I think that the burden was to explain Who God is like... And He's like Jesus. KJV 1 John 1 John's Reason for Writing 1 That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the Word of life; 2 (For the...

Seeing you're fond of quoting Jeremiah, here I think is what quietthinker was intending by the use of the word 'burden'... Particularly as it relates to people in ministry... KJV Jeremiah 20 9 .... But his word was in mine heart as a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I was weary with...

What it is not... Is a dissertation on theology. It wasn't written by a group of PhDs sitting in a communal classroom writing a doctorate/thesis on doctrine and dogma. The Bible is essentially a story...a narrative. Rather than written by scholars, it was more the result of a band of hippies...

And in answer to the original question in the OP, are earrings acceptable now to both genders... Well of course they are. But that question I would suggest is merely a cover for blatant promotion, as indicated in the following, an which are repeats ad infinitum of the same parkway traveled...

Hello my friend. I would be the absolute last person to deny Farouk, or anyone else, the right and freedom to express his views. On the same token, if we are going to disagree with them, we need a sound biblical reason for doing so and be not simply shooting from the hip just to be obnoxious or...

During his short two years here Farouk has posted (at a rough count) 4 threads advocating and promoting the wearing off earrings and other paraphernalia on the body. 6 threads advocating and promoting tattoos. 2 threads promoting hard Rock music. Two threads promoting smoking In those threads...

I have no issue with anyone wanting wedding rings. My issue is with a professed Christian who spends a great deal of energy time and focus on promoting worldly ideas and practices on a Christian forum and claiming it to be in harmony with scripture. And he has been doing that for the entire time...

I would rather suggest simply bad exegesis. James 2.2 has nothing to do with our topic here. There are numerous scriptures that offer better validation for the rejection of worldly ideals and practices than James 2.2 why anyone would use that beats me. Just as it beats me why you spend so much...

Was it mindless legalism that promoted the apostle John to say, KJV 1 John 2 15 Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and...

So I hear.

I guess it's just coincidence that a few months after being released from captivity and bondage, Israel was released also from those things that captivity had imposed upon them. Loving not the things of this world was not just a NT maxim it seems. And I guess this thread is about earrings...

Ear rings, nose rings, nipple piercing, whole body tattoos, cosmetics, fashionable clothing, all manner of jewelry, rock music, tobacco, cannabis, wine and beer, of course a young man or young woman can entertain all these things and remain a Godly person. Yeah, it's only the religious who...

When they stop serving their demonic masters.

There seem to be some legitimate concerns about some side effects and the urgency with which we need to respond to symptoms... Whether we think we or others are infected or not. And whether we think it's a hoax... Or not. Or whether we think it's a deliberate act of war... It not. Either way...I...

Please explain why receiving this particular mark is any different from the millions who have tattoos all over their bodies. Why is this particular mark so offensive to God more than any other sin that men have been committing for centuries if it is just a physical mark on the skin? And why is...

Was John writing for those of his day... Out was he writing to warm us who are reading him now?

You fellas know that formaldehyde is a disinfectant tight? And that it has been used in vaccines for babies for many years yeah?

There are things going on far deeper, more prophetic, and far more significant than what you can observe and deduce simply by watching the news.

Yeah, I know. I've heard and read the same thing. Just seems to me a contradiction. Like many it seems, I don't know any longer what to believe. And maybe even that is intentional. After all, Babylon means confusion right?. Partake of that wine, imbibe, soak in the information and focus on the...
