Thank you for the info. I own a Motorola phone with Android OS.

On a more positive note, let me share something I once heard on a Christian radio show. There was a young man who was called to a ministry that required that he take the pulpit to address his congregation regularly. I don't recall if he was teaching, preaching, or just making announcements, but...

That's okay. My ministry (in the prophetic sense) is really only for those who are meant to receive it and it never carried the weight of scripture (except where scripture is quoted and faithfully applied). In that sense it doesn't matter whether or not you "get all" of it. If I'm entirely...

I actually posted much of the results of my early study of Jesus in the books of the law and the prophets in a series of posts meant to be a faith building endeavor, that I called "seeing Jesus Christ". That was quite a while ago and the posts were by no means comprehensive, but you can still...

We do not yet have a "pure language" which is problematic for people being purified. Understanding is an entirely personal thing that is colored by experience. If we knew everything that there is to know about God in scripture, would we really spend time with Him studying it? I suppose the...

Since you insist on whipping a dead horse. I loved my wife's tattoos as they came as part of the package. I didn't love her self destructiveness, her selective obedience to the teachings of scripture, her rebellious willfulness, and her clinging to worldly values. The dissolution of our marriage...

Ever ask yourself why Eve was deceived by the serpent, but Adam sinned knowingly?

You consistently miss the point. Our minds tend to justify our behavior, but we aren't the standard of righteousness, nor are our feelings. Jesus Christ is the standard of God, the image we are to be renewed in, and scripture is the standard by which we measure up to Him. We can speculate on...

Yup, I said it in at least 2 posts here, but I didn't say that she got them after receiving the gospel (she actually had them when I met her) and the additional one that she got without consulting me was an act of willful rebellion to me, not to God, but a cause of conflict and deeper division...

you didn't comprehend my posts.

Jesus didn't actually give any new commandments and the one Commandment that He actually did give you find in the gospel of John. Jesus was in His contemporary ministry, a teacher of the Law and His audience was almost entirely Jews under the law. He often quoted from Deuteronomy as well as from...

It's nice to have the world at your fingertips, but it is the world. I like using Christian resources for study but don't find them entirely reliable. I have a John McArthur study bible as an ebook, but don't find it particularly helpful for a word search to identify 500 or more listings...

If you mean innocent, I would be inclined to agree.

God is always present, His omnipresence is a given from a theological standpoint, even if we aren't aware of it.

Yeah, looked it up quickly and changed my post with an opinion added.

I remember transubstantiation from my youth and days in catechism classes, but what exactly is consubstantiation? Nevermind, I looked it up and had no idea that such a view was held by the Anglican church and the Lutheran. Interesting distinction, but the doctrine isn't necessary unless you...

The word apostle just means sent one, so technically anyone called by God to evangelize as a missionary is actually an apostle, but scripture usually used the term to refer to the 12 that Jesus called out publicly from His disciples, empowered to do healings and cast out unclean spirits, and...

Of course not.

You're really beating an old drum and speculating on motives irrelevant to the statements made. Scripture plainly states in the New Testament: "Do you have faith? Have it to yourself before God. Happy is he who does not condemn himself in what he approves. But he who doubts is condemned if he...
