    Do you believe in predestination ?

    Brethren, I appreciate the Christian courtesy and reasonableness that the posters on this thread are using. But there is a problem with philosophy. One Godly poster stated that if you can choose to accept Christ, you control God by forcing Him to save you. Scripture teaches that God did indeed...

    Do you believe in predestination ?

    Good to hear from you, SeasonedbyGrace. The critical remarks made about you were posted by someone else, not by me.

    Do you believe in predestination ?

    Grace, there are no Scriptures, at all, on predestination to be saved, to be lost, to Heaven, or to Hell. These philosophical concepts are not found in the Bible. In order for Calvinist philosophy to work, the words "unconditional" and "unconditionally" must be read into certain verses. Neither...

    Cheap Laptops

    MS plans to release a budget laptop in early 2022. It will run Windows SE, which is designed for school use. It includes a program that allows the teacher some control over all the computers in a class (that are running 11SE). At $250US, this Celeron-chip laptop will be adequate for school use...

    Do you believe in predestination ?

    To answer your question, Grace, God is not limited by the future. God is not helplessly bound to what He foreknows. God chose to save those He knew would come to Christ, but He was not forced to make that choice. He chose to predestine them to the adoption of sons and to to be made like...

    Do you believe in predestination ?

    The Scriptures clearly teach that every born-again Christian is predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, and is predestined to the adoption of sons. Predestination to Heaven or to Hell are philosophies invented by men and not found in Scripture.

    Tip #1, Rollo: Buy a copybook (like they sell to school children) and write down all your passwords. I've been doing that for over 25 years, and it has gotten me out of a lot of trouble. From your post, it seems that your computer is okay--you're having difficulty finding things that 11 moved...

    Rollo, can you tell us what happened? And, do you meet double the minimum requirements?

    Windows 11

    Microsoft has happily announced that they are expanding the numbers and types of Windows 10 computers that will be sold with Windows 11 installed. Even with TPM turned on, 11 has been running well on Windows 10 computers that meet the requirements. I expect prices to drop after New Year's Day...

    Windows 11

    Windows 11 has not created many waves. However, SOME people can now install Android aps. MS has picked out fifty Android aps that work well with Windows, and they are available only on the Insiders Program. They're afraid to launch them into the general public yet.

    Windows 11

    The first complaints are coming in. Certain AMD processors, while meeting the minimum requirements, are slowing down about 15% under Windows 11. The biggest problems, of course, are high-end programs such as games. MS apparently expected this to happen but didn't warn consumers. MS promises to...

    Windows 11

    The first full versions of Windows 11 have been released (I'm still on the waiting list) and the results are: 1) It works 2) Customers are disappointed at how little it does different than Windows 10 As explained previously, Windows 11 is essentially the Windows 10X upgrade. It re-arranges the...

    Windows 11

    There are a lot of posts on the Windows Insider forum, urging MS to make their TPM program optional. Folks, if that's all you want, you only need to stay with Windows 10. Despite the hoopla, Windows 11 is essentially the Windows 10X upgrade. It re-arranges the operating system, but does little...

    Windows 11

    On October 3, 2021, Nokia will begin marketing the first Windows 11 laptop. It is mid-range (Core I5) with either 8 or 16 gigs of RAM. I assume that they have tested it and that it works well.

    Valid points, Tim. My wife and I are big game players, so we use Windows. My Chromebook, however, is much faster if I only want to go on the web.

    Windows 11

    One piece of good news and two pieces of bad news: 1) Windows 11 does not have the legendary Blue Screen of Death 2) They replaced it with the Black Screen of Death 3) This is not a joke.

    Windows 11

    The Plot Thickens! Microsoft announced yesterday that Virtual Machines (that allow you to run programs on a separated operatistem) that do not meet the minimum requirements will not receive Windows 11 updates. Huh? Okay, a virtual machine is a computer program that creats an artificial...

    Well Gang, it's the first full week of football, and the Windows 11 sports gadget has miserably failed the test. Connecting you to the Microsoft Sports site, the gadget gives you the latest scores--from several hours ago. This Sunday morning it was still reporting yesterday's college football...

    Windows 11

    Is there an online diagnostic test to determine if your pc is up to snuff? No. But if you use any search engine, it will give you two free diagnostic tests for Windows 11. Neither one will harm your computer. However, both of them will fail you if your TPM chip is not turned on.
