    The Nanny State

    I have never ever heard of that happening. Off road yes...but I don't do that sort of thing. And if I did I would need a five point harness. Completely different scenario.

    The Nanny State

    They even control who can buy stocks in which manner. I was shocked when I was slapped with a label "Pattern Day Trader" and then acted as if it was a bad thing. And I was like "YES,...And how else are you supposed to do this? And what is wrong with being a day trader?" I found out that they...

    Why do we call the Father, the Creator ..when the Son should have that title also?

    Well...if a person is dead then they have that whole despair thing going on...they NEVER will have hope. And those who don't believe it today have no hope. So...I tend to think it matters.

    Why do we call the Father, the Creator ..when the Son should have that title also?

    Yes...yes it most definitely does. Because if Jesus is not God then He is a liar. But Jesus is not a liar. Jesus is God and King.

    Why Do We Sin?

    It's one of those mysteries surrounding Jesus. Jesus is fully man and fully God at the same time. But basically the "man" in Jesus was tempted. Man is corrupt. (Deceitful heart) But Jesus overcame the temptations. And did a "smackdown" on Satan.

    Why Do We Sin?

    Our hearts are the most deceitful above everything else. That's why. No matter how hard we try we are going to fail. But...the effort to stop is part of the reason we get salvation.

    NORTH INDIA MINISTRY

    The Gospel message continues to move West out of China and into India... Not too much longer before it races out of the mountains and across the desert. But Prayers are given.

    How Can God Love Them And Be Angry with Them?

    Corporate guilt vs individual guilt. And God is good. God is always good. Anytime you make God bad you are in error. God is so busy being good He doesn't have any time left for being bad. (And God is timeless...that ought to twist your biscuit for a minute or two) But what you have failed...

    Did Jesus have a limitation to the Holy Spirit before being Baptized?

    Shema... Hear oh Israel, The Lord, The Lord God is one. Jesus is not the Holy Spirit but He is God. The Holy Spirit is not Jesus but He is God. The Father is not Jesus or the Holy Spirit but He is God. It's not a pantheon of Gods...but ONE God. Plural in magestey but One God. It's not...

    The Nanny State

    For whatever reason... We allow trapeze artists and gymnastics competition... daredevil jumps and people to go out and homestead wilderness areas. All of which are extremely dangerous activities...more risk than I would want to enjoin... But when it comes to certain things the Government sees...

    The Nanny State

    I'm going to rant for a bit... Seat Belt laws are what I'm talking about. Now I don't wear one...I drive a pickup truck and ignore the ding while going down the road...it eventually gives up. I've gotten tickets for not wearing one...but did I learn? Nope. Not going to either. But I...

    Why Do Christians Judge Others?

    The Greek language was a very precise language in many ways...and in others it is incomplete. And especially because of the age of it and in another culture...the thoughts in the scriptures don't become very clear to us "modern" people. But basically when Jesus was saying this he was talking...

    What Do We Do About False Teachings?

    There are several people who think they are Christian all the while being blasphemers. They deny the Trinity, the Diety of Jesus. They do something blasphemous with the gospel message...you shouldn't have anything to do with those people...they are Dead spiritually and want to kill you...

    Why do we call the Father, the Creator ..when the Son should have that title also?

    And if all you want to do is argue against the Trinity... You are going on ignore too...I don't have anything to do with those who don't believe in the Trinity...they are blasphemous.

    Why do we call the Father, the Creator ..when the Son should have that title also?

    Colossians...first chapter. Try around vs 15-17

    It is time for you to learn who Mystery Babylon is

    Well there @Base12 ... That's a unique perspective. And there's some reasonable logic to your assertions. I'm not exactly sure if I believe as you do... But kudos on having some logic for the concept.

    Why do we call the Father, the Creator ..when the Son should have that title also?

    Jesus said that "All authority in Heaven and on Earth has been given unto me" and I know better than to doubt anything that Jesus says. And if you don't...well you may not believe that the freight train is going to come down the railroad tracks but...that ain't gonna stop it from doing it either.
