"I never saw a U-Haul behind a hearse." -Billy Graham

I Never Saw a U-Haul Behind a Hearse... A dying man gathered his pastor, doctor and attorney at his bed side and handed each of them an envelope containing $1M in cash. He made them each promise that after his death and during his repose, they would place the three envelopes in his coffin. He...

@Micah , no answer (no matter how Biblically sound it might be) will settle the unrest that you are experiencing in your soul. You should seek professional psychiatric help & seek out a church that is good with dealing with such issues. These USA churches are good at dealing with mental...

Preach it, sister!

The reason why Peter had a sword in the Garden of Gethsemane was because Jesus told him to bring it. (It just wasn't the appropriate time to use it.) (Here's your opportunity...) "Then He said to them, 'But now, he who has a money bag, let him take it, and likewise a knapsack; and he who has...

Oh, yes, they do. A Christian police officer who kills in the line of duty is an example of Romans 13:4, "For he is God’s minister to you for good. But if you do evil, be afraid; for he does not bear the sword in vain; for he is God’s minister, an avenger to execute wrath on him who practices...

Temple Grandin likes to say that a little autism is a good thing.

The way Jesus taught that parable, I'm not sure that you could even if you wanted to. He said that their lives were so intermingled with those of true believers, that you couldn't reject the former without isolating/neglecting the latter. Like if a couple was mixed or a family was divided. And...

God says that the "death penalty" will be the norm, but He is able to maneuver past that if He is so inclined [Acts of the Apostles 12]. "Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by God...

The charismata are higher than just personal skills.

"But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have." 1 Peter 3:15 NIV

I don't think that we are on the same page there. Since small-e evangelist is not listed as a specific gift, you cannot make it into one just to fuel the argument of this thread.

Small-letter "prophet" is a gift. Small-letter "evangelist" is not.

You are making the distinction between evangelist & Evangelist, which is comparable to prophet vs. Prophet. Though a fair point, I am sure that God wants us all to be evangelists, even if we are not all Evangelists.

"Now the doings (practices) of the flesh are clear (obvious): they are immorality, impurity, indecency, idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, anger (ill temper), selfishness, divisions (dissensions), party spirit (factions, sects with peculiar opinions, heresies), envy, drunkenness...

In one fashion or another. (I am an introverted autistic, so I wear it differently than a more extroverted believer might. I can still pass out tracts, etc.) The office of Evangelist does so on a larger scale, but even they have co-workers who are doing so at the one-on-one level. No. "God has...

Truth, at its core, does not change but the whole point sanctification is that we are constantly being realigned with the image of Christ [1 John 3:2]. "Beloved, now we are children of God; and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be, but we know that when He is revealed, we shall be like...

As a concession, it is flat on the weekends... :p I subscribe to Kenotaxy (a.k.a. Dormant Gap) it is a slight variation of YEC.

No, it just means that they are more grounded...!
