    Christian Superstition

    Give God the glory sister. I keep on striving and surrendering. Then sometimes He adds to me. Some believe that they really have it, when actually, as I see it, they really have not got a clue. I understand why some press so hard to fix it, although few, if any, of them listen to me. Also...

    Can a Christian be only partly saved?

    No, I was looking for truth and I thought the man had it. I was hurt but I was sincere in my search. He pulled a few other such things in the couple of years we were there. Still, I was always a slow burn. My wife on the other hand was a devil before she became an angel. Each prod had her...

    Can a Christian be only partly saved?

    Hmmm! That reminds me of an early experience [1976] of mine. My wife and I were attending our first oneness assembly as members. She had already received the baptism of the Holy Ghost. I was working on it. Our pastor stood at the pulpit at spoke directly to me but the church house was pretty...

    The Inquisitions

    It was perhaps an early example of a mother giving birth in a pool of water. In this case a priest could have been on hand to perform the necessaries.

    Who or what is a Christian ?

    And now in addition to those three and real Christians [followers of Christ] are there not also some who lie in between? In the end that will not be, but in the interim...

    Are the 144,000 literally "virgins?"

    "And he sent, and beheaded John in the prison. And his head was brought in a charger, and given to the damsel: and she brought it to her mother." Matt 14:10-11 But if our head is replaced by Jesus, it is not a bad thing, is it?

    Who or what is a Christian ?

    And what is an infidel, a pagan or an atheist... so that we better understand from where the Christians are coming? In other words what were they and what are they now?

    Who or what is a Christian ?

    Christian Superstition

    Perhaps he has considered the danger of following men: "Let them alone: they be blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch." Matt 15:14

    Christian Superstition

    When I was a catholic, only the priests drank wine. I understand that now others are allowed to partake as well. That is not a change?

    Christian Superstition

    Attacking @pia who shows here nothing but the love of God is something you should never do. She said nothing to cause you to attack no matter what you believe. "But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his...

    Thoughts on Church Unity

    And so unto this day our friend, bbyrd009 remains "cryptic". This may be equal to the way Jesus was when he spoke to people in parables. Without eyes to see and ears to hear, who could know?

    Apologies

    @pia You're one of the better ones here. You are missed when you're not here.

    Grab you dance partner

    Yes, he wrote new words to a very old song replacing the original words written by W.W. Fosdick called "Aura Lee". It was US Civil War favorite under the name of "Aura Lee". Shortly thereafter with another set of words in 1865 it became a West Point class song under the title of "Army Blues"...

    Aspen and Tigger 2 discuss 'who is God?'

    I would say yes that I worship Him. I do believe that He is God. The only thing I know about the Hari Krisna's is that they used to hang out at the San Francisco Airport when I was limousine driver there many years ago. I know nothing about their beliefs with which to make a comparison...

    Aspen and Tigger 2 discuss 'who is God?'

    Well when I came to God or came back to Him in 1976, it was through a family that believed in one God and no trinity. To that time I have only met one Trinitarian in the flesh who served God like they did. I wanted what they had and that is the Way God led me. Was it weird? No but it was...

    satan a creature or man without God

    Further on this although it may derail my own thread: Most of the great reformers [Protestant] started with a right idea to bring things closer to something God would approve. The trouble is when you get beyond the original reformers, most everyone else on their bandwagon wanted to or did stop...

    Adam and Eve Never Rebounded

    Oh I do not really disagree. It was just an old thought that your post brought to mind. The thing that makes me wonder more than anything is whether God needed to or actually did kill animals to get them. That part does raise a question even though the way you presented it has always fit better...
