In Healing the Masculine Soul, the author properly identified Communism as a feminine ideology. This is because it is rooted in theory (of equality) that goes against reality. He further states there is no more masculine trait than having the courage to express the truth of what is real, even...

In today's devotional reading, I came across David being betrayed by his son Absalom in usurping the throne, which made me thing about Betrayal In Bible & Loyalty in Today's Society. A few of many Biblical betrayals: David by Saul David by Absolam David by his concubines David by Joab (for...

In my Spirit led reading at 3 AM, which I wrote another thread to detail the event, I came across Zechariah 3:4. The NLT translation says the Angel has taken away sins. I read that Jews condemned Jesus for forgiving sins, claiming only God can forgive sins. Then later we read Jesus delegating...

So, I've been wanting to write this all day. At 3 AM last night I had a powerful dream. I have 2 dogs, a 55 lb Chow Shepherd mix and an 80 lb American Bull dog. In the dream I was living in a high rise apartment building with cinder block walls. I was on the phone, learning my dogs had escaped...

There is a Psalm that says woe is from the LORD. I find a big contrast between Jesus saying ‘love your enemies’ with the LORD sending an evil spirit to Saul in 1 Samuel 16:14, 18:10, 19:9 (NSRV). I’ve heard this metaphorically indicates Saul had mental illness but I’m not reading these verses...

This has been on my mind for a while. If someone is living right with God, they show it by living with such humility as to bring tears to those who are paying attention. I'll start off sharing 3 examples. Rush Limbaugh: Just heard the podcast by Bo Sneardly. The day he announced to his staff...

Once Saved Always Saved Forever Virgin Mary Absolute Equality Between the Father and the Son These are some topics that if you accept the doctrine, you can find passages that seem to support it. However, this is not the same as an explicit Biblical teaching, e.g., Roman 3:21-25. We are made...

We should not and need not abandon the field of evidence to the lost enemies of our Lord. See Psalm 19. In that thread, I made the following points. While faith is the evidence of things unseen, there is evidence to be seen. (In this thread, I want to compile the evidence.) Are you required to...

In today's devotional reading, I came across Psalm 89:38, 51 which speaks of God's anointed. I know Saul and then David were also anointed. Does anyone know how many people in the Bible were Anointed by God?

Below is a compelling video on subtlety and nuance of language that I think is lost on many Americans today who are used to overstatement. Before the Potsdam Conference, America issued a demand for the unconditional surrender of Japan. The US learned this was taken as a threat to the emperor...

Please explain how one is to use the feature "Follow People." Do their posts automatically show up in Alert? Or is there some other way to access their posts using this feature?

In today's devotional reading, I came across this verse. 31 “Shim‘on, Shim‘on, listen! The Adversary demanded to have you people for himself, to sift you like wheat! Luke 22:31 (CJB) According to the NSRV, parallel verses are found at Job 1:6-12, Am 9:9. I find the notion of the LORD giving...

In another thread, a poster remarked how Jesus in Scripture is not always lovable, kind or meek. Our feminized society has profoundly attacked masculinity - even calling it toxic. A pastor once gave a Sermon and said Jesus is the ultimate in masculine in that he sacrificed himself to save...

This is probably the most common expression by Christians that is not in the Bible but is it Scriptural? I've heard strong arguments for and against this and wonder what those in our community think? Here is another article for your consideration. Love the Sinner, Hate the Sin? Why Christians...

This is an amazingly powerful story. An atheist is dying. The Lord shows his mother he is dying. She prays for him to ask God to forgive him. He sees her in a vision her praying for him. His final act in life is to do as his mother prays, he prays with his heart for the Lord to forgive him. He...

I'm not sure if this is the right forum for this but I found this testimonial fascinating. Activist Milo Yiannopoulos is now ‘Ex-Gay,’ consecrating his life to St. Joseph Milo was always a guy I could not help but like. He is charismatic but lived a live of debauchery. He will be hated as a...

Because I know we all have our Bibles, I will not clutter this post with my preferred translation but only cite the relevant verses. Read carefully Acts 2:38; Acts 8:12; Acts 8:16; Acts 10:48; Acts 19:5; Acts 22:16; Romans 6:3; 1 Corinthians 1:13; Galatians 3:27. Then ask yourself the question...

In another thread I made the statement that in reality, most things are not equal and that (false or artificial or forced) Equality is evil, which is why there is scant reference in the Bible. The Bible emphasizes the importance of the unequal at nearly every turn, i.e., Holy. In the booklet...

Is there a way to change the translation of the Bible when I hover over it or is only one translation available? Not too fond of ye's and thou's, etc, of middle English.

When I go to Biblegateway.com, I came across this verse and wanted to get your take on it. Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. No one has ever seen God; if we love one another, God abides in us and his love is perfected in us. 1 John 4:11-12 (ESV) God abides in us...
