@dhh712 I think a key to what you say is in Psalm 73.16-17; the holiness of God:

@Lizbeth Good, general reference to the principle of Matthew 7.14. @Mantis also has a valid point: It's also an especially strong expectation among certain demographics, such as nurses (who use them as ice breakers with patients and their families), military wives (who often express faith...

Hi @dhh712 ; oh, so maybe you know Fallingwater? :) I haven't been there yet; would like to go. My wife and I have been in Pa. several times but Fallingwater is still on the To Do list.......

The Hollywood movie Spy Game (2001), with Robert Redford and Brad Pitt, is partly based on the US attempt to kill Sheikh Fadlallah in 1985. As background, here is a quote — which is completely unedited — showing attempts at the ruthless exercise of neo-colonial business as usual in the Middle...

@Lizbeth Yes, great verses there.........

A chillingly effective narrative on the supposed inadvisability of speaking truth to power: R. Redford and M. von Sydow - playing a CIA assassin - in 'Three Days of the Condor':

Hi Sir; good to see you on the forums. Great avatar photo, BTW; do you know what the species is called? :)

@David H. Great verse there! :)

Hi @Pearl I like what C H Spurgeon said: "By faith the wilderness can become the suburbs of heaven". :)

@Mantis So did you paint this recently? :)

@Lizbeth It would probably be very widely accepted that the supposedly "unlady-like" character of tattoos - especially if tasteful and faith-based - is untenable today. Some generations ago, people with a hyperconservative mindset might have claimed supposedly that "nice Christian ladies don't...

@Lizbeth Reminds me of Galatians 4.26: "But Jerusalem which is above is free, which is the mother of us all."

PS: @Lizbeth I think the supposedly 'unlady-like' thing from one of the quotes just given, above, is an increasingly hard position to maintain, IMHO...........

Hi @Lizbeth I guess this is one of the things which different Christians - as per Romans 14 issues of Christian liberty - are likely to have a whole range of viewpoints about; and sometimes those viewpoints even develop over the years. Waiting on him said: ↑ Heart2Soul said: Nancy said: ↑...

@Lizbeth Good to stick to the simplicity of Acts 2.42 activities, right?

@Lizbeth Sorry about the typo.............. :) Thanks for pointing it out..........

@Heart2Soul who started the thread said that she is considering the matter from within the framework of her doctor's advice. Good to keep doctors' advice in mind. If the video is watched to the end, it's clear that medical advice can be quite cautionary.

@Mantis I thought this newspaper article's quote from Paula Castle was interesting: James McCarthy, Mirror dot co dot uk

You are wrong in what you say about the Deity of Christ. Hebrews 1 says: 'Unto the Son He saith, Thy Throne, O God, is for ever and ever'. There are many similar verses. God in Three Persons is deeply present in Scripture: end of Matthew 28; John's Gospel throughout; John's First Epistle...

@Miz KJV Only FYI........did you see the recent poll, above?
