    Here's why you should read your Bible more often

    That is true, pom. He does say to do that..... And to speak aloud when you do... Good catch.

    Explain how God can exist

    Yea, but if you didn't think there were consequences then you wouldn't hold your self accountable. It's human nature. We obey rules because we fear punishment. If there were no God, then who cares?

    Here's why you should read your Bible more often

    I think what it means is that if you say it repetitively and without conviction it means nothing. We say it at church every week. But when you listen to the congregation, it is done in mono tone and most people are staring straight ahead. Its programmed into them. They are just saying it with...

    People Pleasin'

    Yes, when I knew things were going down hill with my home life, I went to my boss and told her what was going on (not too many details though) and asked her to please let me know if it was starting to affect my work. She understood and thanked my for letting her know ahead of time. She told me...

    Cern and the completion of the Great Work

    I have know a few people who have claimed to be witches.... And the funny part was, their lives were total disasters. And I never once saw anything from them that made think they had an ounce of credibility. People can convince themselves that anything is real if they want to. Even so, it would...

    Round Trip or One Way?

    I would agree. When Jesus said His father would return soon, to Him it is soon, because like you said, man measures time. :)

    Round Trip or One Way?

    Okay, Thank you! It seemed to be only logical to me if time is irrelevant in the Kingdom. :)

    Round Trip or One Way?

    I have mentioned this before, but if in fact we do go into a state of "Soul Sleep" then essentially wouldn't we die and by our perception, immediately wake to the rapture? So upon death we see His second coming and face judgment?

    Does anyone know if Amy Poehler has a religion or believes in God?

    I saw you asked this on another forum I'm on. Why so curious about it?

    Are the 10 Commandments the Law of Moses?

    I've said it before, if you live as Christ wants us to live, like Him, then the rest falls into place. Follow Christ and His word, you are set! :) It's actually quite simple :)

    How Do You Follow Jesus? By Commitment or By Faith?

    In the interest of making sure other readers of the topic are not mislead, the interpretation has to be addressed when someone may be mis-interpreting scripture. This of course can change the message. I do agree the discussion of the "correct version of the bible" has gotten to be a bit lengthy...

    How Do You Follow Jesus? By Commitment or By Faith?

    Galatians 5:1-5New International Version (NIV) Freedom in Christ 5 It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery. 2 Mark my words! I, Paul, tell you that if you let yourselves be circumcised, Christ will be of...

    Defend the Faith & Not "Famous" Christians

    Okay, so last night I took my kids to Winter Jam. It is a concert that includes bands like For King and County, Jeremy Camp, Skillet, Francesca Battastelli, and so forth. Total 10 bands. It was a great time and my kids had a blast. However, there was a guest pastor, Tony Nolan or something like...

    Encouragement Corner, Being led into deep waters.

    How is your faith? Would you follow Christ into deep waters? There are times when Christ will hold out His hand and call you to follow him into deeper waters. Will you follow Him or will fear keep you. This is often found in times of trial. Christ would never lead you into deep waters and let...

    How Do You Follow Jesus? By Commitment or By Faith?

    Comparing the two versions, it reads the same to me. If you want to interpret it to mean different, then have fun. But as you stated,," many believers see this verse as justifying making a commitment to Christ and into following Him or to do good while they suffer; hence it is more about the...

    A Quesion For Regular Members

    No. I tell people about it but I don't advertise it in the bulletin. Most of them aren't interested in debating theology. I also venture a large chunk of them are just Sunday warriors. I actually sit so I can observe the congregation. And yea, a lot of them are just saving face so it would be...

    It is the spirit of God that makes intercession for us.

    Well your first mistake was watching the 700 club. I take little stock in that show. BA

    How Do You Follow Jesus? By Commitment or By Faith?

    So, to bring this around to the OP. It seems at this point, the answer to the question does seem to hinge on what version of the Bible you support, regardless of who commissioned it. It also seems to hinge on the interpretation of the scripture as well. I still feel that it is just that...
