    Psalm 23

    Psalms 23 “The Lord is my Shepherd That's Relationship! I shall not want That's Supply! He maketh me to lie down in green pastures That's Rest! He leadeth me beside the still waters That's Refreshment! He restoreth my soul That's Healing! He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness That's...

    House Churches - Don't You Sometimes Wish We could Go Back To the Days Of Acts?

    Professing Christ or Possessing Christ. Amen. And maybe the quibbles and divisions between Christians will melt away. Who can afford to be a fractured family in times of hardship?

    House Churches - Don't You Sometimes Wish We could Go Back To the Days Of Acts?

    Yeah, that's funny. We hear stuff like that all the time. In homeschooling, the biggest question that people ask is, "What about socialization?" Well, what about it? There is bad socialization, too. I always say, "Yeah, we keep them away from bad socialization". And that is what we keep our...

    Are you a Whoever?

    I don't recollect for sure. They might teach childrens' church from time to time. Joel has a fairly high Sinciput, and his hair is obviously not lissotrichous and that could possibly contribute to his ability to employ hippopotomonstrosesquipedalian. Most of the time I reject his...

    Default Bible Version Now NIV

    Rex, That is awesome. I did not catch that before. Thank you very much. And thank you, Hammerstone. Really cool feature. I'm sure I will use another version sometimes if readability fits the occasion. I am not a KJV only, just a "preferred". I am a Holy Spirit Only, though. Don't like them...

    Hi from TX

    Hi there, welcome. I think this is one of the nicest forums there are. The mods are pretty hands off (understandable and patient) and people try to work things out fairly well. Not to say there aren't passionate posts, there are many. Axehead

    Default Bible Version Now NIV

    That would be cool if you could pick your own translation. That may take a bit of custom programming, though.

    Does God Love Sinners?

    Hi lesjude, I just wanted to comment that you don't seem to use the quote feature correctly because it is always hard to quote (and keep) what you say. That aside, I want to understand what you are saying and since you don't subscribe to Calvinism, I believe you. I think that is a demonic...

    Homosexuality

    I do agree with that, KCKID. God does not save organizations, He saved individuals that make up His Body. And who makes up His Body? Well, only He knows, but we have many hints in His word. 2Ti_2:19 Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that...

    Is homosexuality something God can redeem?

    SIM, the non-catholic canon of scripture did not come from the Roman Catholics. Christianity is 2000 years old, Catholicism is 1600 years old. The scriptures that came out of Antioch vs Alexandria were kept and protected by Christians. Protestantism was a reaction to break away from the Catholic...

    Identified With Christ

    Yes, that is how I was using it. But, I may be mistaken, I thought I was using regarding the body. An arm by itself is just an arm. But, by extension, the inner man also has members and that is a good point. Our soul needs to submit itself to the sanctifying work of the Holy Spirit.

    Are you a Whoever?

    I have the privilege of meeting with college kids and many have told me that when they first became Christians they did not know what Deeper Life in the Spirit was all about. But, by and by, the Lord drew them into deeper commitment (and every story is different). Who knows much about anything...

    Homosexuality

    I believe when the government decrees that 501c3 churches must hire "alternative lifestyle" people that it will open up the floodgates to Nambla (National Man Boy Love Association) and every perverse spirit imaginable including practicing pagans and satanists? For you Brits online, whatever...

    Homosexuality

    No, I was making the simple observation that many people do not know about this and surprised that not only do you know about the MCC and other GLBT fellowships. If you notice, SilenceinMotion attested to the fact that he did not know about it. How did I learn about it? In the 1980s, Dick...

    Homosexuality

    Very good, marksman. I have always understood saints (from scripture) to be the 'saved', the congregation of the righteous, the Church of Jesus Christ.

    God’s reasons for hiding spiritual truths in the Bible

    2Co_4:3 But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: Well, that makes sense!! This certainly doesn't sound correct. "If our gospel is hid, it is hid to them that are saved" 2Co_4:4 In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, (do you see a...

    Default Bible Version Now NIV

    Well, those that have the "Interpreter" residing within can always take comfort in the fact that even with many redactions, the gospels are reliable. I understand the motive to go with "easily understandable" versions rather than precise. We live in a dumbed down society. The KJV will actually...

    Why does the Good Shepherd hold a Rod in his hand?

    Heb 12:5 And ye have forgotten the exhortation which speaketh unto you as unto children, My son, despise not thou the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when thou art rebuked of him: Heb 12:6 For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth. Heb 12:7 If ye...

    Homosexuality

    I don't know about the others, but the MCC church in America is a "church" founded by Gays. You really know a lot about their community.

    House Churches - Don't You Sometimes Wish We could Go Back To the Days Of Acts?

    I too am blessed to be part of a house church. We alternate between 5 houses so as not to overburden anyone family. We usually spend about 5 hours together and have a "potluck" and fellowship afterwards. Friday nights we have a local fellowship of college kids over and they are loving the house...
