    Presidential Election Live Coverage 2020

    No, God has not changed...ever. I am listening not as a stranger I hope but rather as a sheep and hearing His voice. I am in His army and I follow orders but so far I have not been ordered to confront the enemy some people here apparently believe they are seeing. Someone is always willing to...

    CHRISTMAS TREE

    To me pumpkin pie is one of my downfalls toward a place of gluttony. I love it and would eat it anytime of the year, be it sweet or savoury. To me it may well be both. I do not bake pies myself as a rule and do not ask for it anytime but at Thanksgiving and Christmas and usually I get it at no...

    what do you do on your free time?

    @Holy999 What time do we have that is 'free'? Does it not all really ultimately belong to God? We are stewards of what He has given us including time. Until and if we inherit, do we really own anything at all? We may have been moved into a place as a potential heir, but when does that change?

    covidcovidcovidcovidcovidcovidcovid

    No, because I have not the endurance to read through the multitude of posts on this forum these days. Some threads I skip altogether because of the title. I need some basis for sifting through them so as to read what God would want me to read according to my available time and endurance. I do...

    Consider how heavily the Covid 19 and the Election threads are frequented and how little the prayer threads. Where is our primary focus? Help us dear Lord!

    Poll: Tattoo art - Christian perspectives: Fight it? Ignore it? appreciate/embrace it?

    Glad to please! I am really hoping that they will open the door to him here again soon. Unfortunately sometimes his words really were very pointed, rude and as you say, vulgar. Sometimes people did not even know they really were being insulted or other thought they were being insulted when they...

    I Have the SHINGLES!!! Help!

    As I recall she went to soft food or soup not requiring a big workout in the mouth before swallowing.

    I Have the SHINGLES!!! Help!

    My wife had it before. She was having problems and thinking it was her teeth went to the Dentist. He discovered the shingles inside of her mouth and referred her to a regular MD. She was miserable for a while.

    CHRISTMAS TREE

    Once we had gone back to having a tree we always had one each year until a few years ago in our present apartment. We bought a small artificial tree when we moved into this apartment in 2012. It wasn't long before my wife [Kathy] could not spend too much time on things like that. I had only...

    Poll: Tattoo art - Christian perspectives: Fight it? Ignore it? appreciate/embrace it?

    Several people did, but just discussing a former member removed got a couple of my posts deleted the last time I did it. For some people who did not understand him he was accused of not being a follower of Christ, a Christian. That was/is most certainly an error.

    Poll: Tattoo art - Christian perspectives: Fight it? Ignore it? appreciate/embrace it?

    As our dear departed [from this forum] @bbyrd009 might have described your #2 type, those in pursuit of "death more abundantly" whereas Jesus brought the opportunity for "Life more abundantly"

    i just need the knowledge...

    @Holy999 But consider that without which, in spite of knowledge, you would be nothing at all: "And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing." I Cor 13:2

    Poll: Tattoo art - Christian perspectives: Fight it? Ignore it? appreciate/embrace it?

    While I agree that the many sometimes very repetitive polls have gotten old also for me I generally avoid most of them. They may not be as tiring as the very many threads these days on election fraud and Covid 19. If only there was as much interest in the prayer threads and the real discussions...

    Can someone explain this to me?

    What did they see? And what do we see? "And he said, I beseech thee, show me thy glory. And he said, I will make all my goodness pass before thee, and I will proclaim the name of the LORD before thee; and will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will show mercy on whom I will show...

    feasts of charity?

    No, I am Not sure that you are a goat. What I perceived was an attack against a sister in the Lord in whom I have never personally seen any purposeless attack directed at any one. In her post #40 she asks you to explain what you saw as offensive in her OP. Perhaps you really thought you saw...

    CHRISTMAS TREE

    The Lord will lead us rightly if we really are willing and able to submit ourselves to him. When I asked my good friend and brother, the one who won us to the Lord as well as the one who took us to that assembly to start for advice, he had good advice for us but he would not speak directly...

    Is God Really All Loving?

    Nor I, but there are some who I have avoided after an encounter or two. Again sometimes I have tried to do that , avoid, and God has pushed me back into the confrontation. It may not seem to be easy, but then again it can and should be easy if and when we are trusting God and following where He...

    Is God Really All Loving?

    When and if there is nothing good in nor hope for a person and we are able by what God has clearly revealed to us then perhaps it is not only permitted, but required to hate the person. God sees the heart knowing what if anything is good. Is that why He finally rejected King Saul and told Samuel...

    Presidential Election Live Coverage 2020

    Of course there are those who have never known Jesus at all. They would be I suppose the unbelievers who remain dead in the eyes of God. Then there are those who have met Jesus and love him. How many from among those have already passed from a "through a glass, darkly" vision to the "face to...
