    Secular Music a sin?

    This is absolutely true. It doesn't mean all secular music is evil, though... although today, a lot of it is. There are some real gems though that really draw me to Christ. I limit my exposure to secular music, I think an abundance of the worldly coming into our minds produce an abundance of...

    People should be more Universal

    Amen, smaller. You know what tells me that there is hope for our brother Deep? The Gospel offended something in him. It is better to be hot or cold than indifferent. He has not yet been given over to a reprobate mind.

    People should be more Universal

    There's no need to run in the opposite direction, brother. The word of God is a sword. All of us have been pricked by it. I would have never come to Christ otherwise! You think that I am doing you a disservice or that I'm being cruel to you, but I'm not. It's tough love. God loves you, but you...

    People should be more Universal

    So you are both deceived and prideful. That's why there is no place for faith in you. You need to empty your cup first. I wasn't being rude to you, I was exposing the spirit within you by the scriptures, so that you can see. It was not I who exposed it, but the light of the written word of...

    Never heard of it!

    How should a Christian die?

    Spirit-filled. I want my funeral to be my last sermon. May there be a confident smile on my face in the casket, or if I'm to die as a martyr, let me go out shouting Psalms.

    For the ones who know they haven't quite made it

    Repeat after me: I am not great compared to where I'm going. But I have decided to be exceptional for Jesus where I am and trust in the process.

    Growth Calling All Ministers

    We're blessed here on CF.net to have an abundance of preachers, pastors and ministers. As such I wanted to get some very valuable information from you all about getting your feet wet initially as a preacher. Where did you start, and how? Did you already have some sermons written up, and the...

    Bible Study Why is the Body of Christ (Christian Church) so fractured/divided?

    This exact thing has been happening now -- the filioque -- the Roman addition of "and the Son" to the Creed has been debated by Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox for hundreds of years. Isn't it maddening?

    Bible Study Why is the Body of Christ (Christian Church) so fractured/divided?

    I go where I'm able to draw closest to God corporately and individually. My church teaches the rapture and I'm not convinced of it at all. You'd think that judging by some legalist responses to my unbelief that I'd miss the rapture if it does exist. That's a problem. I've been to churches that...

    Is This a Church?

    No, but it is fellowship.

    Bible Study Why is the Body of Christ (Christian Church) so fractured/divided?

    It used to trouble me greatly, and I apologize sincerely if this seems like a simple cop-out, because to me it truly isn't, but this is what I've come to find... There are so many because we humans are so diverse. With exception to blatant heresies that even the elementary theology student...

    Are we already in the Last Days?

    No sir, but I do think we're closer to it than further away.

    Proof of Trinity

    I think humans are the best proof of the Trinity. We are made in the image of God, who is Father, Son and Holy Spirit, One God in Three Persons. We are likewise three in one, body, mind, and spirit, each distinct, but still one.

    Growth Character Discussion

    I have believed in Jesus since I was a little boy, and I've been to several churches growing up. I was never really active in my faith until I was a teenager, and it was short-lived, as my character was weak and I craved validation and esteem, and I got into drugs and drinking. From there I...

    Growth Charles Spurgeon On The Psalms
