Hello @Saint of Light, yes, many unbelievers do consider that, if there is a God, He must surely be a Cosmic Sugar-Daddy of some sort :oops: Of course, all of us want all of the blessings that He has to offer, the problem is, few seem to want Him (as their Savior and Lord) as well! You are also...

Hello Meadow, first off, since I see that you are new around this place, welcome to CB :waves: As far as which denomination to attend/join, I would start by reading their SoF (Statement of Faith, also called a "Doctrinal Statement") to see what they hold to as most important about the Christian...

Hi Nancy, here's a happy schnauzer photo to go along with your love for the breed, as well the happy thread that we're posting in :)

Hello again Ghada, I have some comments and questions for you about what you said above, but I think that I'll wait until you answer the questions that I asked you in my first post (post #2), as your answers to those questions may change or even answer some of the questions that I have for you...

Trouble!! https://www2.cbn.com/news/cwn/ai-chatbot-preaches-church-germany-looks-unveiling-antichristbeast-system A universal "kill switch" has been suggested and may well prove to be necessary, because you never know :oops::eek: ;)

Hello Always Believing, I agree, as does the Bible and the whole of the historic Christian church, IOW, all of us, Catholic, Orthodox and Protestant. Here are some of the Scriptures that show us why the teaching of the sleep of the soul is considered to be heretical by one and all. Matthew 17 1...

Hello Matthew, that's true .. e.g. Luke 12:33-34. That is true too, until the end of the age anyway, when God will create a "new heavens" and a "new earth". No worries though, I'm sure that the treasures that we've stored up in the present heaven will be transferred to the New Earth :) That...
