    Howdy all

    Welcome John! Are you thinking about going into ministry? It excites me to see someone your age fired up about Jesus. I think what the Spirit can do through you guys is particularly exciting, because you are growing up in a new world from the one I grew up in even (I'm only 9 years older, but...

    Humpty Dumpty Science !

    I'm in agreement with aspen, for the most part. My only caution is the word science comes from Latin sciencia which refers to what we know. I feel like there is a lot of testing of what one believes out there - and a number of presuppositions are made in an attempt to disprove God. This is what...

    Saviour of the world ?

    Well, I think it begins with defining Christ's work on the cross, and I have come to understand it as limited atonement or definite atonement. What that means is that, as Sproul puts it best, that Jesus' work on the cross is sufficient for all, but only efficient for those who believe (the...

    Hi! Everyone [From Toronto]

    I guess we can forgive you... ;) Welcome to the community! IPB is not so bad, it has it's easy-to-use stuff, and then it has its doozies, but all in all, it's good software.

    Is America a Christian or Post-Christian Nation?

    http://spectator.org/archives/2012/08/06/america-christian-or-post-chri There has obviously been a good bit of ink spilled on this discussion, but the paragraph that resonates with me comes at the end of this sobering assessment. For the record, I think the assessment that we are a...

    Preventing Colorado type shooting

    If it wasn't a semi-automatic weapon, it would have been a bomb. Do you propose banning the sale of fertilizer, nails (for shrapnel), and other common household items that might be used in such a device? If you do, how would you go about enforcing that ban, and would you be comfortable banning...

    Does the bible prohibit a woman from being a "pastor"?

    I have a question for those who use the frequent citation of I Timothy 3:2 ESV: Would this exclude a non-married male?

    The state of the church

    I could write pages on this, but I'll stick with some shorter statements. #1 The church - the true church which is not monopolized by any one institution or denomination, is the BRIDE of Christ. Watch out how you talk about God's woman. The church itself is not in disarray, but the people and...

    Just Joined from Scotland UK

    I have family that deals with painful back conditions, and I know that it can be a burden. Thanks for taking the message of Jesus to people like you have, you are an inspiration! Plus, I always like to talk to other people who update/run church websites. Maybe we can have some convos on that...

    Christianity Board Community Tips

    I'm blessed with the team I have behind me, but yes if everyone would help us out and stay on topic, I really think we can all learn some things! Iron sharpens iron, but if you've ever missed a nail and hit your finger, the result is not good. Iron has to hit iron on target to be effective...

    Greetings from Trekson

    Welcome to Christianity Board! Revelation remains one of my favorite books, and I think it continues to be the honor of kings to search out the "hidden" manner.

    Olympic Opening Ceremony

    Did anyone watch the opening ceremony last night? I liked the first part of it with the agri-history and then the rise of the industrial revolution, but I was lost around the National Health Service. I'm trying to put politics aside, but it's sad in a history of a country with an amazing...

    The Field Guide for Volatile Topics

    Aspen, I think the emphasis is more on treating it like you will be flamed hypothetically unless you say it correctly. If everyone approached their posts with that much grace, then I think there would be fewer knockdown dragout threads around here.
