Why doesn't anybody ever post in the science section? How many discussions have you started in there?

I'm moving this thread to the Current Events and Politics forum.

Why do you think it important to make this statement and to relate it to race?

For the past four years we have been livestreaming our Sunday worship services on Facebook using a cell phone. I also make a copy of the video from Facebook and embed it onto our website. Most of the time, this works just fine but every once in a while I get an error message like the one shown...

Well, some spiders for sure. Thanks for the reminder....not! :) Snakes or heights don't bother me though except that I'm not as comfortable on high places like roofs these days because my legs aren't as trustworthy as they once were. That's partly due to my age, 65, as well as some nerve damage...

Maybe a Bible reading plan would be helpful rather that just a random approach. Following a plan can make it easier to stay motivated. Another option might be to follow a daily devotional or even include it in your daily prayer/study time. And finally, don't forget that God gave us two ears and...

I don't know that I have any fears to speak of. More concerns than fears. For what it's worth I have concerns with the direction this country and the world is moving politically, socially, and spiritually.

The church I attend is a small country church which shares a pastor as part of a two point parish with another church of the same size. Each week we alternate churches instead of having individual worship services. On any given Sunday we may have roughly 40-50 in attendance combined. Originally...

I have moved this discussion here where differences may be discussed openly. Carry on.

Let's stay focused on answering the OP's questions.

We urge you, brothers, admonish the idle, encourage the fainthearted, help the weak, be patient with them all. See that no one repays anyone evil for evil, but always seek to do good to one another and to everyone. Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this...

I believe our works is the expression of our faith and I believe that is what James talks about. Jesus spoke about false faith... "Hypocrites! Well did Isaiah prophesy about you, saying: ‘These people draw near to Me with their mouth, And honor Me with their lips, But their heart is far from...

Not necessarily for God knows what is in our hearts. We may make mistakes but God knows where our heart is and He knows that we are prone to do so. The Lord said to Samuel, “Do not look at his appearance or at his physical stature, because I have refused him. For the Lord does not see as man...

You don't say how old you are but I assume you are still a minor. For this reason, I would say that your concerns come from your lack of honoring your parents. They have your best intentions in mind for you. You may not agree with them at this time and assuming you know how to use the Airpods...

Now it is superfluous for me to write to you about the ministry for the saints, for I know your readiness, of which I boast about you to the people of Macedonia, saying that Achaia has been ready since last year. And your zeal has stirred up most of them. But I am sending the brothers so that...

I agree with most of what you say. How others feel or judge me has nothing to do with my beliefs. It is what God says that matters. Jesus says plenty about LGBTQ+ lifestyles. First, one must understand who Jesus is. Jesus was God in human form. “Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and...

Not necessarily. What is done with the wealth can be sinful or not. Do you think greed does not exist with the poor? I would beg to differ. This is my own personal experience from years ago, circa 1982-1985. I've been poor and I can tell you without hesitation that poor people concentrate on...

orthodoxcrusader1996 in other words, this argument would take away the free will and make us all moist robots rather than individuals that could love God. Arguments like this also are just another attempt to be our own god. It goes back to the question presented to Eve, "Did God really...
