    The way I view church, music, and tithing are all changing

    I see you didn't mince any words Stan, however your judgment is a bit harsh don't you think?

    the evidence Of what you believe?

    It is Jesus who saves! When you hear that he does and believe it in your heart that is called faith. Trust the promise and you will sleep well, you will walk lightly and you will find yourself kissing more than railing. :)

    Lifesaver

    I don't know what's going on there but you can be sure that if you've tripped up, it'll be the devil's accusing voice you'll hear.....and this voice is mistaken for that of the Holy Spirit.

    Have No Idea What To Title This!

    You've hit a nail on the head re this matter sbg. We consider our paradigms sacrosanct and consign those who disagree with us of the devil and to the flames, quoting/dribbling on with selective chapter and verse while making a big song and dance about the Bible as if we have a...

    Will Fornicators Inherit God’s Kingdom?

    @Scott Downey ....and in my estimation you pursue this route because you have a dim view of the nature of the Kingdom of God.

    Will Fornicators Inherit God’s Kingdom?

    you are splitting hairs Scott......making an issue out of that which is not!

    Will Fornicators Inherit God’s Kingdom?

    The primary subjective driver of God's Kingdom is what happens in a persons mind/heart; who in reality their allegiance is fixed on. This is not solely about a cognitive interest. A cognitive interest alone fools the participant. Proverbs 18:2 describes this '“Fools have no interest in...

    sorry, you've lost credibility!

    Was God.....

    how does a dead man bring himself back to life?

    How & what are we to think?

    ahhhhhh, the Holy Spirit works all the time....even with and through donkeys and stones when required :)

    How & what are we to think?

    with respect, but did you expect some glory? Talking at people (preaching) with the assumption one knows is generally reserved for those in a pulpit. Patience means you stick around. Patience means 'a bruised reed he will not break or a smouldering wick he will not quench' Engage us with...

    Words of Wisdom

    it means tl_p, that if one's paradigm is aligned with the intentions of God, the pieces of the jigsaw puzzle (so to speak) will all fit together in time. ('in time' meaning, as ones understanding builds) It also means that if one's paradigm is not aligned with the intentions of God, one will...

    Don't call yourself a Christian when you live like the world.

    I have a little place in the forest (better than Denny's) :) It's open for all who wanna come and pow wow about the treasure not in 'earthen vessels' I cut my bread with a knife.....I can afford a knife :) ......and as far as opposing poopey-heads go, yeahhhh, it's a challenge all right; and...

    Was God.....

    You are quick to attempt to exonerate yourself Johann. There is no gain in violating context.....just a deeper hole!

    Let's Discuss our Adversary.

    I see.....and you want to control my input?....hmmmmm Not being fearful does not mean it is wise to toy/patronise with one who has sharper wits, greater intelligence and more experience than any mortal. Eve, in her perfect state tried it and got sucked in. You can be assured there is more...

    Was God.....

    Here is a weighty quote:- Thoughts to Ponder. 'No one need search for a programme of action or a crusade. The world and suffering humanity create the agenda for those who have eyes for human misery, ears for the stories of oppression and hearts to respond to the distress of our human family'...

    Was God.....

    Johann, I see you trust in your theology. What if your theology is faulty? Does that make Jesus faulty?.....does it make his ability to save to the utmost a failure? The criticism of each other in the Family of God is not helpful let alone the labelling another believer who struggles, with a...

    Let's Discuss our Adversary.

    Let's Discuss our Adversary. Let's not discuss our adversary! Our adversary desires to be the focus of our attention. Press of this nature gives him advantage while 'we' assume being on top of the game......so 'we' become putty in his hands. We have yet to learn how he works!

    Don't call yourself a Christian when you live like the world.

    All of us have negative self talk in some form. It either criticises or flatters.....and who can discern its source? We need insight, encouragement and hope.....the which does not come by pointing out the failures of others and patting oneself on the back....that principle is how the mindset of...
