I wouldn't say that my family was really "practicing" Catholicism, myself, and my 2 older sibs were made to go on Sundays, w started to skip after awhile...grabbed that weeks bulletin and left. Watched across the way, in a plaza until everybody started coming out...then went home...yeah, we...

Are you saying to even be tempted to consideration, but not acting on the temptation would be considered sin to us?

"Sister I was taught that all I needed was a little splash of water on my head that first time. " Lol John! Me too...Italian Irish born :/ ahaha "but what is it that God says? That is what matters, is it not?" For sure...of the utmost importance. " wait on God." That is the best way for me to...

I have always believed in the Trinity. I must say, I cannot even remember what post I was replying to here but, pretty sure it had no bearing on the Trinity...it all kind of morphed into water/Spirit baptism though...and yes, of course-faith is what saves...Old and New Covenant.

Great advice! Welcome to the forum :)

If Jesus was not 100% God and 100% man, the human part most surely was tempted by Satan in the desert. If He was fully and only God, there would be no temptation. Hebrews 4:15 King James Version (KJV) 15 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our...

Is not the "world" considered those who are following Satan? And, the earth is a planet...?

I don't know Amadeus, I have been taught that we will have the H.S. living inside us the second we receive Jesus as Lord and Savior. I don't understand the baptism in the Holy Spirit, not how it is supposed to work or how one gets this. If it has something to do with being pushed on the...

So He was tempted in His human nature, His Spirit held Him firm every time.

@Truth , my prayers are ever with you and Cheryl brother, for comfort and peace as well as no pain for Cheryl. So much sadness in this world and I am so happy it will not be like this forever. God Bless and Keep you Truth.

We do not receive our forgiveness in increments. Like you said, we are new creatures in Christ, if indeed we are of Him. I still will in my head, or out repent of like, an unkind thought about someone, a selfish thought and such. It is hard to get away from the "Oh please forgive me Lord's"...

Lol...I must admit that, yes, well established :) Also one must always keep in mind that vaping is different from person to person. Many like the fruity flavors of the liquid. Some like the different type of tobacco flavors. It can be a trial and error thing to begin with-some like lots of...

This is the site I spent many years on to learn of the E-cig. It is one of the largest forums in the world and any and every question you might have about the e-cig, will be answered here: E-Cigarette Forum

People have to realize that it is not the nicotine that kills you, it's the carcinogens and many, many chemicals, and tar that kills. Nicotine just hooks you. Cigarettes even have embalming fluid in them. What's In a Cigarette? There are approximately 600 ingredients in cigarettes. When...

I suppose I should look back on these posts. I have cut down on the nicotine levels over the years but, I will not get rid of them altogether anytime soon, lol. I enjoy them and my many years of reading any and all things e-cig, I am convinced they (if allowed) kill the tobacco companies. I...

Ha!!! You are quicker than I on many things...if it is over my head, I re-read with prayer, sometimes I "get it" and sometimes I have to move on to the more simple :oops:;)

BTW- My personal belief is to also give above and beyond when you are able to! If He so deems fit to bless us financially, it is not for our own selfish gain but, to bless others with. ♥

"Let every person give as they have purposed in their hearts. " <---Fully agreed! I hope you, Epi., are not a proponent of those who tell one to "give till it hurts". No cheerfulness in that.

The hope I have is also about living in a place/realm/whatever that has no pain and suffering, where there is no sickness or evil and His perfect Justice will be forever. A place where we have hope of being with our loved ones who have gone on before us...not so much "stuff" lol.
