    AI, need a little help over here understanding this confusing mess. Thanks..

    Please don't confuse AI with God. AI gets some biblical doctrines hopelessly wrong.

    AI, need a little help over here understanding this confusing mess. Thanks..

    God does a pretty good job of preserving His Word. It is totally protected and eternal, as is God Himself. Psa 119:89 Your word, O LORD, is everlasting; it is firmly fixed in the heavens. 1Pe 1:25 but the word of the Lord stands forever.” And this is the word that was proclaimed to you.

    I am not new here, but new from today

    The faceinto of Worthy Christian Ministries reveals a posture of prophetic engagement—an epistemic orientation toward influence, intercession, and global reach. It’s not merely a directional glance; it’s a full-bodied immersion into the spiritual and sociopolitical currents shaping faith...

    Why was "the Tree" placed in the center of the garden (orchard)

    Perhaps to those with a flair for the esoteric, but not to those schooled in biblical theology.

    John 6 Was Jesus speaking literally

    These sort of ad hom fallacies have no substance in logic, and are not "real food" such as the spiritual nourishment obtained from Jesus, He spoke about “real food” in ways that upended conventional definitions—He redefined nourishment not just as physical sustenance, but as spiritual...

    Is anybody listening?

    What about all the PTSD the News causes? Who cares about that? It just keeps invading our peace if we let it. Then the schismatics take over and refuse to be placated. “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called children of God.” (Matthew 5:9) This isn’t just a call to avoid...

    A Lot Of Things Have Happened

    A general sense of worldwide spiritual strain and pressure several times in Sunday Evening Services over the years. Sitting in the congregation. Well attended. Songs and notices over.

    Can a pastor have depression?

    For edification: Roman Catholicism considers despair a sin primarily because it contradicts the theological virtue of hope and reflects a false understanding of God's nature—especially His mercy, justice, and faithfulness. ️ Theological Basis in Catholic Doctrine According to the Catechism of...

    BEWARE OF THE SPIRITUALIZERS HERE

    Fallacies of logic in your post noted, but Christians are definitely exhorted to look forward, as follows: Titus 2:13 “Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ”. It’s a radiant expression of Christian eschatological longing—an...

    BEWARE OF THE SPIRITUALIZERS HERE

    Best not to be confused by the tension between the imminence and the cosmic scope in Jesus’ language. Matthew 10:23 — “Ye shall not have gone over the cities of Israel, till the Son of man be come.” Context: Jesus is sending out the Twelve on a mission to preach, warning them of persecution...
