Greetings, Those in my family group were raised to use prayer formulas. `For your penance say three 'Hail Mary's, three 'Our Fathers' and one 'Confiteor Deo'." The process of memorizing our prayers encouraged thinking on spiritual things. Basically, we grew while familiarizing ourselves with...

No argument here. This one sometimes called Sparkey is in training and has asked to be judged regarding 'complaining' and/or 'grumbling', but rather let all things give glory to God. If, for any, it ever comes down to a choice to either be judged by man or to find oneself as having fallen into...

Thanks for the auto-correct. Yes, there is a difference between, "until the end of the world," and, "will always be,." Heck-fire man, we don't even kno what we shall be, only that we are told that we shall be like The Christ. Anybody care to guess about Time or even if it will continue? Who...

The necessity of water baptism for believers has been part of the church of Christ since Acts 2 until today and always will be... Sweeping overstatement much, do we? Please pardon my interjection, brothers. Are we certain about the "... always will be," part? I mean, c'mon. It has not even...

This is a love story, yes. B/w Father and Son We are the reward that was set before The Christ, even as we are invited, we are joined into the very purpose of the ONE WITH NO SHADOW OF TURNING. Somewhere, perhaps metaphorically from the back of the hu# a small voice is heard, "now we're...
