    A question relevant to Matthew 6

    Well, Jesus does say not to do something in order to be seen by people, right? So, if you did this in order to make yourself look good, yes you would be doing it in order to be seen by people. And so, then, do not be surprised if it backfires, since it does not have God's approval. "'He who...

    Prosperity Gospel

    In my Post #32 above I have offered some explanation of a thing or two. I would say everything in God's word is related somehow to how God desires to prosper and heal us. But it "might" not be about what humans can mean. For example > being healed by His stripes, I would say, primarily means...

    Prosperity Gospel

    But it is written, "by whose stripes you are healed" > in 1 Peter 2:24. And Jesus says that the cup of the Lord's Supper is "the new covenant in His blood > "This cup is the new covenant in My blood, which is shed for you." (in Luke 22:20) So . . . I would say Jesus shed His blood in order for...

    Prosperity Gospel

    And, meanwhile . . . while ones are preaching prosperity and health and others are busy with criticizing them . . . none of them might give us what Jesus says will happen if we leave family and things for Him > "So Jesus answered and said, 'Assuredly, I say to you, there is no one who has left...

    I do not love my enemy

    Because Jesus has told us to love our enemies, I can see that Satan has arranged things to give us an excuse not to do what Jesus does say to do. And how did Jesus handle being hated and tortured and murdered? Jesus *prayed* > "Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they do." (in...

    Hey, am I alone in this?

    Hi, Marit - welcome to Christian Forums. Yes, people can be against us and reject us. And ones might act like they accept us, so they don't look bad and they might want to use us for something; but they do not want us and there will be ways they will be sneaky to not include us in certain...

    Married to an imaginary friend

    Be ready to bear with what we might say lololol My mother got the idea that I had Asperger's. I had no idea what that was supposed to be. So, I looked up a few things on the Net. I was very surprised at how many items applied to me. And I noted . . . in my case . . . these things were against...

    Where We Got The Word Of God

    What I have is that in history there were church leaders who had Bible manuscripts in Hebrew and in Greek. And they decided which ones were God's word and put these together into a Bible, first in Hebrew and in Greek. Then there were translations into English and other languages. So, how did...

    Christian male 38 trying to get to know a 32 year old woman; is this parental behavior normal? This is my first actual dating experience

    Thank you for sharing this with us, for trusting us about this. You can use this to help you to feel for others who are in pain and sorrow. There are people who say to say nothing when we are with people in deep and major grief and pain. Just be there for them. But Jesus did say things to...

    Shall we accept AI robots to be part of our society?

    I can use artificial intelligence to help me to learn Spanish so I now can speak God's word in Spanish. And people use artificial intelligence for robots that vacuum clean their rugs. And we have our robot in the supermarket, monitoring the floor for hazards. I do not think you mean that...

    Seek the help of the wise, Some of the questions teens

    So, this is in China. Humans in "America" can be like you. You can explain yourself quite well, I would say. If Chinese is your first language, you can help people by helping to communicate between English and Chinese. And you seem able to communicate emotionally; this can help for more...

    Shall we accept AI robots to be part of our society?

    This might bring us to the pea-brain effect, then do we want regular peas or petite peas? Use it or lose it, right?

    Shall we accept AI robots to be part of our society?

    No . . . though you might avoid a scandal or two. But I need personal sharing with other humans, and Jesus says for us to love one another. So, we have our part to do, in any case. But yes some number of pastors are building and financial administrators who can preach. So, getting the...

    Shall we accept AI robots to be part of our society?

    How much are they going to cost? That will have something to do with it. We can be our own robots, preprogrammed by whoever has gotten us to trust them. It might be good not to let things get too easy. I can see the brain development over some years > smaller and smaller brains, until you have...

    Why cant we just trust in Gods sovereignty and sit back?

    If you have taken good care of your child so he or she has all needs met . . . why is it necessary for your child to have activities which have nothing to do with making money, getting food, and paying bills? The child needs wholesome activities with mature people who know how to love . . . so...

    Queensland prepared to jail 10 year olds for life

    Yeah, basically I would try to evaluate each person. Whatever caused the child to kill is possibly habitual. And what the child does to other people can be very cruel, perhaps more cruel than what might happen to the child in jail. So, we need to consider the rights of the child plus the...

    Should Christians be loving peacemakers, or hateful dividers?

    In Romans 5:9 we have, "we shall be saved from wrath through Him." So, I can see this means that every one of us has been in danger of God's wrath. Every one of us has needed Jesus to save us from God's wrath. And in Ephesians 2:3 we have > "we all once conducted ourselves in the lusts of our...
