    What bible verses should I read for this problem?

    Genesis 1:26-27 Then God said, “Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness, so that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock and all the wild animals, and over all the creatures that move along the ground.” <sup class="versenum">27 </sup>So God...

    "The Bible" ....3-3-13 on the History Channel

    I'm generally skeptical of the objectivity of shows on major media channels which deal with the Bible. Generally they treat evolution as fact and the Bible as myth. We'll see how it goes. It is encouraging that some well respected Christian theologians are endorsing it.

    Your favorite search engine

    Generally Google, but sometimes it is blocked here or I can't find what I want so I use Yahoo. I believe Google has about an 85% market share.

    In answer of your question, yes I am currently serving in China. Basically I am doing evangelism and discipleship here.

    When Your Wife Does Not Support Your Vision

    That would be tough. I would think the first step would be to do everything possible to strengthen the marriage. If the marriage is where it should be, I believe the wife will eventually come around to supporting the husband's vision. Improving a marriage doesn't have to start with both sides...

    How do you make Friends as an Adult?

    It's hard to make close friends in my experience unless you have common interests. Currently my best friends have mostly stemmed from playing basketball together. At the beginning I asked them if they wanted to play and we went together. Over time we kept playing together and gradually coming...

    Which would be worse Recieving the Mark of the Beast or Killing yourself before.....

    Re: Which would be worse Recieving the Mark of the Beast or Killing yourself before.. It's not an either/or question. Just like no one can force you to renounce your faith, no one can force you to get the mark of the beast. Presumably if you refuse to get it, they will kill you and you will be...

    A wife being under the husband.

    "* Women are to submit to their husbands. Is this a kind of punishment for what Eve did?" I don't the submitting is necessarily the punishment. Rather gender conflict, oppression from men, and women being unsatisfied with their lot in life is the punishment. Submitting to the husband in a...

    Christ was a single MAN.

    In 1 Corinthians it says that a married man is concerned with pleasing his wife, while a single one is concerned about pleasing God. While it is not sinful to get married, I believe Christ chose to be single to focus completely on His mission.

    Easter vs Christmas.

    Both are equally important since both had to happen for redemption to be possible. I kind of like Easter because it has not been as secularized as Christmas yet.

    Eternal life

    Thanks for taking the time to post here to share the gospel. Personally, I am not so big on asking people to recite a sinner's prayer. Assurance is based on their belief in what the Word says about Christ and repentance of sins, not on reciting a sentence. Everyone has their own method for...

    Dying peacefully

    My mother-in-law passed away recently. Without modern day extreme measures she would have passed much sooner. Nowadays at the end of life it can get very complicated. Just how far do you go to keep someone alive?

    Do Animals Go To Heaven ?

    Animals do not have souls and therefore death is the end for them, no heaven and no hell.

    Must a Christian marry a fellow Christian

    Absolutely not. It is forbidden in the Bible both directly and indirectly. Not that my experience really matters since the Bible has spoken, but I have seen many examples of believers who date or marry unbelievers and are drawn astray, just like Solomon was. Sometime ago, I did a study and...

    Good quality, spousal gift idea?

    My wife would think I went crazy if I tried that gift idea.

    Do infants, young children and the mentally incapcitated go to heaven?

    I recently discussed this topic in a Bible study when we were going over the 10th plague in Exodus (which presumably killed a lot of Egyptian children). I will copy below my personal study notes from that discussion. Because of our sin, we all deserve death. This applies to every man, woman...

    End Times questions

    To God a day is as a thousand years and a thousand years is as a day, so those verses don't necessarily mean that Jesus is coming soon. The disciples thought He was coming soon as well. No one knows the time or the hour, but it could come at at any time.

    There will be NO Secret Rapture!

    I believe in the rapture. If the verses in the Bible are studied carefully it is pretty clear there are two different events (one Jesus coming in the clouds to meet believers in the air) and the other Jesus coming to earth to establish His kingdom. However, I don't believe this rapture is going...

    Should Christians Be Cremated ?

    I don't think it matters one way or the other as far as God raising up our bodies and giving us new bodies. Decomposed or cremated, don't think it matters to God. It certainly doesn't matter to me since I will be dead. I have always told my family to bury me as cheaply as possible. Waste of...
