    #%@! Cursing

    Used liberally they aren't really morally wrong. Many of these words were changed in meaning over the years, and several now have dual meaning. Everyone has their own set, so it's hard to even discern which ones you're not supposed to say anymore. Everything seems to have a double meaning now a...

    Are Video Games Christian?

    So it's ok for you to do it until everyone agrees with you? I never said or even argued against whether living a Christian life was a sin. And you just agreed with my position. So what's the problem? God calls people to do many different things. Some of which has more down time than others. Some...

    Are Video Games Christian?

    If you practice what you preach then I don't really understand how I could be having this discussion with you on the internet, since you did speak against that as well. The real reasoning should be, if you were playing a game, and someone told you they needed your help, would you stop and...

    You want answers? Good me too....

    Short stories, a few poems, sermon outlines, opinion articles for blog sites. Basically whatever I enjoy, or feel strongly enough about to warrant me taking the time to write about. The sermons are a preparation at the moment for when I finally get in full time to the ministry. I like to be...

    Are Video Games Christian?

    I too live in America, and I'm not saying that a lot of people are selfish. Many people only care about themselves. It's a cold fact of life. And some don't really know how to help others but they try. I'm saying that's it's not wrong to take some time for yourself. People in Acts did sell...

    Scared...

    Fear is a natural emotion while dealing with a situation like this. I have dealt with depression and anxiety issues for years. From experience I can tell you there is no easy way around it. There is no quick fix for it. While fear, and pain isn't of God, feeling them is of life. It's ok to be...

    can a christian listen to electronica music?

    As long as it doesn't lead you to do drugs it's fine. Any type of music can ultimately be linked to something harmful for certain people. It's just another genre, and if it doesn't effect your faith, or cause you to fall into harmful actions, then it doesn't matter what you choose to listen to.

    Advice Please

    That's something that would best be discussed with a doctor. As for the food, I would suggest fish, and whole grain foods. Those are the only things I have personally heard of that help, although I don't know how much.

    Are Video Games Christian?

    What does video games coming up have to do with whether or not people are helping others? It's not a question of being selfish, it's a question of whether it's ok for Christians to play them. At the heart of the issue no, but as it was already mentioned, it only becomes a problem if you become...

    You want answers? Good me too....

    I like to read/study, play video games, although I don't get to do the latter as much anymore. I'm also a huge Pro Wrestling fan. I actually became a pro wrestler when I was 17. Also I write quite a bit lately when I have down time. I had gotten out of it for a long while, but it came back...

    Are Video Games Christian?

    Yes I agree Jesus helped ALOT of people. As do some others, they help with what they can. Entertaining yourself does not mean you're just doing what entertains you. For example I can only speak for myself, but I do a lot of things for charity, and my church. Sometimes I have free time, and...

    are certain games spiritually harmful?

    That is a truly tough question. And that is one that every individual must make for themselves. If you feel as though you shouldn't be playing a certain game, then don't play it. If you don't have a problem with it, and you don't get a conviction one way or the other, then it's ok. I've heard a...

    Are Video Games Christian?

    Video games are not selfish, nor are they bad, in moderation, much like many other things in life. Jesus himself was said to have gone to parties. The days form of entertainment. They're a great way to relax and unwind, I haven't been able to play any for a while just because I don't have the...

    Sentence Game

    Donnie Darko was Taken to a Nightmare Before Christmas to prevent him from being Moonstruck by The Blob. That made very little sense. But I tried.

    Mixed Martial Arts

    I'm actually a fan of Shogun Rua personally. And used to be a fan of Tim Sylvia, until I reached the age of reason of course.
