    Do you believe your religion is absolute truth?

    And just what is that [that you wanted]? And naturally you probably have no problem about how in biology evolution is taught as proven truth (which it is far from) and no other alternative interpretations of the evidence are discussed? How is that any different than parents teaching a single...

    Salvation is not earned!

    I'm sorry but I could not disagree more as it is not biblical. We are to be interested in our own salvation firstly and then the salvation of others. You will not be held accountable for what others do or believe, but you will be called to give an account for how you have lived your life and...

    Why did my mother die?

    Hey VinceBlaze, I can't tell you how much my heart goes out to you :hug: ... I couldn't image loosing my mother either. I'm sorry and hope that you will receive the strength and grace that you need to move on. As to your question of why your mother died, because of sin. Not because of her sin...

    What was Jesus afraid of ?

    Luke records that Jesus' sweat in Luke 22:44 was like drops of blood falling to the ground. I've heard that appearently this can happen when someone is under massive amounts of stress such that the sweat glands actually burst and bleed (or something like that). I'm not too sure about the...

    Biblical Literalism

    In this post, I will be using one main resource, a small booklet called How to Study the Bible by Mr Richard W. De Haan (who was the teacher of the Radio Bible Class, a worldwide ministry through radio, television, and literature). He describes what the literal interpretation is: The literal...

    Maybe the Salvation Army can help me with this SOS?

    One thing that you could do is try to get on a current affiars program and talk about the need and give your plight for help. I don't know much about American television, but here in Australia these programs report on the most stupidest things (e.g. neighbours fighting each other) such that...
