So let's pour ourselves a pint, watch some soccer — er, football — and show love to that wacky island nation who couldn't keep us rowdy Yanks under control. ;)

If you have prayed for healing, believing that it has been provided by Jesus's death and are now standing in faith awaiting complete physical manifestation do you think it is unbelief to go forward for prayer for healing at a service etc? (not responding to specific word of knowledge but the general altar type call for all who need healing)

I've researched it, and it appears to be a much debated verse. I'd like to hear what others think.

Matthew 27:46:

And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?

I don't understand this verse, for many reasons. 1, being that Jesus is supposed to not only be the son of God, but God himself. If he is God himself, why is he calling out to God? Isn't that an indication that the two are separate?

And secondly, Jesus coming to earth was to fulfill prophecy written in the OT. Jesus knew what his mission was on this earth, and the future events that would take place. Why did he feel that he was being forsaken by God?

That whole verse throws me off, or am I reading it completely out of context? ]]> Christian Scriptures jesuschristmysavior http://www.christianforums.com/t7419211/ http://www.christianforums.com/t7419209/ Fri, 20 Nov 2009 23:35:24 GMT Hi everyone

I have heard this saying many times and I was wondering if anyone can tell me if it is a Biblical saying or just a common saying:

'What God gives He gives for keeps.' Does anyone have the Bible reference for this?

I need either arms to hug me or arms to give me a shoulder to cry on. Seriously. I'm trying to not go and cry in the corner and plead mental insanity to go home.

I am so frustrated. I am basically doing so many jobs right now and I don't feel like I'm getting any support. And it seems like I can't do anything about it. There is nothing that protects me. All I can do is walk out and quit my job. My job isn't the problem. Doing my job and 2 other people's jobs is the problem. I'm so upset. ]]> Singles ~Beauty_from_Pain~ http://www.christianforums.com/t7419206/ http://www.christianforums.com/t7419205/ Fri, 20 Nov 2009 23:14:48 GMT Michael Horton says we need to once again let our lives and churches be driven by the gospel.

Daniil Sysoyev, a priest in the Russian Orthodox Church who was known for promoting missionary work among Muslims, was shot and killed in his parish church late Thursday night, the RIA Novosti news agency reported.
Father Sysoyev, 35, died at a Moscow hospital of gunshot wounds to the head and chest, RIA Novosti said. The Web site of the Moscow patriarchate confirmed his death. The parish’s choir director was wounded in the shootings at the Church of St. Thomas by the unidentified assailant.
A Moscow Patriarchate official called Father Sysoyev a “talented missionary” whose work among Muslims, including Tatars, might have been the motive for the shooting.
“I don’t exclude that the murder is connected to the fact that he preached among and baptized those who belong to Muslim culture,” the official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to talk with the news media, said in a telephone interview.
