    Virgins

    Paul did say that it is good for virgins to remain celibate if GOD LEADS THEM. That is the key. A single person doesn't have to worry about other responsibilities like a married person. They can give their entire life completely to the work of God. That doesn't make them better than a...

    PLease someone answer my question

    Hey there and thanks for being honesst and asking! Not alot of people are willing to face it. Paul said that drunkards and riotous people will not inherit the kingdom of God.(Galatians 5). It certainly is not christlike to swear and to drink. Now, Jesus drank wine, yes, but I agree he didn't...

    Cafeteria Christians

    I think it could be judgemental but it is true of a lot of christians now a days. What can God give us? What can we get out of God, but don't even think about sacrificing or giving effort for God. Its a common trait lately. Bless me God, save me God, but yet, lets not take away from MY life...

    Prayer

    thats awesome!! Praise God! It may seem little to us, but its big to you! Isn't it amazing that the sovereign God of the universe is interested in every little part of our lives? I spend alot of time in prayer and it encourages me to pray for more things when I hear of stories like that! God...

    Christian rock

    I didn't say that rock was the problem, I just listed some problems with some of it. I used to be in the heavy metal scene before I got saved, and after I got saved I tried to write christian metal. I really didn't think it worked and I left it. Not to condemn anyone else, but I think its...

    If it's allright to put away your wife

    amen! What he said. I really am sick of debating things beside the threads topic. We know that it is a sin to remarry even if the divorce was totally right in God's eyes because it was due to fornication because Jesus said so first of all, and Paul also said it. That's all I came to say! lol...

    If it's allright to put away your wife

    so you guys are saying that the scripture is not the final word? Is it not God's inspired word? We don't live by the law, I agree, we are under grace and that makes us free from the law. But, walking in the spirit doesn't mean that we can do whatever we want. Jesus said that if someone...

    Christian rock

    thats a good way to put it. You can go into christian youth magazines and they have lists of if you like this secular band, then here is a christian band that sounds like it. Wait a second, avoid even the appearance of evil.(1 Thess. 5:22) Why see how close to the line we can get? Lets see...

    Rock concerts

    I believe it was Charles Spurgeon that said:"Some want to stay within earshot of the church bell, but I want to set up a rescue shop within a yard of Hell." Don't go in and mingle yourself with the wickedness that is going on inside, but a good idea would be to stand outside and as people are...

    Christian rock

    Its not so much the style of music but the spirit of the music and what the music glorifies. Is the music glorifying to God? Could you witness to someone while listening to that music? Theres alot of music that is 'harmless' but doesn't promote God, worship God, or encourage you to follow...

    Are tarot cards sinfull?

    I agree. God never told anyone in the new testament that they could worship in the temples of the caananites, or do their ceremonies as long as they were calling out to him. God wants us not only to follow Him, but also to follow His ways! Tarot cards are definitely not His ways and it would...

    If it's allright to put away your wife

    Yes, it is a sin to re-marry as long as the divorced spouse is alive. Jesus said so in the scripture! First of all, divorce should never be an option, and jesus said what God has put together, let no man break apart. You see, as long as that person is alive, they are still one with that...

    Bachelor Parties

    I had a friend that went backpacking with his 4 buddies for his bachelor party. Just camped out and hiked, obviously no alcohol. He said it was very cool, edifying, and fun! I'm getting married in a month and I've been kinda wondering what I was gonna do! lol

    Does Doctrine matter?

    Partially I agree, yet not really. Every conversion did include baptism so I agree that baptism is very very important but baptism doesn't wash away sins, and doesn't make the holy spirit come into our lives. For by grace ye are saved by faith; and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of...
