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

    No disagreement with what you have said except for one thing...there is no record of the church in scripture mentioning it once a year. I think that the reason for this was that they lived the resurrection life of Jesus every day. We don't so we have to invent particular days to keep things...

    Making the case for organized religion

    Manna from heaven. Everything you said is true and it is so wonderful to see someone not defending the indefensible. Comments like this indicate to me that God is alive and well and out of the apostate church will come the true church referred to as "His church" in scripture.

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

    I think a much more important question is "does God need Christmas?" I don't think he does as there is no record in scripture of the church celebrating the birth of Christ every year which was in October. What was more important to them was his resurrection as no other belief system can claim...

    Making the case for organized religion

    Here are some quotes of Selene in the thread "Female Pastors." Christ is the Good Shepherd, and He is the Head of the Church (which is His flock). Christ is also the High Priest, and Christ was a man. He is not a female. A female cannot take the position of a priest, pastor, bishop, or Head...

    are we just wasting our money giving it to pro life groups that never get the job done

    I am sorry horsecamp, but with the subject of abortion nothing will change quickly, mainly due to the fact that the church in general is silent about this barbarity. They are more interested in their Sunday morning bless me clubs rather than get involved in saving lives which may disturb their...

    THE QUESTION NO ONE WANTS TO ASK

    STILL WAITING FOR AN ANSWER TO ALL MY QUESTIONS.

    A Moral Framework for Same Sex Unions?

    Your reply is as to be expected as there are plenty of people doing nothing in the church who consider themselves experts and who think that they know more about things than those who are doing something. I have a friend who runs a blog on the internet exposing the myths and lies of...

    A Moral Framework for Same Sex Unions?

    Still waiting for an answer to this question. I guess that your reluctance to answer suggests that you don't bring deliverance to these people. That being the case, I prefer the way I do it to the way you don't do it as Charles Finney said to person who was criticising him for his methods. This...

    A Moral Framework for Same Sex Unions?

    So when are you going to answer it? I didn't ask you for a thesis on the subject. I ask you how YOU bring deliverance to these people. Do you and who is "we" ? Then you do not know very much. It is one of the tools that I use (successfully) to bring freedom from an unwanted same sex attraction...

    A Moral Framework for Same Sex Unions?

    So how do you bring release and deliverance to people who have an unwanted same sex attraction?

    The persecuted Christians suffer yet more (UK)

    Of course the naysayers want you to compromise your beliefs to make you acceptable to the God haters. The scripture is quite clear..."have nothing to do with the works of darkness" and I do not see any qualification there in regard to this. If we are not of this world, we are not of this...

    A Moral Framework for Same Sex Unions?

    I don't lie a hundred times a day because I am autistic and autistic people find it very hard to lie.

    Making the case for organized religion

    I will say it again Selene. If you believe that teaching is ministry for men why do you spend so much time on here putting men right.

    Making the case for organized religion

    This comment means that we can do whatever we like, how we like, with whomever we like as long as we are meeting in the "name of Christ" so let me ask you, there are churches in my country and probably yours who are meeting in the "name of Christ" who are led by a practicing homosexual or...

    The Church With No Doctrine

    Can't let this one pass Rocky. You expect three things out of a church and then you list four and then you say "these four conditions..." Then you talk about a properly prepared communion table atop an alter altar..... it seems like you are rusted onto religion, not christianity. I say this...

    Making the case for organized religion

    And the concept is meeting in homes so why aren't you following it? Yes, yes and yes. In my church watch, I have noticed that there are churches doing the same thing ten years later with no appreciable growth in numbers or spiritual depth. And there are denominational churches who do the same...

    A Moral Framework for Same Sex Unions?

    Just a small point here. That is what homosexual fundies say to convince us that homosexuality is not a sin. There are no victims they cry, but it could not be further from the truth. Here are some of the victims and how they are hurt by it. Young homosexuals are told that their homosexuality...

    Making the case for organized religion

    Sorry but that verse does not support your argument for the following reasons. One, the NTC met in homes so there is no concept of meeting in a religious building called a church. Two. In the Greek, the assembling together that is referred to is in homes so if you are not meeting in homes, you...

    A Moral Framework for Same Sex Unions?

    Homosexuality and a moral standard are by and large an oxymoron. The two are rarely found together. Apart from the fact if it is proscribed by God, how can it be moral in any form. Homosexuals have very publicly admitted that moral is not a word that they use in regards to SSM. In a discussion...

    No Degree Required

    Thankyou for confirming that you say whatever comes into your head at any given time. To add to that excellent comment, I have often said that christianity today is a religion of cliches. We say whatever is the in phrase and believe that we are hip or believable as a religion, when in fact we...
