I don't know which side you are talking about but taking your sentence on face value ...I AGREE. That is the main reason I don't come to this forum any more but have now joined another Christian forum. Both sides have lots of verses to uphold their view, and both sides genuinely think they're...

We have a thread going at the moment on a local message board and it's now up to 1,500 posts - it's a game called "The Ministers Cat". Do you all know it? I'll start it off........ The Ministers Cat is a Awesome cat.

Hi Stephanie, Good to hear from you. It's nice to hear you enjoy your church. So do I. It is a small community church with every denomination going to it so it's great to have such unity there. What church do you do to? I must just say that I wrote 'demonication' up above!! :-) No, I'm not...

Hi anie77, I love your verses on your personal statement of faith.

Hi to anyone visiting here. I live in New Zealand and enjoy communicating on the computer. I love writing to people all over the world and hearing about their countries. I am married with two sons in their 20's. I've been to Israel to visit two years ago so am very interested in the Jewish...

Good for you Faralady. Pleased you have found a place you are happy. Go for it!

I am utterly gobsmacked!!! I wonder when this sort of prohibition will get to NZ? I guess the beginning of the end...

Vickie, not sure if you are talking about your husband or a friend, but yes, Satan will certainly try every trick he knows if he sees his enemy being effective.

I agree with Christina - how can you kill that which dosn't exist? Maybe we as christians need to re-think how many children we should and could be having and keeping up more (with the muslims) but I don't think doing away with birth control is the answer. Many people use birth control to put...

:rolleyesJLMichaels I had a little chuckle when I read your post. It's obvious you have done some thinking about what this will be like. I too have an imagination andI like to think about it. I conclude that it will be so different and amazing and far beyond what anyone here on earth has...

Very interesting reading from everyone and an interesting topic.The laws of the land in this generation we live in now say that to be married we have a certificate etc, in the past and in different cultures the rules have been different. God tells us to respect and obey the laws and the...

This is sad - what must Faralady be thinking!Take your arguments to a different place I reckon.Faralady, the best thing you can do is join a good churchbut if that is impossible (like you live in the middle of nowhere orthere is no bible based church where you live)then that is OK too to not go...

Hi Faralady,Such good news that you accepted Jesus as your Saviour! Trust that you are enjoying your bible reading and learning something new every day.To find the right church take your time and pray about it. God will lead you to the rightone. Although you will never find the perfect church it...

Hawkins, good post thanks.Sometimes our intelligence can get in the way of faith, just like being extremely wealthy can also.A highly intelligent person finds it harder to activate their faith.We can trip ourselves up and follow down side roads and get all twisted up trying to decipher and find...

Most athiests are just normal minding-their-own-business sort of people. Good and bad, likable, unlikable...BUT there are those that make me see red (and I try very hard not too!)There are several reasons for this.1. They are just repeating over and over what they have heard from others or been...
