Very fair and unbiased assessment. I have not met anyone that thinks Republican = Christianity. I know Christians that are much less comfortable with the Democratic agenda than the Republican one, although the Republicans for some reason seem to be working hard to push Christians away.

How does a "modern independent westerner" differ from a modern independent easterner? Does one have to be ruled by a King in the flesh to understand Christ as King? Before Christ, aren't we all our own king, anyway? Don't you think that the Holy Spirit teaches a new Christian quite well what...

One of the 10 commandments is "Thou shalt not commit adultery". I think we would all agree that this commandment is speaking of physical adultery and a Christian is obeying this commandment when he refuses to commit physical adultery. Exo_20:14 Thou shalt not commit adultery. To my knowledge...

How do we keep the Sabbath then? Obviously, no one keeps it like they were taught to keep it in the OT so where is the transition teaching from the OT to the NT that tells us how it has been modified? Can you exactly lay out the rules for keeping the Sabbath? And which of the 3 Sabbaths are we...

Hey, is it ok if I esteem every day the same? Seems like it is ok with the Holy Spirit as he inspired Paul to write the following: Rom 14:5 One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day alike. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind. Rom 14:6 He that regardeth...

Glad you enjoyed it, brakelite. It's very thought provoking, isn't it?

A lot of things that I never thought would happen and are grossly unconstitutional are happening, today. So, never say never. I think a breaking point is not too far off in the future. Please remember what Jefferson said: "When government fears the people, there is liberty. When the people...

Yes, I am sure you are very convinced that you have explained yourself and that only 2 members (not 19) disagree with you. And your comprehension skills are amazing! You characterized what I said about the Mosaic Law, incorrectly. And finally yes, people are turned away from churches by tithing...

Writer and gay activist Frank Bruni wrote that “our debate about religious freedom should include a conversation about freeing religions and religious people from prejudices that they needn’t cling to and can indeed jettison, much as they’ve jettisoned other aspects of their faith’s history...

Will Muslim bakeries make a gay wedding cake? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RgWIhYAtan4&feature=youtu.be Please don't tell me that there isn't a concerted war against Christian businesses and churches. The anti-christian media will not pick up a story like this. What would happen if a...

Rocky, I think you may enjoy this read. Chicken Bones of Christian Thought Here is a "lead in". "Those of you who know me, and have listened to my teaching for a number of years now, or tried to read my writings, are quite aware that I am not really a Chicken Soup kind of fellow. I am...

My missions teacher in school (John Garlock) was the son of H.B Garlock who was translated across a river when cannibals were after him. Great book to read to your kids. http://www.amazon.com/Before-Kill-And-Eat-You/dp/0830739076/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top?ie=UTF8 In 1920, Henry B. (H.B.)...

It's really too bad you could not explain your view, period. And you keep changing your tune and running from your own words. And if God did not cancel His Tithe and Offerings Law then why doesn't the church keep it as He instituted it rather than keeping a perverted version of it? Where did...

Americans know that when the government gives you something, it is never free. Tax Exempt status, or having the status of a 501(c)3 organization is a privilege given by the US Government and not a right. The problem in America is that every time you apply for a so-called "privilege" from the US...

Have you ever read the Constitution or Bill of Rights? The law of which you speak does not exist. http://www.thepublicdiscourse.com/2010/10/1920/

Since Stan challenged me to go back through all the posts to see all the teaching on the Law of Tithing for NT believers, I did just that. I went back through all the posts to see if anyone actually tried to teach all of us "Tithing" 10% off the top of your income is a requirement of the law. I...

1Cor_5:9 I wrote unto you in an epistle not to company with fornicators: 1Cor_5:10 Yet not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or with idolaters; for then must ye needs go out of the world. 1Cor_5:11 But now I have written unto you not to...

Stan, Jim is absolutely right. You'd have to be blind not to see your real agenda is a divisive one. Come to think of it, that seems to be your modis operandi in many threads. But, let's just say you are being altruistic (and I am being very generous as you well know), this article explains...

When a teaching (How to Tithe) is built upon a false teaching (NT Law of Tithe and Offerings), you end up with another false teaching. The NT Law of Tithe and Offerings cannot be supported by anything in the Scriptures and consequently, "How to Tithe", cannot be supported. They are both false...

Everyone ignores the law of tithes and offerings in the OT, even you. I have never met anyone that kept them, not even the Jews, today keep them. They cannot, there is no temple. So, what law are you talking about and where might I find it? Show me the NT law that Christ and the Apostles want us...
