I haven't read every reply so if I'm just repeating what others have said I apologize. I know that I will probably have a response of some type when I'm around a woman who is noticeably not wearing a bra. The type and strength of my response (maybe better to say, at least initially...

Not much more to say. This genre of music has been distrusted by some Christians for as far back as I can remember. I put this here so what's being said can be heard. This music reaches people other music doesn't.

Okay... I just watched the video and I don't see anything in it that talks about not doing what God tells us to do if there are risks involved or if things look hopeless. The post I replied to seems almost directly opposite of what the video was about. But, you're right. That video does show...

I liked what was said but didn't watch the video. I generally avoid videos but I'll take a look, thanks.

Who is talking about sacrificing their families and children?

It looks like we disagree on this area. I don't believe there is anywhere in the bible where we're told do behave in a certain way, and then we find that invalidated somewhere else. I could be misunderstanding you, and if so please set me straight!, but it looks to me like you're saying if...

I hate that such an experience could happen and that it happened to you. Your post reminds all of us about how unpredictable life is and about corruption and the human heart. All the more reason the body of Christ has been set apart, not to live as the world lives. I believe you've also...

Ditto.

It looks like the issue has somehow shifted. I agree completely that nations have borders and have the right to defend them. I don't think that has anything much to do with what God has instructed us do though; I think that's a whole other matter.

I agree completely. What I'm concerned about is the possibility of choosing the wrong way when faced with difficult decisions. There will certainly be times where we're not sure what God wants us to do and we may make mistakes under those conditions. Regarding obeying what we do know God...

I was trying to talk about this from the perspective of how we, as Christians, behave. I think I'm agreeing with you when I say that has absolutely nothing to do with what the government should, or does, do. I've also never intended to throw bible verses around to support an invalid opinion...

From your response I get the impression that you aren't interested in discussing what I've said. I don't play with bovine skubulon, and that seems like an attempt to simply make me wrong. If all we're looking to do here is make each other right or wrong, that might feel really great but by...
