I was saved in a small group meeting. Invited by the hosts. We met together for two more years before it was so big it had to divide. (it had been going on for at least a year when I was invited) I moved right after and so I didn't miss anything of the dividing. But, we met, we ate together...

As a military wife myself, a few things really bother me about your story. First, that he was going to abandon you pregnant. That one gets me. And, that his mother was listening to his whining and aiding him in any way. Is she a Christian? I am a Christian and I would never support my son...

Great story. I have had angels speak in my ear also. I have seen in the Spirit to know they are there. When life is good we walk on forgetting that. But, in times of trials they are right there for us. I have said before, my Mighty guardian angel is so big that my car leans to one side every...

Befriend someone else in the church. Find another someone your age to talk to after services while he chats with them. I would not sit in the car or avoid them. Stand with him, ask him to be open to seeing how they treat you. Has something happened to cause this? Maybe they think you are not...

I still say, if you know the word, then teach the word. It's really a simple principle. Jesus taught. The disciples taught. We should teach. Do a search, see how many times we are admonished to "teach" in the word of God.

Yep.

I find the whole thing sad. Including the things said in this thread. I don't believe that most Christians are homophobe. I think they are mostly trying to make a stand and find a way to tell the truth about the sin of homosexuality. But, usually... if they even try they are labeled as...

You must pray for the grace to continue to submit to your parents until the time you are old enough to leave home responsibly and respectfully. She is not trying to harm you, she is trying to protect you. What happens in our live today that we do not understand, God reveals to us later. He will...

That's good preachin. :amen:

No he did not. Actually, They were united against him. Who do you think sent him to the cross? But, we are admonished in the teachings to the church to not allow discord to creep up amoung us or allow someone to come in and cause it. When backbiting and gossip come in, dicord is their friend...

The arrogance of the Catholic church and even the faithful Catholics is really confusing. Do they not read the Word of God? And I have found that they think if they believe it, then they have a right to press it on others. My sil gave my husband a "Saint Medal" for his Navy Retirement. He has...

No need for a Catechism. We don't really need a book to tell us how to read the book we already have. Which is the Bible. The Catechism is strictly to tell you how to be a Catholic, not a Christian.

I'm sorry, but this thread only served to cause discord amoung believers. I believe there is an admonishment about this sort of thing in the Word of God. Like, be alert, don't allow it. Don't give in to it. Peace.

Notice it says the "overemphasis" of, not the total denying of. They don't preach ONLY that as a few religions do. But, they to believe it and lay hands on and pray for those to receive. But, many churches got to where that was their sole focus, rather than teaching, admonishing, calling to...

Love this. Sound doctrine indeed.

"There are hypocrites in the church"... Well, come on over, there is always room for one more! I'm glad you said only 65% of the body was askew. Whew! I thought for a minute there you were sinking us all. Yep... it's that whole "Boulder vs Speck" thing.

That's funny. LOL. I don't really care what they think of me. I am not ashamed of the gospel or his name. I think they are in error in most of the interpretations of the Bible. But, that is because I have been studying it on the College level for many years. So, they don't get me. I get...

I don't know what you mean, I was attending an AG church for years and years and they sure did lay hands on to impart the gifts, indeed. I received my gifts there. I have yet to attend an AG church that does not believe in the laying on of hands for the imparting of gifts. You get the Holy...

The Rapture is not the end of the world. Not even close. It is the moment when Christ will call all of His children up to Heaven to be with Him forever. It will take a nano second, (Twinkling of an eye). I am a Pre-Trib believer. I've studied Daniel and Revelations for a long time in...

That's "right"! :amen:
