Just some thoughts Brothers and Sisters. The institution of a Sabbath rest for Adam, Eve, and their descendants, was instituded within the context of a perfect, unveiled relationship between God and humanity. Adam and Eve had not sinned nor had death entered the world. There was definately...

Rstrats, re: "What is the difference between a Jewish calendar week and a Gregorian calendar week? They both consist of seven days." Both have seven days, but the beginning of each day's 24 hours is different. A day on the Gregorian calendar begins at midnight, where a day on the Jewish...

I see. Thanks.

Wormwood, I don't want to speak for Aspen. I may have missunderstood him myself. I thought he was referring to the way we as Christians can come across as self-rightous when we see the sin in another person's life and try to tell them what they need to do to fix themselves, as if we have it...

I wonder how much of a person’s memory is involved in these NDEs? I mean even most atheists know quite a bit about Christianity. I know a lot of people who talk about hearing about something in the morning and then dream about it the same night; I have had those kind of experiences my self. If a...

Geshem, I personally know four couples who fit two of the scenarios you mentioned. All of the couples were made up of people who said they were Christians before they were married; all ended in divorce. The thing that was consistent in all of those relationships was that none of them really...

How does the chat work? I have seen some members say that they only had to make 10 posts and they could access the chat. I've made more than ten posts, but everytime I go to the chat no other names show up. Is there a specific time the chat is available? I've checked every day, at different...

For the last 10 years of my life, I have been purposful in looking for the good that God is doing in someone's life, and to affirm it. I think our auto pilot setting, as humans, is criticism and skepticism. One version of 1 Corinthians 13 says, "love hopes all things". If we've been filled with...

LightTheWay, I learned to read from a KJV Bible, when I was 4 and 5 years old. By the time I was 15 I had at least 8 different versions of the Bible, including two in Spanish. Just like those who argue about whether or not the KJV Bible is the only inspired English version or not, so too do...

When we consider God's responce to His unfaithful bride, even if we have a legitimate reason for divorce, should we get one? I mean the Israelites pretty much slept with their lover in front of the groom, on the wedding day, and throughout history, God's people, both Israelites and Gentiles have...

Sojourner4Christ, Please forgive my misunderstanding about your specific calling. Still, even a prophetic calling works in the context of the Body. I believe that the words "recreation" and "play" are synonyms, "passtime", "repose", "relaxation", and "refreshment" are others I could have...

sojourner4Christ, No stroking or patronizing intended here. Zechariah 8:1-15 In this passage two of the blessings God intends for His people are: 1. Children recreating 2. The elderly recreating The word for "play" in verse 5, has many negitive definitions, but it also has many positive...

Enquirer, It took less than a year for the people of Israel to fall into apostasy. Even after seeing the plagues, the cloud by day, the fire by night, the mountain on fire, the sound of the trumpet, the quail, the manna, the water from the rock (twice), they still worshiped idols and turned...

It's green and sits right over my friends list, It started out with the number zero. Yesterday it had the number one, and today it has a two by it.

Sojourner4Christ, I appreciate everything you had to say. I love you brother. I don't see everything the way you do, and I can tell you took the time to think about what you said. It is clear to me that you want to live for the Lord and honor Him in everything you do. I too want to do the...

Hi Trekson, Thanks for pointing me to the OP. I dind't remember that you were the OP. One of the dificulties of these forums is remembering who said what, when and where they said it. I am not a seventh day adventist or a Messianic Jew. I keep the Sabbath (for me that means that I do not work...

Hi rstrats, I am not sure what you mean when you say, "...you probably won't know of any writings", can you clarify? About John 20: I think it's important to concider the surrounding context. Chapter 19 ends with Jesus being laid in the tomb, and Chapter 20 ends with it being eight days...

FHII, A few of my uncles and couins used to have Madden tournaments, we even had this footbal trophy for the winner. I liked playing, but I never won the tournament. Did you ever play Blitz? We would have tournaments with that game too. I liked your post, it brought back fun memories.

What is the "neutral" tab, in the profile section for?
