    Swearing.etc

    Using the name of God in ANY way other than praise is using it in vain. Also, anything that is not the truth is a lie. Still, I can understand not wanting to hurt someone's feelings. A woman asks her husband, "Honey, do these pants make me look fat?" Does he tell the truth? "Yes, they do. I...

    What happens when we die ?

    (DONNIE;46806) "No one has ascended into heaven but He who descended from heaven, the Son of man." (John 3:13 RSV) Up until Jesus rose from the dead no one had gone to heaven. The believers were in what was called Paradise--awaiting the Messiah.

    Is masturbation a sin?

    (Aleks_Kravchuk;46477) Masturbation is a sin.It is a sin that totally shoots down your spiritual level to the bottom. It does not bring you closer to God. Show scripture that says so. Otherwise, it's just an opinion. I do not believe masturbation is sin unless someone has sexual fantasies while...

    how to add picture image..

    That's still all gibberish to me. Do you realize that some of us have very little computer knowledge and just don't understand the technical stuff?

    Was Mary always a virgin?

    I believe that the main problem is that most people have never read the scriptures for themselves and allow someone else to tell them what they say. Unfortunately, they are too often listening to false teachers who speak lies and twist the scriptures to suit themselves. I have read the entire...

    An itchy ear

    My ears itch all the time and has nothing to do with wanting to hear anything. Sorry, couldn't resist being facetious. I know that the scripture reference to "itching ears" has to do with people wanting preachers to say things that please them. Don't preach on sin, hell, condemnation, but just...

    Are we destined to heaven or hell when we are born?

    (Semachiah;46305) Shalom,Rom 8:29 For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate [to be] conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren.The only thing this verse is telling us that is predestined is that are to be conformed into the image of The...

    Is it acceptable to question your faith?

    How about a fourth answer: "I have no idea, but I do it anyway."

    Is masturbation a sin?

    (Nyoka;46363) Thank you for the kind words. Many people have set ideas on these things but have NEVER been in a situation that tests their ideas - as my brother in law and yourself are. I believe that in a marriage situation there is a legitimate use for masturbation. If it is used outside of...

    To be a christian do I have to...

    Have you asked at the church about transportation? I've never been to one where there was no one willing to come and get you. If they're not, then that church isn't worth going to anyway.We are told in Hebrews 10:25 that we are not to forsake the assembling of ourselves together for fellowship...

    Was Mary always a virgin?

    Also, it says in Matt. 1:25 that Joseph "knew her not until she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name JESUS." Note the word "until". After Jesus was born, they did what all married folks do. Well, so do the unmarried ones, but that's beside the point.

    What do you all think of the pregnant man?

    She's not a man. She didn't have her sexual organs changed. All she did was to somehow grow a beard--with male hormones? She apparently got with a real man long enough to get pregnant, and now she has a "wife".

    Teacher keeps Bible, cites God-given rights

    I was in the high school dining room in the 60's when a teacher pushed a cart through the room and told us to put any Bibles we had on the cart, and they were confiscated. Before that time prayer and Bible reading were allowed in the school.
