    Answer To Prayer?

    I prayed for someone whom I dislike. She (J) had caused me alot of pain through her gossiping. Recently she was talking rather loudly about someone in public, this got back to the subject(victim) who tried to ring J to sort out the problem. J decided she was under attack and changed her phone...

    show me how to forgive

    No. Misunderstanding God, what prayers he does and does not answer caused doubts in my faith. Going to the minister for help, and hearing he washes his hands of you merely conpounded the problem. Like I said. the minister's actions led to a collapse of my faith. But as far I am concerned, my...

    If you could ask God one question, what would it be?

    Good thread! My one question would be have to be about the reason behind substitutionary atonement. How much pain did we (humans) cause that you felt it necessary to send us such a magnificent sacrifice, to hurt yourself in such a brutal manner? Mini

    Bliz, Thankyou for the website. I will have a look. I don't feel like I am in a conflict. Just that for some reason unable to forgive the man. That I see as my failing. As A kid, a wise man taught me that saying sorry means you will try not to do the same thing again. When I say sorry...

    My husband is a high functioning Aspergers person. He is having great difficulty understanding why the minister said what he did, or why it hurt me so much. If he does not understand something, he does not deal with it. He has absolutely no concept of empathy or sympathy. He said that the...

    show me how to forgive

    Some time ago, I complained to our minister about a church worker drivng children around without ensuring they were properly strapped in. The minister was not really interested. Finally we did get the rules of the minibus altered so that it complied with the law. Obviously I have witnesses to...

    If ?

    Are some people born destined to sin?

    Would that mean that God gives equal chance to all and it is the way we choose to live that makes the difference? That makes sense to me. Do you know where in matthew the parable is? Mini

    Is there anything God cannot do?

    If God can't sin, and sinning is hurting God or others, thaen why did Jesus feel foresaken? Mini
