I don't get it...if a person is weak, fails, falls, tries, is a screw up...but believes in Jesus and all that he said and did... Why would that person not be a Christian? Do we have to be perfect Christians to a tee to be a Christian? If so, that is new to me. Just sayin... Thanks

Oh. For this forum, then, I will call myself a Christian. I take things pretty literally, respect rules by nature...my understanding was the definition of a Christian, by Christians themselves was the Nicene Creed. Since I was called out on another forum (I keep the same name), for saying I was...

All I know is if you do not believe everything in the Nicene Creed you cannot call yourself a Christian...I have come to realize it is black and white...cuz no one else has come up with any new revised official Definition, right? And cuz there is one thing I don't believe...I just had to change...

Oh, Church of Christ? You may like the gracecentered forum...that's where I got banned from...and I had the most 'likes' per posts of anyone there...still...years later. Cuz, I started to grow in my understandings and it varied from the owners' view. Well, ya can't have THAT! ;) I even had a...

It worked for Howard Storm! An avowed and mean atheist...his words...the nuns at the University he worked at as an Art professor prayed for him for 12 years. He is now a pastor...his favorite nun came to visit him in the hospital...she basically said..It took long enough! Howard Storm can...

Wow, I never saw that verse before! :)

I'm with you. The words 'punish, condemn and God' in the same sentence do not jive with me. I still think this is on topic, re providence...

Hey...you stole MY line! *wink* That knowing is what gives me such freedom! Whether I hit my thumb with a hammer or what...it's ALL perfect. If anyone ever thought it wasn't and then got bummed? Well, guess what? Another perfect opportunity to practice what Jesus said...Give me your...

One single verse can set the course for our entire life, that is how powerful Truth is...would you like to share an example of one that you particularly love and has helped you? *smile* (This could go on for a looong time, LOL!)

Hey, girlfriend..xxxooo

Oh. Thanks.

Firstthings1st, Ok. But I couldn't stop with just the 1st ch. *wink* So may I ask again...what was it you wanted us to talk about? Thanks. I don't do well with mind reading in real life...and esp not on a forum...sorry. Hi Enoch...hiding in plain sight on other forums...hope all is wonderful...

I wasn't sure...did you want us to talk about steadfastness? It seems you placed a verse or 2 and left it at that. Lemme know what it is you would like. :) Thank you.

Hi, all great with me always...xo Could I tell you what I do...cuz we all have these little curve balls tossed at us at times. One - I control my stupid mind or thoughts that want me to feel 'bummed' in all those lovely different ways 'down' feels. I immediately talk to God...this is a must...

You may never know a more carefree person than myself. What is there EVER to be concerned about? God's got it all under control...hold His hand while walking thru the crowd...His got me covered in every way. Everything is perfect...even if to others it doesn't seem to be, because they don't...

'What is following Jesus look like?' This is exactly what it looks like for me. I follow what he said 100%, that is, for example: Do not worry, ever, never Be anxious for nothing (ok that was Paul) Give him my burdens...every last one Cast my cares, always Ask, believe, receive When asked to...

Well, I never opened the subject. Lol

Change your name to deepthinker. :) You see a dead person come in by way of a wall or locked door....the look on their faces would cause me to also say ..."Calm down, it's all cool, relax, be at peace." Yes, they were still filled with anxiety that they would be rounded up and be NEXT! Yikes...

Did you mean and all that it 'entails'? I don't have an opinion on this...should be an interesting topic tho! Welcome to the forum. :)

Or then there was the time when the economy was really in a recession..hit here more 2010... so after wondering if I should refinance my house...i decided instead to let God pay for it... I turned it over to Him instead...each month...I knew He would take care of it. i have brought up my $1000...
