    Did we live as spirits before the earth was created?

    woe... that is poor "systematic theology" if I've ever seen it. Where to start. Before one ever picks up a Bible or handles the word of truth one needs to prepare spiritually and submit to the word of God... recognizing what it says... not determining what it says and taking God's word out of...

    The Trinity: A Third Point of View

    #2 can be linked with the "Jesus Only" Movement or Oneness Pentecostals. Supposably a man had a vision that Jesus was also the Father and the Holy Spirit. People had to be re-baptized in the name of "Jesus-only" in order to be saved. I disagree with this viewpoint/movement because we can...

    Did we live as spirits before the earth was created?

    Woe... this makes me nervous. First of all, in this portion of scripture we find God asking Job eighty-some questions... one after another after another and nowhere can we make a doctrine from this passage of scripture that human beings are eternal... That is without beginning and without end...

    [__ Prayer __] My Girlfriend has an ecoptic pregnancy

    Man, that sounds tough to go through. I bet that a flood of thoughts are going through your mind right now and you're overwhelmed and she's overwhelmed. I pray that God will give you peace and wisdom on what decisions to take. If you ever want someone to talk to man I'm a good listener and I'm...

    Help! My son has became an Atheist!

    Genesis 35 reveals the story of Jacob returning to Bethel (Bethel means the house of God). Jacob essentially tells his household to put away their foreign gods and purify themselves. His household is going to serve God. This chapter reveals a man who's family is unraveling. I guess my advice...

    long hair?

    Paul's argument is based on nature... not culture. We see that when he says "does not nature itself teach you..." So you may try to throw the verse out with the "that was for that culture, in that time and that context" card... but again, his argument is based on nature... not culture. If it...

    long hair?

    I don't know how great that argument is. Would Jesus love me any less if I sinned 100 times today? No. does that mean I should/could go out and sin 100 times today? No. Would Jesus love me any less if I had long hair? No. Does that mean I should/could grow long hair? No. I guess what I'm...

    Hey You Pre-Tribbers!!!

    I am staunchly Millenial and pre-trib. Romans 5:9--> Since we have now been justified by his blood, how much more shall we be saved from God's wrath through him!" 1 Thess 5:9-11"God did not appoint us to suffer wrath but to receive salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ. He died for us so...

    long hair?

    I heard the story of a man who was a lifeguard. He was a nearly committed Christian who had long hair he read the passage in the Bible which says doesn't culture... I mean uh nature teach you that it is a shame for a man to have long hair? We should know the culture and the historical...

    Atheist?

    Woe, this is a buncha "bullets" to shoot & it takes time to dive into each issue 1. On the problem of Evil. If God created people to have two lives, (A)an earthly life, and (B) a heavenly life, Is it not reasonable that he has the right to take people from life (A)--->earthly life to...

    What is your idea of a romantic man?

    Get a giant jar and 365 blank notes. Take one day and write down those 365 notes and put them in the jar. Have you're wife pull out a new note once a day for the year. One note could tell her how much you love her. Another note could be "let's go out to eat at Olive Garden" Another note...

    preaching on the streets on campus

    Charles Spurgeon was a magnificent open air/street preacher and he strongly urged preachers who are going into ministry to spend a year or so open air preaching. Now, the handling of God's word is a very, oh, "sacred" matter. One ought not handle God's word in a way that blasphemes and brings...

    What kind of Bible do you use?"

    I'm partial to the NKJV. I'm trying to make the transition to the NASB but like the sound of the NKJV more. The next Bible I buy, however, will be an ESV because it is a literal translation (from people I trust) that has the poetic sound like the NKJV.

    How do you define “soul�

    Well, first there are three positions on what a human is composed of the first position is "monism" "monism" would claim there is no soul, there is just the body, or physical. This is probably a bad stance. Dichotomy would claim there are two parts to a human. Material, and immaterial. The...

    Is it ok to stay friends with exes?

    Fembot I see the validity of your question. I currently attend a Bible college and my sophmore year I began dating a lady I'd become really close friends with. I mean we hung out probably every day at college. Then we began dating for seven or eight months before she broke up with me during...

    Should Christians listen to Veggie Tales?

    I have nothing against Veggietales. Just please, don't play their Veggie worship albums around me. It just 'ruins' it.

    Skillet: The Way of the World

    Oh, man, I am addicted to skillet (Thus frying-pan-addict) I've turned a dozen or more friends into Skillet fans. Some were Christian, some were non-Christian. When either one hears a skillet song it's not too long before they ask me: Mark, This skillet song is "Kill me, heal me" What on...
