    Silent Prayer: Judge has determined a man is guilty of prayer

    What concerns me about this is how many "Christian" sources are showing their lack of integrity by only reporting on the part that fits their agenda and not giving the whole story. That is not a "Christian" attitude to take. At the same time, I don't think the buffer zone was created to stop...

    MOCKING JESUS ON HALLOWEEN - Thoughts?

    Explain how someone can dress up like Jesus. Nobody knows what He looked like so... Aside from that, why do you take offense? I think God has rather large shoulders and He does not need us to be His defenders. Do you think it bothered Jesus when He was mocked? I don't. What did He do in...

    Baptism - when are you ready?

    You have received quite a few answers. Has your question been answered or do you still have more?

    Baptism - when are you ready?

    Baptism is much more than just a public declaration. Baptism is a means of grace that God uses to create and sustain faith in the person being baptized. It's more than just the water. It is a sacrament ordained by Christ himself that includes the water along with the Word of God. It is commanded...

    What do you do?

    What you do is up to you. My personal view is that the underlying evil of the holiday is only valid as long as it is celebrated. Trick or treat is not celebrating some ancient pagan ritual. It is just a fun thing to do one particular day each year. As for the one who is weak in faith, welcome...

    Need some help-Marriage

    Yes and no. Some denominations will perform the ceremony without the need to meet the requirements of the governmental body having jurisdiction such as a marriage license. The basis for this is that marriage is a covenant determined by God and not the state and therefore the couple would be...

    Question?

    It has become apparent that this discussion has not been started to obtain answers to any specific question about our faith but rather to discuss theologically a particular topic therefore, I am moving this discussion to the Theology forum. I believe this would be a better fit.

    Need some help-Marriage

    I do not know for sure but based on your opening post I suspect you are getting insurance coverage through a government social program and you're asking if it is okay to manipulate things to your financial advantage. I would have to wrestle with the morality of that for one thing. I'm going...

    Silent Prayer: Judge has determined a man is guilty of prayer

    This is an example of how facts can be twisted or omitted to fit a narrative. There might be more to this story than is being presented here. Adam Smith Connor was supposedly previously issued a safe zone order regarding abortion clinics, similar to a restraining order, prohibiting him from...

    How the very early manuscripts were safeguarded from error

    To my knowledge the original writings from the authors of the books of the Holy Bible do not exist today. Everything we have are copies of those originals.

    Question?

    Are you asking questions or attempting to debate the topic? This Questions and Answers forum is for members to ask questions and get answers from other members. It is not for debating topics and it appears by your last comment, "A hint, Revelation 11:18" in the post I quoted here that you are...

    Question?

    You might have to be a little more specific.

    Is Sarcasm always bad?

    Maybe there is a limit? Therefore, putting away lying, “Let each one of you speak truth with his neighbor,” for we are members of one another. “Be angry, and do not sin”: do not let the sun go down on your wrath, nor give place to the devil. Let him who stole steal no longer, but rather let him...

    Is Sarcasm always bad?

    I would say it has to do with how it is applied. I use sarcasm in jest among my own circle of friends. They know that I am just being facetious or silly or whatever and that I do not intend it to hurt or discredit or disrespect anyone. It's just a way of poking fun and it is often returned in...

    Hypothetical Question

    57 Now it happened as they journeyed on the road, that someone said to Him, “Lord, I will follow You wherever You go.” 58 And Jesus said to him, “Foxes have holes and birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head.” 59 Then He said to another, “Follow Me.” But he...

    Bible Study Anger

    This is something I have actually noticed in myself lately. The older I get the less things seem to get under my skin and the more I am able to just let things go past me. Maybe I'm just getting less emotional, or maybe I am just learning that I cannot control others.

    Is Baptism necessary for Salvation?

    Bottom line as far as I am concerned.... Jesus commanded it and required it for Himself and that's enough for me. If Jesus commanded me to levitate, walk on water, or give up everything for Him as He did the rich young ruler (Luke 18:18-23), I would hope that I would follow His command and not...
