    What are your thoughts on this?

    Spot on Lookin' and Cedar!God doesn't look kindly upon the lazy. Proverbs is the book that deals with wisdom and so it's a good one to listen to and apply as much as possible. God provides us with many types and examples, and even the tiny yet industrious ant is one of them.

    The Internet is Killing Christianity!

    http://bluehydra.blogspot.com/2008/11/inte...ristianity.htmlI noticed this backlink. Now I hate to even link to the site because much of what is written on there is trash, but it illustrates the point. (IE: Saying that a "Christian site" - which this is clearly a forum, and this was a post by a...

    Suit forces eHarmony: gay dating

    I fail to understand how any American government has the authority to tell someone how to conduct their business. Another clear violation of our US Constitution...and yet they say their rights are trampled.

    Homosexuality is actually a pagan Religion

    Because it goes back to understanding what the asherim of ancient Israel were and how much this figures into the evil of the world. I agree wholeheartedly that evil is evil, and homosexuality is not the only kind. However, it is linked to pagan worship, and was even listed as a mental disease up...

    Financial Problems

    And then there are some that falsely lump everything in the Old Testament under "the Old Covenent" because they don't have clue what they are talking about. Again, just something to be wary of, test it against the Word.

    Financial Problems

    jp83, a tithe need be given under one condition only - that it is carried out in the Lord's name and for his purpose. It is indeed true that a tithe was taken to the priestly authority in the OT, and it should be done here where you are truly fed the Word and the teachings that come therein, but...

    Christianity Board Updates and Housekeeping

    And the good news is, I was able to get the old mood manager working, so we're back to like it was before in that area now.

    Christianity Board Updates and Housekeeping

    Howdy folks!I've worked today on making some minor changes to Christianity Board. Most of this work centered on restoring some of the user experiences that we had in the past. Instead of writing out paragraphs based on what I've accomplished, here is a list instead:Subforum Arrangement - This...

    The only question that matters

    Haven't you been claiming that you're NOT one of the anti-church folks?So are you, or aren't you? Read my posts...or better yet read what I've posted before you ever came around. A good church is a good thing, but not easy to find in all circumstances. This is, obviously, seperate from the...

    The only question that matters

    You anti-church folks really, really need to become educated on what you're condemning before you do the condemning. And I care that you are condemning me because?I'm glad you think so highly of yourself here, but I stick by my Scripture.

    The only question that matters

    MY criteria? Who are you trying to kid here? And yes, I'm going to stand by my original statement that I do not personally know anybody who is both growing and dynamic in their faith, yet refuses to be a part of a local church family. So we've been resolutely ignoring the clear meaning of...

    The only question that matters

    Beyond that, don't put words in my mouth - claiming I'm saying a person cannot be a Christian outside a church "building". That is another falsehood. Likewise. Never said you did, my comment was a clear reference to those that maintain that Hebrews 10 talks specifically about church. Didn't...

    The only question that matters

    Why not actually respond to what I've actually been writing? NOWHERE have I said that church-attenders are "better". That is your own defense mechanism kicking in. And yes, I'm going to stand by my original statement that I do not personally know anybody who is both growing and dynamic in their...

    The only question that matters

    That said, I will go on to say that I've not yet met ANYBODY, who claims to be a Christian yet refuses to worship with other believers at a local church, who is actually growing and dynamic in their faith. Now that is quite the prideful statement from someone who likes to lecture many of the...

    Government Won't Buy Troubled Assets

    Didn't you see, they want to buy the 'big three' automakers as well. Our government is going to own quite a lot. The Constitution is in shambles.I was in a discussion about this last night.Deuteronomy 28:43-45 The stranger that is within thee shall get up above thee very high; and thou shalt...

    The only question that matters

    Bigape, we'll have to agree to disagree on that one.Hebrews 10:24-25 And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works: Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day...

    The only question that matters

    You've got a lot of self-justification going on there, while ignoring both Acts 2:38 and Hebrews 10:25. And similarly, I could say that you've missed a few verses as well.Matthew 3:11 I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I...
