I don't get that so much any more, but I do understand where you are coming from... God has really helped me to avoid places and discussions which are really edifying no one at all. I slip on this sometimes. Who does not? Help us dear Lord!

Amen! There are other threads for lengthy disagreements, arguments and discussions.

Give God the glory!

Well instead of that my wife and I went to second hand stores shopping for clothes, used books, CD, DVDs. We found little you could call spectacular but we had a great time just the two of us sharing a nice breakfast and dinner. With being old and tired and having periodic health problems, it is...

Honestly what I am hoping to find is a person who would enjoy sitting down over a cup of coffee or whatever and simply talking about the things of God. I have been in several different places called churches most of my life but can count on one hand the number of people I have encountered [not...

Yes, I recognized that I did not belong there for the rest of time for quite a few years. I belonged while my pastor was in place because it was for that man and his wife that God brought my wife and me there in the first place. His wife died in 2012 and we thought... "well now our work here is...

Gathering in His name does bring Him into our midst. Fellowship with Him is not the same as fellowship with our secular co-worker, is it? How do we grow closer to God?

You still did not address my questions. What does it mean for 2 or 3 to be gathered in his name? That verse is shown in the gospel account to be actual words that Jesus spoke. What did he mean? Do you believe that you have done everything was necessary for the remainder of your allotted time as...

You simply restated what you had already said without addressing the rest on my post. You surely do not get baptized in water every time you press to be "in his name"? If you believe a person stays always in his name after that initial dunk in water, that would appear to me a statement in...

Eglon in Judges 3

The yoke is the bondage they put themselves into when people try put the words of the NT down in a set of black and white laws similar the laws God gave to Moses. Consider what Jesus brought: Life Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ...

But was it not a "script", effectively a yoke, that the natural children of Israel were unable to bear? "Now therefore why tempt ye God, to put a yoke upon the neck of the disciples, which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear?" Acts 15:10 Putting down and following black and white...

No, Jesus is speaking with Pontius Pilate the Roman Governor before whom the Jewish leadership [the high priest, the Sadducees & Pharisees included] brought Jesus hoping to have him 'legally' killed. The Apostle Paul writes about the authority which men, such as Pontius Pilate and even the Roman...

The Word became flesh [John 1:14] and we are to eat that Flesh [John 6:53]! Then when we eat of it and within us it is quickened by the Holy Spirit [II Cor 3:6] it builds/nourishes the 'new man' of us, if we have one. So what does it take for us to become like Him? "Beloved, now are we the sons...

@bbyrd009 Did anyone in the OT have the same name as Jesus?

Joshua!

Was she not selected to be his nanny or nurse after he was lifted out of the water?

Perhaps your name is Samuel?

It may be easier to accept that there are fake Christs/Jesus than to accept the reality of Him. Does not the reality needed to revealed to a person by God before it is accepted as reality? Many people probably jump on someone else's band wagon because they see so little themselves or know so...

Who was Hannah?
