Is there a well-known preacher that isn't a millionaire?

Vice-President Vance just met with the Pope Easter morning. https://nypost.com/2025/04/21/world-news/pope-francis-first-pontiff-from-the-americas-dead-at-88-after-respiratory-crisis/

I can only surmise that we acquire a greater understanding and love and so maybe we're "in love" with everyone! For that matter, will the concept of "male" and "female" exist in Heaven? I presume that procreation doesn't exist and that it is replaced by something far greater. I guess I am unable...

When I was 12 my mother bought me a male swordtail similar to the fish in the picture below. I named him "James Bond". I had him for perhaps a year in my 20-gallon fish tank. I loved him. Is he in Heaven?

I believe it was said that anyone who practices sinning is a slave to sin. Is there anybody that doesn't "practice sin"? I'm of the thought that even the strictest and best-intentioned Christians on Earth can't help but sin (miss the mark) on a daily basis. Or are those who come up short but...

The Bible tells us that one can only believe in and follow Jesus IF they are blessed by God the Father to do so. Ephesians 2:8-9 8 For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, 9 not a result of works, so that no one may boast. Romans...

Only Earth? Doesn't it seem likely that God has created gazillions of worlds with uncountable numbers of people? Here's a thought. Maybe one day you too will help God to create a new world filled with sinful people and that YOU will go into the world to be the Christ for them. Wouldn't...

I saw this debate on another message board and I'm curious as to your thoughts. Thanks.

If not, who was the first Jew and how, please

Most people argue about where that darn comma in the verse is supposed to be! Let's forget about the comma. If it was Jesus's intention to communicate that the thief would be in his kingdom eventually in the future, he likely would have said "You will be with me in paradise", which of course...

Seems compelling.

Genesis 12:3 --- All peoples on earth will be blessed through Abraham. Genesis 22:18 --- All nations on earth will be blessed through Abraham’s offspring. Psalms 22:27 --- All the ends of the earth and all the families of the nations will acknowledge God. Psalms 65:2 --- All men will come to...

My previous marriage failed. Why? Because God wasn't our foundation. Friendships have withered. Why? Because God wasn't our foundation. My relationship with my adult son has suffered. Why? Because God wasn't our foundation. I'm thick in the skull but I'm nevertheless slowly realizing God's...

Matthew 18:4 Whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.

Should there be a follow-up question to ask those who reply "Christian" if they are born again? I've been assured that people who declare that "Jesus is Lord" and who strive to follow his commandments cannot accurately be described as "Christian" unless they have been "born again". Maybe...

This is a mystery to me that will likely remain so until it happens. What do you think it means? 1 Corinthians 15:28 English Standard Version 28 When all things are subjected to him, then the Son himself will also be subjected to him who put all things in subjection under him, that God may be...

For me, there is NOTHING more beautiful than a VERY Christian woman! Thanks in advance for your insightful feedback!

Thanks in advance.

That happened with me after my mother passed away at 92 this past September. Mom was always very humble, down-to-Earth, generous, and thoughtful of others and she did not want anybody making a fuss over her death by buying flowers, making donations, etc. Her only request was that they think...

Please share your thoughts on that statement made by Jesus. Thank you.
