    Your opinion please!

    I have no problem with it. They are professional singers, that is the way they make their living. Well, I suppose i do have some problem with it when their singing ceases to be a ministry and becomes entertainment. I've been a soloist since I was a teen and have yet to make a living at it. Not...

    baptized-rebaptized?

    Baptism is necessary only once--AFTER one is born again. It is simply an act of obedience to show we have decided to follow Jesus. It also symbolizes His death, burial and resurrection, which means that ONLY immersion is correct.

    How to deal w/abuse?

    The thing with helping someone is that you have to have experienced the same pain in order to understand and empathize with them. You can pray for them; you can feel sympathy for them, but you CANNOT know what they are going through if you never went through it. I know what victims of abuse are...

    hello from UK

    If all are saved and going to heaven, then what about Revelation 20:15? "And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire." That indicates that there will be those who will not be saved. Is Hitler saved? Is Charles Manson saved? Are all the pedophiles saved...

    Who decides who's right?

    Yes, the key word is "were". We were those things but should no longer be. Even though we might still desire the old sin, that doesn't mean we should give in to it. God has provided a way for us to escape temptation. We now have a new nature in us, although we still unfortunately still have our...

    hello from UK

    Welcome to the Board. If Universal Salvation means that everyone will be saved, I disagree with that. That would mean that all unrepentant, vile, wicked, inhuman, unforgiven mortals would be in heaven along with the repentant, forgiven ones.

    he who is going to have to be taken out of the way

    The rest of you believe what you want. I believe the tribulation is meant for the lost and not for the bride of Christ--the church. Yes, we will have tribulation if we live for the Lord, but that does not mean we will be here for THE Tribulation. Jesus will come for His saints BEFORE the...

    Will this be the year?

    (whirlwind;31505) What does 2008 hold for the world? It is possible that 9/11 was the beginning of the 7 year tribulation period. If you take that year, 2001 and subtract the 1,335 years of Daniel you get...666 AD Very interesting!.....Whirlwind If it had been I would be gone since believers...

    The last I knew, God was the One who decided who is right.

    Is masturbation a sin?

    (Letsgofishing;31043) Amenbut I have one question how does fasting relieve stress everytime I try to do it I get stressed out. I'm diabetic and can't fast. As for masturbation--whether it's sin or not is a matter of opinion since there is NO scripture on it one way or the other. I would say it's...

    Who decides who's right?

    (MickinEngland;31314) Ha ha ha..In that case they're not Christians.. I have to agree. Anyone who calls sin OK is not born again. Born again means to have a change of mind and calling sin what it is--SIN.

    The Blood of Adam?

    EVERYONE is descended from Adam and Eve. Otherwise, where did we come from--another planet? Adam and Eve were the only people on earth at the time of creation until they had children. As for Adam's blood, it would have been created by God and therefore pure until the sin of disobedience. Then it...

    Is masturbation a sin?

    Onan was killed because he was supposed to get his dead brother's widow pregnant so that it could inherit what his brother left. Onan didn't want that and refused to do as ordered, and that is why God killed him.What Onan did had nothing to do with masturbation but with "coitus-interruptus". It...

    should you go to church?

    I was born and raised in Michigan and moved to Florida in 2005. I can't find a church down here that I like as well as the northern churches. Everything about them is different and not what I'm used to--especially the music, and I've always been in the music ministry. Most of the Baptist...
