Yes, Hidden, I do strongly believe academics has been so consistently criticized for being less important, because, as the unity brethren point out, knowledge puffs up but charity edifies. So, the importance then become community, the building of relationships, as opposed to taking on Christ's...

In my Bible reading today, I came upon a verse that reminded me of another passage. Psalms 45:8 which speaks of the fragrances of the garments of the Bride of Christ (truth). They "smell of myrrh, and aloes, and cassia..." In contrast, speaking of the strange woman in Proverbs 7:17, she states...

I read some weeks ago that White owns a $3M condo in Manhattan purchased after she folded her church in Tampa due to a financial situation which helped to cause her marriage breakup. That condo, as I understand it, was purchased from Trump, located in one of his NYC properties in which he had a...

Not everything we think is of the Lord actually is, either because it is being sought to be consumed upon our lusts, to profit in a way that is not the Lord's, it is not confirmed in Scripture, and/or it is not God's timing.

Lamentations 3:37 Who is he that saith, and it cometh to pass, when the Lord commandeth it not?

_____________________________ You seem to speak my language. Saved in '72, I have witnessed those is leadership roles be led more by the flesh than by the Spirit of God. The Bible tells us to know no man after the flesh, which, as some have taught, means we are not to notice the sin in...

Phineas Quimby's writings are entirely plagarized in the books of Mary Baker Eddy, the founder of Christian Science. That can be easily examined online. Word for word, she took from his pamphlets and books. She believed, as did those within the WOF group, that illness and other physical...

I have been dealing with health issues since I was 14. I am now 67. The number of healing lines I have stood in are countless. For years, I tried applying the methodologies of the prosperity gospel groups, trying to keep my confessions always perfectly spiritual, quoting verses, rebuking the...

I don't understand Trump's appointment of Paula White as his spiritual advisor. She and her last husband had a ministry here in Tampa called Without Walls, a totally TV oriented prosperity gospel based ministry. I just watched her walk up and down the stage declaring wherever she walks is holy...

That is so easy to say, "I've given it up," after he's taken millions. He can afford to run off now into whatever new identity he prefers, he's already rich.

My interest in music certainly includes light rock, although the majority of my listening over the past decade or so is spent mostly tuned to guitar fingerpicking/jazz instrumentals. Contemporary Christian music lost me a long time ago. And, because I don't attend a fellowship regularly, after...

I recall in the 70s when BJ Thomas recorded at least one Christian album that was well received. At a concert he put on in Jacksonville, he was preceded by Andre Crouch whose music everyone knew. We were well stirred by the time BJ Thomas walked on stage, anticipating more praise and worship...

Do you realize socialists have, for some time, infiltrated lots of religious assemblies? Just watch the Pope. He recently signed a one world religion agreement with an Islamic head. In fact, a number of so-called places of worship have completely turned their backs on Scripture as they celebrate...

A fundamentalist is a person who holds as literally to the Bible as possible. Of course, we know that if our eyes cause us to lust, we will not pluck them out, as Jesus recommended, so there remains a need to rightly dividing the word of truth among us all. They are, to a great degree...

I used to be young and very impressionable as a Christian. Fortunately, my salvation (justification) took place during a period when God was moving. In the late 60s, early 70s, a nationwide, very legitimate movement swept over this country bringing many people to the Lord and the baptism of...

So, you believe there actually was a talking serpent, and fire coming from serpents?

_______________________________ I can see why someone who has never read the Scriptures might ask himself what in the world all those hidden descriptions and phrases mean. We, who have been saved and have accepted their long-held meanings, breeze right by them, normally without question...

You must detest Ravi Zacharias then.

But, is the tongue truly on fire? Does a tongue catch fire in any passage within Scripture? Not hardly.

Certainly not cut it off.
