    Tempted to curse God

    My wife suffers from seborrhea dermatitis. We could not afford the prescribed medicated shampoo which cost about $250.00 for 8fl. ounces. We settled for over the counter product called DHS shampoo. It comes with zinc or tar. She has used the zinc with moderate success and advises to use it...

    Be a sinner and sin boldly

    Finally some semblance of sanity. BTW it was Luther's work on translating the Scriptures into the German language so that the everyday people could understand it that freed their Church from the tyranny of so called 'oral' tradition of Rome which included the Pope being the Vicar of Christ...

    Tending the Garden

    U-Tube? It has it's own pollution issues :blink:

    Do we need theocracy?

    Church and State should work together as spirit and body (respectively). Each has it's function. The nature of the State is secular just as the nature of the body is 'feed me'. The problem occurs when one (Chuch/State) ignores or tries to dominate the other,

    When Jesus says...

    God is the 'first mover' in sanctification whereas Prentis leaves me with the impression that God will act only if man acts first. But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the...

    Christmas Isn't Over

    I hear Passion and Resurrection songs all year in Church and on the radio, so why not songs/hymns/chants etc. on the Incarnation?

    Tending the Garden

    Is environmentalism not a Christian issue? Not directly. Hearts cleansed by the Blood of Christ is a Christian issue. The environment is a governmental issue and yet to the extent the Gospel has salted a culture there will be a respect for God's created order.

    Is God punishing me?

    Eventually if allowed the time nearly all Christians suffer (at least) one physical affliction or another. For the most part it is a result of the Fall from which we await the redemption of our bodies in pure health.

    Do you hope you are good enough?

    There are also those who say 'I know salvation is a free gift, but I only hope I can endure in order to make it in'. Then there are those who don't see the oxymoron in the above statement. To those of you who persist in false humility by adding your own efforts to the salvation given by...

    When Jesus says...

    Paul's emphasis was for Christ to be all in all .Your emphasis, Prentis is on the word 'YOU'. Read your last line which is typical..." You made a first step to follow? Good for you... What are you doing today? What are you doing NOW to give yourself to the service of the Lord?" Paul most...

    Sexual Immorality What is is?

    Here is one passage... Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body. What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? For ye are...

    When Jesus says...

    As I am saying, Christ in us is the Great treasure Who is all in all in which the fulness of the Godhead dwelleth bodily. THIS, every believer has...an unspeakable gift. If you think there is something greater outside of Christ...go for it! To whom God would make known what is the riches of...

    When Jesus says...

    Prentis perhaps someday you will find yourself in the age of grace where Paul reveals to the Church/Christ's Body such gems as... For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power: (Col 2:9-10) With all...

    How are we saved from sin? Christ and Him crucified/risen.

    When Jesus says...

    No more than this passage...Sell that ye have, and give alms; provide yourselves bags which wax not old, a treasure in the heavens that faileth not, where no thief approacheth, neither moth corrupteth. (Luk 12:33) This is a command of Jesus to his little flock. Are you doing it Prentis...

    Coping with unsaved loved ones.

    Informer, I like your first part, "God´s Word tells us that every man shall bear his own burden,"...that's food for thought.

    God covers us with His righteousness:

    I wasn't quoting Luther. Quotations " like this" are required. I was commenting on what Luther said. "So when a little heat is applied the whole thing stinks to high heaven." Problem is Luther did not say that. That part was probably added by his detractors e.g. the Papists. They hated the...

    Coping with unsaved loved ones.

    Logabe, I will have to take a moment from my mourning to address your post. Though I appreciated the other posts I can't let yours pass carte blanche. Your explanation makes the death of Jesus unnecessary and as such is an affront to the Faith. He suffered the pangs of hell on the cross...
