    Question about old threads?

    Sorry to post this here but I'm having trouble with posting elsewhere. Since this is the last month for CC do we need to download any comments/threads we've made so as not to lose them? And if so what's the best way to do this?

    Rev. 3:20 A verse about intimacy with Jesus, not "asking Jesus into your heart"

    Rev. 3:20 A verse about intimacy with Jesus, not "asking Jesus into your heart" Lukewarm Laodicean saints. Neither cold nor hot, unusable. God wanted them to be cold or hot (Laodicea was known for both its cold and hot water springs) therefore this does not refer to emotion, or...

    Advanced search options: finding my own posts

    There has to be a way I can search for all my own posts. I sometimes find that google does a better job if I give it my name and a key word than the advanced search options do. This shouldn't be. I find it confusing. What can I do better?

    Paul the lone apostle

    Many people have a lone wolf mindset when it comes to Christianity. They think they can be like Paul and be fine with just them and God. Certainly on an individual basis we each have a personal relationship to God, but this relationship is done in community. Not only did Paul write many of his...

    The absolute beauty of Salvation

    There are so many things that are misunderstood about salvation. Jesus said, "He who believes has eternal life." John 6:47 Who are we to believe? Jesus, the one sent from God the Father.

    The Simplicity of the Gospel

    Christian forums and chat

    This might not be the right place for this but I was wondering what others have experienced on different Christian forums. I know there's christianforum (seems almost too big but I'm amazed at how ecumenical it is, more like christendomforum) and pre-trib forums as well as numerous others I'm...

    Theology from a church history perspective

    What are the essentials? What are the non-essentials? What's interesting if you study church history is that certain doctrines were pounded out long ago, while others are still up for some debate. It can be very interesting to see just what has been done. Here's how I see it. What was first...
