Gen 12:1 Now the LORD had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto a land that I will shew thee:.... Gen 12:5 And Abram took Sarai his wife, and Lot his brother's son, Gen 13:5 And Lot also, which went with Abram, had flocks, and...

2Cr 5:21 For he hath made him [to be] sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him. When the believer becomes a Christian, filled with the Spirit, It is He who does the works through us. We are simply His vessel. In the passage about the judgements of...

Hey Typo, I am a Bible-believing, Spirit-filled child of God, bought with the blood of Jesus Christ. He thought I was worth dying for. Out of one side of your mouth you shout "OBEY" out of the other you call my obedience steenking works"? Is this the work that you are offering up to my Lord...

The devil and his puppets have been trying so very long and so very hard to take me down, even though they have seen God pick me up time after time, use me against them time after time. My faith and trust is in God. He has given us instructions on how to live a Christian life, and how to...

Beauful post DanR :wink:

vic, vic, vic.... humble people can not 'work' their way into the Kingdom! :o Oh, wait. That was your point, wasn't it? :-D Those who believe that salvation is based on works, have never been able to explain to me which sin it is that is both too big to be covered by the blood of Jesus...

As I posted earler, my opinion, based on Scripture: I see nothing wrong with a Christian wearing a gold Cross. It makes no difference if a non Christian does. To that I can only add: It is wrong to worship your necklace. With that, I am out of this thread. Blessings.

This started going through my mind after my last post: So I'll cherish the old rugged cross, till my trophies at last I lay down; I will cling to the old rugged cross, and exchange it some day for a crown. Then I thought of one of my favorite hymns: I WILL GLORY IN THE CROSS I boast not of...

Ditto. Just a reminder that non Christians can not be expected to behave like Christians. Even if it were possible to clean em up and make em follow the rules, they would still be non Christians. I don't quite follow you here. Your thread is questioning the symbol of Christianity and what is or...

Another thing that Adrian Rodgers used to say: "You would never scold a blind person for not being able to see. So don't ever scold a non-Christian for not acting like a Christian."

If only they would hang something around their neck that said "Don't believe me!" A nonbeliever with a gold cross hanging around their neck, is still a nonbeliever. I remember hearing of a boy in school who heard of the above listed commandments. He decided that doing any form of artwork was...

There is also a world of difference between having a symbol and worshiping one.

My advice: Answer not a fool according to his folly. Although I have fallen into this trap myself before, Perhaps you can learn from my mistakes. If someone can not get past Genesis 1:1, there is no point in discussing prophesy with them. Perhaps God can use you to turn a conversation...

Can you tell us something about the research that you did? What were your resources? Were they faith based scholars, secular humanist or perhaps atheist? It is usually helpful to include Scripture references with your questions. Can you tell us what passage you are refering to? We also tend to...

Thank you Father for the boldness and courage of this brother in Christ. I ask that you bring a strong conviction on those who walked out on him, and let it be that during the next elections, they have either repented and added their 'amen' to this prayer, or that they have been replaced with...

Maybe he was the best person for the job. Often the less qualified a person is, the more people realize that God is in it. 1Cr 1:29 That no flesh should glory in his presence. Or maybe he was the only one that was not already on assignment at the time. Just a bit of a glimpse of a previous...

There was a disastrous seventy vehicle crash on Interstate 4 in central Florida just before 5;00 a.m. this morning. Thick smoke combined with dense fog creating what was described as a sudden wall. There are four confirmed deaths. Thirty-eight people have been taken to hospitals and trauma...

Get in line. It's a long one. .. It has always been thus.

I tend to believe that people who followed him around (and watched Him turn water to wine, walk on water, feed the multitudes with a few loaves and fish, make the lame walk, the blind see, and the deaf hear, and raise the dead) more than likely were writing things down at the time.
