I appreciate all the posting, but we aren't answering my original question.Thermodynamics has many apologetic uses.I was criticizing a particular one which I think could backfire because I think it is poorly reasoned. I am not supporting evolution, nor am I arguing against all uses of...

Now to run as if to win a prize.... by grace and grace alone.Being a pastor, etc, could never add anything to my salvation, which is the source of relationship with God. I can't make God like me more, or love me more. It is for freedom we are set free. I will live in a manner consistant with my...

I don't see the fruitfulness of discussing this more. I think it might be an argument over semantics. 2 Timothy 2:14. Thus I won't defend my positions about baptism here, but I will explain why I have diagnosed this as semantics.Yes, there is only "one baptism". Quintessially so.In another...

As I was writting there were some other posts. I think what I said is relevent since I wrote it without reading them; I won't rewrite it all, but leave it as is: I will disagree with Christina slightly about the Baptism of the Holy Spirit. When you are saved' date=' you have the Holy Spirit in...

Thanks sis!I have talked to several pastors about ministry over the years, but most of them not recently. It is a good challenge. If only those with high IQ were also guranteed to be wise, and visa versa. I can think of at least one brillant pastor who is also wise.You made me curious to look up...

Sorry, I am only 20. But I have birthday in January. Can you guess which day?-Redeemed22

First of all, thanks everybody for your wonderful insights. I will try to answer your questions, but one or two at a time

Hello lovelies.I feel clearly called to vocational ministry, and God has been confirming it to me in several ways. I feel fuzzily drawn to attend seminary and then to be a pastor.Right now I am praying about attending seminary.Whether or not I attend, when I attend should I attend, and where I...

hehehehehehehehehehehehe!:DOne time on an elevator, a stranger began (unsolicitedly) stroking my beard. lol! She thought it was "pretty". I'll admit my beard was a little curly at the time, and thus 10% prettier than most beards, but the situation was still awkward!

I just listened to a sermon by John Piper about humility.He mentioned some things similiar to [don't quote me!], "Humility is agreeing with, and rejoicing in, the idea that every breath we have or don't have, every possession we have or don't have, every gifting we have or don't have, is...

Forgot the name of a girl while taking her to a movie. It was our last date.(Age 9ish) While hiking in the mountains, slipped down a steep creek bank into a very moist cow pie. Covered my jeans in sloppy cow poo. Hiked many many miles in my whitey-tighties.Called a teacher "Mom".I forget...

Well, Satan is the Antichrist. Satan is the father of lies. Lies are all over the place. Thus the influence of the Antichrist is everywhere.We are to tear down any pretention that sets itself up against the truth of Christ. 2 Corinthians 10:5The subtleties of Satan are everywhere. More graphic...

We can classify false prophets for the sake of discussion.For example, anyone other than Christ claiming to be Christ is a false prophet... and we have lots of warnings in scripture, as gumby pointing out. However, this is not the only sort of false prophet. Prophesying is not strictly...
