You have posed a very good question Jude, one I have asked myself. I have been going to this church for 7 years and was baptised 2 1/2 years ago. My introductions to what this denomination believes and teaches was first presented to me by evangelists. They did an excellent job and knew their...

Are you questioning the fundamental belief statement or are you really questioning the Bible upon which the statement is based? 1Jo 5:7 For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one. Joh 1:14 And the Word was made flesh...

I have heard it preached by some of our pastors an explanation for the cause of suffering in our world. First and foremost it is caused by Satan. 1Pe 5:8 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: 1Pe 5:9 Whom...

God's law has always existed. How else could Adam and Eve sinned in the garden if there was no law? 1 John 3:4 ¶Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law. Deuteronomy 28:9 The LORD shall establish thee an holy people unto himself, as he...

1 Timothy 2:4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth. Galatians 6:7 Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. I love the end of the book of Revelation where it describes the city of God and His people are...

2 Timothy 3:15 And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. 16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in...

Why is it when Christians don't want to obey God it is legalism; When they do want to obey Him it is not? The Mosaic laws (laws of Temple worship and sacrifice) that pointed forward to the cross of Christ - the Lamb of God - yes have been nailed to the cross. But would you do away...

Eat meat - don't eat meat. When God listed clean and unclean animals He did it for a reason, not to withhold something from us, but to protect us. Would you agree that God knows what is best for us? Check out Deut. 14 these dietary laws still apply. For the record you do not need...

Yes, you must fess-up. What is really going on? :confused: Why won't the Pastor talk to you? 1Jo 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. Blessings, Lauri

Dear Manjui, I feel your pain, I have been there, in an abusive relationship and seeming to have no choices. Feeling alone, but you are not alone God is with you, He forgives you and He cares for you, He will look after you. Pour your heart and soul out to Him, call on the mercy and love of...

The Old Testament begins at the beginning of the creation of the world and mankind. It travels through approximately 4000 years of history between God and people. Not only God's children are spoken of, but also other kingdoms and nations that did not follow Him. I started in Genesis because I...

Psa 101:3 I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; it shall not cleave to me. TV is addictive, I know, it is a battle that I fight. Try not turning it on for a whole day, 2 or 3 days, try a whole week, see if you can do it. For me it is a life...

1Th 5:21 Prove all things; hold fast that which is good. 1Th 5:22 Abstain from all appearance of evil. 1Th 5:23 And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. 1Th 5:24...

The gifts of tongues was given to the disciples so that all who were present could hear the gospel message. There were many people there from other parts of the world that spoke other languages. Acts 2:4 And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as...

Acts 16:25 ¶And at midnight Paul and Silas prayed, and sang praises unto God: and the prisoners heard them. 26 And suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken: and immediately all the doors were opened, and every one's bands were loosed. 27 And the...
