    Singing Ave Maria in church/home robs God's Glory?

    Hmmmm, check out http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blessed_Virgin_Mary_(Roman_Catholic). As far as I'm concerned, the term 'mother of God' is downright wrong. God is SELF-EXISTENT. He cannot have a mother. Through a miraculous conception, the Almighty God fused himself with humanity. The humanity was...

    Acts 19:1-6

    These were disciples of John. Paul found them, and explained the gospel to them. Notice where I highlighted in your text. Paul told them that John was pointing people to Jesus, and that was who they should believe on.

    Jesus stands at the cave entrance and coughs

    Well they're about to learn what a door is . . . . . :rolleyes:

    Singing Ave Maria in church/home robs God's Glory?

    Ummmmm, Mary, the mother of God. . . . not quite. There is NOTHING scriptural about this term. Look it up. Mary, the mother of Jesus is correct, but NOT the mother of God. I don't know what the big deal is about this. Scripture is clear that there is ONE mediator between God and man, Jesus...

    Why a man and a woman?

    Well, who created marriage then? EDIT: I certainly don't think man did it, cause right now, the 'in' thing is to sleep round casually, and if you get married, forget about the vows of 'I do' because we have lawyers who can tear those contracts up anyway. Marriage is just a way of saying you're...

    Have You Received The Holy Ghost ?

    I have received the Holy Ghost, with evidence of speaking in tongues. I've never danced or run around, but I have been slain in the spirit. All I can say is, if you don't want to start jumping up and down with excitement when you are worshipping God, then either your church is dead, you are...

    Jesus stands at the cave entrance and coughs

    Lol. I've already stated, that in explaining the Scripture, they could say, This is equivalent to you coughing before you enter your friend's house." I have no issues with that. I definitely wouldn't want to take the risk of changing the Holy Scripture. Also, if you keep reading in that verse...

    Why a man and a woman?

    Ok, aspen, define 'marriage' for me, ACCORDING to Scripture. Let me give you the most ancient definition of marriage: Gen 2:24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh. Tell me, WHO created the institution of marriage...

    Why a man and a woman?

    I'm not propagating a ban on homosexuality. I'm propagating NO homosexual marriage. There's a big difference. Marriage, in its honest sense, is an agreement between a man and a woman BEFORE GOD, to commit themselves to each other, whether it be arranged, through dating, or such. We've changed...

    Jesus stands at the cave entrance and coughs

    Lol. I understand what a camel through the eye of a needle means :). The Holy spirit will guide whoever seeks the truth to truth, no matter the language or obstacles. The only thing that can stop God's love, is ourself.

    Why a man and a woman?

    Well, i see where you're coming from, but I defer on these grounds: firstly, the majority of homosexuals are not quiet about their sin. They propagate it violently. Check out one interesting link http://www.jesus-is-savior.com/Evils%20in%20America/Sodomy/pederasts.htm. Now that wasn't actually...

    Why a man and a woman?

    I know there have been discussions like this previously, and believe me, I say this to the best intent, because I have quite alot of friends who don't see what's wrong with homosexual marriage. Let me explain why I believe it is wrong, and why EVERY true Christian should be opposed to homosexual...

    Jesus stands at the cave entrance and coughs

    No, but I don't think it would be that hard to explain to them the scenario . . . :) I would just explain to them that over where Jesus was, knocking on the door wasn't what a robber did, and that it was sort of like them coughing. I wouldn't actually change the Scripture. You can draw an...

    Why be a Christian??

    The sacrifices and offerings all pointed forward to when Jesus would come and be the ultimate sacrifice for our sin. Now you're probably wondering why so much blood? Blood was required because life is in the blood. Blood is life. Spiritual doesn't mean a thing in the end. Wonderous things...

    Christ's Christianity and Paul's Christianity are Not the Same

    Oh help me please . . . . Answer the two questions: Why did Jesus throw the moneychangers out of the temple? Shouldn't he have been 'loving' because they needed help? If Paul wrote the epistles himself, and being a sinner made mistakes, does that apply to Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John as well...

    Why be a Christian??

    Interesting thread . . . . so much conflict over it :P Forget about all the religions out there preaching their message. The Bible is what you should be looking at. And keep in mind, that the Bible can say just about anything you want it to say, as long as you make it. You need to let the...

    Why a man and a woman?

    Scripture please? :D

    Jesus stands at the cave entrance and coughs

    I think that to get the correct meaning, we need to look back to what Jesus was referring to in HIS day, not ours. See, back in his day, thieves in the night didn't come quietly. They came suddenly with lots of noise. Completely different to what we think today. The Bible shouldn't be changed...

    Christ's Christianity and Paul's Christianity are Not the Same

    I see that you've conveniently sidestepped my question: How is it that Jesus threw the moneychangers, etc out his temple? According to your philosophy, he shouldn't have done that because they needed help! What question? Paul himself answers that for you: "O wretched man that I am, who shall...

    I was asked to.....

    I would definitely sign it. Christians spend too much time trying to blend in. We're suppose to be cities on hills, lights in darkness, not flounders on the ocean bed . . . :D
