From its first words, the bible lays down the battle lines...
Gen 1v1: In the beginning, God created the heavens & the Earth...."
Pick a side - Creation or evolution.
But not all Christians either (a) take it seriously or (b) dont 100% believe what it says on the page
Try this, Ken Ham, one...
've been notoriously bad about recording my journal is any way shape or form. Seems ironic consider how much need I have to track my steps AND how many tools are available these days.
That said, lets start here
Been trying to wake up early to seek the Lord before the rest of my world gets up...
Hard questions for Pastors about their church
Q1. Are there any doctrines in the bible that should not be taught, any that are too tough?A. No all the counsel of God should be should be taught. If something IS tough, then it should be explained, and prayed through, but the only way to get a...
How many times I have tried to pray and just felt like there was a brass ceiling above me. Well its not meant to be like that. Jesus said a parable of the widow and the judge because "that men always ought to pray and not lose heart".

You know, now I almost hint people to ask that of me. The "Why does God let bad things happen to good people???"
Now I know where they are going with this one, but the question itself is flawed, but it is only the true Christian that can get their head through it.
The trouble is that it...
Something just floated into this thick head of mine.. better get it down (& quick, Im at work).
Just think about what it really means to call God `Father`.... we seem to take it so glibly, but the gravity of it just hit me.
We are sinful - OK got that, but wait a minute. Our righteousness is...
