    Do Christians need to belong to a church?

    I haven't posted here in a long time and much has changed so bear with me if I break some protocol. I haven't attended an institutionalized church (congregation is the word) since November 2020. It hit me at that time just how corrupt the American church (correct word) had become. We don't...

    1 Cor 7:5 and sexual intimacy

    Oh, ok, I see what you mean. It is a blessing when we gain victory over the demons that once controlled us. If we do not know Christ we cannot know truth and it is the truth that sets us free, after all. Thank you for taking the time to humor an old man.

    1 Cor 7:5 and sexual intimacy

    I enjoyed the article. The writer's premise is sound. Sex is not owed to your spouse and it is not to be used as a weapon to bribe one spouse to give in to the other's will. Love will conquer both of these extremes. A marriage does act as a safeguard against adultery and fornication. It...

    Amos 3:3 am i getting this right?

    I would sum up this passage as "everything happens for a reason and God is behind it all" I often see those little connections where life intersects scripture. It way well be this encounter is directed by God. Be sure to act godly in everything with this person. You may either be the...

    1 Cor 7:5 and sexual intimacy

    You make 2 premises that I can't connect to scripture. To what scriptures are you referring here?

    A Dream About The Crowd

    I dreamed three times this morning of a crowd of people urging me to follow them to safety only to watch them go off to their own destruction. There is a way that seems right to people but the end is only destruction and sorrow. The road to hell is broad and easy and followed by most people...

    God's Judgment Is Righteous

    I don't believe we all know the end of this. I, too, have seen this in prophecy and the end isn't pleasant. I think most Christians believe God is going to step in and rescue us from the communists, but it is God's hand at work against us, not man's. If we do not repent (and overturning Roe...

    We Are Not Born Free

    I saw in a dream men being harassed and goaded by evil men. They had done nothing wrong to deserve the treatment and as I watched I was helpless to stop the torture or to rescue anyone from the fate that had taken them. Those being tortured did not turn to speak out against their adversaries nor...

    Communism Dream

    I saw in a dream our world, our nation, where men and women are forced to work in labor camps and some call it good and some are indifferent and some are angry. Those who call it good say, "we have everything given to us". Those who are indifferent say nothing and their faces are sad and worn...

    Whatever happened to Truth?

    Freedom of religion from scriptures..... Joshua 24: 15 And if it seem evil unto you to serve the Lord, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me...

    Return To God

    [In response to those world leaders, past or present, who believe themselves to be God] Thus sayeth the Lord. Mark 9: 34 But they held their peace: for by the way they had disputed among themselves, who should be the greatest. 35 And he sat down, and called the twelve, and saith unto...

    How one is saved.....

    The churches of Christ would tell you to hear the word, believe it, repent of your sins, confess Jesus to be the son of God and be baptized in water (immersed) and they would be correct. Some would say it is by grace, not of yourself but the gift of God and not by works (our own effort) and...

    Whatever happened to Truth?

    You nailed it. This is the destruction of western civilization. How do you think a man who drew 6 circles on the ground for his speeches and couldn't fill them beat the man who drew tens of thousands to every rally? The answer is he didn't, but whatever. Chistians, devout Christians, voted...

    Is Judaism Good?

    Hebrews 6: 4 For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost, 5 And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come, 6 If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance...
