    A Moral Framework for Same Sex Unions?

    Just as I thought VOT. You are full of bright ideas that are the product of a vivid imagination but you are not prepared to get your hands dirty. You would rather just lecture others because they know more than you do.

    What are your views on feminism?

    I must be the intelligent one. I mean to say from goo to you via the zoo. How stupid is that.

    Homosexuality: Is it the way a person is born?

    I have not read all the posts because they probably say the same thing as all the other threads on the topic and having been a researcher of the subject for many years and ran a support group for people with an unwanted same sex attraction I guess I have seen it all and been there, done that...

    IN THE BEGINNING GOD......

    Horsecamp, your last post makes for very interesting reading and throws up some very plausible thoughts.

    What's Required For Staying In Heaven?

    My recipe for this is to be so heaveny minded you will be of no earthly use.

    IN THE BEGINNING GOD......

    Thanks and can I add to what you said. I am well versed in arguing the case with atheists on the internet. The more you do it the more obvious becomes their aims. Central to everything is rebellion. Nothing new as we read in scripture "we will not have this man (Jesus) to reign over us." The...

    What required for going to Heaven?

    Whose Pope Eugene IV? Was he that bloke standing next to Fred on the balcony? I thought I would indulge myself and look up Eugene's story and had a bit of a chuckle. First, he said what he said because he was always repelling boarders to saver his popery from attack so it had nothing to do...

    A Classic - The Homeless Preacher

    Just arrived home from the hospital after my post treatment checkup. Cancer is gone and not expected to return, praise God. They will monitor me for a couple of years to make sure all is going well.

    Not Allowing Kids to Get Gifts at Christmas - - It's Wrong

    Not exactly the most convincing of arguments. My thoughts and affections are with Jesus every day, so the Christmas special is a bit irrelevant, especially as it is not the day Christ was born. If we are going to celebrate anything, it might be a good idea to find out when it actually happened...

    Not Allowing Kids to Get Gifts at Christmas - - It's Wrong

    Pilgrimer said it was 42 degrees at Christmas so what is hard about that? And here is an article from today's Jerusalem Post (31st Jan) Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu recorded a Christmas greeting to Israel's Christian friends from a snowy Jerusalem, wishing them "the warmest Christmas...

    IN THE BEGINNING GOD......

    That is not evolution as it started as a dog and finished as a dog. Modern Evolutionary Theory (MET) is demonstrated when something becomes something else as in when a fish becomes a lizard. Time is of the essence in MET as they say that it take millions of years for a monkey to become a...

    IN THE BEGINNING GOD......

    That thought is SENSATIONAL!! What you might call the three Os of God.

    IN THE BEGINNING GOD......

    I have only told you what evolutionists have said. Evolutionary theory is a shifting sand. When I first started to study evolution the consensus was the the earth was 200 million years old. Later it was said it 800 million. This was followed by 2 billion. This was increased to 3.5 billion. Not...

    IN THE BEGINNING GOD......

    I am taking just one quote of yours to backdrop what I am saying. My original post did not concern itself with literal definitions of the creation story. It only concerned itself with one fact and that was "In the beginning God..." That means how you interpret the setting is not relevant. What...

    IN THE BEGINNING GOD......

    Rock Wiley MAY be right but what is important to us is the bit in Genesis. Obviously if Rock Wiley is right it is of no consequence to the believer as God has chosen not to include that aspect in his dealings with man. It is speculation that will not change a thing in our relationship with God...

    IN THE BEGINNING GOD......

    I remember about 25 years ago, speaking at a fledgling church one Sunday morning. My topic was "In the Beginning God." I don't remember much about what I said as I spoke without notes of any kind. I relied entirely on the Holy Spirit to give me the words that I was to speak. I know that I said...

    Strange fire conference: For God's glory or control

    As I read your post Alan, it came to me that it is pride that says we don't need Holy Spirit power in our lives and activity. When pride takes over, we say all sorts of things that blinds us to the truth.

    Led By His Word

    Yes one does not have to speculate on that. I read an American Christian newspaper on line that details what is going on in the church and world in America and every week the atheists are suing someone because they are involved in public Christianity on the basis of separation of church and...

    Led By His Word

    I would hazard to say that most of the time we hide behind our religion, not proclaim it. The church has facilitates such sentiments by wasting money on expensive special buildings which we all go to to express our faith or lack of it away from the prying eyes of the world. Having done our duty...

    The Church With No Doctrine

    The King James translates the verse 1Co 11:26 For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do show the Lord's death till he come. The CEV however is different. "The Lord meant that when you eat this bread and drink from this cup, you tell about his death until he comes" This is...
