    Silly question, but a thought provoking one:

    Stress was a major factor in me taking early retirement 21 years ago... but I move on. The stress is not from worry. My brain simply cannot process some things very well when too many of them hit me too fast. I purposely slowed way down and where it is important, my wife has learned to take up...

    Thank you for the tag.

    Prayer for Amadeus

    Thank you for this!

    Silly question, but a thought provoking one:

    Very well! So then that is where you are. My place is neither with the Catholics nor the Oneness Jesus Only group although I have been in both places. I will leave it at that as it is not for me an AT [Absolute Truth].

    I really believe that he @Bob Estey does... give attention to scripture that is. It is just that apparently what you call scripture or what I call scripture may be different than what he calls scripture: So then since we do live for God by faith, "the substance of thing hoped for and the...

    Silly question, but a thought provoking one:

    Are all doubters guilty of blasphemy? If yes, then probably we would all be guilty! Do you for example doubt that your prayer for a person deceased in his flesh could result in his resurrection in the flesh?

    Paul

    Amen! You my friend caught my favorable attention from the time I first saw you arrive here. It is not that I agree with you on every point. Rather it is that you sincerely stand where you do even if no one else seems to be on your side. Is that not the stand Jesus was taking? "From that time...

    Silly question, but a thought provoking one:

    "You guys...? What are you talking about here with me? The nature of God as in Oneness versus Trinity? In spite of the OP, I was really was not focusing on that subject at all but more generally about everything of God that is unknown or unclear to men. For whom will they be opened? God...

    Praying now for all of you.

    Death penalty.

    No! This happened about 35 years ago. We fed them a good meal and gave them a place to sleep for one night. They said they were broke and needed to get to Tulsa Ok in order to supposedly catch a bus to someplace down south...where they would get the money from her sister to repay us for the bus...

    Prayer for Amadeus

    Thank you sister! In this world of men, we are each other's comfort, but even in this without God we could not make it... Praise His name!

    Prayer for Amadeus

    Thank you sister! My wife is really impatient for something more definite, but as I have told her, it does no good. We cannot see the doctor sooner and we cannot have anymore tests or other actions until we have seen him. She understands that as well as I do, but she worries more about me than...

    Prayer for Amadeus

    We move on from day to day, sister, trusting in God. Unless something drastic happens we won't know anything more until I see a specialist on November 1st. Without God we would be in a whole lot of trouble. Give God the glory!

    Death penalty.

    The one time my wife and I actually took in a young homeless couple for a night and gave them money taught us a hard lesson about that. We have never done anything like that again. God helped us that time...

    Death penalty.

    Hmmm? I wonder if we may presume that this guy delivered to the tormentors had unstated sources of income that the work of the tormentors would convince to turn over...? "And his lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentors, till he should pay all that was due unto him." Matt 18:34 But...

    Death penalty.

    Oh but some likeable people can be trusted. How does one separate the tares from the wheat? Are we to wait until the harvest? What do you think? Perhaps it is a wrong application of the parable? "Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers...

    Can you survive the upcoming great tribulation?

    "What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?" Rom 8:31 What does it take to stay always on God's side? "But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you." Matt 6:33

    Death penalty.

    Back again then to the question of how many times should we forgive someone who have offended us. I have not always allowed them to "enter my home" again but... one wonders at times. When I was on active duty in Viet Nam, a very personable likeable fellow arrived and was assigned to our...

    Death penalty.

    I heard about such things and perhaps even read some testimonies. My memory fails me on details any more. I hope that all of the good ones were true!
