    Do you support OSAS(once saved always saved)?

    I read God's Word as OSAS. I think that Ro 8 last half pretty well sums it up. The problem I see with teaching a Christian that they can or have lost their salvation is that they are teaching that Jesus' love/forgiveness is conditional which it can't be (for by grace through faith are we saved...

    What are you giving up?

    I don't give anything up for a temporary ceremony but I do for God. My vehicles are an old 1990 Rusty but trusty Ford Taurus and and 1990 rusty but trusty Ford F-250. My wife and I live in a foreclosed HUD home which needs a lot of work. My and her wardrobes still have 1970 era clothes we seldom...

    secrecy - one dangerous virus!

    To be honest I don't know. Maybe it was him, her. I never heard of her till you mentioned her and then I searched her bio out of curiosity. I am not one to follow the personal lives of musicians or the Hollywood group or politicians as most of the time if not all what you see and hear is them...

    secrecy - one dangerous virus!

    Edward, believe me, 11 mos doesn't mean that he knew who or what he married at all. They were still newly weds still discovering each other. There is SO much that people destructively hide from the other before marriage and into marriage which should have NEVER been hid; even more so in...

    secrecy - one dangerous virus!

    I am sorry for all of the pop up picture links I only intended there to be printed links. These pix kidda jumble things up. I am sorry. And by the way, if you have the time and desire, there is one link there which did NOT blow up into pix: the best of them all, I think for working together, the...

    secrecy - one dangerous virus!

    Classik, The kind of love you are referring to is filao love which most people think is the "good" kind of love. For non-Christians it is the highest type of love which they can maintain through the years although at times they might display the higher, agape, there is usually a string attached...

    secrecy - one dangerous virus!

    @Caludya, I stand corrected on something I said in the earlier metaphor. I believe that there are only two types of love at play in that scenario; eros and agape. Eros being where erotic comes from and agape, the Christ-like love which loves %100 in spite of it not being deserved which is...

    secrecy - one dangerous virus!

    Claudya, After thinking about my earlier metaphor I realized that I stand corrected. First of all I forgot to spell check and most importantly, of the three types of love, there are only two at play in the metaphor: eros and agape. I think one can eros love alone as in infatuation or the basic...

    secrecy - one dangerous virus!

    Claudya, think of erotic love (any one of the three types, really) as a wondrously beautiful piece by Handel, Bach, Mozart, or Saint Saens or if you'd rather some other great musicians. It is one piece or one song but it is comprised of a variety of instrumentalists and or vocalists. What makes...

    The Scourging Block Dilemma

    There was a land in which the institution of family was greatly valued and one of the primary rules was to love your parents with all of your heart. It was a rule which all had to obey. One day during a famine in the land it was discovered that there was a thief stealing from the royal kitchen...

    [__ Prayer __] Finches

    Be careful water. That is how we lost our pet parakeet when I was a child. Somebody opened the front door from the outside at the wrong time. We thought he was so happy living with us that we gave him the name of Happy, too. It could have been just curiosity but he never returned. Fortunately...

    [__ Prayer __] Finches

    We have a bunch of Goldfinches who reside in our Blue Spruce trees out front and are regularly feeding at the tube, suet, and feeder out back just 20 ft or so from the kitchen window. We also have an array of other birds including Cardinals, Doves, Blue Jays, Titmice, some type of Warbler...

    Who do you think has control of our weather?

    TCR, God DID allow satan to torment Job. It is clearly evident. I am sorry that you have to make it sound so complicated and confused. In time, I believe you will come to see this as you open to the simple Truth.

    Who do you think has control of our weather?

    God allowed satan, the personification of evil and his ONLY choice of free will is doing evil, to torment righteous Job. I just can't see your reasoning. God knew satan was going to do evil to Job when He handed Job over to him that is why God told him, "but on the man himself, do not lay a finger."

    Who do you think has control of our weather?

    Yes, Mother Nature is a title which falls right in line with witchcraft and sorcery. Concerning the weather: I have wondered how this description of satan in Ephes 2:2 "the ruler of the kingdom of the air,..." plays into the weather as weather is mainly caused by the movements of air-hot or...

    Who do you think has control of our weather?

    Jethro Bodine You can include me with them. Some of the perscribed drugs I regularly take or the combination thereof produces quite a bit of methane. By the way I glow in the dark, too; maybe it is because I love to drink milk and fat free (skim) at that. I remember reading on a thread here a...
