    Poll: Is ear piercing really too 'liberal'?

    Re: Okay so best way to pierce ears? I knew a doctor that would pierce his patients ears for free. The reason was that he had to treat so many infections with people that had their ears pierced under unsanitary conditions. Actually he was a pediatrician so the patients were often pretty young...

    Is GENESIS 1 Incomplete?

    We read "1:1 In the beginning God created * the heaven and the earth." So clearly Genesis 1 talks about the creation of Heaven and Earth. Verse 8 qualifies "1:8 And God called the firmament Heaven." If this is the case then Genesis Ch 1 talks about God's creation of the Earth and the...

    [_ Old Earth _] In The Beginning

    The point is that there is a lot that can go into the study of just one word in the Bible. In this case we are talking about the word: Beginning.

    [_ Old Earth _] In The Beginning

    1:1 In the beginning God created * the heaven and the earth. This is the beginning of the Bible. The words: "In the" are not in the original Hebrew language. They are added in the English translation. So the Bible begins with the word Beginning. Beginning often means first fruit. God does...

    Hating the world

    Sounds like Mick Jagger when almost 50 years ago he would sing: "I can't get no satisfaction". Even though he tried and tried and he tried. We are told that: "creation itself also will be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God." Perhaps only...

    How long is forever?

    Forever means through all the ages. For example, we are currenly in the Church age. They say this will last for two days or two thousand years. Then we will have the 1,000 year reign of Christ. At this point there will be a resurrection of the unjust, unsaved and unregenerate. They will be...

    does it matter what we wear to church?

    I have been told we need to wear: the garment of humility; the robe of righteousness; and the garment of praise. In that order. I like to take into consideration unsaved and unregenerate people that maybe new to the service. We should dress our best, but perhaps not over due it so as to make a...

    Why we chose God

    The Bible is far from outdated. In fact science has a long way to go to catch up with the Bible. Jesus does warn us about the traditions of man and some of our traditions are outdated. Some of mans traditional understanding of the Bible is outdated.

    Heaven helps those who help themselves

    It is important to remember that we have a Covenant relationship with God. So we know if we do our part then we can know for sure God will do His part of the Covenant. Most all the promises of God are conditional. So we look to see what our part is. Even though it is "God which worketh in you...

    Help me little, please :)

    I do not think so. If we were 100% sure then God would deliver us from it. The problem is when we are double minded.

    Which is the right match???

    C is the only one that matches the salute. You do not smile and you do not tilt your head when you salute.

    Restitution: What the Bible Teaches.

    We just need to do good and do all we can to help people in general. That way when God puts the evil we have done to harm people on one side of a scale and the good on the other side. Then hopefully the good will outweigh the bad we have done to others. In general people are going to treat us...

    Charity

    For years the government owed me money on my income tax return and I did not bother to file for it. There maybe lots of people who do not try to get every penny back from their local city, country, state & federal governments. For some they feel it is more trouble then it is worth to try and get...

    What Surname?

    You do not have a choice, you have to use the name on your birth certificate. If you want to change it, then you need to go to court. Although they say that can be fairly easy to do.

    March the 19th/20th saturday, Earth quake , US ?

    In order to get the gas out they have to pressurized the well. The fluid they use tends to contaminate the water wells in the area. They seem to think that is a small price to pay.

    March the 19th/20th saturday, Earth quake , US ?

    Back in the 60's when the fish in Lake Erie died they said it was pollution. Now a million fish in the ocean end up dead and they say it is "oxygen deprivation". Whatever it is, that is a million fish that could have been someone dinner.

    Reasons for Accepting the KJV as God's Preserved Word

    They are not intended to be a translation. Some are Bible commentarys, some are paraphrase. The problem is when you consider them to be a translation.

    Reasons for Accepting the KJV as God's Preserved Word

    The origional language and the origional author was inspired by God. The KJV maybe the best translation, but it is still subject to interpretation and translation issues. Moses said we are to love God with our whole heart, soul & strength. Jesus when He translated the verse said we are to love...
