Excellent post, Miss Hepburn. I agree completely.

Sorry rjp, but your whole post comes down to telling people not do what we are scripturally called to do: exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, [and] giving of thanks, be made for all men; for kings and all that are in high place; that we may lead a...

It is my understanding that the treasures in heaven will be based on the specific efforts we put for for Christ here on earth. When He says, "I am coming quickly to give back to you, according to what you have done" He likely isn't talking about some nebulus "relationships we create here on...

It's no use, Ducky. Truth's mind is made up. He doesn't want to be bothered with the facts.

"exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, [and] giving of thanks, be made for all men; for kings and all that are in high place; that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and gravity." - 1 Tim. 2:1-2 - Sorry rjp, you can continue to type...

Jesus spoke more about hell than he did of heaven. Matt 25:42 : "Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:" Matt 12:42 : "And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and...

I have heard people here try to dispell the idea of "eternal" before. I am always curious as to why they think that God never mentions the great redemption of those he condemns as he does in Matt 25:42 when he says, "Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye...

"This is how it will be at the end of the age. The angels will come and separate the wicked from the righteous and throw them into the fiery furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth." -- Jesus "And if thy hand offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life...

When I used to be a Catholic I went to confession several times. Each time the priest said, "your sins are forgiven, go and sin no more." He would then have a penance for me. Something like, "Say 15 'Our Fathers' and 30 'Hail Mary's.'" He was of understandably going under the assumption that...

-- "If you were a true christian and believed in Jesus Christ....." Wow. Very nice. Funny, because God also says that a 'true Christian' does not stand in judgement of others. You must be truly gifted to be able to see in his heart and KNOW that he doesn't believe in Jesus Christ. .

Should be interesting "welcoming" a nation with no real central government, and whose claimed capital (among other territory they claim) is part of another sovereign nation.

Ducky is right. It is a comparison, not a correlation.

I must confess, I laughed outloud when Hero tagged Mr. Obama as the Anti-Christ. Are there really people on this board who believe this?

-- My response would be.....And? Because these people believe this obviously does not make them right. Oh, and for the record, the head of the "Barna Group" that took the survey, when asked if he attends church, responded: "Forgive me, but I kind of bristle at that expression. “Church” refers...

Truth, Why don't you do us all a favor and just SAY what specifically you believe about this? Please.

I am a simple man and - for better or for worse - take a simpler view. In Matt. 6 Jesus talks about "When you pray..." "When you fast..." "When you give..." Not 'if,' but 'when' The "Give" portion in that chapter has been a generator of great discussion. It can indeed mean giving to the...

-- Very nice. You contradict yourself within one paragraph. I never said you said you shouldn't pray for the last. I pointed out that you said we shouldn't waste our time praying for leaders because it is "a waste of time." If they need prayer then they likely aren't walking in God's will...

Again, for these claims to be true, Jesus would have to have been wrong in Matt 24:36 - "No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father." There are too many things that haven't happened that must transpire before Christ's return. I will...

If the "sins of my youth" are still present in their adulthood... I speak with Christians still dealing with this. Also with those still dealing with alcohol and drugs. Even those who simply cannot quit smoking. Pretending it isn't there is of zero assistance to those in need. Please note...
