I would not deny that is possible. One can make a practice of anything if one is determined to do so. What needs to happen is for the person doing the praying to discern what is going on. There have been times when people have come forward for prayer and I detected that there was no life in what...

When Iwas doing my teaching degree at uni, the educational experts said that the average attention span was 20 minutes. That being the case, one has to take that in consideration when teaching, which I did, bit by bit to enable the listener to learn. Sadly the church has ignored this advice and...

The amount of study done has no bearing on your mistakes.

I don't think. I know the scripture is the answer to all our questions. The secret is knowing where to look which most people don't because they never rread it.

When you say we are required to think it implies that I don't think. I am sorry that you have such a mindset that you can't acknowledge another persons contribution. I thought about this for two years as I was researching the topic for a Ph.D. and during that time read over 60 books on the...

Usually a spirit of rejection is something that one is born with. Words are powerful and as the scripture says there is life and death in the power of the tongue. In my case, I was abandoned by my parents when I was two weeks old. Obviously they had said they didn't want me and with those words...

These sort of forums are replete with people saying what they think. They try to avoid searching the scriptures, preferring to slavishly follow what they have been taught by the leader of the church. Which goes to show how badly they have been taught. It is refreshing when someone says the...

Do you have a scripture for driving a car? Do you have a scripture for using a computer? Do you have a scripture for flying in a plane? In case you had not realised, it is the Holy Spirit that leads you into all truth, not the bible. The bible is a tool that the Holy Spirit uses. Without him...

So you are quite sure it wasn't a phony.

I am surprised that the bible doesn't record Peter and the apostles saying "Did anyone say KFC?" Perhaps it is in the catholic bible. That is why I joined the Jesus Church. You know, I will build MY church and the gates of hell will not prevail against it. That cannot be the catholic church...

A preacher was pulled over by a policeman for running a red light and was discovered to be intoxicated. 'What do you have in that thermos there?'Wine?' ' No sir, I swear to God that it is nothing but water' The cop picks up the thermos and sniffs it. 'Smells like alchohol to me.' "Glory to...

A teacher asked her class how many of them were Bernie Sanders fans. Not knowing what a Bernie Sanders fan was, but wanting to be liked by the teacher, all the kids raised their hands except Johnny. The teacher asked Johnny why he had decided to be different. 'Because I am not a Bernie...

Must have been all behind in his work.

Did someone say KFC?

Oh dear we are a high and mighty authority on every religion in the world.

That is one way of looking at those verses. And it is not too difficult to come to that conclusion. The problem is that you have focussed on one aspect only regarding salvation. As we know, there are plenty more verses in scripture that would deny what you said is right. This is a case of where...

Alright have it your way. All Catholic scripture mumbo jumbo.

And you keep trotting out catholic teaching and it is getting boring.
