    balanced view about prepping

    Hey peeps. Long time no see. I'm all for prepping. It's just intelligent to do. Look at the aftermath of Katrina, Sandy, and numerous other disasters. We are taught to save finances, why not other needs as well? I get there's a balance. Joseph prepped during seven years of abundance for seven...

    Young Earth, Old Earth, GAP or Other? Where do you Stand on the Creation Story?

    "We define" is exactly the problem. God does not need our definitions as He clearly can have an evening and a morning and call it a day without a sun.

    Young Earth, Old Earth, GAP or Other? Where do you Stand on the Creation Story?

    Nope. The Word does not need my interpretation. It stands up just fine all by itself. I would say that 'interpretation' would appear to be the biggest problem here as many are trying their best to bring other worldviews to the table. Quite frankly, this simply does not stand up to Biblical...

    Young Earth, Old Earth, GAP or Other? Where do you Stand on the Creation Story?

    The key here is "some say." I do not hold to the 'appearance of age' argument. The issue is simple that we refuse to believe the Word of God first. We walk by faith and not by sight. So some scientist claims that the earth is millions of years old? What does the Word say about that? I...

    Disparity with WoF "Founders" and Foundation Laid

    Controversy? Here? You. Can't. Be. Serious. :P "Founding Fathers." An interesting idea indeed. Rubbish when you consider the histories and who influenced who. I haven't bothered much with this idea, so I reserve comments on this. Permissive sense is quite foundational, and hinges on...

    Young Earth, Old Earth, GAP or Other? Where do you Stand on the Creation Story?

    "Sadly, many others are more than willing to try to reinterpret Christ’s plain meaning in Mark 10 because of their absolute adherence to millions and billions of years. Be praying that Christians would see through this idea of mixing secular religious ideas like millions of years with...

    Young Earth, Old Earth, GAP or Other? Where do you Stand on the Creation Story?

    Could this issue be as simple as a matter of trust? Were you there when the world was created? No. Was I? No. "THE ONLY WAY WE CAN KNOW FOR SURE HOW THE UNIVERSE AND LIFE WERE FORMED IS IF AN INFALLIBLE EYEWITNESS REVEALED TO US WHAT HAPPENED." Is there such a witness? Who was there from the...

    I've been burned! Alas you are correct my keen eyed friend! It was six. Which is not a literal six days.....But you already burned me once. LOL.

    Young Earth, Old Earth, GAP or Other? Where do you Stand on the Creation Story?

    I firmly stand within the first choice, young earth. I believe that the Earth was created by God in 7 literal days approximately 6,000 years ago, including all life on earth (this would include the rest of the universe as well, not just the earth). Any other choice simply cannot stand under...

    Personal Life Update

    Gotta say I am pretty shocked at all the Rhema 'hatin' going on here. Reminds me of two things. One from personal life, one from Scripture. First from personal life. Step kid has been making some serious mistakes lately. At 14 that is to be expected especially when he falls in with the wrong...

    Personal Life Update

    Trust in God my friend. A few years ago, I thought I had a job straight from the throne of God. I was sure it was the right one. Well, I was getting ready to call the folks up and accept the position when BAM! They called me to inform me that they gave the job to someone else. TICKED ME RIGHT...
