This may be a little off the subject, but it reminds me of something my pastor shared with our church that was so interesting! He told us that when a Jewish guest in a home finished his meal, if he folded his napkin, handerchief, etc. a certain way, that meant he enjoyed the meal and that he...

Interesting input! You haven't missed anything. It's not my cup of tea, either.

I've really been thinking and praying about what you said, topcat. This was an impression put upon my heart. It may have been for me, or it may have been for both of us. It could have been for a reader here. I'm not sure, but please do not take anything offensively, because I don't know you or...

Hey ya'll. I'm off today due to Mardi Gras. We always have that on our school calendar-2 days off. I haven't been in years! I was just wondering if anyone on this site had ever experienced it? It's quite a sight to see! I'm not talking about a good sight either! When I was a teenager, I went...

This is a neat thread! It needs to be picked up again. Could we make it a top 5? 1.Kriss-very forthright, yet kind; serious on this site2. Sealed Eternal-great zeal, knows scripture3. Dr. Bubba Love- well-studied in Biblical things4. Thunder 1-kind-hearted, positive5. follower of Christ- I like...

Could I ask a question? I am very interested to know if there are any particular groups of Christians that believe this doctrine of hell as it is new to me. I am not being disrepectful to anyone. I know it seems to be a worn-out discussion, but it really is very serious to a non-believer looking...

I don't teach it as Science, per say, but rather I say that Scientists say this is what they have researched and believe to be true. They believe there is evidence that the earth is billions of years old,etc. But, I do think it's okay to tell them that it may not line up with what we're taught...

This is a very admirable goal. I know I waste money that could be helping others. It is a big task, but maybe the Lord gave you this for a reason. He is so awesome and great enough to work it out through faithful followers. Let me know if I can help. I am willing to send some money at times...

That was neat! I had no idea where the "mind your P's and Q's came from! I always wondered what it meant.

Thanks, Siskim. I needed that today. It's His By Grace, and I am a woman that teaches grade 2. I still think it's important to instill in these little ones that I believe God made them, the animals, the dinosaurs, etc. I greatly appreciate your taking the time to share kindness with me. May you...

Hello to all. I have to admit that I feel that I have been shot with a stun-gun. I am just reading all of the posts on this site. To Denver, I would first of all like to say, I'm so sorry. I will not continue to post on this site if that's what you would like. I don't know that I have ever been...

Hi, Kim. I do see where you are coming from. It's okay to admit that there is some evidence that things are found in nature and make us wonder about the past. Sometimes these things don't seem to be addressed completely by Christians. They want to turn a deaf ear and blind eye. I think the truth...

Greetings, Denver. I noticed that you are quoting mostly OT scriptures and it was believed by many OT people that death was just "sheol" or a falling asleep with nothing more to come. That was the argument among the Sadducees (saying there was no resurrection) and the Pharisees (believing there...

I checked on the lastdaysministries.org site and the article is called "Why You Shouldn't Date or Marry An Unbeliever". It's an interesting article, as many of them are on this site. It's coming from the perspective of 2 people who searched a long time to find the Lord and boy when they did...

Okay. Thanks DrBubbaLove. Now I am seeing it more clearly. I just didn't see where he was going with it. To me, it's pretty obvious what the scriptures are saying. Why do we try to fancy it up so much? That's where we get in trouble with trying to make things be literal vs. figurative. It's best...

You know, atheist, it's fine to present your side, but where is the kindness and love in your life? How do you feel about others? Do you have a love for anyone on this site? Do you care to read any of the prayer requests or deep hurts? Or, are you just here to state your facts and ask questions...

Remember how when Jesus died they were having to hurry and take His body down from the cross along with the other criminals, so as not to do any work on the Sabbath? Then on the 3rd day when He arose, many Christians called that the Lord's Day. That is the reason we started celebrating in...

I'm sorry, but I don't understand your post. Could you explain it further? It is my understanding that the Bible says the body will be joined with the spirit(1Thes.4:14-17) and then in Revelation it further discusses what goes on with bodies; some being eaten by birds; some being tortured; some...

inhislove, I'm glad faithful made you feel better, because what he said was true. But, don't stop looking for ways to speak the truth in love in regard to the future too; especially if she opens up to you. People who are trying to convince themselves of a truth are often difficult to convince of...

Great advice; especially from Franklin. Coming from a woman's perspective, I know that the Lord's desire is for our homes to stay together if at all possible. We made a covenant and should honor our commitments. We make it too easy these days to get out of marriage because it becomes a hassle or...
