    Angels and eating...

    Sounds like a safe assumption to me. I recall some of the NT scriptures of after Jesus had risen when He was eating, and it intrigues me because of the fact that He still had his wounds and was obviously raised with the same body (with the Spirit Power), I guess that's the right way to say it...

    How do u know ur breakthru is coming?

    Hey, I'm still waiting too, but a dear friend reminded me this morning that the people of old who were given promises had to wait what, 40 years! WELL, I imagine I'd be given up L O N G before the 40 years was up, but what keeps me holding on is this, the ONE WHO MADE THE PROMISE is Faithfull...

    Do you fear death?

    You have nothing to FEAR.....death is inevitable, we all die...no one can really know what awaits us on the other side, but if you have hope that God is Good as He says, then you can rest on that, just Trust Him and know He will guide you when you cross over, as HE cares for us in this life...

    There HAS To Be A Balance - Molestation

    Hi. I am not exactly sure what you are asking. I think that it is healthy to physically hug and touch our family members, ofcourse, that is assuming the adults know and respect all boundaries of the children. As a child I was physical, I would hug anyone that would hug me. The sad part was...

    Why Some Do Not Get Healed

    Dear NewSong. I can hear your heart in this message, and as for the arguements for/or against faith healing I do not have enough knowledge to say either way. I believe God is capeable of doing ANY thing He chooses, I also know He chooses not to answer every prayer requesting healing with the...

    God - teacher or commander

    I see God as my Father, and He is a great one I might add. He does not provoke me to wrath and He is extrememly patient as I learn. He is, imo, interested in teaching so we can learn and grow. I use to see God as a tyrant, sitting on some kind of throne in Heaven, way, way, way above my head...

    update..nothing is forever

    BBA, yes, definately something is off, maybe chemically, (i am no Dr.) but I want you to consider something, since I have loads of experience I can say this, just because you have 'memory loss' due to lots of weed smoking does not mean you don't have a resentment, it could be masking 'itself' in...

    Homosexuality: A Lifestyle Choice?

    Thanks beechy, sometimes all I need is an insider's perspective and I can see it in a totally different way. I must admit, fear is the driving force behind the belief that homosexuality is wrong, for me, it always has been. I was taught that and because in my home growing up, the Bible was the...

    Explain the Moral Difference here...

    Well, certainly this is logical reasoning, since our conception of any kind of worthy God would be that He would automatically and immediately not allow, or at very least answer if we ask for such things. To that, what should one say, oh sure, it's easy to sit here on this side of the issue and...

    Homosexuality: A Lifestyle Choice?

    What exactly do you mean, not to get all technical with words, but I am not understanding. Let me see if this is it, are you saying that basically you believe homosexuality to be something someone chooses in life as a way to live therefore we can not attribute it to genetics or any behavior...

    Explain the Moral Difference here...

    No. I think I foolishly answered before I snipped, not having been in the position it's nearly impossible for me to even speculate, my goodness, my child is the most important person to me in this world, and I'd do anything in order to help him. I am sorry that there are even issues like...

    Explain the Moral Difference here...

    edit* okay, OP, in short, yes to me, the two issues are morally different. I snipped everything I had written because it was irrelevant to your op. B~

    If you saw a starving child...

    Hey John812! I'd say there isn't much difference in one starving child to the next. I am skeptical of giving my money to charities and such, since I don't know exactly how they would handle my donation, and I prefer to donate to someone I can actually see benefit from it. I do this too. I...

    If you saw a starving child...

    I am not trying to be sarcastic but how many starving children do you actually pass on the street? I don't ever see a starving child on the street, I'd call the HRS if I did. I understand you are trying to encourage us to do all we can, so let's start with our own children then, are they...

    A question of/on vocabulary

    Hey gwenmead, I also enjoy understanding stuff and I've struggled with the same thing, just different words! It helps a great deal to know if someone is using different words to refer to the same thing, since apparently we do interchange words here frequently, or atleast I seem too. If you...

    im no longer a christian... anyone understand?

    Hey Endure2! I've just gotten back from a couple of months away, and I am so sorry to hear you are suffering, your posts always made me feel encouraged. I can understand how you feel and I've wondered about this too. The whole experience is too complicated to explain, but once when I was...

    Hypocritical Christians

    My only suggestion would be not to worry so much about others, but if it bothers you so much just work really hard not to be guilty of doing it yourself, and try to forgive others when they offer unsolicited advice, usually we 'project' ourselves onto others, so it's probbly issues they have...
