    President Trump is fasting

    Your statement is true. What I said was whose policies more align with Jesus' teaching. If we vote, we usually only have the choice of the better of two flawed options.

    Dolly Parton Believed in God, but Was It the God of the Bible?

    I am not sure if you meant "saved" rather than safe. Paul does use "safe" in Phil 3:1 Finally, my brothers, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things to you is no trouble to me and is safe for you. The same idea is reflected in 2 Peter 1:10 Therefore, brothers, be all the more diligent...

    President Trump is fasting

    That's what is called the false dichotomy fallacy. A better question is whether a believer thinks Trump's policies more align with Jesus' teaching than Democrat policies do.

    Dolly Parton Believed in God, but Was It the God of the Bible?

    I agree with that. However, there are no perfect Christians ... if I judged who were in God's will according to my personal beliefs, very few would qualify. \When I worked as a school teacher, I taught all students the same thing, but my expectations of each student were not the same. God...

    30 Reasons To Quit Social Media

    You may not know that loneliness is a fact of life for many older people living on their own, especially when they have limited mobility. I hope you will remember this and make a point of reaching out to such people in your community ... it will be appreciated I am sure.

    Dolly Parton Believed in God, but Was It the God of the Bible?

    I understand what you are saying but I see people having different levels of consecration and sanctification. Some (I call them the elect) have a deeper spiritual understanding and commitment than others. The messages to the churches in Revelation chapters 2 & 3 indicate different groups in the...

    Beware Halloween is Approaching!

    I did not know that Christians celebrate Halloween.

    UK Journalist goes undercover, invades his own country by rubber boat dinghy

    The article confuses "Islamophobia" with racial prejudice ... and then proceeds to talk about only extremist views. The article does not mention that the Muslim population in the UK is increasing many times faster than the overall population. Nor does it mention that Muslim populations tend to...

    30 Reasons To Quit Social Media

    As a person with limited mobility, Facebook is a wonderful asset in my life. Our family uses it to share news & photographs. I have given access to only a small number of close friends I share with. I can see how it might be detrimental for those with other demands on their time but for older...

    Dolly Parton Believed in God, but Was It the God of the Bible?

    I am old enough to remember a similar conversation from nearly 50 years ago when Elvis Presley died.

    Dolly Parton Believed in God, but Was It the God of the Bible?

    I agree with your raising the question without being judgmental. Well known personalities can be role models for younger Christians. Encouraging them to ask whether the standards of people like Dolly Parton are the same standards God wants them to live by, is part of the maturing process...

    President Trump is fasting

    The bias is obvious in the first 30 seconds ... a waste of time

    Mary the Queen of Heaven?

    The OP contains a link to the article published on August 22, 2026 on the Diocese of Providence website "Memorial of the Queenship of the Blessed Virgin Mary". I would say the subject is worthy of consideration in the debate section on a Christian forum ... without denigrating the poster of...

    Daniel

    Another depiction of Daniel's story with human actors

    Daniel

    This is an AI movie ... which is a good way to portray the visions and miracles in Daniel's story. I am not sure if it has ads because I watched it on Youtube Premium.

    "What is Truth?"

    The Spirit will guide us into all truth ... through the means established by God to impart truth ... which is His inspired Word, the Scriptures. Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth. John 17:17 Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which...

    Who goes back with Jesus in the pre-tribulation rapture?

    I believe you are right to reference the messages to the 7 churches in Rev 2 & 3. It is quite easy to see this in any church ... there are committed believers living a consecrated life and there are those who are "lukewarm" I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou...

    Tithe

    If all we needed was the Spirit, then the Bible is irrelevant. The Spirit will teach the believer what the Bible means and how it applies to his life. The NT gives the permission to distinguish between the Commandments by repeating the moral laws.
