    Is prayer just a placebo ? Faith crisis, please help !

    Makes me wonder especially after reading just enough about the multi universe theory to get me in trouble. What is reality but what we perceive? And what is our perception, if not our creation? That's deep. Should add that in my opinion nobody should be afraid to look at and attempt to...

    Bible Study WHY!

    I know this is not a debate forum. I only want to point out that Torah (the Law) has nothing to do with an afterlife or eternal salvation. If I were to compare it to something to help some understand it would be like your Constitution. It and Torah is a set of laws governing our everyday life...

    Bible Study WHY!

    Chopper, are you asking for scriptural evidence just from the Christian New Testament? Btw, my wife and I have cruised the Maine coast one summer, beautiful country. Lots of fog and blueberries. :)

    Bible Study isiah 2:2

    1 The word that Isaiah the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem. I find it concerns Judah and Jerusalem 2 And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of Yehovah's house shall be established on the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all...

    Bible Study Why Sacrifice So Many Animals?

    Hi Chopper, Why so many sacrifices? Good question. However I ask: why sacrifice at all? Sacrifice I tend to think was a carry over from the days of living in Mizraim. Could be, people were weak and couldn't shake off the pagan nature they had developed while in bondage. Commandments...

    Bible Study WELCOME TO AN IN DEPTH STUDY OF MATTHEW'S GOSPEL.

    Just to clarify I think Jesus taught not to trust in yourself that you are righteous, and not to despise others or in otherwords not to look upon them with contempt. I must admit it sounds like Jesus was speaking to the vast majority of people in any religion. :) Anyway, Chopper I know your...

    Bible Study WELCOME TO AN IN DEPTH STUDY OF MATTHEW'S GOSPEL.

    C'mon now, you just can't make blanket statements like that, well you can but... No where does it say as you seem to imply the prayers of all Pharisees and Scribes were for show. As I pointed out a few posts above the Pharisee and the publican were simply used as an example. As verse 9 seems...

    Bible Study WELCOME TO AN IN DEPTH STUDY OF MATTHEW'S GOSPEL.

    Ok I see, however it should be noted one was a pharisee the other publican. Two men should in no way describe a whole people or office. It would I think be the same as me saying all pastors pray or think like Fred Phelps. The beginning of the parable is. "And he spake this parable unto...

    Why is this model of prayer in contrast to the Scribes and the Pharasee?

    Bible Study WELCOME TO AN IN DEPTH STUDY OF MATTHEW'S GOSPEL.

    Why? In proverbs it is written "The spirit of man is the candle of Yehovah,..." . Maybe one reason we pray is that tiny little flame in us longs to be reunited with the larger fire.

    Bible Study WELCOME TO AN IN DEPTH STUDY OF MATTHEW'S GOSPEL.

    Below is a link which explains in so many words a jewish perspective on charity (giving to the needy). It briefly goes into its origin found in Leviticus and how that commandement was expounded upon by rabbis. Additionally there is a realy good link to a young Muslim woman Amani and her...

    God’s Dietary Laws

    I can only surmise why God would not alow us eat certain things as there doesn't seem to be any reasons given. Some animals have one thing in common they eat carrion, waste, things we ourselves nolonger want in our homes or would eat. Those animals itended purpose seems to be garbage disposals...

    God’s Dietary Laws

    I tend to disagree that this portion of Peters life was telling him pork and other unclean beasts were now on the menu. First off the story begins with the telling of Cornelius: A devout man, and one that feared God with all his house, which gave much alms to the people, and prayed to God alway...

    God’s Dietary Laws

    Instruction on diet. Imagine that, a father or mother telling their child what is or what isn't beneficial for them. Then on top of that expecting them to listen and be obedient. Parents expect way too much these days, children should always be allowed to do as they please without...

    Is the Earth Flat?

    Exploration and expanding our knowledge of the universe is I think a good thing. I really do find it fascinating that people are going to build a machine to test this holographic theory. The article does a fair job of explaining the basics. Even so, the theory is so far beyond my feeble...

    [Comment removed by Staff] What does it mean to be in the light? What was given to Moses so God's servant would be as a light unto the nations? I pretty sure your Jesus didn't he was that light rather he was IN that light and didn't he say that you should be in that light as he was in that...
