    My experience with hemorrhoids

    I had suffered with internal hemorrhoids for years. You know you have these when it feels like there is a small balloon/s up inside your rectum. They can itch and make one use a lot more toilet paper to get cleaned up than one normally would use after a bowel movement. Hemorrhoid creams help a...

    Born Again question.

    I think we do not go far enough when we discuss the 'born again' experience that Jesus talked to Nicodemus about (Jn.3:1-8), and what the Apostle Paul discussed in his letters (Col.2:11). Is this a natural experience (due to religious observance) or is it a supernatural experience resulting...

    One-minute video says it all!

    The crowd was so loud, even before the game, that the players could hear it and feel the vibration down in the tunnel where they where gathering. During the 4th quarter, the 3in. glass up in the press box was rattling. I do not know of that occurring before. For college footbal, there really...

    The 'Jonah Syndrome'

    This is when a Christian is bent on going about their life, his/her way, when God has a specific plan for you. How does one know that this is what is occurring to them and not just God chastising them? I think the only way one can know the answer is through experience. One need not have...

    Does GOD create gays???

    This is an excellent starting point! We have been taught that if people are born gay, then it would be as a result of their genetic makeup, which would be in direct contradiction to what we have been taught about what the Bible says concerning this subject. So, which is right? What we have...

    Does GOD create gays???

    Then there are situations in which males are born with a female part/s and females born with a male part/s. Therefore, since these physical characteristics exist in some people, it follows that psychological and emotional components found in the opposite sex, can exist in some people since...

    Does GOD create gays???

    Does GOD create gays??? Yes, God created Gays, Heterosexuals, Bi-Sexuals, Lesbians, Transgendered, and Hermaphradites. He created them: 25Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men. 26For ye see your calling, brethren, how...

    Morals shouldn't be opinionated.

    Morals shouldn't be opinionated. Are these just 'opinions' ? 10 Commandments Exodus 20:2-17 1. Ye shall have no other gods before me 2. Ye shall make no graven images (idols to worship) 3. Ye shall not use the name of the Lord in vain 4. Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it...

    The Christian: one nature or two?

    People that become true believers have had God's light shined in their conscience. Satan had previously had the person's entire conscience to himself and had it entirely darkened so that the person could not see that he/she was not alone in their daily decision making. After the person's...

    Dump for not being Christian

    I do not think 'converting' to her religion at this point would be productive in the long run. Those problems you quoted as having with the Christian religion take lots-n-lots of study and lots-n-lots of time to digest. Then you said that you have a problem with declaring that extremely...

    Are you sure?

    Are you sure? I do not think any religion is 100% correct. If a religion rates an 8 on a scale of 1-10 that is pretty certain. There has to be room for doubt, which leaves room for faith. So I rate my religion, the Christian faith, an 8. The diety of my religion also an 8.

    Is the Bible faultless?

    The advantage that New Testament translators have today is that the Koine Greek language is a dead language and they can trace each word back to it's original meaning. There is an exception though. That being where the Apostle Paul created his own word or he used a Hebrew-Greek word...

    There's something wrong in America when...

    I think it is rare to see any Christian getting personally involved in any non-Christian's life. Be him/her a young person or not. It may even be rare to see it occur in any congregation when it involves 2 Christians. Maybe it is because we Christians have been lulled to sleep with subtle...

    I am not sure of what religion to believe in.

    My religion still revolves around Jesus (Jehovah) in the Old Testament. Logic keeps me tied to Him. I think everyone knows deep down that there is a terrible, terrible, problem with the human condition. Not even the most intelligent animals do the kinds of things to each other that we...

    What is the trinity?

    Though the Torah does not mention Elohim as being 'Gods' it was of course known by those ancient Israelites as being the pantheon of their Godhead. More on this name: Elohim - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    Angels

    Whether the concept of immortal messengers from heaven was incorporated into the Old Testament, I do not know. They are mentioned a number of times in the New Testament as well. Throughout the entire Bible they appear in either in spirit form or fleshly form. Even we mortal beings are to be...

    Help me.

    The ancient Jews wrote in their Babylonian Talmud, that Yeshua practiced sorcery and led much of Israel astray. (b. Sanhedrin 43a;) There is much more that these ancient Jews wrote concerning Jesus(Yeshua) that the general public should know about. One can see in these writings, that they...

    Help me.

    Back in that time, people were dominated by what we would call today, superstition. One's everyday life consisted in what the gods/goddesses had in store for them. If something tragic occurred or something wonderful, it was because the deities wanted such. Everyone believed in a deity or...
