    relationships and theology

    i may be in the wrong place, and if so, please feel free to place this where it needs to go. the girl that ive been dating dropped a bomb on me last night - she has a hard time believing that homosexuality is a sin. i explained that Gods word says that it is, but she still disagrees. my...

    True Blood

    are you deciding whats right or wrong or is it the holy spirit that lives within you? who is your authority on things of sin - God or yourself? i politely ask you this because it seems from your answer that you are your authority on this matter. shalom.

    True Blood

    recently watched an episode of this on tv and was rather surprised with the content. soft core inappropriate content, distasteful language and degrading representation of the Church. as a christian i cant see how watching this type of material is glorifying our Lord. im curious about peoples spiritual...

    How to evangelise to others in bars and clubs?

    complete and utter nonsense. if you feel compelled to reach out to drunks in bars, if this is something God has placed on your heart, you go and preach His Word. dont listen to the ones here telling you to stay out of bars. be prayerful, be courgeous and fulfill the great commission! ive...

    God's attributes?

    Can God change His mind? this is faulty logic. our knowledge of Him can change at any moment. i can read the scriptures and learn something new about Him that i didnt understand before. i can take a theology class and have my prior assumptions of Him corrected, etc, etc. certainly.

    God's attributes?

    common sense? why so? so your god fits inside a well-constructed box. i dont believe the God of creation can fit in any box.

    God's attributes?

    Omnipotent, Omniscient, Omnipresent These attributes are often attached to God. Is this because the bible tells us so or do we derive such attributes from greek philosophy? Both?

    How should we respond?

    agree completely. as frustrating as this book was to read (i wanted to throw it across the room more than a few times) i believe itd do the average christian well to read it.

    How should we respond?

    agreed on all points above, however, i did find a few things that he said true. one thing: 'but why, in any case, do we readily accept the idea that the one thing you must do it you want to please God is believe in him? whats so special about believing?' i believe he is speaking about a...
