    how to deal with liars?

    First off I'd like to thank everyone for your quick replies! and yes you were able to paint out some clear methodologies for dealing with these situations that I had not maintained in such a clear form before (though I had used them periodically) it may sound below that I'm disagreeing, but I...

    how to deal with liars?

    I'm having trouble at work an in my personal life where the following things happen where if I don't lie I get punished. 1: at work I noticed several times now people will change my schedule over night without telling me, where I was supposed to go to work at 10 but instead they roll the whole...

    A very careful close study of abortion.

    Which is a level of interpretation agreed upon beforehand by following set rules instated at the creation of those squiggly lines. Without which we wouldn't be able to communicate and other users of the English alphabet would just see this text as random chicken scratchings. the fact we can read...

    A very careful close study of abortion.

    A very careful close study of abortion.

    Always, I just didn't notice/drowned him out for a while at first, just like most people do. but when I was told that God speaks to us I began trying to listen. From time to time I would notice random thoughts sometimes coupled with feelings that had nothing to do with what I was thinking...

    A very careful close study of abortion.

    the bible is clear that the Devil is the author of death, he is the bringer of death, sometimes God may command him to kill in a certain way or a certain time, but it is the devil that goes asking if he can kill us prior to that and the devil that does the deed.

    A very careful close study of abortion.

    Correct, this is one of the problems of man, we believe what others tell us and will fight for it until we are humbled when it is proven contrary to what is said in the truth of the word of God. you disagree, but the text does not lie. it is often mis-interpreted, but I broke down each verse in...

    A very careful close study of abortion.

    The first thing you need to do in this topic is throw out what you've heard via the mouth of man, because man leans to his own understanding. I will be exploring the bible in context and with due diligence for each word, not taking it to mean what I hope would be the case, but taking it to mean...
