    Free Will is a Fallen Will

    A few thoughts as I'm reading the different views here. Does God offer salvation to everyone freely? Jesus came to save the world not to condemn it. But those who reject Jesus have already been condemned, because they reject the Son of God. I think God knows what our choices are before we...

    What is a man?

    Revelation has an epic tale that starts with Jesus opening a scroll with many seals, announcing many prophecies and judgments, and ending with the new Jerusalam and a new kingdom on earth. Just before that though is the final judgement in Revelations just after the defeat of Satan. Revelation...

    What is a man?

    Thankyou for the explaination that you've had for that parable. I've not heard of that interpretation, so it's something to consider. Nonetheless, there are two other challenges I have from the bible, and one more from outside the bible. One is while Jesus was on the cross and one of the...

    What is a man?

    I know the conversation has moved on, and sorry for not getting back sooner. But in this case, most of what I can say is the simple "I don't know." After we die if we don't go to heaven or an afterlife like place, there's no reason to say that we won't wait while knowing the time that passes...

    Christian Comic Book

    A lot of good stuff in that book that gets ignored in Christian lives. Obedience and the threat of hell is a hard stone to consider, while in the same light to love one another, and to forgive each other. It seems that people see one side of the coin, to be obedient; or they see the other side...

    If you see the world as Evil

    Broken is the word I use the most, instead of evil. But even that has cause some strong disagreement among atheists who don't like the termology "the world is broken, and continually breaking." Even after a long tangent of trying to disprove God exists because of the hardships, sorrow and...

    How did you find God? (Or how did God find you?)

    There are some great inspiring testimonies that I've seen here, some from a lifetime of simular stories, others from a select few testomies that they share. Then there are many here who have a conviction and faith that is equally inspiring. Or the knowledge and study to teach in detail the...

    What is a man?

    I see. Thank you for that explanation. I misunderstood what you were saying. Staying dead before the reserection us a possibility. The only thing I can offer to say otherwise is in Jesus's parable of the rich man and the begger after they die. Since it was a parable I don't know how much to...

    What is a man?

    One more to look at is in Luke 20:27-40, where a group of Sadducees challenged Jesus about the reserection. But the main point I want to address is verses 37-38 Luke 20:37-38 But now, as to whether the dead will be raised—even Moses proved this when he wrote about the burning bush. Long after...

    What is a man?

    Here are two verses to consider. The way I understand it they are talking about a life after death. Mathew 6:19-21 19Don’t store up treasures here on earth, where moths eat them and rust destroys them, and where thieves break in and steal. 20 Store your treasures in heaven, where moths and...

    What is a man?

    I'll have to look the verses up, but I know Jesus talks about living after we die.

    What is a man?

    Is this more about what man is, or what happens when we die? Jesus teaches about heaven and hell, rewards from God in the next life, and punishments for wickedness. Jesus even talks about being born again of the spirit, and being spared of the second death. These things are either reliable...

    Why would we ever pray for our enemies?

    Are you asking how to love your enemy, instead of how to pray for your enemy? This is more then an emotional feeling. Love is an action. In justice and the courts this means fairness to everyone, and to not favor one set of people over another set of people. In work relationships this means...

    ‘Grooming’: Washington passes far-left sex ed plan promoting promiscuity, LGBT, abortion

    In general I would say that indoctrination and education are the same thing, just whether someone agrees with what's being taught or not. However this challenges that stance quite a bit. Calling it grooming is an accurate discription, and I can't say anything against this being an example of...

    ‘Grooming’: Washington passes far-left sex ed plan promoting promiscuity, LGBT, abortion

    Only bad things can come out of this. Instead of teaching young kids to stay safe, not let strangers or others touch you in an inappropriate way, and how to deal with sexual advances, they are actively making sex more accepted at a younger age. Higher rates of pedophilia, expecially from...

    Why would we ever pray for our enemies?

    Because God loves them.

    Should women submit to their husbands?

    What does the bible say on the matter?

    Brainwashing

    Do you know the difference between the two? Or more to the point, is there anything in Islam to stop a Muslim from joining an ISIS like group? Within Christianity I can name a few points that would stop people from becoming dovoted to militarized hate. On of those elements it to not fight...
