I hope you do well, but just a suggestion here as I noticed you contending with a member already since your appointment: As a moderator, don't argue. Simply warn or implement. If people argue in return remind them that that also is against rules. Refer them immediately to the PM system for...

Really very sorry to see you go. While I agree with much of your reasoning, remember that things simply will not always go the way our minds think that they should. Remember also that God is always accomplishing that which pleases Him... in spite of men and men's ways. Just stay in love with...

Thank goodness for that! LOL! ...I also mean that the hair needs to be on the back of my head!

@Justin Mangonel @HeRoseFromTheDead @Wormwood Related to the OP and subsequent posts consider that while God has certainly given ministers as per: "And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; For the perfecting of the saints, for the...

I did the same thing a long time ago. I had even forgotten there was such a thing until the subject came up here...

Both of our children were born before we started serving God together. With the first one, a boy, my wife's mouth was like yours. To appease me she had cut way back on her 'sailor's mouth, but when she was in the hospital and the pain started her appeasement ceased and she let the hospital know...

Yes, helping others is good and it not a limited actions taken only by those born from above [born again]! My wife who has been very susceptible to illness and accident prone all of her life has always helping others... sometimes to our own apparent disadvantage. She was doing this when we met...

In spite of the at times physical discomfort and sickness my wife always has said that she loved being pregnant. I guess you can relate.

@My Dreams Sorry for that unfortunate event. I am praying for your and your family.

My wife craved Mexican food during her first pregnancy. I would get home from work and at her earnest urging would drive her to a Mexican restaurant. We enjoyed the meal. On the way home she would ask me to pull over to the curb. She would open her door and vomit her meal. This became a regular...

My wife smoked when we first married, but shortly she became pregnant and could not tolerate smoking. She did not so much quit as simply could not stand it. We were not serving God at the time! [Married 1972, met Jesus in 1976.]

Balderdash!

Fiddlesticks!

There are a few who know truth and want to know more. Remember Elijah who told God that he was the only one. God set him straight on that telling him that were 7,000 besides him. God shares the parts of His plan with you that you need to know when you need to know them... if you are listening to...

So stop looking at those people in their cliché modes and their false teachings and deceptions. Look rather to Jesus: "Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of...

So then even what is God's purpose for men? How much of the plan, God's plan, are we able to see or understand? God gave Moses the plan to build a tabernacle in the wilderness and Moses using the hands of gifted men accomplished God's purpose, but the plan now is not to be built with hands...

You insist that there is no one that does not sin today, but for how many hearts of the billions today are you privy to all that is happening within? What can God Not do in a man who simply surrenders to Him? "And Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with God: for...

Without "eyes to see" you cannot be 'shown' because you cannot see such a person if even if he stands right before you. The example of Jesus and Pontius Pilate shows us the blindness of unbelievers but some who claim to be believers are equally blind because they lack faith thus quenching the...

Here is something I wrote down a number of years ago, which may help: What is Church [Ekklesia]? God can come to us alone in our closet with Him in prayer, but a very precise promise is given to us by Jesus in these words: "For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I...

It is a Greek word used in scriptures prior to translation into English. Because of sometimes poor translations or understanding sometimes people use the original word instead of 'church' or some other English word. You may look up the meaning yourself but below is one that I copied and pasted...
