The scriptures cannot object to themselves. Every word is true, as the Lord intended. Not as man intends. Fortunately, the Word is NOT a history book, a science book, a biology book, a math book, etc. A history book will teach you history, a science book will teach science, etc. But the...

Very interesting way of looking at that Brandon. I find Joseph and his story to be a very fascinating part of the Word. I do not know if Joseph, in the literal story, was either self reliant or proud. He had a strong connection to the Lord, and seemed to follow His will.

I was enjoying your post quite a bit. I did stumble somewhat when you mentioned “eternal punishment“. That concept does not exist in my thinking regarding the Lord. Why is this the case? Obviously I was raised to think that the Lord would punish ”bad people“ after death. Upon reaching my...

Wonderful. Read and absolutely agree.

Agreed, completely, absolutely.

Very nicely put Brad. From my own experience: I thought I knew what love is. I thought I knew what goodness is. I thought I knew what truth is. I thought like this for 65 years, until I found the Lord. Then, I eventually realized that i know nothing, and everything I thought was wrong. Today...

Speaking of ……

I can relate to your post. I started visiting forums about 6 years ago, and found myself in regular battle with many posters. Became very distressing and no fun. Since that time, I have learned that it is impossible to convince people of anything true if they are blinded by their falsities...

A life of faith without love is like sunlight without warmth - the type of light that occurs in winter, when nothing grows and everything droops and dies. I came across this comment recently. Made total sense to me, considering the struggle I’ve had over a number of years regarding religion in...
