    Cremation

    Are you saying that a dead body equates with energy? Ash's to ash's... :) Truly though, energy cannot be destroyed?? I'm a sciency type technophobe...splain plainly Lucy! :D

    Cremation

    Since I see no direct instruction in The Word about cremation...why would a Christian think it is wrong? Look at all those who have died in fires (many Christians as well)...nothing to bury ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. So, if a Christian chooses for various reasons to be cremated rather than buried or placed...

    Beards

    Well, it has become quite the "norm" for western women and, when we see a women who does not shave...it can kind of make one go ew? Conditioning. I'd like to know who came up with all that leg and pit shaving anyhow...has become a very lucrative business. Had to be a guy, lol...I would think...

    how can I love the lord & have faith when

    Agreed. There are definitely times I've wanted to just chuck it all but just as quickly, I remember how silly that is because, as Peter said to Jesus - "Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life." John 6:68 It's hard enough watching our own...

    how can I love the lord & have faith when

    "I too wonder how he can get glory from His suffering people" You know MJ, this has always been a question of mine when talked about, concerning the doctrine of Calvinism but, when talking about "Christians" suffering bringing Him glory, the only way I could see Him being glorified would be...

    Beards

    Women in many countries do not shave their legs or underarms. I saw it when I was visiting Italy when I was 12 years old. Was funny to me as, I'd never seen it. We were staying in a poorer village outside of Rome. I suppose women in the more cultured areas could have shaved?

    If You Believe Your Denomination Is...

    These are good questions. "In the end what is our doctrinal acceptances doing for us? What are we becoming"? "doctrinal acceptances"? Could be blind leading the blind? "What are we becoming"? I'd say pretty much the opposite of what we should be becoming. We're losing our...

    If You Believe Your Denomination Is...

    Do you believe God sends some to certain Church's for "a season"? Maybe for lessons we might not even realize until down the road. And, maybe it is NOT God sending people to certain Church's...I'm sure He is not sending His children to erroneous Church's...and I bet all of them would say that...

    Dare I ask this...

    What's even funnier than "Murder Feet" is the claim of being 55 million years old! Haha!

    prayers for mom

    I pray that your mother receive much relief from her pain, and healing for what is causing this. And the peace of God through it all. God bless and keep you all!

    Your Strength comes from Him..post a positive scripture!

    Amen! "...very present..." has always somehow meant 'instant' to me. So, we can rest in Him up until the nano second He lifts us up. Now, to rest in that kind of peace is something more than worth striving for...we just have to have faith and believe Him. :)

    Your Strength comes from Him..post a positive scripture!

    I'm sorry to hear that H2S, It cuts deep because we open ourselves to people we 'think' we can trust and, when they let you down, it's like a death really. I guess when God said "trust no man", we should prepare ourselves for these things happening...and if it was a sister in Christ, all the...

    Dare I ask this...

    I am sorry about that. Side effects are debilitating as the diagnosis sometimes! I do watch YouTube as well and am very selective, unlike a very "sensation oriented" younger sister, of mine who incessantly sends me all the- IMHO-garbage videos. I do know she means well but her discernment is...

    Rejoice in the Lord Always!

    Love this "...our imperfect earthly bodies--clay jars" Literally! Shine His Glory to the darkness that surrounds us, Amen! And, in the midst of all that darkness, we will still rejoice: Habakkuk 3:17 "Though the fig tree does not blossom, and no fruit is on the vines; though the produce of...

    Dare I ask this...

    Lol...there will always be another "crisis" so our eyes are once again, looking in the wrong direction...and yeah, the Opiod crisis, ha! A joke really, it's only hurting those who are in 24/7 365 pain. I also have a "Smart" tv, haha...thought I would buy one when I retired and, have very rarely...

    Rejoice in the Lord Always!

    Thank you! I would take 10 fervent prayers over a million dollars any-day! The waiting, the waiting! Don't you wish that we could see Him working all things to the good? How He works, behind the scenes, so to speak? But then, it has already played out before Him... ✝

    Dare I ask this...

    Yes Barny...it is hard but, I do like AP, Reuters and some of Al Jazeera...BBC as well as but not as often as NPR. My tv collects dust. Cable "news" is more opinion and division than anything. Plus, they HAVE to report on what the stations owners say as...it's all pay per view now, the real...
