@Cassandra Did your family that you mentioned not like smoking, then? often ppl don't, so visitors keep their packs in their pockets. I guess the patch kept you going while you were with them.

@Cassandra It's true to say that everyone - in whatever situation - is either a missionary or a mission field... :)

@Cassandra So vaping definitely seems to have helped you cut down...

Wrangler: The point is also that Scriptures such as Romans 8 are full of truth and doctrine; there is no point in implying that somehow truth and doctrine don't matter in spiritual things.

Hi @Wynona There is a musical version of Psalm 51 by Allegri...

The Lord indeed searches the heart (Jeremiah 17)...

@VictoryinJesus I do love that phrase: 'So He bringeth them to their desired haven'. :)

@VictoryinJesus Sorry that it hurts you to vape. @FluffyYellowDuck recently said it seems to help her cut down on nicotine but of course individual needs can vary a lot. Of course with you having asthma it must be a particular situation.

@MatthewG Well, I was using the Thompson Chain ref. several years ago and had heard of it several years before that; but you know what? I haven't used it recently, because the very useful notes are in such small print which was fine when I got it but in recent years my eyesight hasn't been up to...

@MatthewG I've used the Thompson Chain ref. quite a bit; lots of useful info. in the margins and appendices.

@MatthewG No one strictly needs to have a tattoo. But there is plenty of historical precedent for those who do. For some demographics now it's especially widespread, e.g., military spouses, often done in faith, patriotic and family themes. GillDouglas said: christianforums dot com For so...

@MatthewG Such a lot in Romans, right? :) Promises to enjoy and promises to proclaim. One can't proclaim them truly until they are already enjoyed...

Back a bit @FluffyYellowDuck Like you said, there's lots of examples there. Like I was saying earlier, I do think that if an adolescent young woman does want to put some simple rings in her ears it would be a bit mean for parents to stop her. Or young man, for that matter. (I just don't get...

@FluffyYellowDuck Sounds like you and your son are talented musicians... It's interesting to remember that originally the Psalms were intended to be sung.

@FluffyYellowDuck My wife looks forward to the season when pumpkin spice muffins are on sale...

@Marvelloustime Such a lot in Psalm 27; ppl often quote the first verse...

@MatthewG The language of Scripture is so rich.... "...promises..." "...precious promises..." "...great and precious promises..." "...exceeding great and precious promises..."

@Waiting on him I do think in this connection 1 Corinthians 10.32 is very helpful as a reminder of the three different groups of ppl: Jews, Gentiles and the church of God.

@Mantis Such a lot of good quotes from Romans 8..... Great to read the chapter all at once, as well...

@Waiting Oh of course, you and @VictoryinJesus are very artistic; and I guess the fall colours are an inspiration. The seasons make me think of Genesis 8.22... "While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease."
