Don't mean to answer for Dodo David, but for Christian doctrine, yep! Not saying there aren't other things worth reading and can't aid in what the Bible teaches.... But if they are worth anything, they will point to the Bible as it's foundation. Afterall, we are built upon the foundation of...

Ok.... Well, thanks for sharing. Purity: what are ECF's?

I'm still with you.... I'll comment later tonight. When you started speaking of "fear" as it pertains to God, one verse came to mind. I went to retrieve it from my Bible software and I was amazed how many times the theme of the verse was repeated. The verse I was thinking of was Proverbs...

I'm reading the KJV.... The same Bible that says, "Jacob have I loved, Esau have I hated." The same Bible where David said he hates God's enemies with perfect hatred. The same Bible where Paul "loved" his enemies by turning them over to Satan, and said the Lord will deal with them. The same...

Oh really? Ok, fine then. This is where you see the side of me you don't want to see. I don't accept christmas greetings because I don't believe in the holiday. Now, did you note I kindly thank people and let them know I can't accept them? Did you note that I give them back instead of...

It seems to me there is a difference between "watching" and trying to figure out that day with watching". The former seems to suggest, "just be ready". The latter seems to say "figure out the day, then plan accordingly." Just a theory, but God knows the general nature of humans to put off...

One thing that hasn't been mentioned is that the Apochrypha was part of the 1611 KJV and remained so until until 1885 according to one website I just checked. Why it was removed is subject to at least two theories: 1. It should've never been a part of the Bible in the first place, and 2...

I have resolved to let you have the last word on this.... I stand by my sources. However, I will hear what you have to say. I do have to make a comment though. I work in the public school system. Despite all the talk about taking Christianity out of the public schools, guess what? Christmas...

Ok, I'll try to keep up! I've read Malachi several times before but I'll have to reaquaint myself with it. Kinda wish you would've picked Amos.... I just did an in depth study of it! My only comment now is that in many ways, the problems you listed weren't new. For example, corruption of...

I look forward to what you have to say. I may have to later recant this thought, but it seems to me that many of the OT prophets were speaking of literal things in their own time. However, the lessons and true meaning of their prophecy apply to us spiritually and at times literally too.

I like what Purity said. In the spiritual and most important sense, however, the Kingdom has already come. It's within men, and the day Christ came to you the world ended for you (Luke 17:21). However, on the natural sense, people (myself included) are looking for the time when God gets tired...

Pilgrimer, I’ve been meaning to reply for quite some time. I’ve spent a lot of time fact checking and trying to run down sources of various statements that were made and researching various other things related to this topic. I have other spiritual studies to engage in, so I’m not going to post...

Yep.... It happens that way sometimes.

Who has ever been thrown out of heaven? Satan. Ok, then don't do what he did.

I think everyone who commits suicide should have to spend 1 to 3 years in jail.

Absolutely not. Homosexuality is a sin, and one could call it a crime against God, but it isn't a crime against of our Constitution. If you are going to say we should ban it because it's bad for our country, then we should start with banning unemployed people.

What about Joan of Arc?

By lust, do you mean sexual desires?

I liked rocky's post too

Yep, me too.
