    Truth Be Told

    Jesus indicated we must be born again in order to partake of salvation. There's a few other things He said we also need to do to keep our salvation safe, to secure it. In my personal experience, when I was born again there was no one around to baptise me in water, but I've no doubt that God...

    Hello from South East Queensland, Australia

    Hi. Thank you. I'm afraid I won't countenance the ads for long, so I will probably end up only being a short termer. Thank you for your welcome though, it is much appreciated. Shalom

    Hello from South East Queensland, Australia

    Not sure what the immigration criteria is, but they probably change it from time to time. We are a small population and at the other end of the world, so I suspect they look at shortages in our skills base and defer to people that have those. We used to have paternal rights that would enable us...

    Hello from South East Queensland, Australia

    Thank you. I’ve never been to Tasmania, but would love to visit. My BIL is from there. NE Tassie looks very inviting. Nice avatar btw, I’ve been trying to figure which variety of Kingfisher it is, it has lovely colouring.

    Hello from South East Queensland, Australia

    Yes, it's pretty well on the border. My sister lives just south of the border (yes, she's a Mexican ) and gets a lot of airplane traffic overhead, so it's a fairly busy airport.

    Hello from South East Queensland, Australia

    May you and your sisters have a great time here, Angelina. There's plenty to do there, and the beaches are special. The Hinterland is worth an inspection too. The Scenic Rim route wanders through some great countryside and villages. I have a sister that lives on the border of Qld and NSW, just...

    Letter of the Law vs. Spirit of the Law

    True. I guess the way of adjudicating what is right or wrong, is that every case ought be judged on its merits. As a norm though, I look at the laws of the land in a positive way. They help communities interoperate without cannoning into each other, which is a good thing. If we didn't have...

    Submission Of The Wife: How Serious A Matter Is It?

    Thank you. At the risk of sounding arrogant, I'm pretty sure what I am inferring here is correct. But I'll ask the Lord and see what He says.

    Submission Of The Wife: How Serious A Matter Is It?

    Well, we know the apostle says the husband is the head of the wife. We also know that Jesus said that "they become one flesh". I have to ask people therefore, which part of their body has Lordship over the rest. Of course, no part has. All parts of the body need to work in harmony to achieve a...

    Is Jesus the End of the Law?

    "Christian are not under the law" They are not under the Mosaic law, and specifically of its system of offerings and sacrifices that were instituted to appease God, but they are under God's moral laws. They still prevail. Anyone suggesting anything else is contending with what Jesus taught, and...

    Hello from South East Queensland, Australia

    That's still a popular drive for campers and day trippers. Some keep going up past Rainbow and hop onto Fraser Island. That used to be a favourite thing to do for backpackers until Covid put a stopper on that. Backpackers are starting to come back now. Great beaches, great fishing, and great...

    Is Jesus the End of the Law?

    Yes. #1 = Love God, ie honour and obey Him, above everything and everyone, irrespective of cost; #2 = Love others and ourselves, through honouring and obeying the these commandments and the Spirit behind them in everything we do. These commandments are mutually inclusive, we can't do one...
