Paul seems to allow the preaching of the Gospel even if it is preached with incorrect motives? Or, is this solely based on Paul's situation at the time he wrote the letter? Under what circumstances will this be acceptable? Does this also not create disunity in the Church as a whole if we are...

The question seems stupid. Off course we need to discuss Gods Word and how we can become closer to Christ through a better understanding of His Word. I have spent some time looking at the discussion and I am not seeing anyone change their point of view over a point someone has raised. We all...

I am not sure where to post this, I am just hoping someone might be able to give some advice from a Christian perspective as well as an operational perspective. I am on the board on a non-profit old age home in South Africa. The current chairperson is stepping down at the next AGM and a new...

I in a moment of pressure ( I was shy and ready to please anyone) gave my life to Christ at the age of 12 at a youth camp. I then at the age of 16 became a quiet rebel. I obeyed my parents but enjoyed the parties and drank etc. When I joined the army at the age of 18 and served in the South...

Yet I understand that James Cameron has attempted in the past in a documentary called "The Lost Tomb of Christ" to show his dislike to the Christian faith.

I have been asking myself why I use this forum! I thought I would ask the question to many. My reasons are that it has exposed me and continues to expose me to different thoughts and ideologies within the Christian realm. This has made me seek a clearer more defined belief structure based on the...

Reading Matthew 6 vs 14 and 15 I started wondering about forgiveness and how it affects our salvation. Forgiveness is a far bigger word than we give it credit. Let me quote the verse I will use 3 translations so that it is not lost in translation. From the mouth of our Lord and Saviour. "For if...

Are we being decieved by false doctrine? I believe we are, and we have been forwarned yet we fail to listen and act accordingly. Is there a new world religion appearing? Is a new world order being formed? Is our privacy being invaded? I feel we need to investigate this and give constructive...
