    **The Word of Faith Movement.........Twisted scripture

    My faith is in God, His promises, and the validity of His word to bring about what it says. I can't make myself have a good day, nor a great job! The thing is I can pray about my day and pray about my job and know that God is working in those situations to aid me in my mental attitude toward...

    **The Word of Faith Movement.........Twisted scripture

    I just have trouble with getting information from the internet or the media for that matter - they really aren't known for their honesty - garbage yes - honesty - no!

    How do adult children honor their parents?

    The question of the thread is "How do adult children honor their parents?" To honor someone is to hold in high respect; to esteem- so that is how I answered. But to the question "How do adult children obey their parents?" Since they are adults they probably would obey me out of the honor or...

    How do adult children honor their parents?

    I think and hope that my adult children honor me by taking care of me when I need them to as I did for them before they left home and had families of their own. You know, feed me, change my diapers, etc. if need be in my old age.

    **The Word of Faith Movement.........Twisted scripture

    I really don't understand why some preachers are called "WOF preachers." Aren't we to have faith in Gods word? Aren't we to believe in the promises of God? I listened to one of her CD's this morning and in taking notes; she went to scripture 10 times (if not more if I missed some!) Yes...

    Freewill or robotic puppetry ?

    We have been given freewill. Freewill is a choice to believe God or reject God. In the OT they had freewill to serve God or reject God and serve other gods - why would it be any different in the NT?

    Thank you for posting that. I am a partner with Joyce Meyer so I receive a balance sheet of the financial records.

    Preachers Asking For Money

    Did I say that God wanted us to be millionaires? I guess "prosper" to you means millionaire?

    Preachers Asking For Money

    I like Joyce Meyer a lot too. Her ministry does seem to be accountable for themselves because they do issue a yearly accounting of the ministries finances. I like that they do that. I think that any church or ministry that we choose to give to should be feeding us spiritually and helping us...

    How was the Thief on the Cross Saved?

    Hello - My response about the fruit of the Spirit was in response to the following post which was in reply to mine - It sure seems like it was to me but if I am mistaken, I apologize.

    How was the Thief on the Cross Saved?

    The fruits of the Spirit do not save us. They are the result of our spiritual growth. Faith in the Lord Jesus Christ is what saves us.

    How was the Thief on the Cross Saved?

    The one thief condemned - And one of the malefactors which were hanged railed on him, saying, If thou be Christ, save thyself and us. But the other answering rebuked him, saying, Dost not thou fear God, seeing thou art in the same condemnation? And we indeed justly; for we receive the due...

    The Cops Setting You Up

    Christian men can do some things to help clean up society or as you say keep evil down and no, we cannot eradicate crime. As long as Satan is the "god of this world" then we will have evil but that doesn't mean that we, as Christians, should not do anything to help society.

    The Cops Setting You Up

    So how would you go about trying to clean up prostitution? As I said there are probably other underlying issues being dealt with. You can "entrap" someone all you want but until money actually changes hands between the john and the prostitute; no crime has been committed. The john is still...

    Can you be X and christian.

    How is getting cancer even remotely close to having homosexual inclinations or being a "practicing homosexual"? I would agree that homosexual tendencies (if restrained from) are quite different from an actual practicing homosexual.

    The Cops Setting You Up

    So what you are saying is that prostitution is ok? I know that it is the oldest profession in the world but that doesn't make it right. Usually when stings are set up it is to get to "bigger fish". Maybe the pimp that is beating the girls, taking their income, getting them hooked on drugs. ...

    Freewill religion is the Man of Sin !

    It seems that a lot of Christians do not realize what Christ went through right before he knew the time was coming for him to sacrifice his life for us. In reading the records in Matthew, Mark, and Luke, my heart is enlarged with love for him and what he went through for us. All the emotions he...
