    Unsure what to do next?

    Hi Skendit, You will find that there are aome topics that Christians can argue over for hours on end. Baptism is one of those topics. The bible only says that we should be baptised, it does not say what form the baptism must take (immersion in water or pouring of water). Personally I do...

    What does Mt 7:6 mean?

    Agreed. We as humans tend to think we "good people" based on our perception of what it means to be good. We first need to realise that according to God's standard we do not even come close to being good.

    What does Mt 7:6 mean?

    You must read this in context. Jesus is busy teaching His disciples and revealing important things to them. This divine revelations is the pearls He is talking about. As you walk with God, He will reveal things of Himself to you. If you try and share these things with non believers, they...

    The purpose of church

    The purpose of the church is for Christians to get together so they can build up each other by sharing what God is doing in their lives. It is also a place where they can support and encourage each other as we all go through troubles in life. It is not a place of stiff ceremonies and long...

    Laws to Follow

    You can never build a lasting relationship with God if you base it in the laws you must follow. Following the laws of God is a result of a relationship with Him. You build a relationship on trust and intimate knowledge of the other party. If you love your earthly dad, what is that...

    Does God speak to you?

    Hearing the Voice of God is a very personal thing. The Bible says that He knows how many hairs you have on your head. That indicates a very personal interest in you as a person. If I speak to my kids I speak to them as individuals and I adjust my speech and what I say to them personally so...

    We send ourselves to hell?

    You are correct of course. Since the power of God is what holds Creation together He is everywhere. So Hell must have a greatly reduced measure of His presence. Thank you for pointing that out.

    We send ourselves to hell?

    I must admit that I have struggled with the concept of Hell a lot. No matter how I look at it, I cannot reconcile a loving God with a place of eternal pain and suffering where a person is “punished” for not choosing to follow God. Most people say God created hell as a place for...

    ? About Spiritual Gifts

    If I can throw in my two bits here (by the way Angryj, I love your first post. I think Christianity would be much better off if the Christians pulls the stick out of their butts and relax just a bit - no offense intended to anyone). As far as your question is concerned, it must be remembered...

    Possible just to "mess up" a prophecy?

    Hi Pink I am going to reply against my better judgement as I generally try and stay away from discussions regarding the prophetic. You will find that this forum is full of so called "experts" on the prophetic. You will find these people have long winded opinions about what the prophetic...

    Is it wrong to inquire of the Lord through a prohpet?

    A question for Arbiter and Michael Collum: It is obvious that both you guys know a lot about prophecy and prophets. Do you operate in the prophetic?

    What is the mysterious unpardonable sin?

    The Holy Spirit is the one who convicts us (John 16:8). The context in which Jesus was describing the unpardonable sin was when people accused Him of driving out demons by the power of Satan (Matt 12). When you claim the work of the Holy Spirit to be the work of Satan, you stand the danger...

    Public Apology

    Nothing gives me greater joy than to say that the apology is accepted and all is forgiven! As the Body of Christ, we must stand in unity and it will be my honour and privilege to stand next to CRIB and say "This is my brother through Jesus Christ our Lord!"
