    Denominational Buffet

    Brother Mike, We don't speak in tongues in the way that you mean. My priest is from Ecuador and he speaks 7 different languages. I speak only two different languages. We view everything in the Bible as important because the whole Bible is the word of God, not just certain parts of the...

    Denominational Buffet

    The question I ask is how do you settle the many disagreements that you have in a non-denominational church when all of them are claiming to have the Holy Spirit? God did not create more than 30,000 different interpretation of His Word because there is only one Truth. But how do you settle...

    Denominational Buffet

    Hello Pastorlesofm, Even in this non-denominational forum, you have Christians interpreting the same bibilical scripture differently, and I'm sure these Christians would all say that they have the Holy Spirit in them. For example, in just one thread someone posted about keeping the Sabbath...

    Denominational Buffet

    Hello Pastorlesofm, But there are a lot of people who say that they have the Holy Spirit in them, and still you get different interpretations. So, how can one know for certain who is correct? The fact that there are over 30,000 different Christian sects is evidence that Scripture is...

    Wisdom

    Hello Lookin4wardtoHeaven, These are beautiful words from the Bible! Thank you for sharing them. I would also like to add that there is a big difference between human wisdom and divine wisdom. Divine wisdom comes fromthe Holy Spirit and this is what King Solomon prayed for. Wisdom is...

    Forgiveness

    Hello Jiggyfly, That is not what Scripture says. When St. Paul says that every knee will bow and pledge allegiance to God, he was saying it to the Christians. He wasn't speaking to the fallen angels and he wasn't speaking about fallen angels. And when St. Paul stated that God made peace...

    Forgiveness

    Hello Judd, Christ came down to the earth to save fallen man. He didn't come down to save fallen angels. The angels were created as spirit beings who were already living in Heaven. They already knew what Heaven was like; therefore, it is difficult to imagine how any angel would want to...

    When Did Nakedness Become A Sin?

    That is not quite true. There are cultures in Africa and in the Pacific islands that were not touched by western civilization that go about nude. Women in the island of Yap, for example, walk around bare-topped in their village, and there is no lust among the men of the villages. The ones who...

    Roman Catholicism Is Blasphemy

    No, the Pope doesn't have a website of his own where he puts all his homilies. All the homilies of the Pope would be found under the website of the Roman Catholic Church. Popes feel that they are not special to have their own websites. As Pope Benedict XVI had to constantly remind himself...

    Roman Catholicism Is Blasphemy

    Hello Brother Mike, The Pope does preach. Below is a website of Pope John Paul II's World Day for Peace speeches from 1979 -2005. His speech is available in English and in different languages. My link The current Pope also has homilies, which are published in a Catholic website. You ask...

    Roman Catholicism Is Blasphemy

    Hello Templar, Infallibility deals only with the doctrines of faith and moral teachings. If the Pope says that black is white, it would only make him a liar, and as I said in my previous post, the Pope is a sinner like all of us. He is not perfect. So, if the Pope says that black is white...

    When Did Nakedness Become A Sin?

    Hello Brother Mike, I think you misunderstood. No one here said that it was okay to run around naked. God created man and woman naked and the human body is beautiful and good to God. Therefore, nakedness was never a sin. Because the human body is considered beautiful and good to God, it...

    Roman Catholicism Is Blasphemy

    Hello Brother Mike, There are no diffrent types of Catholic. All Catholics are one. A person who does not follow the teachings of the Catholic Church is not a Catholic and can be excommunicated by a Bishop or even the Vatican. There was a Catholic priest in Massachusetts who preached...

    When Did Nakedness Become A Sin?

    Nakedness is not a sin and it never was. Before they ate the fruit from the tree of knowledge of good and evil, Adam and Eve were naked. At that time, they looked at each other with love. They saw each other as a husband and a wife should - that they are a beautiful gift to each other. They...

    Roman Catholicism Is Blasphemy

    Papal infallibility has always been misunderstood. It doesn't mean that the Pope is impeccible. The Pope is a mere man just like everyone else. He is a sinner like everyone else. Being a Catholic, I adhere to the teachings of the Catholic Church.

    Judas' Fate

    The Bible says that Judas went to his own place (Acts 1:25). That doesn't really tell us anything. It is not for us to determine it anyway. Yes, Judas betrayed Jesus, but so did all the rest of the Apostles. They were no better than Judas. Where were the rest of the Apostles when Jesus was...

    The Catholic Church

    Hello Jiggyfly, According to Webster's Dictionary, the word "pray" actually comes from a latin word that means "to ask." Let's say that you are ill and not feeling well. So, you ask your friends on earth to pray for you. And when your friends pray to God on your behalf, they are asking God...

    The Catholic Church

    When you ask someone on earth to pray for you, are you also not putting them between you and God? Do you believe that the souls who now share eternal life with Christ in Heaven are dead? Are you saying that God does not use human beings to carry out His will? When the sacred authors wrote...

    The Catholic Church

    My brother, you may once have been a Catholic, but apparently you have not read the Catechism of the Catholic Church. While some members of the Church may have condemned other denominations, (remember...we are also sinners) this is not true of the teachings of the Church itself. The Catechism...
