opinions please :) what do u guys think of a committed christian occasionally having ONE beer, which produces @ most a general feeling of relaxation, & as a beer connaisseur (sp?), enjoying the flavors & "notes" of it? does this fall under let no man judge u in food or drink so long as u do not...

Ok, so I'm at the bookstore tonight and I pick up the book "I Don't Have Enough Faith To Be An Atheist." I randomly open it to the chapter that deals with irreducible complexity. I'm familiar with irreducible complexity so it was not terribly enlightening but it did occur to me that I've never...

I know the timing of the rapture has been debated on this forum ad nauseum. But I'd really like to post these verses and ask how we can possibly debate them. I'd love to hear verses on all sides of this issue as I would love to believe in a pre-trib rapture but have not found enough evidence in...

I don't necessarily agree with the presumptious and somewhat arrogant tone of this excerpt from the book "The Collapse of Evolution," but the overall logic is pretty sound, although I think they could have elaborated a little more. But anyway... The bombardier beetle is a small insect that is...

If you are a worshipper and are not listening to Hillsong United yet, it's a MUST! I'm posting lyrics here to one of my favorite songs. It is BEAUTIFUL but must be heard to be truly appreciated (especially when Darlene Cshech is singing it!!) Father of life draw me closer Lord, my heart is set...

Hi. Can everyone please pray for me and for the family of a dear sister in Christ who died yesterday? She was like a mother to me. She held me, she loved me, she encouraged me and she told me i could make it when i didn't think i could. She always told me who I was in Christ and how much God...

Ok, so in Acts 17 Paul describes God as "in whom we live, move and have our being." Now he was not talking to believers. How do we all live, move and have our being in Him? Is He "IN" His creation as well as separate from it? What do you think?

Again, standard disclaimer, those of you who spend a lot of time in Apologetics and Theology already know this, so feel free to ignore me!!! One day several weeks ago I was looking on the local SPCA website for a companion for my chihuahua. Well I saw this little 14 year old pomeranian on...

Everyone that frequents the Apologetics and Theology board already know this so don't waste your time reading it, lol :yes On Monday (3/8) I took my car to the body shop to get repaired. My insurance company gave me an Enterprise Rental Car. I selected to get the collision waiver from...

LOL, I brought this scripture up on another thread but I would like someone to tell me that it is not saying what it is saying: 2 THESS 1:5-8 NKJV: 5 which is manifest evidence of the righteous judgment of God, that you may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which you also suffer...

A lot of you have seen this in another thread, but I wanted to make it its own topic: in Isaiah 53, where it says Jesus bore our "griefs", look at the Strong's definition of griefs: The KJV Old Testament Hebrew Lexicon Strong's Number: 02483 Original Word Word Origin ylx from (02470)...

I'm sure quite a lot of you know about these but for those who don't, I thought I would share. biblestudytools.com - you can search almost every translation known to man. It has KJV with Strong's so you can click on a word and get the Strong's definition & how the word was translated diferently...

The bible clearly teaches that Jesus' kingdom is an eternal kingdom, and that He will rule and reign forever. But these verses seem to contradict that: 1 COR 15:22-28 22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive. 23But every man in his own order: Christ the...

Do you believe in it? How would you define it? Do you engage in it? If so, in what way? If not, why? Ref: Eph 6:10-17; 2 Cor 10:4-5 I'm signing off now. But I hope to have a lively discussion about this. I'm not saying you guys on here, but I think a lot of Christians ignore spiritual...

Hi, I am wondering if any one can point me toward some good praise and worship artists. The only ones I can think of off hand are Hillsong/Darlene Cszaech, Matt Redmond, Chris Tomlin, Phillips, Craig and Dean, MercyMe. I may know of some others that I can't think of right now. I'm not really...

Now I am sure some of you super-sanctified saints are going to judge me for this, but that's ok, I believe in transparency. So I am going to tell you a story about a recent material blessing: So here's the story. On Monday (3/8) I took my car to the body shop to get repaired. My insurance...

Please pray for Glenn Beck. I know many of you may not like him, but he has been deceived by the mormon religion. Watch this short video, you can see how open and vulnerable and sensitve he is, a side of him I have never seen before. He even has to hold back tears when speaking of God's...

I know that almost all denominations consider the baptism of the Holy Spirit and speaking in tongues as being of the devil. That it was for the NT church only. But I would like to share my testimony. Like every newborn believer, I fell in love with Jesus. I went to church, I prayed, I read...

Many of my christian friends believe that animals do not have souls. However, Rev 16:3 states "And the second angel poured out his vial upon the sea; and it became as the blood of a dead man: and every living soul died in the sea." The word used here for the soul is the same word used...

I am sure this has been discussed in the past, although I don't see any recent posts for it. This topic is really bugging me. I would like to believe in eternal security, but I cannot get past this passage: "For if, after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of...
