    Infected With God's Spirit

    I wouldn't call it being "infected" as with an illness; I call it being "indwelt". He is the indwelling Teacher, Spiritual Guide, and Convictor of sin.

    I'm worried

    Why worry about those of us who believe that the church of Jesus Christ will be removed from earth just prior to the tribulation? Even if we're wrong, we wouldn't go through more than half of the tribulation since God's wrath is for unbelievers and not for believers. Also, what we believe about...

    Can Seals Be Broken?

    Man-made seals can be broken, but a seal made by God CANNOT be broken. The Holy Spirit is in me; I am in Christ, and He is in the Father. It doesn't get any more secure than that. :D

    What does the bible say about....

    We can know NOW that we have ETERNAL life. 1 John 5:13 says, "These things (the prior verses) have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God." We don't have to wait until we...

    Is it alright for Christians to get tattoos and body piercing?

    I have no idea if it's all right with God or not, but I find them mostly unattractive. God made the human body just as He wanted it.

    What will you do when you see Jesus?

    I assume that I will fall at His feet and worship Him.

    What are WE afraid of?

    I tend to be open about myself if anyone cares enough to ask, and sometimes I share info no one wants. I've gotten negative e-mails and PM's from guys--as well as propositions from guys. I don't know what there is about me that attracts these weirdos.

    Birth Control: Is It Christian?

    God said to Adam and Eve, "Be fruitful and multiply", but I don't think He expects people to bring children into the world when they aren't truly wanted and won't be loved and cared for as they deserve. I read today about a woman who left her baby in the car with the windows rolled up while she...

    Religion get in the way of faith?

    A lot of religions are man-made, and people trust in all kinds of things except for the One Who is THE Way, THE Truth, and THE Life. They want to add their own works that God does not accept as payment for sin. God rejected Cain's sacrifice the work of his own hands, but He accepted Abel's blood...

    Hello to all

    Welcome to the Christianity Board. Jesus didn't start a denomination; He just started a universal church of believers. Wherever we are in this world we are brothers and sisters in Christ; if we know Him as our Saviour.

    Greetings From Dave

    Welcome to the Christianity Board, Dave. That was the name of one of my brothers--half-brother actually; I'm not sure which half of him.

    Your Opinion On Atheists

    I don't trust anyone until they show me that they can be trusted. I have relatives that can't be trusted. I was warned today about someone I know who uses people and can't be trusted. I had a brother like that, and one of his sons took after him. I don't like people who use other people...

    Hello to all my new brothers and sisters...

    What does the bible say about....

    Once we are saved, we are never OUT of His family. We just lose fellowship with Him when we sin--until we confess and forsake that sin. It's the same as with our earthly father. We do something to warrant punishment, but we remain his child. When I was saved, I was given ETERNAL life--not...

    Misunderstanding...

    What about David's son who died because of David's sin? David was told by a prophet that the boy would die because of David. Sometimes, sickness and death (even of an innocent) is caused because of sin. Sometimes it has nothing to do with sin. I don't believe that God would take the child of a...

    Common Christian Couple Problems

    The most successful marriage and the happiest couple I've ever seen had learned this simple formula: (1) They both put Christ Jesus first in their lives. (2) He put his wife's needs and happiness ahead of his own. (3) His wife put her husband's needs and happiness ahead of her own. The result...

    Profile

    I moved to California December 2010 and forgot to change my location--not that it matters all that much.

    Can God trust you with his money?

    Only when obtaining money becomes more important than anything else does it become sin. Although I live in a 22-year-old RV, can no longer drive due to failing eyesight, and have to depend on others to take me wherever I need to go, I am rich in Christ. Yes, I would love to have a real house to...
