    Parents can be jailed if they interfere with their kids desire to transgender, as in the clothes they wear in Scotland if bill passes into law

    Hello BlessedPeace. An example of what I'm meaning as lawlessness are Pro-Palestine Anti-Israel protests. Groups of angry people, often Muslim men shouting Anti-Semitic slogans, calling for violence against Israel, defacing war memorials and Jewish and Christian symbols, with the police often...

    Parents can be jailed if they interfere with their kids desire to transgender, as in the clothes they wear in Scotland if bill passes into law

    Scotland here. Thanks for your prayers for the country. Some things that are happening here and in England are extremely concerning. Law abiding souls are falling foul of the law over nonsense like this story while actual crime is being ignored by the police. Lawless times of the last days...

    Why do some people not like the idea of OSAS?

    Hello Reggie. I agree with you. As the old hymn says 'I have decided to follow Jesus, no turning back!' and as the bible says: 2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has gone, the new has come. The challenge in our day when the modern church faces...

    If you think that Noah's flood was global, then bet on it

    Hello Marks, interesting biblical points! Thanks for sharing. In addition to what the bible says there is plain logic. If the flood was local then why did Noah spend 120 years building a giant boat for a flood he could have walked away from in a few days? God Bless You :)

    Genesis as allegory? - History versus allegory

    Literal. For example the Seven Days of Creation is the origin of our seven day week: Exodus 20:11 For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, but he rested on the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy. Every...

    Why do some people not like the idea of OSAS?

    Galatians 1: 8 But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you, let them be under God’s curse! God Bless You :)

    Why do some people not like the idea of OSAS?

    Hello! Good to meet you. Uk (Scotland) here too. Maybe this verse is relevant: Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you (Ephesians 4:32). I once heard a speaker talk about having an attitude of gratitude. Because God has forgiven us...

    This community is proof that one can believe in Christ AND be a jerk.

    Hello there! UK here too, good to meet you. With our words and actions we can build people up or tear them down, be a good witness for the Lord or even bring reproach to his cause. But we also must forgive as God forgave us because we do hurt one another. I pray that I will be a blessing to...

    Losing loved ones

    Sorry to hear of your losses dev. I miss my Grandmother and my Uncle Harry. But at least as believers we have hope, we'll see them again soon: 1 Thessalonians 4:13 Brothers and sisters, we do not want you to be uninformed about those who sleep in death, so that you do not grieve like the rest...

    People claiming to have seen Heaven

    Hello St Joseph. In 1 Corinthians 12 it talks of someone taken up to the third heaven and seeing and hearing things than cannot be repeated. Conversely today many people do repeat these experiences, which is a huge difference and the huge number and variety of these experiences sometimes gives...

    Unbelievers in Church

    Hello St. Joseph. At least coming to church they would hear the gospel and hopefully be saved. It's possible for a pastor to share teaching for the mature believer but bring it home clearly to the gospel for the new person, the two can co-exist. If they accept the invitation to come it's a...

    Do you think the USA and Europe should protect Taiwan in a war with China?

    Don't forget about Australia and New Zealand, they're a lot nearer to the flash point than Europe is. God Bless :)

    Immigration is a good thing-----

    Hello! The UK has a challenge at the moment with people crossing the channel in small boats. I think that legal immigrants are good, they can assimilate, their identity is known, their numbers be controlled and adequate preparations made to receive them etc. Like the refugees from Hong Kong or...
