I had mentioned in a post a few days ago that every ten years someone comes out with a new theory on how the universe began. Here is now the latest. It is now suggested that is just always been there. :) Enjoy! http://news.yahoo.com/big-bang-deflated-universe-may-had-no-beginning-140017504.html

Praise be to God!!!! It is absolutely amazing how He works. Angelina, you are indeed a prayer warrior! God Bless you! I'm glad to hear your friend was taken care of! :) BA

I look at the differences in Churches now as compared to, say, 20 years ago. I come from a conservative protestant upbringing. I still cant get into these churches that have a full out rock band with lights and sounds to spread the message. I am perfectly content with a standard sermon. Its in...

Okay, so even if we used one bible translation only, I am still not convinced the KJV would be it. Don't get me wrong, you have put up a good argument for your point, but I'm just not convinced. You mentioned earlier that Angelina should have said "God told her.... etc.." Well, I don't feel that...

HAHAHAHAHA!!! Angelina, you have really outdone yourself LOL :P

Welcome! :) Glad to have you here. Hope to see you on the boards!!

"So, is there any failure on the part of God? Or is the real problem of our own making in that we, like ancient Israel, have turned from God and have not kept his commandments and have become blinded by our sins as they were?" Obviously God has not failed. It's an unfortunate situation. Man as...

Stephen Hawkings says the universe exists because it had too... Not sure what that means or the theology behind it. To me, that means he could see no other logical explanation because he refuses to accept intelligent design. I saw an article recently that there was a new theory that life on...

That is a very good answer. If they had only followed His teachings..... Think back to those moments in history or murder and atrocities done in the name of Christ. How different would the outcomes been had they followed His message of love? But was that all part of His plan? Was it His will? A...

Thank you sir! :) You are right. It's probably safe to say most of the time it is not about the spouse. And from here, we lead into rapture???? HAHA :)

That's a good way of putting it. But what if the "lust" is for the spouse? Is it still lust at that point? I really have no answer for that myself but was curious what your take on that was. But I agree with you. :)

I read these verses in a few different Bible versions. To get a true understanding of these passages you need to define "Flesh". If you can accurately define it (interpret it) then we all get the correct meaning of these verses. Romans 8:12 for example. Even if KJV was the authority, you need to...

So I took on the task of checking each noted scripture with what you are comparing it to. Some of them are right on with what you are trying to convey but there are others that you seem to be twisting them meet your needs. This is what I was referring to earlier when I said it was up for...

Okay, this still isn't clicking. Yes, you live by faith, but you also, at that point still have free will and the responsibility to maintain faithfulness. The devil doesn't stop tempting you once you follow Christ. People fall. This is where His mercy and compassion come into play. He can take...

Thank you, Angelina. :) That makes good sense. I just never understood why baptize an infant if they don't know what they are receiving. Thanks again!! :)

Yeah, that didn't answer my question. From what you say, salvation can only be given once. I can agree with that. But, I am asking, if an infant is baptized, do they receive salvation? They have no idea what just happened to them. And if later in life they truly find Christ, are you saying that...

"Either we follow Him by trusting Him to help us to follow Him and His words or... we are resorting to our own power by keeping that commitment to do so in following Him." You do understand how contradictive that statement sounds, don't you? Yes, you follow Him by trusting Him but you don't...

Psalm 60:12 Only through God can we be successful. It is God alone who will defeat our enemies and bring us victory!

Let me dust this one off. Just because there were a sequence of events doesn't mean anything. We, man, created the concept/ units of measurement for time. In the Kingdom of heaven, time is irrelevant. It kind of goes back to our discussion about what happens to our souls when we die. Do we hang...

I have a very nice NIV that has my name embossed in the cover and I have had it for almost 20 years. I still keep it in the box it came in but I use it almost daily. I treat it like a prized possession. I couldn't imagine writing in it. I have other, less snazzy, Bibles but I just cant bring...
