Maybe part of learning to have the Godly speech is going through a time where you just have to bite your tongue a lot. Then, you can learn to speak in an edifying way.

Thank you. I'm glad you don't feel defensive when I share. I had a lot of church frustration to let go of. My goal is to remain grounded and sincere, even if I am attacked. Jesus loved his enemies too. That doesn't mean they weren't enemies but we are to do good to all. I don't want Christian...

Really cool. My husband and I both changed our position on marriage permanence studying this. We see marriage as one flesh for life---meaning separation and divorce are options but Christians should not remarry if their first spouse is still alive. I don't think it matters if they weren't...

That is okay. Im starting to think I need to focus on being more loving in conduct and not just supporting correct head knowledge if the faith. I often value knowledge over love and I see that as a weakness in my faith. Maybe it might come across fake but I do appreciate the way you've...

1 Timothy 1:5 5 Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned:

Ooh! This looks way better than watching couples hunt for Tiny houses

Interesting read. Thanks.

I guess I do see the devil as weak if you're in Christ. 1 John 5:18 King James Version 18 We know that whosoever is born of God sinneth not; but he that is begotten of God keepeth himself, and that wicked one toucheth him not.

Sorry you feel empty. I remember it feels awful and I hope it passes soon for you.

I like this. Scripture says knowledge puffs up but love edifies. Theology can give us knowledge. But knowing about water is not the same as drinking it.

Some sins are unto death and some aren't. 1 John 5:16 King James Version 16 If any man see his brother sin a sin which is not unto death, he shall ask, and he shall give him life for them that sin not unto death. There is a sin unto death: I do not say that he shall pray for it.
