    Why is my life like this?

    I don't understand. I try to be an honest person, and do what's right. My life feels like a merry-go-ground going so fast I'm getting sick but I can't get off of. The one man I'm interested in I want to connect with it doesn't look like it is going to happen. My boss lies, and manipulates...

    Pretty picture, causing a brother to stumble?

    Hi All, Thanks for your responses. Seems like about everybody is on the same page about it. @DiscipleHeLovesToo: just a gentle reminder that all fear is not bad. The Bible says the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. God bless. ________ Acts 22:16 - "And now what are you waiting...

    What do I say to a suicidal friend about god ?

    Joel Osteen Your Best Life Now CD Book. I don't agree with everything he has to say, but those CDs were largely responsible for my 180 turn from suicidal depression. I listened to them driving to work on my lunch break and on my way home. I have broken strongholds like intense verbal / mental...

    Pretty picture, causing a brother to stumble?

    Hi, I have a question. I recently took a photo of myself and updated my Facebook. The picture is very modest, but I look pretty in it. I wanted to make sure that I didn't look seductive or anything so I asked a sister in Christ her opinion. She said I looked natural, not seductive...

    I have mild autism and I have a problem

    Hi, I wouldn't suppress them. I see God as my real Father. I did not grow up with my Dad in my life. But for that I make it up with addressing God directly as my Dad. I know it's more formal and stuff to be like "You, O' Lord are wonderful" I just exclaim excitedly in my prayers "Lord, I...

    Question about vows

    The only one out of my immediate family is my Mom; but she is disabled and poor and I actually help her out. I asked my Dad for money at one point, but said he is in a tough financial situation and cannot give anything. I just am going to have to wait until I am in a stable financial situation...

    Being born again - baptism and doubts!!!

    Hi, I will just mainly share verses from the Bible (in addition to the water and Spirit verse you mentioned), that I think are clear on this matter: Acts 2:38 - "And Peter said to them, “Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins...

    Christian - Argument with Neighbors?

    Hi, To her defense, she said to me "how do you know I haven't taken him to the vet and it's arthritis?" However when you look at his leg though it clearly looks like it has been injured, it doesn't look like arthritis, but then again I'm not a vet. How should I get on good standing with the...

    Christian - Argument with Neighbors?

    Hi, I need some advice. The lady next door to me has a cat that in my yard a lot. The cat is limping and looks like his leg is injured and he is possibly hurting. I have been here for months and the issue still persists. I have thought about approaching her to let her know there is a...

    Do you think it is sinful or immodest to wear shoes with heels?

    Hi, Do you think it is sinful or immodest for women to wear heels? Heels alter the appearance of a woman making her appear taller than she is. They also can attract attention which is not very modest. I do not have the intention to appear taller than I am (I actually like my height), but...

    Unforgivable sin *sensitive content

    Hi, This post is for those who believe they have truly blasphemed the Holy Spirit. The other morning I was reading Luke 12 and the following verses stuck out to me: Luke 12:8-10 "And I tell you, everyone who acknowledges me before men, the Son of Man also will acknowledge before the...

    Baptism

    Hi, I just want to direct your attention to what the Bible says about baptism. I know there are a lot of religious teachings out there within Christianity, but if the baptism is going to be valid it is going to need to be for the reasons God's word says it is for. I will let the Bible speak...

    New and need help

    Hi, I don't know that I have the answers. However, I will say what you describe sounds almost exactly what I go through. Sometimes knowing someone else struggles with the same thing helps you know you are not the only one dealing with these symptoms. I would suggest professional treatment...
