the Arabians. Isis also had these names... "the mother of all gods [abominations]", the...

    The "Image" of the Beast

    And please do not assert that it was not mentioned in the bible. It was a form of Baal worship and the name Allah can be traced back to 1,400 BC. Baal and Islam have the same symbol.

    Quaran

    He is not mentioned by name. He was not born until 570 a.d. However, the scriptures do warn of rising false christs and prophets. Some of these are shown in great detail. For example, one was said to bring back the worship of the very first empire (Egypt). That worship was Isis which was...

    Quaran

    That is exactly what happened. As a matter of fact, the Quran took ideas from many different religions. Originally (about 1,400 BC), Allah had brothers but the Quran states that Allah has no associates and then begins to describe him as a monotheistic god like the God of the Jews and Christians...

    The "Image" of the Beast

    For years I have considered what the scriptures say about this. Many of us have because the scriptures explicitly say not to receive the mark of the beast. For the longest time, I thought that the "image" of the beast and the "mark" were the same. However, today I noted that the scriptures do...

    Confirmation that the Roman Empire is not the 8th King of Revelation 17

    For a number of years now, I have considered it possible that the 8th king was a revived Roman Empire. I have heard a lot of people coming to that conclusion. While I have considered it, I kept coming back to Islam. However, in effort to remain humble I have continued to consider it. Until...
