    What's the difference?

    Some research here may help. The fact is, that most polls demonstrate that men and women are almost equally divided over the issue. The fact of the matter is, that slightly more women are against abortion then men. And in some polls slightly more men are in favor of abortion than women.

    Somebody Pray For Me

    Praise God, I live. This was a very, very risky surgery. The only reason the doctors performed the surgery was because of my youth. They felt that with my youth, I had a shot at making it through the surgery. I was not a candidate for a heart transplant, because both of my lungs would have to be...

    Don't know how many here have heard of him, but Dr Lee Roberson has passed into glory this weekend. Dr Lee Roberson was one of the great leaders of the Independent Baptist movement. He truly was one of the giants of Fundamental Baptists, and for that matter, all Baptists. He was an incredibly...

    Sinners in the hands of an Angry God

    Read the book of Psalms. God despises the wicked. He isn't angry at their actions, He's angry at them.

    moral dilemma (hypothetical)...

    Depends, am I his pastor/spiritual advisor, or just a brother in Christ? If I were his spiritual advisor or pastor, I would recommend quite a bit of pre-marital counseling. Some of it together, some of it separate.

    moral dilemma (hypothetical)...

    Actually, it is the business of those who are brothers and sisters in Christ. If somebody in my church were to start bringing his pregnant girlfriend to church, it is my responsibility as a fellow believer to lovingly confront him(Matt 18 and 1 Cor 5).

    moral dilemma (hypothetical)...

    Is it a sin to let people believe a lie if you don't at least offer the truth? Part of getting over a traumatic event is talking about it, not keeping it within. You can't have a good relationship when you're both covering up a lie, or trying to actively let people believe a lie. On the other...

    IronWill's Reformed Baptist Crew

    Indeed. I sometimes wonder how Amazing Grace would be worded if an Arminian who truly believed in his own theology wrote it. Perhaps it would be something like: "Amazing Choice, How sweet I made, That saved myself from hell, I once was kinda lost, But I figured it out on my own, Was blind, but I...

    Abortion, is it Political?

    Biologically speaking, the baby is already alive, that much is not an argument by anybody who knows anything about the issue.

    Abortion, is it Political?

    The fetus has the potential for life? How is it not alive already? I fail to see how Gen 2:7 supports this concept.
