"Resist not evil."

My grandmas wore babushkas.

I hope you are correct. But, polls are often inaccurate.

Have you not read about what it was like to live as a Jew amid Roman occupation? Many messiahs arose before and after Jesus, calling for revolution against the oppressive Roman authorities. Jesus was born into the midst of these calls to arms among His neighbors. If Jesus had wanted to wage war...

Reading these last few pages, I come away with the idea that some here believe that the tide is swinging toward conservativism. I perceive it to be just the opposite - the liberals have all the momentum. Their communist propaganda has been successful in changing the minds of many American...

Care about the things of this world versus care about the things of God - yes; this is an extremely important point. Concern about food, especially good tasting food, even the nutritional value of food is evidence that we care about this world. Thoughts about sex, beauty, physical...

No. Lucifer is doomed. Besides, who will God use to perfect our faith with temptations?

Not very traditional, I'll say that. They probably paid some modern artist big bucks to come up with it. It's strange; why are they blond haired? And, what's with the space helmet? Are they trying to tell us something?

Ultimately, I cannot sanctify myself. I cannot even walk on my own merits (God can strike me lame one second before I decide to walk). But, I do make intentions to walk & they have been very successful, historically. IMO, your first alternative is far more productive. The second alternative can...

IMO, sin remains important because we are, hopefully, seeking to live as Jesus lived and to follow His "way". I am saved by my faith - that is done and over. There is nothing more to put my mind to regarding faith in the death and resurrection of Jesus as a payment for my sins and reception of...

Please, remember, "not one iota shall pass from the law." We are no longer under the burden of the law, but we are to follow the spirit of the law. The spirit of the sabbath is manifold: separation from the world, the correct attitude toward our job and work in general, the Heavenly atmosphere...

It's not about working at our jobs or doing chores around our homes, it's about entering God's rest. First, we must understand the sabbath as "entering God's rest", which some take to mean, 'entering Heaven (which is one meaning of this verse). To practice the sabbath every day, every moment of...

No! Clearly, by Jesus' response, it is ordinary to claim to be a son of God. "Ye are all sons of God..."

Welcome to the forum, JenniferAutumn. I pray your experience here will bring blessing into your life and enhance your walk with God.

You are at leisure when distress befalls you. You sought refuge from the distress among God's people. You sought God's counsel and the answer was opened to you. There was beauty and peacefulness. Then, many minor distresses turned into one large distressing event. When you yelled, "He is...

Hi AprilRose! I'm not certain any of us could accurately explain what it means to be born again. It is certainly written that "Ye must be born again". But, have I really been born again? I do live a renewed life, a life that is different from people in the world. I do look for my happiness in...

My parents used to listen to Burl Ives, too. I loved some of his songs. "Tears of a clown", I think, was one of his.

1. Pray for strength to over come your attachment to porn. Pray every morning and every evening. You will have to do this for months and months. 2. Confess when you fall, preferably to a human (and also to God). 3. I would suggest that you make a list of ten reasons you hate being addicted to...

I claimed this verse once when I asked for a raise at the job I worked at. They gave me a small raise; I refused the raise, but I worked even harder at my job then before. Three months later they gave me the raise I had originally requested.

May Paula's lungs and brain be healed of all traces of cancer - in Jesus' name.
