I haven't been a long time member. I came here with hope and excitement that I would be able to have some good and vigorous discussions and debates and be challenged on issues. I really appreciate many conversations I've had - both public and private behind the scenes, and the patience and love...

My apologies all. I get the feeling that by coming back and being transparent I've just created a mess. I'm not getting direct answers, and it seems that pursuing this is just sowing seed for arguments instead of discussing in love.@MattMooradian - I really appreciate your response and will...

Hi Quietthinker. Thanks for that but I'm struggling to understand how that context fits into video games and was hoping to know where and how you draw a line as to what is acceptable. (Hence my quesions to you about what are your thoughts on me learning to sail and play through esail simulator...

Where do I start. I have more questions than answers as this topic is very relevant to me and I am like a sponge and interested in numerous thoughts on the subject to try and find a biblical standpoint. To start with.... Thanks for posting that verse. I'd like to elaborate on this a little...

Just curious as to people's thoughts on this. As an example - Netflix has released cuties now, and seems unrepentant of supporting such media. Disney seems to also be on a SJW mission to spread lies to kids about sexuality. Subscribing to such services means that we are in a way supporting...

Oh - if they're guilty (which very much looks that way to me) - I really hope so! And I hope no silly million dollar fines either. If they're guilty - they along with those involved in Netflix's "Cuties" (if found guilty too) need to be spending JAIL TIME - just like the rest of us would if we...

I was borne in a Christian home and always wanted to follow God- but when I got older in my late teenage years I noticed a lot of what was preached didn't line up with reality and questioning it was frowned upon. I wanted truth, I wanted to be transparent and and I wanted genuine so I went...

My post was primarily not about the political scene. It's about Christians so quick to show support, justify and agreeing decisions of the wicked with no understanding of ramifications of such ideologies. Maybe I misunderstood your post, but as I read it - with the references to war, adversary...

I'm sorry Jay. I like you're "Try to see the best in people" approach - even though I disagree with much of what you have said on this topic I can see you have a positive outlook. But I'm very concerned regarding your thought pattern - some of what you are saying seems straight out of CCP's...

I am so sorry to hear of your situation. I'll start by saying I'm not 100% sure on the subject. As I have understood scripture, marriage is a covenant between man and God. Yes - we can have ceremonies, and sign paper so it's legal in the eyes of our governments - but even all this still falls in...

I'll pray for Trump. I'm thankful that he is there at a time such as this and believe that God is using Him. May God use this situation to put another spanner in the works of the evil one! But I also pray for our Premier - who I strongly disagree with and believe is a wicked man. I pray...

I'm heavily grieved by it myself personally. I know as Christians we are going to see things differently from one another. Our priorities, our experiences, and even our place in the body. (The hand may feel something as being quite nice to the touch while the nose is able to detect an offensive...

Hi Kcnalp, Thanks for your reply. While I really appreciate you engaging in the conversation - it would be helpful if you could post a little more information in regards to what the verse your posting is in response to, or clarify. It's just that I'm left confused wondering if you're posting...

Hi Apak, Thanks again for your replies... Respectfully, I don't see scripture being silent. We see many times them submitting to authorities and not resisting. Peter getting whipped. Paul and his actions towards his prison guards, etc. In fact - the times when they were delivered - it wasn't...

This is a verse that is very close to my heart at the moment. I catch myself occasionally thinking of what I would be like if I was one of those Christians beheaded recently in the middle east or similar. My heart's desire is that I would be able to look my capture/killer in the eye, tell them...
