    The Nicene Creed is not Christian

    It's interesting how so many people think that everything in the Bible is a rule... But the fact is, some scripture is instructive, some is historical narrative, and some is prophetic. Solid hermeneutics is essential to sanctification. All scripture is true. But keeping it in context allows...

    The Nicene Creed is not Christian

    You're right... God the FATHER called David a man after His own heart... 1 Samuel 13:14 Yes, Yahweh Himself... And Jesus' "standards" are identical to the Father's... David was a murderous lying adulterer. Peter was a hot-tempered liar. Saul of Tarsus was a mass murderer. Jacob was a...

    The Nicene Creed is not Christian

    You can't make declarations like "God is truth" without some reasoning process going on in your brain. The Bible does not teach "blind faith"... obedience without thinking... He did not give us a reasoning brain by mistake. Faith relies on evidence, knowledge, and reasoning - we cannot please...

    The Nicene Creed is not Christian

    Many of these discussions go in circles... I was agreeing with most of what you said... was that a mistake?

    Commentary on Abortion Procedures: A New Dark Age?

    So, if abortion were outlawed, what would you say then to those people who were hoping a murdered baby's body parts would save their child's life? I say again, these treatments should have never existed in the first place. People are benefitting and profiting from murdered babies... That's...

    The Nicene Creed is not Christian

    Well put! Thank you... As the book of John points out, sheep recognize the voice of their shepherd... We need to listen to teachers, but we should be so devoted to knowing Jesus' voice that we recognize a false teacher when we hear one.

    The Nicene Creed is not Christian

    Indeed! This is also a clear test whether a person is involved in a cult... A cult's leader will put himself above the teachings of Christ, and insist that his interpretation of scripture is the right one. I witness to people in cults that are based on Christianity, and this is the prime...

    The Nicene Creed is not Christian

    Exactly... That's why it is so important that we read scripture in context. "There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called to one hope when you were called; one Lord, one faith, one baptism; one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all..." Ephesians 4:4-6...

    It was never an issue... these medicines should have never existed in the first place...

    Commentary on Abortion Procedures: A New Dark Age?

    1) Yes, I am quite excited about umbilical cord and placenta harvesting... I know several people who have banks for their children. Their own body parts may some day save their lives... and someone was born vs being murdered to do it. 2) The "competent person" for a child is his/her parent...

    Pray for me

    Father in Heaven, I lift up Josho to you and ask that you fill him with the joy of life as Your child. Please bring the warmth and richness of godly friendships to his life. Continue to give him the hope he needs to sustain him through the lonely hours. I ask for Your Holy Spirit to give him...

    Commentary on Abortion Procedures: A New Dark Age?

    I do not believe that the ACLU is going to come after a parent who decides to turn down drugs derived from aborted fetuses. If you know of any such cases, I would love to see them. The law says all competent people have the right to refuse ANY life-saving treatment. I take issue with your...

    The Nicene Creed is not Christian

    And technically speaking, there are myriads of "Lords" ... The NT word means "one who completely owns and controls another" [Kurios: http://biblehub.com/greek/2962.htm]... So anything or anyone can be a person's "lord" ... Some people have alcohol or sex as their lord. Some have a spouse or...

    Commentary on Abortion Procedures: A New Dark Age?

    Perhaps you assume I have not had to make such decisions for my own child... perhaps you assume that I do not minister to women who face such decisions... perhaps you assume my opinion is not founded in personal experience. Expressing my opinion is not passing judgment on anyone... but I know...

    Commentary on Abortion Procedures: A New Dark Age?

    Actually, two of those things is true. Our nation was indeed founded on Christian principles. One of those principles was to never allow gov't to persecute someone for their religious beliefs. "It cannot be emphasized too strongly or too often that this great nation was founded not by...

    Commentary on Abortion Procedures: A New Dark Age?

    The DogLady says... I'm not a doctor. I'm an informed person who does not exploit victims of violence... I would NOT use the parts of a murdered baby to save my own child's life... and yes, I ask before accepting any medicine... And I won't feel guilty now or 20 years from now for my decision.

    Commentary on Abortion Procedures: A New Dark Age?

    Good post, but with one clarification. The US has never been "majority rules"... that is a straight democracy... We are a republic which means it has always been the "majority of lawmakers rule" and lawmakers are chosen from the citizenry itself... the citizenry, by majority vote, elects...

    Is America Becoming A Force For Evil In The World?

    In Romans 14, it is clear that all things we ingest are good, except to those who think it evil. If drinking or doing a drug causes you to revert back to days when you conjured spirits with sorcerers, then it would be a sin for you to do them. It would also be a sin for me to do those things...
