    Poll: Best age for first tattoo?

    In what was the motive of the people here? "And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth." Gen 11:4 They failed to do something that is always important...

    And who is part of or is to be a part of the Body of Christ?

    "And he [Jesus] is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence." Col 1:18 "... even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body." Eph 5:23 Therefore as the church is subject unto...

    Poll: Best age for first tattoo?

    At least it is widespread among people who call themselves Christians, but how many bearing that label have really put first things first in the order that God would prescribe them? "But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you." Matt...

    Faith or sin

    Or even perhaps which ones did he need to confess? Once he effectively proclaimed his own righteousness in supporting his own ways rather God's Way: "Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him: but I will maintain mine own ways before him." Job 13:15 At the end of the book he hears from God...

    Faith or sin

    I don't know the final end as our last contact with anyone from there was many years ago. At that time the sister who spoke with her was still telling my wife that we would be back because it was where we belonged. Well, neither myself nor my wife ever had any inclination to return and we have...

    ..Back in the Days...

    I was listening to Pat Boone, Paul Anka, Johnny Cash, Marty Robbins; Peter, Paul & Mary, and several others whose names don't come to me at the moment.

    Faith or sin

    I was led to God but the church was where a good brother took me. He had never even visited the place before but it was similar to his denomination in basic beliefs. That brother was a man of God, but not a preacher. He was a black man and when he visited us periodically [he lived about 60 miles...

    ..Back in the Days...

    I remember having milk delivered to us in glass bottles. He nearly always came long before I got up in the morning but sometimes I would put out the clean empty bottles the night before for him to replace with full ones. My mother would skim the cream off the top of the newly open bottles of...

    ..Back in the Days...

    I do well remember the serials. I wanted to see every one but there was no theater in our little town. To go to the movie without our parents we had to ride the bus 8 miles each way. We were allowed to if we could come up with the money. The bus was cheap but I did not often have any money...

    ..Back in the Days...

    Other than Dick Tracy none of them ring a bell for me, but you were in the UK and I was in California. I would guess that each country and likely even each regional within a country built up their own set of programs for kids. International commonalities would have been on the rare side.

    Faith or sin

    Oh there is no doubt about that. And now I pretty much know the whys but that is also no simple short story either...

    Faith or sin

    You were apparently born to be a skeptic my friend. That I would guess is for you a gift. What you could not stand for two years others have taken for different reasons, some likely bad and others quite good. For me the first non-Catholic church where I was home taught me a lot of things which I...

    ..Back in the Days...

    I cannot remember the very first one but I had an uncle who when he was in high school used to take us to the movie theater where they always played triple features on Saturday afternoons at a discounted price of about 25 cents a person. We loved to go see three Tarzan movies starring Johnny...

    ..Back in the Days...

    At home in small town California I remember having a bathtub in the house... but visits to grandma's house were different. She lived on well water with indoor plumbing but only an outhouse about 50-75 yards behind her house in the country. For bath time [at least for us kids] she set up a large...

    ..Back in the Days...

    I remember coming home from school sitting on the floor near the big console radio and listening to some of my favorite programs: The Shadow, The Lone Ranger, Inner Sanctum, Big John and Sparky, and others. I used to dream that the tuning display would magically change and began to show TV...

    I believe it is from 1968. Unbelievable as it seems like only yesterday!

    Mature Spiritual Christians No Longer Need the Written Word?

    Is that really what I have done? If so I sincerely apologize.

    Why didnt the Protestant Reformation unite.

    No, simply pointing out your typo... in this case an important difference. You can correct your original post. You are welcome!

    Mature Spiritual Christians No Longer Need the Written Word?

    Produce away if you will but it is you going off on a tangent from your own topic. When you concluded that I was doing that you refused to discuss it with me further. Now you've changed the rules?
