    A Moral Framework for Same Sex Unions?

    To answer your question, there is no such a thing as a moral framework for relationships that are outside of God’s will. The relationship itself is immoral so what they do within it is immoral. Being nice does not make it moral. That does not mean you have to reject them, only the immorality of...

    Is America Becoming A Force For Evil In The World?

    Speaking as an outsider who has visited the USA, I have nothing but admiration for the people of America. I was there for six weeks and had nothing but welcome brother, we are so glad you are here. The people were polite, friendly, helpful and accomodating. If I wasn't married to an...

    The persecuted Christians suffer yet more (UK)

    In Romans 12:2 it says "And be not conformed to this age, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, in order to prove by you what is the good and pleasing and perfect will of God." That means we have to please God not man. Providing the accommodation for the two homosexuals would be a...

    Making the case for organized religion

    I don't find in scripture that God or Jesus told us to go and save one person. His last command was to go into ALL THE WORLD, not all the church and make disciples which most churches don't but that is another story so don't get me started on that one. And I have a feeling your comment about...

    No argument with that one.

    What is wrong with the American Church today?

    Not a bad idea bling but unfortunately the wheat and the tares grow together in the same field. Yes I agree. I would not have a bar of the largest church in Australia becuase their maturity is about three miles wide and 3 inches deep. I would get bored in that one very quickly as I don't do...

    The Authority To Baptize

    it seems that you are posing an either or situation but the scriptures does not entertain the idea. In the first gospel preaching on the day of pentecost the hearers were told.... Act 2:37 And hearing, they were stabbed in the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, Men...

    THE QUESTION NO ONE WANTS TO ASK

    So Agabus wasn't a prophet? In that case why does your catholic church insist on their priests being addressed as father? If that is the case why is the pope called the vicar of Christ and is his representative on earth? And why do catholics have to go through the priest to receive...

    What is wrong with the American Church today?

    George Barna researched this issue and his findings were that only 1% of the churches in America were growing and this was often transfer growth, not new convert growth.

    Making the case for organized religion

    Most definitely Prentiss. When you read the scriptures it is all about the Risen Lord and the good news of salvation. In too many churches today it is about the system and rules. I am not singling out the catholic church but the more you go to mass the more likely are you to get salvation. if...

    OK FHII, here we go. Do you remember I said I was not a MARKEDMAN and asked you to desist. If you persist I will make a report to the moderator that you have adopted an arrogant attitude to another poster.

    Making the case for organized religion

    Being organised can mean many things depending whether your faith is in organised religion or not. I have heard the words of Paul quoted "let everything be done decently and in order" to mean there is no place for the working of the Holy Spirit or his gifts in the meeting. To be done decently...

    Making the case for organized religion

    It is sad that we don't do that. I have made two attempts to get the churches in my area to work together and pool resources for evangelism and in the first case I was told "go away, we run things around here" by the pastors (sic) and on the second occasion with another group of churches I was...

    "Extravagant Lifestyles" of Mega-Pastores Explored

    If you think I am a dog, you are definitely barking up the wrong tree, woof, woof. But thanks for the compliment anyway. I must be the only dog that can use a computer.
