    Sabbath-Keeping

    Just some thoughts Brothers and Sisters. The institution of a Sabbath rest for Adam, Eve, and their descendants, was instituded within the context of a perfect, unveiled relationship between God and humanity. Adam and Eve had not sinned nor had death entered the world. There was definately...

    Three Days and Three Nights

    Rstrats, re: "What is the difference between a Jewish calendar week and a Gregorian calendar week? They both consist of seven days." Both have seven days, but the beginning of each day's 24 hours is different. A day on the Gregorian calendar begins at midnight, where a day on the Jewish...

    Is it possible to 'hate the sin and love the sinner' without being a self righteous jerk?

    Wormwood, I don't want to speak for Aspen. I may have missunderstood him myself. I thought he was referring to the way we as Christians can come across as self-rightous when we see the sin in another person's life and try to tell them what they need to do to fix themselves, as if we have it...

    Non Christians who have positive NDEs

    I wonder how much of a person’s memory is involved in these NDEs? I mean even most atheists know quite a bit about Christianity. I know a lot of people who talk about hearing about something in the morning and then dream about it the same night; I have had those kind of experiences my self. If a...

    Marriage under false pretenses

    Geshem, I personally know four couples who fit two of the scenarios you mentioned. All of the couples were made up of people who said they were Christians before they were married; all ended in divorce. The thing that was consistent in all of those relationships was that none of them really...

    Chat?

    How does the chat work? I have seen some members say that they only had to make 10 posts and they could access the chat. I've made more than ten posts, but everytime I go to the chat no other names show up. Is there a specific time the chat is available? I've checked every day, at different...

    Is it possible to 'hate the sin and love the sinner' without being a self righteous jerk?

    For the last 10 years of my life, I have been purposful in looking for the good that God is doing in someone's life, and to affirm it. I think our auto pilot setting, as humans, is criticism and skepticism. One version of 1 Corinthians 13 says, "love hopes all things". If we've been filled with...

    Version Smursions?!

    LightTheWay, I learned to read from a KJV Bible, when I was 4 and 5 years old. By the time I was 15 I had at least 8 different versions of the Bible, including two in Spanish. Just like those who argue about whether or not the KJV Bible is the only inspired English version or not, so too do...

    Remarriage after a divorce.

    When we consider God's responce to His unfaithful bride, even if we have a legitimate reason for divorce, should we get one? I mean the Israelites pretty much slept with their lover in front of the groom, on the wedding day, and throughout history, God's people, both Israelites and Gentiles have...

    Gaming - Your views (PC, Xbox, Ps3)

    Sojourner4Christ, Please forgive my misunderstanding about your specific calling. Still, even a prophetic calling works in the context of the Body. I believe that the words "recreation" and "play" are synonyms, "passtime", "repose", "relaxation", and "refreshment" are others I could have...

    Gaming - Your views (PC, Xbox, Ps3)

    sojourner4Christ, No stroking or patronizing intended here. Zechariah 8:1-15 In this passage two of the blessings God intends for His people are: 1. Children recreating 2. The elderly recreating The word for "play" in verse 5, has many negitive definitions, but it also has many positive...

    Sabbath-Keeping

    Enquirer, It took less than a year for the people of Israel to fall into apostasy. Even after seeing the plagues, the cloud by day, the fire by night, the mountain on fire, the sound of the trumpet, the quail, the manna, the water from the rock (twice), they still worshiped idols and turned...

    It's green and sits right over my friends list, It started out with the number zero. Yesterday it had the number one, and today it has a two by it.
