    How Should Christians Respond to Halloween?

    I've heard many conflicting views about this holiday. Some say that the holiday has pagan roots and is fully evil. Many say that if you're not celebrating evil then you're okay. Others say that Halloween is not evil because of all hallows eve. After searching through the Bible, I found a verse...

    Hope in a pre-trib rapture.

    Personally, I do believe in the pre tribulation rapture, however, my focus is on Jesus and Jesus alone. If the rapture turns out to be after the tribulation, then it won't bother my because I know that God is with me and loves me. Even in the face of death or persecution, I would not fear...

    Fear controlling faith

    I went through the same exact thing last year and God helped me and calmed my fears. There is hope for you! What I can tell you is that fear is not from God, 2 Timothy 1:7. The devil uses fear to keep us in condemnation, but the bible says that there is no condemnation for those in Christ Jesus...

    I love the example that you used! I agree with what you posted, it sounds salvation can be lost because of our free will, but it also sounds like "real" christians would probably never even consider to leave the faith.

    Is Once Saved Always Saved Biblical?

    I have heard both sides of this discussion and would like to hear others opinions on this subject. I agree with both sides of the argument but I kind of lean towards the side that's says that you can lose salvation. Here's why: Hebrews 6:4-6 and Hebrews 10:26. However, I feel like these verses...

    What does it mean to deny God?

    I was reading through the bible the other day and stumbled upon Matthew 10:32-33. Verse 33 states that if one denies God in front of men, Jesus will deny him infront of his father. I guess what my question is, what is the difference between Peter's denial of Jesus and the denial of God in this...

    Bad Dream/OCD Thoughts

    Thank you for your response! I will definitely look into the book the you requested. I'm not sure if I actually have religious ocd but I decided to put the topic in the ocd section because I do struggle with intrusive thoughts.

    Bad Dream/OCD Thoughts

    I have dealed with intrusive thoughts for a while now and I know that God forgives me, but for some reason I had a bad dream about accepting the mark of the beast last night.
