Every morning of every day, pray, "My Lord if I've sinned forgive me I pray." I don't recall the thief on the cross who was promised paradise by the Lord being baptized.

And if God knows all things far in advance he also knows who will sin (without repentance), before he creates them, correct? If true, then why does God create those who he knows in advance will not repent or believe in him? Is anybody really created with "free will?" God knows who will be...

The issue for many, (including me), is the "all knowing" God. An issue I personally have put behind me because it's above my understanding and it gets in the way of my faith. I have faith that my Lord will give me that understanding in a future time if I remain loyal to him, which I promise...

Now it,s name calling? Christian forum? I'll PRAY for you!

When I'm reading the old testament I'm seeing the lands being filled with idolatry. Most all humans worshiping graven idols as their gods. The God of the universe, (my God) had every reason to be angry, even more angry toward the tribes of Israel since, he God, had made a promise to the...

You're not alone, you could have written that about me. I fight the demons every day. I fight my guilt and cowardice and foolishness. I always have to remember what Christ said to Satan, "Get thee behind me Satan." I have to put my doubts, questions and guilt behind me and thank my Lord...

Can we think of anything worse than being convicted willingly of every human sin of every human on earth though he was perfectly innocent, as well as suffering through the physical crucifixion? What other human do you know would do that?

I feel your pain, I have some of your issues also. I can only tell you that I believe God has given me to understand that everything concerning a closer walk with Christ first requires perseverance, and perseverance brings faith and faith brings a closer walk with Christ. I think you, like me...

Have you discovered the vaccine yet for our sin disease? Please report!

What were you able to say in tongues? Did you understand what you were saying? Did anybody else understand what you said? What language were you speaking and to whom? Speaking in tongues I do believe is the God given miracle of preaching the actual gospel in a language you do not know and...

Now we all should know why the scriptures recommend we FEAR God! Good post Web! T do enjoy your post. You write very well totally understandable and very interesting. I'll still submit that life on earth is God's test for all of his creation to observe to prove to all intelligent life...

Who has the perfect authority to take away life, but the creator of all life? Either the great plan for life is set in stone, or it's all hogwash. Thus, it does seem we all do have a free choice. Is our choice inevitable? I don't know! "Get thee behind me Satan," I choose my Lord Jesus, The...

I just went back to your #10 post. Either I had forgotten the last part, or I failed to read it all. Thank you brother in Christ! You're exactly where I'm at. Does that mean we should not "seek" answers to our non-understandings and questions? I think not. I think we think as we do often...

If you're an Atheist, your OP has a natural fit. If you're a believer I understand even better your pain. So many questions, so many temptations. Giving up seems a viable option often. My option then is prayer, it helps!

It's easiest to be an agnostic, but the problem is there's little to no reward promised with it. It's like betting two bucks at the track on the even money favorite.

I have to say, I surely enjoy reading your post. Maybe because you display a very intelligent and well thought out position and give me purpose to join in with your very interesting perspective and opinions. Most of what I find here is self anointed Christians debating stuff I hardly...

Good point! I agree!

Actually I find several contradictions in biblical scripture but as I consider myself a Christian, I trust to faith that there are logical answers to all of them, thus until I find those answers through prayer, I simply have decided to put those issues behind me and keep the faith. This issue...

All Christians? I hope not. I'm not shooting Bible verses at you and I'm interested in your perspective and conversing with you. So far I've found you a very thoughtful and intelligent poster. It appears to me you've posted the unanswerable topic relative to scripture. After further...

You intelligently lay out the human dilemma, and possibly correctly. The kicker is for me at least is there are only two choices. You present very intelligently why scripture advises all to "fear God." It's relevant and very easy to believe that earthly humanity is simply a condemned rack of...
