******* Atheists don't give two cents for any logical interpretation of Biblical scripture. All they care is to denigrate the Word of God. Any attempt to explain anything about the Bible or the sincere Christian walk of discipleship to such people is a total waste of time. Even the most...

The lesson from Job is; God's actions in our lives are none of our business. That He is gracious and often teaches us the reasons for such actions does not qualify us to expect He will always do so. The primary attitude for a spiritual man is to trust and obey - as in the words of the famous...

*** This is nothing more than Catholic bashing. Well written, well documented, but totally erroneous. The anti-Christ will not be the bishop of Rome. Dump your bias in the toilet where it belongs and look elsewhere for the demons you fear. He who swears falsely and uses vain words to...

The traditional term is 'sanctification' meaning separation unto God. The born again individual is to be conformed to the image of Christ. In doing so, certain things must be added to or cut away from the life of the new creature in Christ. Unpleasant experiences may not always be...

*** I wanted to respond to your post here because I agree with all the others who state that #4 is the only true statement in the list. The Holy Spirit is a person. While your definition of the term person is very erudite (and I have no problem with it whatsoever), I would like to submit to...

***** Good post, Veteran. Unfortunately, sound doctrine does little to instruct those who have chosen to believe a lie. The rapture folk prefer Star Trek fantasies and doctrines of demons to logic, studied analysis of scripture and traditional interpretations. While the Bible is quite clear...

There are two basic reasons why people lose their faith. One is that faith is mostly expressed as an intellectual persuasion, not as a relationship with the living God. As a subjective persuasion, faith is thus subject to change brought about by a superior argument or adverse circumstances...

I feel a necessity to object to this 'study'. AndyBern began by raising an important question that needs to be seriously addressed. How many will obtain the second birth rather than simply fill out membership cards? The Bible says nothing about salvation being related to filling out...

This sort of rubbish is a clear example of how heresy gets started. It isn't about trees, horse---, its about redemption. Redemption is based upon the blood of Christ - not tree sap. And if you'd read the last chapter of the Bible, you'd learn that the tree of life reappears on the historic...

Who has the power? Really? The Bible does not indicate anywhere that any individual has any special powers to administer what are called the sacraments. Yet wars have been fought over it. The matter is simply an argument over arrogant priestly authority, which exists not at all in...

The media is having a field day with the Zimmerman acquittal. I notice, though, that when OJ Simpson was acquitted everything was fine and dandy. The bottom line here is that Al Sharpton and company are drinking Treyvon Martin's blood. They're like vultures dining on roadkill and are taking...

"If there is a decay of conscience, the pulpit is responsible for it. If the public press lacks moral discernment, the pulpit is responsible for it. If the church is degenerate and worldly, the pulpit is responsible for it. If the world loses its interest in Christianity, the pulpit is...

Religious rule will continue in Egypt, it just won't be the same flavor as that which was sponsored by the FUKUS* alliance. We're all seeing demonstrations and public rhetoric stating that Obama was responsible for the Muslim Brotherhood's rise to power in Egypt. To be fair, it wasn't all...

The dispensationalist rubbish forced upon gullible American protestants by John Nelson Darby in the mid 19th century continues to this day despite the march of history, the persuasion of logic and the cautions of Holy Writ. Because of the so called popularity of this bogus fiction, millions...

One needs to be cognizant of the times in which we live. I once was given the task of instructing a new employee in the operation of a major piece of equipment. During the time we spent on the job I was told, despite my expressed wishes to the contrary, how to mount a sheep. These are...

I used eSword on my PC, but since I bought a MACmini it can't be used. Has anyone found a good Bible software for the MAC?

There is more going on here than American politics or international religious competition. The insidious insinuation of Islam into the lives of a world gone mad with corruption, spiritual and sexual debauchery and the endless pursuit of profit is the result of a bankrupt civilization and...

I think I'm getting pretty sick and tired of having the word 'hypocrite' associated so freely with 'Christian'. And I think I'm finished admitting that any Christian isn't perfect. WE ARE perfect! In Christ we are. If God does not hold us to blame for anything, then who else is able to do...

It isn't always about the woman - except that modern American culture would have us believe we ought to worship her. It isn't always about the man either - except when it comes to blaming someone for family problems, then its always the guys fault. A marriage is about a three way tie. I'm...

Wow! I do agree with that statement. The old testament is a clear example and history of corporate salvation. If you wanted to be saved in those days, you had to be a Hebrew/Jew. The old testamant changed all that. Salvation became personal on the cross. The problem with today's...
