From the article in your other post these are the prayers requested: Prayers are requested for Egypt, the largest country in the Arab world with the largest Christian community in the Middle East: • For current violence to end soon • For the re-establishment of effective rule of law and order...

If your experiences don't mesh with the teaching of the bible it is due to one of three things: Incorrect doctrine due to a misunderstanding of scripture, An elaborate deception by demons, or.Hallucinations. Many will explain away experiences such as these as a deception and/or hallucination...

Even though my church considers the Eucharist to merely be a symbol, I don't believe it that simple. There is a spiritual aspect to it.

Why would they stop there? If an alien appeared everyone of the world would believe what he says. But I'm not ready to jump to that conclusion, I merely see it as a possibility.

Should we be opposed to artificial intelligence?

I hope everyone knows that some degree of personal revelation is required to even become a believer. The Holy Spirit must first give you eyes to see before you can be convinced of the gospel. Without the nudging of The Spirit you will not accept the things of God, which includes scripture...

Is it a greater testimony to obey God based on what you've learned from the Bible or from what he has revealed through personal experience? It is better to obey God without needing the personal experience. John 20:29. Sometimes the calling is greater and so more direction is needed, this is...

Yes, children... They are people too, ones not yet jaded by the world pushing conflicting agendas. If even one person can decide what they believe it proves free will exists, I don't need to make myself the subject when a more simplistic proof exists. No one opens up your brain and implants a...

God is eternal, with time having no effect on him. That said, it’s my opinion that Jesus’ position within the trinity has never changed. Yet he is a man, and so had to be born. But that was done at a time and place of their choosing. Could it be that Jesus was eternal from the moment he was...

I see your point and agree. God does limit our choices. I can't just decide that I'm going to cure cancer and go do it. It would take a great deal of inspiration.

Children do this all the time, believing anything they are told. The only reason people don't blow to and fro like a leaf in the wind is if they are anchored. Some are anchored in their emotions, others in their desires, and many in some earthly authority. Few are left who fear the Lord, and...

I find the world an exhausting place with all of this conflict. Then I come here and I see more of the same. Searching on other forums I could find no rest. But then I was blessed with this little nugget. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZntjhXF42fs

What’s with the collapsing infrastructure lately? It seems like every time you check the news a building has collapsed. If a building hasn't collapsed then a bus, train, or plane has crashed. I don’t believe it to be coincidental; there must be some reason for all of this. I believe these...

I agree with Dodo's interpretation, might I add: The purpose of this scripture is to warn believers about the strife that will come about as a result of following Jesus. The Gospel is an unyielding sword that causes division; even to the point of separating families as the trailing verses...

Let the con-artist panhandlers degrade themselves begging on the streets. My God owns the cattle on a thousand hills and he can afford some theft. But woe to us if we allow these tricks to harden our hearts to the truly needy. Give to honor the Lord, and you will be rewarded in heaven, even...

Correlation or not his point is made. If there is no correlation that means gun control has no affect on crime rates and therefore there is no reason for increased gun control. If there is a correlation it is opposite of what was intended, meaning gun control is actually increasing crime rates.

I like that analogy, I can make an observation from it: Wisdom is the artistry of free will.

I would say he should face multiple counts of negligent homicide if it is determined that excessive speed was a main contributor to the crash and not poorly maintained equipment. Just because someone is speeding shouldn't make all actions automatically their fault. However a scapegoat will...

There was an event in 2011 called “TheCall.” It was a day long gathering for prayer and fasting to save our nation. I watched the event from home via webcast and added my prayers to the thousands of others. I watched the event for hours and every barrier was busted down by liaisons for the...

It stands to reason that if your no longer permitted to defend yourself there isn't a reason to carry a gun. It would be a back door means of gun control; why have a gun if your not permitted to defend yourself with it? Then it will be much easier to pass gun control legislation..
