Another thing that I see that is quite different today from what it was when I was a teenager is the amount of time spent outdoors. As kids, we lived outdoors winter and summer. I remember coming in during the winter and finding out that my hands were so cold, I couldn't grip the zipper on my...

I got home from school at about 3:15 and had to be at work by 4:00 so it was jump on the bike and go. I rode a lot of bike back then. Fortunately, it was generally a downhill grade, not much but enough to help maintain my speed. Coming home, especially as it got toward fall, it was usually dark...

2-speed power glide. Funny thing...one of the motor mounts had separated so I had to be careful about how hard I accelerated otherwise the motor would lift off the mount. I could potentially put the fan through the radiator if I wasn't careful. The first two vehicles I bought for myself I paid...

I entered my sophomore year in 1974. I turned 16 and got my driver's license that February. On my 16th birthday my mother woke me up early and told me that it was time for me to go out and find a job. I found two jobs by 10:00 that morning. One of them was to help the trash collection company in...

Yes, in Jesus Christ.

What good is increased attendance if the truth is not presented? This is exactly what this Scripture speaks of. 3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers; 4 and...

Ask Adam and Eve.

I'm speaking of hypocrisy in the church itself. Does it or does it not follow God's plan? Did God change His mind regarding certain sinful behaviors? I also have heard there have been some possible movement within the Catholic church to allow women to be ordained. If the church is adhering to...

This is an example of hypocrisy.

So, if you're invited to someone's home and they set a table before you, you refuse to eat because they cooked it and not you?

Sure.

1 “I am the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser. 2 Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit He takes away; and every branch that bears fruit He prunes, that it may bear more fruit. 3 You are already clean because of the word which I have spoken to you. 4 Abide in Me, and I in you. As...

So, are there other questions you have that you still need answers for? The Q&A forum is not intended to be used for a soapbox where you can make a presentation and not have to deal with counter arguments.

They do if the 2nd post contains a question and you are simply answering that question. I posted this for everyone's benefit.

This is one area where the churches today don't take things as seriously as they probably should. We tend to turn a blind eye to wanton sinful behavior. It's one thing to have an occasional falling away but entirely something else to continue living a lifestyle that one knows is inappropriate.

This is what Jesus said about it. 31 “Furthermore it has been said, ‘Whoever divorces his wife, let him give her a certificate of divorce.’ 32 But I say to you that whoever divorces his wife for any reason except sexual immorality causes her to commit adultery; and whoever marries a woman who...

I'd like to remind everyone that this Q&A forum is not for debating differences of opinion. We are to focus on answering the OP's questions only and not debate each other.
