    Man made Bible

    I'm going to pose these questions to you skeptic in regards to this quote: I believe that christ left us but one law: LOVE. Where would you draw this from? Perhaps Christ came and said for us to follow the laws of the Tanakh only. Perhaps the same corrupt priests wanted to absolve the law...

    World Flood Stories

    It all hinges on the translation. Although I don't have my concordance with me right off, I do remember that the specific Hebrew used to the describe the area that was flooded was rendered differently in other areas where it meant something much more reasonable. Take for instance Cain who was...

    24 Elders

    I have no explanation myself and I've never heard this before but it could be plausible. 24 being a multiple of 12 (12 x 2) is certainly important because 12 is a number related to governmental perfection. I suppose this is where you heard the link to the 12 tribes and the 12 apostles. It's a...

    Controversy continues over the decision by Saddleback Church pastor Rick Warren's decision to invite U.S. Senator Barack Obama to a global AIDS summit at the Southern California church.

    Legal Group Tells IRS to Back Off Intimidating Churches

    A religious liberties group says it has had enough of the Internal Revenue Service bullying pastors, and wants those pastors and churches to know that the U.S. Constitution trumps IRS regulations about what can and can't be said from the pulpit.More...

    Foxes in the Vineyard

    Do human beings -- Christians included -- have the right to alter God's purposes in matters of marriage and family? When God's will is clear, if we deviate from His way it is counted as disobedience, even when we act with the best of intentions.More...

    Pundit Foresees Tough Times for Conservative Democrats in Congress

    A conservative political pundit says he believes the 50 or so moderate -- or even conservative -- incoming freshman Democrats in Congress will have a difficult time stopping the left-wing members of their party from advancing a very liberal agenda next year.More...

    Paranoia About Christianity Reaches New High as Chicago Dumps on The Nativity Story

    The omitting of Christ from Christmas is nothing new. But Chicago's city leaders have gone overboard in their efforts to prevent visitors to a local Christmas festival from being "offended" by ads for an upcoming movie about Mary and Joseph and the birth of the Christ child.More...

    Pray for Shelby County

    Both of you are in my prayers - coincidentally we also live quite close to a fault that has been fairly inactive for the past century or so. (Is it just me or is there a trend here?) I've only felt a few small tremblings since I was little. God will never leave thee or forsake thee.

    Man made Bible

    Ah but we mess everything up to be honest. God tried giving us the commandments verbally as we see from the very beginning of time, but that didn't work either; there's a reason Jesus quoted from the Old Testament; in fact, there's reasons. Scholars will have you believe that the writings were...

    Should we interpret the Bible literally?

    How do you interpret this? How do you decide which laws are to be followed and which not? Christ's sacrifice for us on the cross. The laws still hold, as Jesus told us in Matthew 5, he didn't come to change even one jot (Greek iota) of the law. It never changed. We cannot possibly live by all...

    Will believer's know the day?

    A very fair statement Jenn. Another thing I would like to point out are the various intepretations of the time itself since God states that time is shortened for the elect's sake. I stay very far away from anyone who says that they can tell me the hour.
