    hey everyone

    Glad you're here. It is interesting at times; sometimes a little strange! I hope you are blessed because you found this site. "... pleasant words increase learning." Proverbs 16:21

    genesis question...

    Well, you made it important (LOL) and besides, it is pretty interesting reading. I have many times read these passages and wondered the same thing. I think it's great that you didn't mind asking. After all, the Bible does say, "Ask and keep on asking!" I enjoyed reading what Kriss wrote because...

    What the resurrected saints were doing during the 3 burial days of Jesus

    I thought I would ask anyone who has ever pondered this thought or heard anything about it to share the wealth of knowledge. Some friends and I were recently discussing the graves that burst open and the saints being resurrected. This is at the end of Matthew's gospel. Anyway, it reads in such a...

    Heaven scares me

    I don't wish to offend, but I just don't agree. I would have to be won over by much more than the reference you provided. It sounds like an opinion and should be presented as such. There is no basis to believe this, except for a scriptural interpretation that doesn't really say this. I'll ask...

    Heaven scares me

    I know this has taken somewhat of a different turn, but something bothers me. Jesus said in scripture to let the little children come unto Him for such is the kingdom of heaven. I take that to mean that the kingdom of heaven is made up of children and adults. I know he could have been referring...

    Message in the stars

    Yes, I'm in total agreement with you about creation of the stars, using the names of the constellations (not the same as zodiacs as these are more fortune-telling symbols), and the star being used as a sign to point the wise men to the Christ child. I guess it's all a matter of context. I just...

    Just the facts on SB 777

    Well, I certainly am getting an eyeful!!! This has been an educational day. I am going to pass this info. along to my friend, Tony Perkins, who happens to be over the Family Research Council in Washington, D.C. because this is soooo worth checking out. Our nation is in a scary place to say we...

    Have any of you ever considered...

    Thank you for your kindness. Oh, but my love for the Lord does come out toward others. It helps me to love my husband, even when he may do unlovely things. (Ex. Scripture says, "A soft answer turns away wrath.") It helps me to love my family because I can better see their needs as I pray for the...

    I've lost my faith

    Maybe by saying "No debating" they mean they don't want the nasty arguing that can occur in debates. People can get really mad and use heated language that's not appropriate for Christians. By calling it discussions, it keeps it to a more calm demeanor. I would like to say that there is no way I...

    Meditation, is it associated with the devil?

    Please accept my apology if anything I said offended you. I want you to know that was not my intention at all. I just wanted to help. I'm truly sorry if there was something that struck you wrong. I hope something I said was helpful.

    How to deal w/abuse?

    Hi. My first question to you is: Are you a member of a local church? I cannot tell you how valuable that has been in my life when I have had situations come up. I could not have very easily dealt with things on my own. My pastor has helped me get Christian counseling and the church even helped...

    Message in the stars

    I didn't hear/see this, but I would be leary of anyone connecting zodiac signs/symbols with Biblical truth. You know a good site for you to contact on this subject would be perrystone.org. He does a lot of in-depth studies on Old Testament and New Testament correlations with occurrences of today.

    Meditation, is it associated with the devil?

    Dear Follow Christ, You seem to have a yearning to know the Lord;such an honesty and openness to ask questions and admit views whether right or wrong. That's a good quality. Before we can ever come to know Christ, we have to be real with where we are. We have to come like we are and see...

    Heaven scares me

    I would like to discuss heaven. Although there have been many to make heaven out to be a bunch of floating clouds, Jesus didn't explain it this way. When we see how He explained it, He said He was going to prepare a place for us that has many mansions (some interpret as rooms)-John 14:2. He said...

    Have any of you ever considered...

    I think anyone that hasn't questioned their own existence and the world around them at one time or another just isn't being truthful. It's our nature to wonder about things. But your other caring friends above have given some good food for thought. I like when anyone tells someone to get alone...

    My meeting with Jesus

    OOops! I should have put 2 Corinthians 10: 3 and 4. I'm sorry!Of course it wouldn't hurt us to read 3 and 4 too.

    My meeting with Jesus

    Wow! It sounds as if you have been allowed to see the spirit world that is totally scary for most human eyes. For the Bible clearly tells us that our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but it is a spiritual battle we're in (Ephesians 6:12). We are told that though we walk in the flesh we...

    New and needing a bit of advice

    Hey, Sara. You will never regret having Jesus as your Savior. Be well-grounded in His Word (the Bible). Never take anyone else's word as truth. Always study to show yourself approved (2 Tim. 3:16) so you will know what Jesus thinks and feels. That is the only way to get to know the heart of God...

    A Louisiana " Hi Ya'll! "

    I am so filled with joy to be a part of a Christian site that seems to be encouraging folks by bringing positive messages of hope to their lives about the only hope which is Christ! I am a 44 year-old second grade school teacher that also sings in a Christian group to minister to the body and to...

    Hoping to Strengthen what faith I still have

    Hi there. This is my very first day to read anything on this site and I can say that I am so touched already by what I have read. I can see why the Lord has lead me here. My soul purpose for wanting to join something like this was to see what is going on in the Christian community to make a...
