    Preferred Bible that you use?

    HAHA! How is it I hear so much in such a short statement?! No wasting of words here. HAHAHA! Right-on. Be blessed, Stay blessed, and be Bold!

    1 Corinthians 14:18

    If so, then what did Paul mean in vs. 14, 15. If "tongues" are known languages, what did Paul mean when he said, "For if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prays, but my understanding is unfruitful." (v.14) And if tongues are a known language, what could he mean when he says, "I will pray with...

    1 Corinthians 14:18

    You provoke me to get involved my comrade! (BTW, the secret juice at last night's meeting in the church basement was awesome. Everyone was "tongue" talking after a few sips! HAHA) As for the text, I read Paul to be instructing the church on how to be most effective in the use of tongues...

    Are mistakes reversible?

    Maybe! But that would require personal accountability. (overheard on a rather short roadtrip) "Are we there yet?!" Be blessed, Stay blessed, and be Bold!

    Are mistakes reversible?

    Maybe therein lies a problem. Whether mistakes are reversible or not, our forcus should rather be, "Because I now know . . ." We cannot changed what we did, But we can let Him change the person who did it. Whether the minute hand can regress or not, that is above the pay grade I choose...

    Westboro announces protest of Steve Jobs’ funeral–with an iPhone

    I watched the intro part one. Whatever it is, it's deep seeded for sure and in need of (Christ's) healing/resolution. Yet it challenges me to not aim "to be just like Christ" (seriously, me? "like" Him who has no comparisons?), but rather surrender that He might live His life (and message)...

    Westboro announces protest of Steve Jobs’ funeral–with an iPhone

    I know what they do, but what puzzles me is "why" they do it. I mean aside from the reasons they state and those I attribute (negatively? with reason?) to them. There has to be some deep seeded hurt/pain in people to think nothing of afflicting hurt/pain on others; especially during a...

    Is atheism a religion?

    Thank you for being clear in your identification and beliefs. Whether I agree or not with your position and/or points, it (making it personal) produces a good foundation for dialog. Again, thank you. If ability exists, I can now follow your posts in a light you have provided me with...

    Cigarette Smoking Christians

    Not only is it a relationship, but a personal one at that! To God (alone) be the glory. Be blessed, Stay blessed, and be Bold!

    Yours

    Oftentimes I prayed, “Lord, I want to be like You.” Who He is, His love, His mercy, His grace . . . I no longer will. For I have concluded that striving to be like Jesus, has at times drawn me away from Him. Asking to be like Christ has been an unanswered prayer for me. An invalid request...

    Need Advice from Dads

    For what it's worth, I'll chime in (late) and expoound on Sparrowhawk's suggestion. First, there appears to be two issues at hand. One, a teenage male discovering (and enjoying?) his body parts as he grows into a young man. Body parts that will no doubt serve a purpose later in his life...

    Polygyny and the Bible

    Please enlighten me on your definition of a "real" Christian man, especially as it pertains to marriage and being a husband having a wife. Be blessed, Stay blessed, and be Bold!

    Polygyny and the Bible

    Sorry I missed this one earlier. YES! A man, even a spiritual man can love more than one woman (I do). BUT! There is a huge difference between a woman and a woman who is the wife! Be blessed, Stay blessed, and be Bold!

    Polygyny and the Bible

    Does this "knowing" include she could (by God's design) be replaced and/or share you with another woman (wife) at anytime? Weak men (in your opinion) may tolerate disrespect, but strong men (by the grace of God) stand in the gap for their families in prayer; and that especially so for their...

    Polygyny and the Bible

    So you've eliminated that. What then has it to do with? That God would sanction a Christian man to have mulitple wives? Against your desire? Or in response to? Be blessed, Stay blessed, and be Bold!

    Polygyny and the Bible

    Is He "allowing" it for you? Be blessed, Stay blessed, and be Bold!

    Perhaps you missed my post #195. Be blessed, Stay blessed, and be Bold!

    Polygyny and the Bible

    It is good to allow a Christian man to have multiple wives? That he not particpate in sins like affairs, having mistresses, adultery, prostitution? Could this be the matter of the heart? Be blessed, Stay blessed, and be Bold!

    Polygyny and the Bible

    Are you implying one or the other? Be blessed, Stay blessed, and be Bold!
