Thank you to everyone who responded above. I don't log in often enough and it has been a while. I guess there are no easy answers. Someone suggested that publicly behaving as though one is a Satanist might boost a rock star's image. I have thought of that. However, Jesus said that anyone...

Hello everyone. This may seem foolish to some but I am still learning...so please be patient. It has come to my attention somewhat recently that certain musicians today are flat out Satanists and some of them have made it rather obvious while others are far more subtle and deceptive in the...

I am a late participant in this thread, to say the least. I've loved The Cure for ages and you might say that I became overly obsessed and that is not healthy, especially for a Christian. I started paying attention to patterns I noticed about RS and the band and it really broke my heart...

Hi. I've had this question for quite some time and it really bothers me. I don't understand. We are told to honor our mothers and fathers. Okay. However, I've met people whose mothers and fathers were absolute monsters. People have endured outrageous and unspeakable abuse at the hands of...

Yes, thank you so much. That does fit perfectly, doesn't it? God loves us so much.

I believe that true salvation is eternally secure and that no one knows the true heart of a man but God. Only God knows for certain regarding an individual. If true salvation were not eternally secure, then what would be the point of all that Jesus accomplished on the cross? He did not die...

Hello, I am new to Christian Forums and my road as a Christian has been a long and difficult one. Please pray for my health. I have severe, debilitating depression. I was diagnosed with major depressive disorder many years ago. I recently discovered that the depression medication which I have...
