    Should youth go on potentially dangerous mission trips?

    Agreed! Years ago I did some short term mission work in Hong Kong.... I was really impressed and blessed by the number of Norwegians on the mission trip. They are a wonderful blessed people.

    Should youth go on potentially dangerous mission trips?

    Hey I completely agree... I actually suggested this recently and it didn't appeal... there is something more glamorous about overseas mission... our attitude should really be one of being willing to serve... and I personally think a lot can be gained by learning to first do that serving in our...

    Doubting salvation. Plz help

    Hi Zimmer, I think if we are all honest we all struggle at times and yes even doubt God's existence... funny though that we don't doubt the existence of satan - especially when we see all the sin and evil in the world! Sometimes, our battle of belief is a battle with satan... and has to be dealt...

    I think I am still a Pagan Christian

    Hi Bluerose, Truly some people walk a very difficult path in life... and my heart feels hurt that you have endured so much... I am not sure if I would subscribe to our Heavenly Father being described as a "goddess" BUT I do know our God is a God of comfort...one to whom people of all cultures...

    Wellesley College: "The spirit of free speech is to protect the suppressed"

    " The spirit of free speech is to protect the suppressed"... is this true? I always thought that the spirit of free speech is to have the freedom to say what you like 'without, fear of suppression... However, I think the country is now heading dangerously down the pathway of suppression of the...

    I'm a former Christian who is now Muslim, how should I tell my parents?

    Sorry I completely disagree. An eternity without Christ is a serious matter. You may be able to live with your conscience by not telling him the truth, but my understanding of the Scriptures is that we have an obligation to be honest.... and I don't see any of the posts being rude.

    What Scriptures make a positive case for infant baptism?

    Hi Albion, There are certainly points where I certainly do agree with you. As I did say in my initial comments, whole household could imply that his children were younger.... but it does not say infants which I am sure you would agree with. I also agree that the scriptures do not specifically...

    I'm a former Christian who is now Muslim, how should I tell my parents?

    Not sure if I agree with you Cearbhall, when you say, "more sympathetic"... shouldn't we be more sympathetic with the parents who have lost their child who is now heading to an eternity without Christ... to condemnation? Eternity without Christ is something to be sympathetic about.

    I'm a former Christian who is now Muslim, how should I tell my parents?

    Hey Cearball, Matter or not, the Gospel is the Gospel, and the Bible clearly says, "“Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many." Matthew 7:13. This IS a Christian forum, and it is important to tell people the...

    What Scriptures make a positive case for infant baptism?

    Yes, I think you are on a limb here all on your own, if you were to hold infant baptism as a position! All the baptism accounts are adults... even when the jailer and his family when they were all baptised does not mention that there were infants involved... but it kind of does make sense that...

    What is cheating?

    I certainly think there is a deeper issue here...a deeper spiritual issue. I would look at your own possible part in this...not saying you did anything wrong, mind you... but, place the situation before God and ask Him to speak to you concerning the situation in case there is something that you...

    Is It Really Good to Do This?

    You know, Jesus said the poor will always be with us... I guess He could also have said that there will also be evil people with us too... but NO He didn't say that.... Even so, I think it is wrong theology to think that we can eliminate evil in the world thru the death penalty or thru...
