    FACTS ABOUT ABORTION

    Adam was made of dirt, but we are all made of dirt. Job confirms the Genesis account: “Behold, I belong to God like you; I too have been formed out of the clay." “The Spirit of God has made me, And the breath of the Almighty gives me life." Job 33 "Till I die I will not put away my integrity...

    FACTS ABOUT ABORTION

    John the Baptist was a unique and special creation of God. How soon before his birth was he filled with the Holy Spirit? Five seconds? Ten Seconds? He is the very entity to be filled with the Holy Spirit. Prior to that, God’s Spirit merely rested “upon” people.

    FACTS ABOUT ABORTION

    I am only going by what the Bible says. God creates abortions on a routine basis: spontaneous abortions, also called miscarriages. God has warned us that after being set free, the church will be invaded by those who desire to destroy that freedom by adding their own laws to ensure we are kept...

    What are Your Feelings on Tithes

    There is a vast gulf between some untrained chick fiddling around with a piano learning play by ear, i.e can't even read music! and and and organist who has spend over a decade studying to play the world's most challenging instrument, the organ; just as there is a vast difference between mere...

    FACTS ABOUT ABORTION

    Jim, your theology is entirely consistent with Scripture, which says: "If a man begets a hundred sons and lives many years so that the days of his years are many, if his soul is not filled with good and also that he have no burial; I say that an stillborn birth is better than he." Ecclesiastes 6:3

    FACTS ABOUT ABORTION

    Thank you for your opinion as to when life begins, but then there is God's opinion. Bible is very clear that life does not begin until a fetus is born, and God breathes into him the Breath/Spirit of Life. God is very specific as to when a fetus becomes a living being: “The LORD God formed the...

    What are Your Feelings on Tithes

    The Law of the Tithe gives us God's thoughts on the matter, and the Law of the Tithe is not something you will ever hear preached in any church. It is a three-year plan. For the first two years, it is to be set aside for a combination of family vacation and Thanksgiving: “You shall surely...

    What are Your Feelings on Tithes

    Whether a minister who occupies the pulpit, or the minister of music, i.e organist, choirmaster, et al. they deserve to be paid in accordance with their responsibilities. I don't know how much they are paid these days, but back 30 years ago, organists-choirmasters were paid $70,000 per year. It...

    FACTS ABOUT ABORTION

    Philip, Indeed, a civilization that murders it's own children is evil, but we are not discussing murder here, we are talking about aborting a fetus which has never had life, because it has never born. Murder, is the unlawful taking of life. You cannot murder something that has never been a...

    Did Jesus claim to be God?

    A fascinating passage of Scripture. Note that "male and female created he them." It does not state "male or female created he them." So, God created us to be bi-gender, i.e both male and female. Although I was born a male, God had not completed His creation process. That was accomplished when...

    Did Jesus claim to be God?

    "For a child will be born to us, a son will be given to us" Isaiah 9:6 You obviously have too much time on your hands!

    Did Jesus claim to be God?

    Thanks for your input, but the foundation of my beliefs will remain with Scripture, much like a husband and wife become ONE, a single unity which can never be separated.

    Fatal shooting of Rayshard Brooks

    Yes! "Operation and control of a vehicle while impaired".

    Did Jesus claim to be God?

    No they were One from the very beginning when the Word WAS God! The thing here is that we mortals will never be able to comprehend the nature of an infinite God. Job 38+ enters a dialog with God questioning God as to His nature, and God explains to Job, that he doesn't even understand the...

    Did Jesus claim to be God?

    I don't know anything about trinitarians who do not say the Son is the Father. I just go by what Jesus said: "I and the Father are one.” John 10:30. That says everything I need to know about the unified being of the Father and the Son.

    Did Jesus claim to be God?

    Before Jesus was born, the Angel Gabriel declared: “He will be great, and will be called the Son of the Most High; and the Lord God will give Him the throne of His father David;" Luke 1:32 And Isaiah declared: "For a child will be born to us, a son will be given to us; And the government will...

    ~ Good Bye Dear Friend Willie T. ~

    He is a Tennesee hillbilly . . . with his Doctorate! He has never lost his one-on-one interface with people. I always feel that it's just the two of us chatting. I have been an ardent student of Scripture for 65 years, but I have never heard a single sermon in which I didn't learn something new...

    ~ Good Bye Dear Friend Willie T. ~

    Once you get inland from the beaches, Pinellas is sort of a concrete jungle, unless you get all the down to Fort Desoto at the southern tip. Although we live near Toronto, it was normal for us to make the 2,000 km trip to sunny Florida during the winter months. My DIL's parents have a winter...

    A Faulty Narrative

    It all started waaay back in the Garden of Eden: "To the woman he said, “I will make your pains in childbearing very severe; with painful labor you will give birth to children. Your desire will be for your husband, and he will rule over you.”

    A Faulty Narrative

    I recall one of the Presidents addressing that. In his speech he said that he was aware of black families with 9 children, each one with different father, none of which were living at home. No one owes the black community anything. These slaves were bought a fair market value, so they owned the...
