John 14:6 I am the Way the Truth and the Life, no one comes to the Father but by Me.

Wow. Amazing. The first two verses of Isaiah 35 were read in church the other day and that is exactly how I saw it too, and expounded it to my daughter. Very good stuff wordsponge. Have you ever heard that song "Trading my sorrows"? I'm trading my sorrow I'm trading my shame I'm laying them...

Ah, I see what happened. You mixed up my post and copper25's. I never said anything about a church divided, that was copper25.So you are saying that the elect are just the super-important people in God's plan? Like Moses, the Apostles and now maybe people like Jimmy Swaggart and Joel Olsteen...

These are your words, and you are correct, it has led to my confusion. Just one, I guess. And I am failing to understand. I especially don't know how you would say there are two different types of believers but then say you didn't. Are there two or more people using your same account?? You...

Are you afraid to answer these questions? I don't think I believe that you don't understand them...

You asked for a bible verse and I gave it.Ephesians 2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: It says much more than "only" we are saved by grace. It says we are saved by grace through faith and that it is not of us but from GOD. That means...

Ephesians 2:8

I don't know if you are being purposely obtuse here or what. Who do you think is putting the mother in prison? Would you rather I said 'legal system' instead of government? If you read the article you posted the prosecuting attorney tells the jury to disregard parents rights in the case. I...

Yes good post. No matter how incredible it sounds I feel the same way as Swampfox when he says;

I think parents should properly take care of their children too, but I don't think anyone has the right to force how that is done. They are saying if you don't raise your children according to their guidelines they will take your children away and give them to someone who will follow their...

Do you have bible verses to support this? I haven't read that there are two different types of believers and I wonder why I missed it...

Only a doctor can medically murder someone. Refusing advice from your mother-in-law is not a capital offense last time I checked. Faith without works being murder makes no sense whatsoever but if you would like to expound I sure would like to understand.

I don't see that as an error. Mark is talking about the main guy. Matthew notes there were two of them. They are just two different ways to tell the same story. There were definitely 2 men because Matthew says there were two. Mark does not contradict Matthew by saying there was only one.

That's because you aren't separating your will from what you want your govt. to do. I don't think govt. should be in charge of parenting and you do.You don't think that I would also find it sickening that these parents didn't do something as simple as taking their child to a doctor to avoid her...

I don't understand what you are trying to say with this. I already know there is a such thing as doctors...??? Are you sure about that, or is that your opinion? Bible verse? Agreed. I'm not so sure about that. The parents didn't tie the kid down and kill her. You don't hear about parents...

What is medical negligence? So you are prescribing using the force of govt. to make parents take their children to the doctor? I would think medical negligence only applies to doctors. Nope. They are saying you must do what they say, or suffer the consequences. Sure it is. But only a doctor...

I think it is Narcotics Anonymous and Alcoholics Anonymous.

I don't think a crime was committed. The mother had faith that God would heal her child. Does the govt. own the child? They are saying they do. If you don't do what the govt. tells you to do with your child, you go to jail. This wasn't abuse. The only thing the lady did was not take the...

This is sad that it came to such a close vote in any church. It is an abomination. Maybe the definition of that word needs to be looked up by the ELCA. I didn't respond because I don't know too much about the ELCA and I figured most people here believe what the bible says about homosexuality...

Faith without works is dead.
